strong week for the soaps. Impressed with B&B. Next week we’ll see how Ej’s death on Days did ,and Phyllis’s return at the Shick wedding on Y&R did

All soaps are picking up as stories build up for November sweeps– in general the best months for soaps are October, November, February, April and May– so for the next few weeks all soaps should be picking up in the ratings as compared to the summer when soaps tend to go a bit flat. Looking forward to some good entertainment ahead on every show in the weeks to come until the holiday season when once again stories tend to level off as we start preparing for Christmas.

I believe that Y&R has definitely heated up and GH is beginning to heat up slowly

I’m gonna start watching gh with billy miller

All My Soaps had an interesting week…E.J.s and eventually Samis departure might change things for Days in the weeks ahead and itll be interesting to see which direction things go…itll also be interesting to see what happens when Melissa Archer joins Days later this year…Billy Millers did a fine job in those hospital scenes…im certain his joining the show and improved writing helped GH…cant wait next week for my soaps…got to see some episodes of ‘The Doctors’ and i loved it…just wish it was on a major cable channel…Liz Hubbard and the rest were as great as i rembered and i loved seeing Dr.Karen Werner again…The Doctors at this time was written by Rita Laken who helped save that show from cancellation…Britains Coronation Street with Peters trial for the murder of lover/babysitter Tina…a crime he did not do…looks pretty exciting…love the realism of this show…heres a little soap history: back in the mid 60s NBC was considering cancelling all three of its soaps…Days, The Doctors, and Another World…but new writers at all three soaps…Bill Bell at Days, Rita Lakin at The Doctors, and Agnes Nixon at AW brought up their soap ratings and saved those soaps from cancellation…thought some would like my ‘Blast From The Past’ daytime news…lol

GH IS THE BEST SOAP ON TV!!!! SO HAPPY ABOUT THE ARRIVAL OF BILLY MILLER ON THE SHOW!!!! CAN’T WAIT FOR MONDAY’S EPISODE WHEN THEY SHOW HIS HANDSOME FACE!!!!! :):):):):):):):):)

That is great news, that the ratings are up. General Hospital and the Young and The Restless is on fire now. I am enjoying Gina Tagnoni as the new Phyllis Summers, Gina is a terrific actress and honestly I forgot about Michelle Stafford in the role of Phyllis. Gina has got be hooked again on the Young and The Restless. I smell another emmy for Gina in the future or sooner , maybe next year. I loved watching Gina, on guiding Light as Dinah Marler. She won 2 daytime emmys on Guiding LIght as Dinah Marler. General hospital is also on fire, love Nathan and Maxie. They are hot together. Julian and Alexis are hot too.

I think Y&R and GH are going to explode with Phyllis and Adam on Y&R and Billy Miller on GH. I love all the soaps, except Days.

I thought E.J. and Sami were the two best people on the show. I think the show will lose some of its fun and glamour without them. I also think some viewers will leave as well.

Loving GH, with nathan/maxie, alexis/julian,sam/patrick,elizabeth/nujason,carly/sonny,nina/franco,morgan/ava, and the list goes and goes.. Cannot wait for todays episode 😉 love my GH!!

I wonder how the Nielsen glitch will affect the GH ratings. Haven’t seen the adjusted numbers for daytime yet.

“GH” has considerably upped its game over the past month….between the gripping C-C action and added/returning talents of Billy Miller, Donna Mills and Sebastian Roche’, we have been treated to some top-notch plotlines and performances. Jerry was totally sublime yesterday holding court in that Amsterdam cafe’ surrounded by Tracy, “Sweet Sam” and Patrick. (Loved the tongue-in-cheek nod to SR’s vampire role in “The Originals!”) Somehow I just sensed last Friday when that door opened that “Jacks was back”….actually made me think “FLuke Who”…. cares?” That farce has gone on for so long, I’m almost past it….not the showrunners’ fault,, of course, what with AG’s ails, but it has nearly been milked beyond imagination and interest at this point. (Especially if the misanthropic miscreant is exposed to be the long-expected Bill Eckert or the latest hot pick of (Not Really A) Lord Ashton….the latter would be quite a letdown, and make me wonder if he were merely a last minute revision due to Geary’s continued lack of availability…..although that is no slam on Hugo Napier or his character….glad to have him back in the mix!)

Shay, why did God bless you with the gift of glib and not the rest of us? ( and i mean that as the utmost compliment) . I had no clue who Julia Wainwright was, so I had to research her….you’re just too much…too funny. Should have guessed it was your second favorite soap star. Oh, you don’t like the word ‘star’ being used? How about ‘performer?’ Take that any way you wish, Shay. Yes? LOL.
You know, Shay, I must agree with you about Tracy…..never mind coming from the Pepsi generation, the 60’s, but she is supposedly a well-traveled entrepreneure (feminine with an ‘e’ at the end) ; belonging to a distinguished, world-famous company, yes?
One of my grandmothers is Dutch and still has family in the Netherlands. Everyone knows about the cafés, as you so eloquently indicated…..how could Tracy be so naive?
