33
Days is the only soap worth watching. GH deserves to be in last place because it’s terrible
Totally agree Robert.
HARD KNOCKS : @Shelly AND Chris ; w/ Frank Valentini
I stand by my posts; General Hospital sucks
until you WRITE and FEATURE – less IS more – w/ Sonny and Carly… will the net gains be
give an EFFIN break . REALLY Frank ? you are that daft
AFFIRMATION
Yeah, this is just one week… yet it was thee week… Christmas holidays for TUNE IN. about the only thing that was worth remembering… was the repeat epi from 2005. 2005 where we got to see the oh so sublime MEN @work. even Rebecca Herbst couldnt’ 100% focus… as she looked near unhinged with GREG VAUGHAN LOOKS so gorgeous… just the hottest PLUS we got to see Ingo Rademacher…. !!!!! WOW those eyes have a life of their own. THE TREAT : dag! Jaclyn Zeman was HOT .. she still is … a top draw… I love Bobbie to bits.… Read more »
the point is; no one recognizes @GH production … using Sonny and Carly to trap 18-49 women.. this is already in the pandemic stage… no 18 to 49 help on the way it’s bad enough the first thing they know… this is a mobster family.. they are both old.. their kids are “boring” WHAT DO WE DO NOW that doesn’t trap 18-49 year old women STOP with the dullard.. you troupe out with so much WHY would any one tune in to this.. yes, long time viewers are waiting.. but this the desired demographic will not tune in to this…… Read more »
Climbing the charts – ON – any given week… the fluctuation will be
oh it’s with relish to see GH fall flat… thanks to Frank Valentini
WHAT GETS ME : 3. DAYS 2,412,000 (+196,000/-85,000) “from this time a year ago”
ALL the other 3 shows are at or near a 1/2 million viewers LESS; whereas @DAYs with -85,000
exemplary complimentary pat on the back… salute cheer Ron Carlivati.
Ron my man… my creed to you… WALK THE WALK
showcase and feature “your” TEAM give them a partay
Agree Patrick, Ron has brought Days back to must-see-TV!
I give props to Ron, the fantastic cast and production team for a jam-packed show every day. I have to watch on my DVR after work and when I think the show must soon be over, I look at the timing and often see that only 16-20 minutes have gone by. They make every minute mean something and I think that’s why they’re on the rise. Good on them! I’ve watched DOOL since I was in kindergarten and remember a close-up on Francis Reed as my first soap memory. Hope to have many more memories for years to come.
“I” swear to you : I’ve thought the same thing
^^^ the whole post is read… just gavel
“…when I think the show must soon be over, I look at the timing and often see that only 16-20 minutes have gone by. They make every minute mean something and I think that’s why they’re on the rise”
@DAYS of OUR Lives; FEATURES
And they have so many characters in an episode, often you’ll see a character pop in the middle or the end of an episode. It might have to do with how they tape but it’s great.
It is good that GH fell to the bottom.
That happening should entice ABC to clean house and bring in new writers and producers.
or- They could let it fail til gone.
I watched 10 minutes of GH last night and tuned out.
I was too bored to sit through the rest of it and didn’t want to waste my time.
GH is too lackluster/stale/dull/boring to waste time on it, and that is a shame.
“Y & R” is a complete waste of time thanks to Mal “Canned like a Tuna” Young – abysmal storytelling all-around!! I cannot wait until Josh Griffith’s material starts airing and Mal Young’s “Y & R” goes to the wayside along with his career!!!
“Days” is now my new serialized daytime drama to watch!!!
@ Disney / ABC / General Hospital : @ DAYS of OUR Lives – N – @ Young and the Restless
have made and / are making changes… all within the last 2 years and reap the reward
General Hospital is stymied
General Hospital is LOSING w/Sonny and Carly; LOSING w/Sam and Jason; Losing w/Michael Franco Finn Peter
WHY ??? are you stuck with Frank Valentini ? Why not fire Shelly and Chris ?
Wonderful news, bravo to Days for the ratings going up. We need Vivian Alamain and her sidekick Ivan to come back to Days. They are hilarious. I miss my madam Vivian. Also bring back Anna Dimera and Bo Brady. Amen.
If only they could get Peter Reckell to return as Bo Brady!
I agree bring back Vivian and Ivan ,Days could use some laughs.
Days is must watch every day i agree about gh it should be last and bold better do something fast wayne is not cutting it
I’m pleased with DOOL, they have my attention. I appreciate the Y&R getting rid of Mal Young and can hardly wait for Josh Griffith and Anthony (Tony) Morina’s material to air. The Bold and The Beautiful is unbearable to watch, I recently began to FF now I can get through it in less than 5 min. It is the same stories, wash, rinse and repeat. Can Brad Bell come up with nothing more than Hope/Liam/Steffy or Bill/Brooke/Ridge triangles ad nauseam? One, two, maybe three occasions per year this show will write a new story focusing on other characters that allow… Read more »
GH is on its last leg, I see GH being cancelled next year. I quit watching 2 years ago. Days is on fire, thanks to Ron. Days is the soap to watch, ratings have gone up, and Days is here to stay.
It’s about time Days of Our Lives returns to number three, because it is miles more entertaining than General Hospital.
Amen to this!
Days deserves all the praise its getting lately! From the renewal to the ratings boost! The show has the best cast new and vets! Its nonstop plot development, cliffhangers everday cantmiss! It boogles my mind how large the Salem cast is yet they all have a storyline some major or minor! The writers are on overdrive and the cast give it their all! Kudos and keep it going! My only wish in 2019 is a arc for my fave 90s supercouples Carrie/ Austin and Belle/ShawnD( the original) ! Days has been so fun returning faves im getting a lil greedy!… Read more »
I can’t wait for another Roman family reunion with Carrie AND Anna. this should be where they start with a solid much loved trio. MUCH LOVED. @Ron Carlivati, Sir – Christie Clark last visit was va va voom all decked out looking as sexy as all get out. this lady has sensuality ooze. Rafe NEEDS MUST HAVE a solid sexual relationship… Carrie can still carry a child. FLESH OUT. GET sexy back. Roman and Anna . best stuff … To see Roman dancing cause he’s getting some, brings on the charm, his comedic to nurture to dramatic effect spills cause… Read more »
Is Carrie supposed to return? I thought she was, she should at least be on for the 55th anniversary in late Augst/early September. I know she couldn’t make it for the past one since she and her family were traveling the world (great for them!)
I always loved Carrie and want her back on the show!
Carrie will be back for the Memorial of Caroline Brady. But the Actress that play’s Carrie now lives in London with her family. So she said she still loves to come back to Days when it can be worked out. But not so easy anymore being she lives so far away.
Agree Damien, Days is on fire and has been since Ron C. took over as head writer a year and a half ago. Amazing writing, directing, acting/actors, crew, etc!
Congratulations and well deserved Days!
Days has been on fire ever since Ron C. took over a year and a half ago. Well Ron, the writing team, the cast and the crew! So glad the show was renewed for another year, it really is the best show.
I’m looking forward to the Caroline Brady memorial/funeral. I’m ready to have that breakdown lol. And imagine what Ron will have and who he’ll bring back for the 55th anniversary episodes!
Hey this old fart of 66 loves Days see even us old folks love Days.I don’t miss an episode ever.I do miss Marci though. So does my best friend. Kate is a good actress we just like Marci better.Leo is a riot. Just look at some of his outfits.Days needs a little bit more humor .Bring back Vivian.
I’m loving Days. However, I like General Hospital for the Ryan Chamberlain story; I’m glad that Victor’s back on Y.& R.(He makes it much better)
Congrats to Days , the cast & writing team, well deserved and well written story telling.I wish Y&R & GH were as good, sadly the writing on Y&R & GH is terrible , both soaps have a great long running characters but very poor storytelling
I dont put a lot of faith in these polls since Y&R is so bad and STILL #1? GH is bad but more watchable right now than Y&R! CBS supports their soaps a bit more so maybe thats why they stay on top. Where I live, that god awful Strahan show is the lead for GH! PUKE!
Y&R > GH
Good for Days. The show is really good and glad more people are watching.
