That is good..
Nonetheless;
I do not care about the numbers..
I care about me.. my enjoyment, pleasure watching GH
If GH had only 2 viewers I would be one of them (Harry the other) until either I or GH dies 🙂

Long Live the #1 soap General Hospital!!!!!

Days ratings are horrible. The show is so boring. I think Days may be the next soap to be cancelled.

Days has all their stories pumped and primed ready to go, but for last couple of weeks it seems to be stalling the progression of these stories to a snail’s pace. Hopefully now that September has rolled around they will let loose and fur will fly with the return of Stefano and Chad– John coming out his coma—Clyde actually doing some damage other than smiling and acting like a country bumpkin. For me the last couple of weeks on Days was like waiting for a pot of water to boil— you know it will boil, you know you can’t cook until it does– so come on already, boil dammit boil. LOL

DAYS numbers would be way higher if Nielsen households stopped watching on YouTube, which does not count. Any given episode uploaded on YouTube brings 3 times the viewers than that of Y&R! If you’re a Nielsen viewer, stop watching on YouTube!!!

Glad for the GH numbers. Honestly, the only think I liked for the week for Sonny & Carly.

I love Days .They have the best storytelling by far. I agree, it’s a little bit slow right now as they hase out characters, but I think it’s the most interesting.

People need to start watching Days. If one network goes soap operaless they all will. Not to mention Days is the most entertaining of all the shows that are left

I’m so excited for GH they are doing well and is the best thing ever happened to them I’ve been watching this show since I was 12 years old ever ever gets cancelled I refuse to watch ABC ever againit’s a beautiful thing way go GH and I love all the actors are in the show the only one is got to go is Levi

Day’s does need to move the storylines a little faster. I hope Kristen does not get a free pass for raping Eric.

The ratings or following them seems so pointless, its the same results all the time for the most part, with Y&R and BB, then GH and then DOOL, nothing really drastic happens to change those numbers no matter what, its not like the Today show making the monumental mistake of firing Anne curry and loosing their #1 standing to GMA, now that was juicy and it finally happened, and we had our villain (matt Laur) to blame, and over @GMA a survivor to cheer on(Robin Roberts), where are all those defectors that supposedly left Y&R when the evil JFP fired and let go of Michael Muhney and Billy Miller? so no matter what, its going to take who knows what for either Y&R to loose over 2 million viewer or for the other 3 to gain 2 million viewers for the ranking to change.

Days is a great show, way better than GH which I can only stomach once a week especially watching nina ad nauseum.

Love my GH 🙂

Interesting you didn’t mention the gay s/l. I’ve been enjoying GH. I’m happy for them.

.numbers don’t mean crap, it’s only numbers eh ..

General Hospital is the #1 soap ..

Days of Our Lives is #2 ..

B&B is # 3

Y&R is #4 ..

Now, those numbers are correct and honest .. 🙂
and the only numbers that count in my world! .. Keeping it simple …

GH has been really good with the drama between Carly and Sonny and Franco and Ava and Sonny keep the show going all the time. Nina is a good addition and makes me wonder if she plans on stealing Ava’s baby. You’ve gotta have that story line in every soap! It will be interesting to see what is in store with the return of Jason.

Glad to hear that! GH is number 1 in my heart! I’m a fan of Days as well. I do not think that YouTube is the problem. My reason being is because during their hour they are battling Y&R and B&B. Y&R is 12:30 – 1:30pm (depends on where you live.) B&B is 1:30-2:00 days 1:00 -2:00 pm. I only watch on YouTube if I have a doctor appointment and will miss Days. Other than that I catch it when it airs! I think
It’s their time slot and story, Their story’s are lacking right now. they will heat up. They always heat up around this time!

Congrats to GH on their ratings rise-they have been on fire!!
But Michael, how could you neglect to mention Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) & Nathan ( Ryan Paevy) who were a HUGE part of the Maxie/ Levi/ Lulu Wedding/Kidnapping story?

I am glued to my set for Lante & Naxi ! I love the adventure and can’t wait for more!!!

I said this last week and I will say it again since we are talking about ratings. GH will overtake Y&R in 2015 with the addition of Billy Miller. He is talented and he reminds me of Anthony Geary back in the 80’s, you just cannot take your eyes off this guy. He just demands your attention.

I love General Hospital. Have been a fan since the early 80’s. My favorite supercouples were Frisco and Felicia and Sonny and Brenda. I have to say, I can not take the on-slaught of Kristen Alderson anymore. Kiki Jerome is like nails on a chalkboard for me. The actress can hardly hold a scene, nevermind a moving, interesting, or real storyline. Please, let’s just end this debaucle. Having Kiki show up in random scenes-like her overhearing about Sonny and Carly’s one-nighter-only gives her more air-time and that is too precious to waste. I just can’t take it. I wish that the writers would focus on the core characters, the returned veterans, the historic families. Bring back more of the Q’s. Focus more on love stories. Friendships. Cliff-hanger Fridays. Let’s cut the on-slaught of the recurring cast members. The cast is too big. Storylines and focus get lost in the shuffle.

Soap fans online remind me so much of Lady Gaga vs Madonna fans!
