GH–
Lost in total viewers 108,000 ..

Ask me if I am surprised…

More scenes with Jason and Sam that last longer than 30 seconds. Get on with the boring Dr. Finn character cause it’s dragging on too long and getting tiresome. Alexis and Julian have had some good scenes that have kept me watching.

Hardly a surprise. We had a week full of mob stories, of strong women being weak (Anna & Alexis) and too much Jason and Sam–who remain without chemistry.

Noticed the Becky return was 2nd highest rated of the week.

I’ve been watching GH on and off for more than 30 years and watching Y&R for 4 months–and it’s easy to understand why one is up and the other is sinking.

GH is a disgusting mess, there is not one story I am invested in. I guess the only reason I still watch is because I have invested 38 years of my life in it. I get the impression ABC-Disney wants us to hate the show so that no one will balk when they finally cancel it.

With GH going down OMG how can that be?It was very very heavily porno Jasam…Umm I guess they are NOT what the viewers wants ,,,And YES some says well its not just about 1 couple,those who said that always want to slap each other on the back if ratings are up..I guess some want it both ways…..GIVE THE FANS WANT WILL BRING IN THE RATINGS or GH was cancel out…MAYBE that is what ABC wants….

I’m wondering. Even though comments seem to have viewer fatigue with the same cast of character’s love triangles, unfaithfulness, betrayal, baby stories, as their bedrock, and Victor never being knocked off his perch on Y&R and B&B, they generally seem to confirm to the soap formula established over the years.

GH has gone with the Corrinthos family and crime being a major story element, and have downplayed, or certainly not bolstered or populated the legacy families. And if anything seem to bringing in ABC’s nighttime edginess to daytime .

Maybe this is why GH ratings don’t match the other two…it’s not the actors who are great, but that we want more romance and adventure in the afternoon, not murder and crime with no consequences. At least Victor is in jail for the time being.

I hope Days dont have Ciara falling for Chad-that will loose viewers…GH is a mess-a few weeks ago we seen Laura talking to Kevin then she disappeared-what happened to her story?…i hate when you get a little story brewing then it disappears-Laura’s story should be front and center at the moment-not tossed aside so the show can introduce newbies and give them full attention!!!

I’m not suprised with GH numbers. In my opinion the show has turned back into the Sunny/Carly show. While I love these characters, it’s not good when other characters are sacrificed to make them look good. Plus they had the hottest couple in daytime (Julexis) and they are tearing them apart. Don’t think a Julian and Nina paring will help,, which I fear is going to happen and the character of Alexis will go by the waste side and not be seen for months. Just like before when all the writers and producers had to be changed. Same old same old General Hospital!!!!!

Y&R storylines are interesting. But I FF through the Hillary/Devon/Neil. I FF through Stitch/Evil Max plot. I watch the Sharon/Nick & Adam/Chelsie story lines.
The Billy Boy recast is a fail. When he comes on I wonder WTF is that until someone says Billy.

Not surprised by the drop of ratings on GH! Liz Webber/Liason haters can’t blame this on her because Becky Herbst was on hiatus due to contract negotiations! FYI, not all viewers are interested in watching the JaScum show!

I love GH but enough if Anna whining and losing control. The psychologist has an agenda also boring. Sam and Jason, Maxie and Lulu with Nathan and Dante storylines are great. Carly and Sonny are my favorite couple. Michael needs to get over Sabrina….she chose Carlo – let her stay missing. Poor Alexis has been turned into her nightmare – enabler, whining, desperate to hang on to that creep Julian. I hope he’s locked up soon. Give Alexis back her balls. Molly and Christina both need new love interests. Molly and her bf have no chemistry. They ruined the Hayden/Nicholas storyline. I would like to see Hayden with hunky Dr. Munro. And Nick and Liz replay.

Days is a total disgrace! Ken Corday should be ashamed of what he’s done to his parents’ show! Higley is a terrible writer and I’m very disappointed in some of the vets who continue with this show when it has become so disrespectful and total garbage. I and many others I know have quit watching because it’s a shell of what it used to be. In all honesty (and it pains me greatly to say this), but I’d rather see it get cancelled and go out with some dignity than continue down this twisted path of destruction.

Stop the jasam reunion cause it sucks
and GH ratings will get better!
JaSam have no chemistry!

This fake and forced pairing of Jasam are killing GH , It is making the show unwatchable and their sex scenes are so boring. I found myself cheering for the rooster in the barn,

What?! GH down in ratings?! Quelle surprise! As a “fan” who’s watched for more than 30 years, I saw the destruction coming the minute Craptini wanted to make it OLTL 2.0! Even bringing in characters/actors from said show! Or taking Y/R knock offs as a F you to JFP! Now what we have are mob centric shows (although I LOVE Mo & LW as actors) the Keystone Cops (Dathan) and the Vapid Valley Girls (MaxiLu) Even Michael has been dumbed waaaayyy down! Remember the rape reveal?! That was F’in Shakespeare compared to the Sakey crap! And where the HELL is GF?! She only rears her head once in awhile to give meaningless advice to her idiot children! And as for her children, I think TC is a PHENOMENAL actor but lately he’s been “phoning it in!” And as much as I like RB as an actress, she’s not RELATED to anyone on the show, no anchor except Nik! And what about the other phenomenal actors like BH or JE?! Where the hell are they?! Sorry, I like BM & KeMo but honestly can’t watch the JaSam show!
The late soap blogger RavensBeauty predicted ALL of this before Her untimely death-how ABC/Disney doesn’t give a flying F about GH and specifically brought in Craptini to let it tank! I think the ONLY reason it’s on life support is because they can’t find anything to replace it!

Funny how her words are now ringing true… And what a sad state of affairs for a show I’ve loved for over 30 years but no longer watch on a daily basis! RIP GH!

gee Mobs are us reigns again. Who’d a thunk it. Anna shoots someone in cold blood, Julian hugs and stabs someone, The victim is the bad guy ??? Let me know when there is some good guys . Alexis is getting exactly what she deserves. She has been a mob mouthpiece for years getting the murderers off, now the chickens have come home to roost. Feel for her never. maybe she will be lucky and when she falls off her high horse she will land on her head and something will click. Didn’t she also kill the boy who hit her daughter? This is entertainment, ? Love in the afternoon. Love of murder and violence you mean. I have stopped watching.

There is nothing wrong with what is in front of the camera. It is good. It is better than it has been in a long time. Sustained good is what will bring back the audience that lost patience with the hit and miss of the previous two writing regimes.

I – just, HOPE – that the reason DAYS of OUR Lives… is seeing a resurge … in viewership

is ALL because of thee main man… Daniel Cosgrove is back on the scene

i’m still in love

who didn’t love the intensity between Rafe and Aiden… over Hope

Wowza

Actually Days has been getting worse! Too many new characters few care about. Constant rudeness by Kayla toward a man who confessed to murder he did not commit to protect his son. Propping Fynn as the new Dr Tan (who we so wanted to see leave) so no kudos here! Rafe is considered heroic for framiing a man for murder while Steve is well treated like dirt. Sadly the writers cheapen history to promote the wrong. Steve met Ava after he lost his memories, was tortured. But this came after dying for a Brady not an adventure. Ava was insane. Steve is not responsible for Ava. If he is well blame Kayla for running a hosp with a terrible lab with no security! Blame the Brady’s for Steve’s loss of 16 years it was their war more than Steve’s. But no we only blame a man who despite his failings and flaws was visibly trying pretty hard.

not surprised about GH. it’s become too mob oriented. Sonny,Carly,Jasam is what almost killed the show last time. i can’t believe they’ve gone back to this. new Billy is really boring

The soaps always have up and down weeks, but I love GH. It’s had its good and bad stories over the years, but I think its been very gripping lately with some great acting! I’m looking forward to some comic relief soon with the return of Lynn Herring’s Lucy. I also think ABC learned its lesson with the cancellation of AMC and OLTL under the previous regime. They will hold on to their last soap. Its ratings are still respectable as well.

GH will sadly become GH again with all the boringness of the mob and the spencers making cookies and all the other snoozefest ingredients that made it the lowest rated abc show at time of cancellations . Gone are Olbrecht and Carlos and the great Carlivati characters. Gone is all remnants of OLTL. Gone is the audience

Love Jasam. Hate whining Anna get over it already. Breaking into hospital interrupting last rights. Sickening. Loved Carlos at the end and getting stabbed. Hate all the dropped unfinished stories stories that go forever. Hate Jordan. Need Mac back in the job. Get rid of this D.A.

I want GH to stop making characters so despicable and then trying to redeem them. I want them to treat Sonny as the criminal he is, not try to convince us that he is a loving, family man. I want to see well-written drama that does not include back from the dead, mobsters and people spewing blood in the hospital and a heroine trying to keep him from having last rites. There is so much drama that can be done without violent or old-school silly soap staples like baby-swapping. Hire new writers, not the same old ones. Have them write stories like they do on Greys. Finally, stop using wonderful actors so sparingly. I want to see Maura W., Roger H., Rebecca H., Kathleen G. and Jane Elliott more and in stories that showcase their amazing talent.

I watched GH before Y&R last week. GH is garbage BUT the actors are great! Y&R is horrible BUT CBS is behind them and they have the two strongest soaps. GH needs new writers. I gave the two women some time. They failed to make the show less violent and introduce love stories. They MUCKED up the whole Jason memory story which now is WORSE than the Fluke story and they let a legend like Genie sit in a restaurant with Doc for THREE weeks now with NO follow-up! LAZY! GH, I would hire Tristan Rogers and Jack Wagner full time. Wally Kurth, full time! DONT bring back Sabrina, send Michael away and keep Morgan off the show for a bit. Concentrate on the hospital, the Q’s and also, kill off Julian, he is scum! Sonny is no angel but he and his family are important to the show. Alexis can and should move on!

There are fans who watch the show regardless of how bad it becomes. GH will always have ratings, just not good ratings. I have to agree that if FV is still pimping 1.6 by retweeting their love, it’s time for fans to go quiet. There is no buzz when folks are ambivalent. There are Niz and Friz fans out there, as well as Becky fans who will give her some buzz. But honestly, I think that they have severely damaged the Liason fanbase. I do believe that even if they put Liason together again, many will not return to watch. They’ve done too much damage. They did the same with SB’s Jason. They damaged the character way too much. Then they brought in BM and they had a chance to make a real go of Jason being someone new. They have screwed that up as well. To many, this Jason is even worse than the one who went in the harbor. It will be interesting to see if this set of IIC will still have jobs. They are about to kill off Lucas. Lucas has a much more deeply rooted history than ho. He was a child on the show, Bobbie fought to keep him from Julian and Cheryl Stansbury. Even tho they didn’t use the character much during his lifetime, it frosts me when they bring in new characters like Carly, Sonny or ho who have no connection to the screen, and then write them as the center of all goings on and all families, just to ignore who is already on screen with long histories. I get that all of these characters have been on the show for a decade and a half. It still doesn’t give them legacy status in my book. They are the reason I no longer watch the show. They are also going to implode Julexis, and possibly take WDV off screen. I don’t care if they kill off Julian, and have him take his sister and children with him. They have almost no romance on this show, which is a problem that they claimed they’d address and so far have not. They will lose more viewers, tho will the ratings still look as bad this summer in comparison to last summer? This I don’t know. They fired Ron for bad ratings which Jelly have matched. Once word of RC’s firing was out, they still lost viewers with his stories over the summer. Let’s see if they give Jelly a longer shot at correcting things. I just don’t think they have it in them to right this ship at this point in time. I’m betting with the rumors that WDV, RC, and LLC are out, that they’ll go back to pairing Alexis and Ned. It will also be interesting to see if Billy resigns. For all we know, FV is telling folks that 1.6 are the story because BM isn’t staying and there’s no sense in putting him in another pairing if he’s leaving.… Read more »

From what I’ve read so far noone has mentioned the senseless addition of what is obviously supposed to be the new version of Amy Vining, who was GHs busy -body nurse stepsister .
