  1. Better late than never. Bad for GH…but it's barely behind AMC for fourth place. Still ahead of ATWT and OLTL. ATWT just won't die. Will anyone pick it up? And I just wanna say I'm a male fan that's been watching since Franco debut on Nov 20th 2009. I like the show and the acting, but the writing could be better.

  2. cath

    On GH they were leading up to the abused teenage brat blaming an innocent person for her beating instead of her nasty boyfriend who was the real abuser. No wonder people are not watching. The writing on GH is frequently awful and idiotic but this takes the prize. When the ratings indicate that this is the number one show in the teenage girl demographic the writers have shown a huge insensitivity to the abuse problem. They could have had the girl claim to not know the abuser to “protect” the horrible boyfriend but they HAD HER LIE instead. From reading comments on the actual ABC site almost no one likes this story. They better switch gears soon.

  3. theghost99

    Yeah. Posters on imdb aren't liking this either. I wish this storyline was better.

  7. shemTV

    Y&R has been very consistent in the ratings but the storyline has been very boring lately.

  8. timsdale4ever

    Good to see ATWT not completely on the bottom. I would just die if this once mighty show somehow managed to climb consistently into the top half and stay there by September. Too funny…. On a separate note, does anyone have the ratings for whatever airs on NBC opposite ATWT and GIGI'S LIFE TO LIVE? I'm sure it's a different show in whatever market you happen to be in, but I'm curious on what that show(s) draw each day — surely it can't be more than the 2 soaps.
