Days ratings are awful but you know what i think they will get renewed over Christmas you know they there be a big bump for all the soaps the holidays nearly always soaps go up big time. Say a few hundred thousand viewers so say Days is around 2.5 million viewers and demos increase as well it won't look so bad. I think NBC renewed Days in Jan 2013 with them been around 2.5 million for another year although demos were better back then they are now so its not all doom and gloom for Days.

DAYS Monday: 1.76/2,382,000 Tuesday: 1.68/2,241,000 Wednesday: 1.60/2,120,000 Thursday: 1.76/2,331,000 Friday: 1.74/2,343,000
I like those numbers for the end of the week. Not sure what happened on Wednesday, it was the lowest day of the week for CBS soaps as well.

Since i started watching Days they always be no 1 never have they been toppled and you see their ratings so far ahead of the rest.
Is the soap that good?

I like those numbers for the end of the week. Not sure what happened on Wednesday, it was the lowest day of the week for CBS soaps as well. I'm very surprised that Y&R's numbers were so low on Wednesday. It was the first day of the new writing, and it was quite intensively promoted by magazines, actors, CBS' Angelica McDaniel. Logan's website even posted the clip of the first scene . :shrug:
I think with weather getting colder in some regions and Holidays their ratings will rebound and I hope everything will be ok with this show. But, man, did they deserve a little bit of cold shower for those 180s they did during the transition! It was so incredibly destructive. I hope TPTB has learned the lesson and will never do anything like that again. It could have been so much better if they had decided to make improvements to the storylines instead of destroying and/or ignoring almost everything that was written by the previous regime.

I was going to watch the new Y&R (I gave up mid-March this year) but then the date arrived and I didn't watch. I think that interview with Sally Sussman turned me off. Of the 4 soaps, I think Y&R is by far the most consertive and none of her vision sounded to be about making the soap more current/modern.
I agree about you that it sucks when the transitions are too brutal, I had the same problem with Griffith/Higley when they replaced Tomlin/Whitesell. I think as a fan it's maddening when the stories you loved watching are brutally dropped or changed and there are more chances that you keep watching if those stories are concluded somewhat organically and respectfully.

I used the household ratings on wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._daytime_soap_opera_ratings

I started with 1996 because the article says that's when they started to count the ratings for all year, not just September-April. I assume the recent ratings, maybe after 2007 when the ratings started to stabilize, include DVR numbers (otherwise Days would have dipped below 2.0).
You can see that Y&R has been the most watched soap for over 20 years now. All soaps lost viewers but Y&R had more to lose so it makes sense that they stayed #1 to this day.

From what I can see they are trying to make this show more attractive to the younger audience (ex. GC Buzz stuff). But I feel too old for all this talk about trending, gifs of someone falling and wanting to be a host of a gossip show (I'm in the age group 35-45 lol).

I think CBS has the strongest Daytime programming in general. However it's Daytime and Primetime shows have problems with younger demos.

It's kinda weird that 2013-2014 season is only 2.2 for Days. They had a really good Nov. Sweeps in 2013 and a very good January and February. Why are they so low?

If look at the demos 2013 kicked 2015 in that not once did they go above 600,000 even at the 50th in 2013 they were did it very often consistent all year around i remember.

Something is not ok there. (I assume they have same day + 7 days DVR but still...).

Possible answers I can think of: 1. Some of these numbers on wikipedia are inaccurate 2. There was a weird discrepancy between household ratings and total viewership 3. Same day ratings were up but delayed ratings were down

Same day ratings were up but delayed ratings were down 2015 didn't compare 2013 if your talking all year around good Jan and Feb and May and Nov sweeps all got huge bumps. In 2015 only 50th got a big bump and it wasn't that impressive if look at the demos for the 50th not once did they beat 2013 numbers i think someone has done this wrong because just laughable to me.

Same day ratings were up but delayed ratings were down #1 or #3 are more likely. They give "sources" on wikki, but they are about some random weeks (from SON) :shrug: .
Btw, they have an archive for ratings on SON's board. http://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/forum/4-ratings-archive/

I'm not keeping track of the HH ratings from SON so I can only show you the comparison with viewership. It is weird that their most-watched season has the lowest HH rating of all.
HH ratings on wikipedia vs. Average same-day viewership from SON
2010-2011: 2.4 / 2,475,000 2011-2012: 2.6 / 2,419,000 2012-2013: 2.5 / 2,476,000 2013-2014: 2.2 / 2,546,000 2014-2015: 2.6 / 2,383,000 2015-2016: 2.4 / 2,381,000

I don't get it has 2013 to 2014 as No 1 in how many viewers roughly watched that year but 2014 to 2015 and 2015 to 2016 better HH.
What does this mean lol?

Odd. Maybe that's the explanation? http://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/14206-total-viewers-for-each-ratings-point-10/
I doubt it though. Because the numbers can't get smaller, can they?

DAYS Monday: 1.76/2,382,000 Tuesday: 1.68/2,241,000 Wednesday: 1.60/2,120,000 Thursday: 1.76/2,331,000 Friday: 1.74/2,343,000
I like those numbers for the end of the week. Not sure what happened on Wednesday, it was the lowest day of the week for CBS soaps as well.
To everyone here what is so good about Y&R? Since i started watching Days they always be no 1 never have they been toppled and you see their ratings so far ahead of the rest. Is the soap that good? Like every other soap Y&R has its good and bad times...depending on the regimes, LOL! But as of 1980, Y&R has always been constant and centered mostly around 2 core families(The Newmans & The Abbotts) and that hasn't changed to this day. Y&R always tried to keep the show fairly realistic, meaning...NO supernatural or sci-fi storylines, with the exception of a few doppelgängers. I sometimes find the pacing to be slow, but all in all, the show is always recognizable. The fact that in some areas, CBS airs it at 12:30(the first soap to air in the afternoon) might also work to their advantage, I don't know!
