BlackMamba January 20, 2016 Share January 20, 2016 NBC likely to renew Days IMO great news. They had a bumpy 2015. The second half of the year saved them and the early start to 2016 has been good ratings wise. Like I said in the other thread NBC needs Days to promote their primetime lineups, without it's nothing but a bunch of syndicated shows. Link to comment
swtrgrl January 20, 2016 Share January 20, 2016 I know it's horrible but I kinda want there to be some kind of "punishment" for Corday. Cancellation may be harsh but...what else is there? 1 Link to comment

I think that sums it up pretty well for everyone. I agree, at least. The show has been pretty bad now for several years, but it would still be a shame if if was cancelled. I'd miss it, I guess. 5 Link to comment

buffynut January 12, 2019 Share January 12, 2019 (edited) No one has posted here since May 2017, but this thread needs to be resurrected, as Days came in SECOND place in a couple categories in the Dec 24 to Dec 28 ratings, and ahead of GH in all of them. Along with the show's renewal for a 55th season, a lot of good news this week.

Looking at those numbers, though, didn't Y/R and B/B lose way bigger numbers? Days was always fourth. The top two shows lost a lot. Y/R is the most sleep-inducing show on TV, and I include all TV in that assessment. B/B as always has some stuff going on at a fast pace. Crazy stuff, but they even lost viewers. The pre-emptions def hurt Days time jump, it was so confusing. I found that I had to go back to On Demand to figure out what I had missed. I am one who is actually enjoying the time jump, though I didn't think I would. But with the pre-emptions, it made it difficult, so they may have lost viewers that way. 2 Link to comment
WendyCR72 January 6, 2020 Share January 6, 2020 My parents were teens/early 20s in the 1960s, so they always told me about the limbo. The song for that dance went "how LOW can you GO?!". Pretty much sums up Days' miserable and totally well-deserved ratings. Everything is miserable, joyless, and outright ridiculous. 4 Link to comment
WendyCR72 March 27, 2020 Share March 27, 2020 So apparently, the ratings still suck. And most of the comments where those ratings are posted are basically doing what we do here - ragging on brain chips and the Stevano crap. Make it stop, before the ratings go fractional! 3 Link to comment
FrankOFoley April 1, 2020 Share April 1, 2020 I was hoping this would happen. Tvline.com is reporting that ratings for all soaps are up. (Sorry I can’t give the direct link) I would like to know how they compared to other daytime shows. My first impression was that people will watch soaps if they didn’t have to work, etc. 2 Link to comment
enchantingmonkey April 1, 2020 Share April 1, 2020 Here's the link to the TVLiine article. It also mentions how Days' ridiculous production schedule may serve as an advantage for them, for once. https://tvline.com/2020/03/31/soaps-ratings-daytime-quarantine-y-and-r/ 2 Link to comment

Rafael July 3, 2020 Share July 3, 2020 Days has hit a new low in total viewers...1,747,0000 (-63,000 from last week). The time jump is an epic fail . It was blatantly obvious that carlivati wrote himself into a corner and got himself out of it under the guise of the time jump . What made this extra obvious was the fact that the time jump consisted of the same characters he was writing for before the time jump. If he was serious about this time jump he should have culled some characters such as Brady ,Ben ,Ciara ,Faux Sarah and so on and even brought back the likes of Carrie ,Mike ,Eugene,Cassie ,Calliope and introduced the likes of Noelle Curtis ,Andrew Donovan ,Kiriakis twins ,alexander Kiriakis,Spencer olsen and so on.the canvas should have seen a sort of clean slate but nah , he stuck with the same characters he wrote into a corner.

That's not how soaps work. Ron doesn't have carte blanche to hire and fire and decide who will be on the show. Hell, it sounds like there's plenty of EP interference even with stories. And new characters aren't going to miraculous make the execution any better. 1 Link to comment

And to just swap out characters would make viewers confused, lose investment, and just turn the show off. Not that it is doing all that much better now, obviously. But I think it all comes down to the horrible writing, lack of motivation for...well, almost everything, rewarding psychos with happy endings (hi, Kristen!), and so many more issues. What it comes down to is, this is the only soap currently showing new episodes. And it is still a God-awful failure. You'd think it would wake Ken Corday the hell up. His parents, Betty and Ted, need to haunt him for what he is doing to their legacy. 3 Link to comment

Then they shouldnt have allowed him to do the time jump in the first place. He hasnt done anything groundbreaking or innovative with it. Same ol same ol . Its blatantly clear that he requested the time jump because his already limited skill set as a writer were pushed beyond breaking point and he just wanted a way out and restart again.

His parents, Betty and Ted, need to haunt him for what he is doing to their legacy. But the thing is , the viewers they have left are pretty much the die hard fans who have been watching the show for a long time . Its very clear that the mainstream and casual people wont watch the show on a consistent basis . And its very likely that when they do catch an episode ,they walk away being insulted by Prjncess Gina brain chip and Stefano's soul in steve's body schtick. As for swapping characters ,why the heck not ? Atleast most of the characters that could be brought back are legacy characters who have prior history and relations with the characters on the canvas. It wont be difficult to explain their connections to the present characters on the canvas. For instance ,I started watching the show around 1992 and had never ever seen Kayla ,Kimberly ,Steve ,Shane ,Larry Welch ,Andre DiMera ,Melissa Horton etc But I never struggled or got confused when they returned as guests or when Steve and Kayla returned to the show in 2006 . At that point i didnt even know that Jack (Mark Valley's version ) had a brother and was married to Kayla. But the writers did a decent job explaining their history during the week of their big return and I had invested in Steve and Kayla especially after going to wikipedia and Days NBC page to read the character bios. Same scenario unfolded when Max and Frankie Brady returned in 2005 as I only though that Bo,Roman and Kim were the only children of Shawn and Caroline.I still managed to catch up on their history and so on. I think you underestimate the viewers ability to grasp and adapt to new characters. As long as the writing is good and makes sense , the characters will catch on. Especially if they were on the show prior. 1 Link to comment
