In reply to: "CCCapwell" 's message, "Re: Are these ratings correct?" on 07:41:02 04/21/02 Sun

I am leaning more towards 2005 because...

1) There's the decision on whether to expand Bold and the Beautiful to a full hour or to replace GL with another hour show.

2) GL will probably fluctuate between the 3.2-2.8 range until the ratings suffer another fatal drop.(While CBS swears up and down that they would never cancel Guiding Light).

Not only that, but if GL were cancelled, the new show(whether it is hour long or a half-hour long) will definetly fall into the traditional CBS soap mold(i.e. core families, different age groups represented, etc.), a style of show you and just about every other soap fan has been craving for since the 80's.

It doesn't seem like CBS will air a soap like The City or Port Charles(both shows which had no core families or more than 4 over 30 characters). So, if GL is cancelled(and I hope it isn't) at least there is a good chance it's fans won't get stuck with a loser soap like Passions.
