How many weeks in a row can OLTL come in as ABC's highest rated soap? How long will it take ABC to admit it made a mistake in cancelling OLTL? I'm fully and sadly aware we will never get an answer to the latter. But, although it doesn't make up for losing our show, there is a tiny bit of solace in seeing the ratings climb.

Sadly, I bet none of this is even making Fronshole blink. If anything, it will just make GH more vulnerable to cancellation.

ITA with Chris. Frons is too stupid to se passed his nose. He'll blame the audience. He's too dumb to see that people are loosing interest in General Mobsters.
