OWN Ratings Revealed: Are ‘AMC’ and ‘OLTL’ Soaring or Falling Flat?

Soap fans were thrilled when Oprah Winfrey’s network, OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network, announced that it would be airing a summer soap opera fling in which the first 40 episodes of the online soaps “All My Children” and “One Life to Live” would broadcast over a 10 week period. And with the possibility of the network picking up both shows permanently if the ratings are high, a lot is on the line when it comes to those numbers! So just how did the sudsers perform?

TV Media Insights just released the ratings for the first week, so you can see for yourself!
