After reporting how daytime stacks up when looking at the Adults 18-49 demo as used by primetime advertisers, one has to wonder what daytime looks like in the actual key sales demo of Women 18-49 when it comes to the season-to-date rankings. What’s surprising is how poorly “The View” does overall, and how well “General Hospital” is actually doing when factoring in the Live+7* numbers vs. the traditionally reported Live+SD** numbers seen here on Soap Opera Network each week.

As we prepare to publish another week’s worth of ratings covering the daytime soaps “The Bold and the Beautiful,” “Days of our Lives,” “General Hospital” and “The Young and the Restless,” we felt it was worth noting the difference between daytime and primetime when it comes to demographics as part of a year-end report.

Although he’s finished his time at “The Young and the Restless” after his character, Joe Clark, was arrested for setting up Cane Ashby (Daniel Goddard) for extortion on the Friday, December 11 episode of the CBS Daytime drama series, actor Scott Elrod is moving on in the new year with an upcoming guest appearance on ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy” and news that he’ll be a first time daddy with girlfriend Vanessa Vazart.

It was in 1996 when Tori Spelling broke out of her shell as Donna Martin on the popular FOX hit “Beverly Hills, 90210” with the NBC original movie, “Mother, May I Sleep with Danger?” As the TV movie approaches its 20th anniversary, Lifetime announced today that it is remaking the classic with a story by “General Hospital’s” James Franco (ex-Franco), who will also executive produce.

“One Life to Live’s'” Patricia Elliott has died at the age of 77. The actress, who portrayed Renee Divine on the former ABC Daytime drama series passed away on Sunday, December 20 in her Manhattan home after a battle with cancer, reports her niece, Sally Fay.

Best known for roles on “All My Children” and “Another World,” actress Alla Korot is set to begin filming at NBC’s “Days of our Lives” next month in the newly created role of Janet Bernard, Korot announced on her Twitter page over the weekend. A first airdate is not yet known but fans can expect for the actress to hit the screen sometime in June.

With hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, who were around to promote their new movie “Sisters,” last night’s final 2015 episode of “Saturday Night Live” featured a daytime drama wrap up presented by Somebody’s Mom, Deenie (played by Kate McKinnon) during the popular “Weekend Update” segment. Hilarity ensued as Deenie recapped 2015 on CBS’ “The Young and the Restless” with such character descriptions as mustache man, big boobs, sexpot, priss pants, red head, and perfect skin, among others, as a way to describe Genoa City’s most prominent citizens.

“The Young and the Restless'” Scott Elrod (Joe Clark) will be playing an Army doctor on ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy,” which returns with all-new episodes beginning Thursday, February 11 after airing its winter finale last month.

Former “General Hospital” actress Jaime Ray Newman (ex-Kristina Davis) is heading to A&E’s “Bates Motel” for a major recurring role in the upcoming fourth season of the hit series, reports Deadline.

Melanie Jonas may have left Salem earlier this year just as Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) was coming to terms with dealing with his situation with Theresa Donovan (Jen Lilley), but she’s back beginning next month when actress Molly Burnett reprises her role on “Days of our Lives.”
