Australia's 'Bold' New Timeslot A Hit
Submitted by Darren Lomas on December 2, 2008 - 4:27pm
The Daily Telegraph is reporting that The Bold and the Beautiful's new timeslot in Australia is a hit. Based on first day ratings, the primetime slot has picked up viewers. It was the most watched B&B episode of the year, with an audience of 594,000 (up 26% on the 2008 average). Is the ratings spike a result of the heavily-hyped move, or does it mark an upswing in the fortunes of B&B? In these dark days for daytime dramas, it's something we'll be keeping a eye on at Daytime Confidential.

I bet you if they did an episode involving the blender the ratings would be sky high!
Hey! I put a copyright on that and if Brad/Kay wanna use it, they've got to pay me top dollar. I ain't cheap
I'm loving the new timeslot (now I can watch it when I get home from work) and its going to rock when the cricket is on.
I think this smart maybe if soaps aired later in the day ratings would improve.
I'm waiting to see if the ratings high continues. Could just be those people who didn't know and tuned in to see The Simpsons LOL
