     The big news here? "Passions." A huge bump in viewership (for whatever reason), put the soap in sixth place overall, the first time it has ever moved about 9th, and it was up 26% over last season. Other than that, nothing to see here.

     Well, as quick as "Passions" rises.... but it was still the only soap to post an increase over last season. But things got better for ABC, all three of "GH," "AMC" and "OLTL" all posted or matched summer highs, the latter two breaking the 3.0 ratings threshold for the first time in months. "Days" saw a fall too, but generally, things were looking up, or at least less down than lately.

       SIt was ABC's week to shine as general increases in households translated into increases in most demos. "Passions" slipped back to 7th, but was within shooting distance of "B&B" and ABC's "AMC" and "OLTL."

     It was "GH"s week in this demo. Though it's nowhere near "Days," it did record its best numbers of the summer.
