They're number one now!?!?! WOW. They beat Y&R.

I think there number 1 overall in the world. I think in the US, Y&R is still number 1. I will say I'm really not surprised at B&B being number 1. I mean they always do fancy and exotic shoots all over the world.

Proof that outside North America, people are desperate for something to watch.
Anyone on these boards who is familiar with BB would know how bad that show is.

The fact that for the first time ever the Daytime Emmy's won't be televised, tells you how low the audience is.
