Y&R to Compete with GH in Atlanta, 8th Largest TV Market

Roger Newcomb September 17, 2009
THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS is moving to GUIDING LIGHT's old timeslot starting on Monday, Sept. 21, 2009 in the Atlanta market. Nielsen Media Research recently published a report stating that Atlanta is still the eighth largest television market in the United States.

Y&R will now compete against GENERAL HOSPITAL in Atlanta. BETTER ATLANTA will fill Y&R's old timeslot, at least for now. No word on what is happening with LET'S MAKE A DEAL once it debuts on October 5.

Thanks to Kecia for the tip.
