But ABC’s “General Hospital,” on the air since Lincoln was president, has been a hit all summer on Hulu.
The six decade old soap been attracting more viewers on Hulu than the Emmy-nominated “The Bear.”
One shot in the arm might have been the special appearance of talk host John Oliver, who asked for a role and got one.
“General Hospital” averages 2 million viewers a day on ABC, and remains popular with younger women and housewives.
It’s not going anywhere, since ABC is no longer in the syndication game with talk shows, and there’s enough bleak news going on 24/7.
