GL had between 8-9 million viewers. I think NBC made a huge mistake by debuting "Texas" in the same time slot or when both GH & GL were on. It was just too much competition coming from both shows, in which "Texas" never really had a chance to capture an audience or get higher ratings.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09452091804355650616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-29767735888422199512014-08-05T15:47:15.162-04:002014-08-05T15:47:15.162-04:00Some future history for this date, perhaps:

I know Luke and Laura were on the run in late summer 1980, but had they taken off by the time Texas debuted? Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04527835638959413151noreply@blogger.com
