As Bernard Barrow told "Good Morning America" on January 10, 1989, the show's Nielsen numbers were still openly revealed to cast and crew until "Ryan's Hope" fell to dead last in the daytime ratings during the 1987–1988 TV season. Thereafter, "a lid was tightened" according to Barrow, and the show's now-12th (13th the following year) place ranking was harder to obtain from the insiders. The final episode (#3515) on January 13, 1989, concluded with Helen Gallagher's Maeve singing "Danny Boy", as she had for many previous Ryan celebrations. For the final episodes, numerous cast members who had been on the show in previous years returned. Soon after the show's end, the then-current and last version of the Ryan's Bar set was modified and then used on "One Life to Live", where it was used for the next few years as a bar/club in Llanview. Coincidentally, both "Ryan's Hope" and "One Life to Live" would later share a series finale date, as "OLTL" concluded a 43-year ABC network run on January 13, 2012, twenty-three years to the day that "Ryan's Hope" aired its final episode. ("OLTL" resumed production in early 2013, initially as an online series airing on Hulu and The Online Network, but also subsequently for TV outlets such as FX Canada and the Oprah Winfrey Network. "OLTL" was later shelved and cancelled due to a lawsuit between ABC and the production company responsible for the online revival Prospect Park.) In October 2013, Ilene Kristen made several appearances on "General Hospital", reviving her role as Delia, now much older and running Ryan's Bar. (It was largely implied that both Johnny and Maeve had died.) Delia was also revealed to be the long-lost mother of the evil Ava Jerome, a "GH" character. Kristen's appearances were well received, as was the re-designed Ryan's Bar (rumored to be an old set from "All My Children"). She has repeated her role occasionally in 2014 and 2015 when "GH" plots take the characters to New York City. When "Ryan's Hope" premiered on July 7, 1975, ABC scheduled it at 1:00 p.m. Eastern/12 Noon Central, a timeslot previously occupied by "All My Children" (pushing that soap to the 12:30 p.m./11:30 a.m. slot).
