People: ABC cancels 'All My Children,' 'One Life to Live'
By Tony Hicksb(Contra Costa Times
Posted:B 04/14/2011 07:03:20 PM PDT


In a crushing blow to the daytime soap genre, ABC announced Thursday that it
will yank "All My Children" and "One Life to Life" off the air and replace them
with two lifestyle shows.
Here's hoping Susan Lucci's character goes out bravely in a hail of bullets.
"AMC" will end in September, followed by "OLTL" in January, to make way for
"The Chew" and "The Revolution." ABC said "these new shows expand ABC Daytime's
focus to include more programming that is informative and authentic and centers
on transformation, food and lifestyle -- cornerstones of programming that
resonates with daytime viewers as evidenced by the success of 'The View.' "
"General Hospital," the third most-watched soap opera in daytime, will not be
affected by the changes.
"One Life to Live" has been on the air 43 years. "All My Children" has run for
41 years and was best known for beloved villain Erica Kane, played by Lucci,
above.
"The Chew" will be produced by Gordon Elliot ("Paula Deen's Home Cooking") and
will enable viewers to "get the dish" on anything and everything related to the
world of food and beyond. "The Revolution," from executive producer JD Roth and
3 Ball Productions ("The Biggest Loser"), will be a daily show about health and
lifestyle transformations.
The enormous costs of maintaining old (and many think outdated) soaps was the
primary reason behind killing "AMC" and "OLTL."

Days> Baker is repulsive.  He gives me the creeps.  *shudders*  I am about a
week behind but I was already tired of the Bo/Hope/Dr Baker line.  Just put Bo
and Hope back together.  We all know that's what they are striving towards
anyway.  Question is:  Who will they put Carly with?

Days> Ugh, I just want stupid, boring Bo to burst into flames already! He's so
STUPID, and BORING! I am sooooooooooooooo sad and upset that Hope didn't take
Dr. Baker up on his offer to run away with him to exotic places. :( Dr. Baker
is SOOOooo HOT! <3 He NEEDS some womanly action! Oh, How I wish that *I* could
be the woman who provides it for him! *swoons* *thuds* *faints*

Days> I think the Hope storyline became forced due to a couple of unforseen
circumstances.  1.  The death of Frances Reid which should start ramping up
(and I think is the reason Maggie and Victor are rapidly moving closer).  2.
The contract enforced month off for Peter Reckell (had ne not been given the
time off, DAYS would have gone over budget being forced to pay him overtime and
penalties for going over the # of episodes in his contract.

YR>  wish they'd stop bringing B&B plots over to YR.  If I wanted to watch both
soaps, I would.  Or if the writers are going to try to pull me into another
show, at least use a more interesting character than Amber.  I just don't care
enough about her to research Deacon and the Forresters.

Days> Can't believe that they are having Hope be a "bad guy".  I am surprised
that they let us on so soon.  Sometimes I wonder why I still watch.

Y&R>  Yep...1984 was the year that Jeanne Cooper had the infamous facelift that
her character Kay Chancellor had as well and was the first ever to be
televised.  I remember watching it too...it was really interesting.
