all my children and one life to live cancelled on abc

[ttwarrior1]

1st guiding light, then as the world turns, what next, . Adding some self home show and another talk show.

They say ratings are down because so many more women are working. These network never heard of soap channel or taping or dvr or watching online. Doesn't count on the ratings.

[senseionline]

u into it......... and i thought those r only for lonely housewives

[VegasInsider]

can't believe they last this long.

[jjgold]

Yeh days are over for soaps
people too busy to watch tv in daytime except sbr posters

[Vegas_bond]

Oh, what am I gonna do without my soaps? Im so sad now.

[yisman]

That's too bad, warrior. I know how much you and your relatives look forward to each day's episode.

[King Mayan]

Omg... Go to work you obese prikk...

[dherd]

oh no, say it aint so - what am i going to do with my afternoons ???????

[nyed1010]

[ttwarrior1]

i only watched guiding light, cancelled that a year ago but these shows been on for years just to have wayne brady or whoever do a fake talk show

[shari91]

Dude, I don't even watch that stuff

(sorry to see your 'stories' go though if you truly enjoyed them)

[kidcd]

about time

[doublej95]

must be a sad day for ttwarrior.

[mrmarket]

My grandmother watches these daily. I watch them whenever I go to visit so it's unsurprising purely based on quality that they are cancelled but I feel bad for her nonetheless. Conclusion to be had is ABC Hates Grandmas.

[craig4nr]

I don't know anyone, regardless of sex or age, that still watches these shows. I'm surprised they didn't get discontinued ten years ago.

[Boner_18]

All those shows are terrible. They are just transitioning to put that soap crap on prime time. Add a little production value to General Hospital and *poof* you have Grey's Anatomy.

[kickenchicken]

and what is this tread doing on a manly gambling site??? lol

Hey don't be knocking General Hospital

[dom75]

Its a sad sad day for the married man who has a wife that watches these shows. When these shows are taken off officially, the wives will be complainin / naggin / nit picking an extra 2 hours more a day. Poor poor married men...... heck, retired old men will probably come out of retirement no matter how old they are so they don't have to sit at home withthe ole lady.

[Davydave]

How is JJ going to spend his afternoons now?

[stevenash]

Soaps cost money with the writers, actors, etc. etc.
Too much overhead.

It costs nothing to get four washed up shrews to sit on a studio set, and yammer on how great Barbara Streisand sings, who wore what to the royal wedding, and how great Meryl Streep can act.

It's all about money.

[unusialsusp5]

they went too far with the characters moving into town and finding out that their real parents who gave them up are coincidentally living there...as for general hospital and all of them where do these people find parking spaces at the hospitals to frequent them every day...the whole team seemingly goes to the hospital every day to visit or have surgery or complain about bad relationships...they never work or buy groceries either...

[yisman]

This is actually devastating news for SBR. The warrior clan will now have even more time to spend on SBR starting nonsense threads.

[Grits n' Gravy]

put a tt reality show in their place.

[ATP123]

too bad that one short girl on all my children was hot

[soli]

It's about time those old soaps leave the airways and try something new. I even got caught up in a few of those back in the day.

[BRAVES1985]

fuk what am i gonna do mabey il look for a job

[Hamon]

O really bad dude.

[oiler]

there are just too many soap operas for women to watch

[mtneer1212]

The Springer effect finally drained the soaps....... why watch scripted drama with actors when you can watch scripted drama with real people

[CMNoney]

If the ratings aren't there, they just aren't there.

[MB]

cancel days of our lives next. My girl watches that mind numbing bs

[warriorfan707]

wtf is wrong with you, I demand you change your posting name

[Hootie Johnson]

Soap operas are done. Hell even the Soap Opera channel is scheduled to be replaced by Disney Junior in the fall!

[Art Vandeleigh]

One of the strangest days I can ever remember was the day I found out my father, a relatively macho kind of guy, had started to watch Young and the Restless with my mother. This was just inconceivable and incomprehensible to me. He claims he thought the women were hot. In this case, not good enough reason, dad, not good enough.
