AMC and OLTL Canceled!

They're giving All My Children virtually no time to wrap up.

True, but as long as the soap mags can keep their place in the check out line and slowly transition to prime time, I think they have a chance. Time will tell.

new name: GH in Depth ?

I was having a bad day, until this.....now I'm just numb to be honest. We knew it was coming, but still.

Looks like they haven't informed the actors yet. Nelson Branco said on twitter he the first one to tell Robin Strasser.

SFT's Jo Turner (Mary Stuart) comes to mind. This is such a sad day- can't believed they double whammied and cancelled em both. The days of fake reprieves for shows whose last airdate is predestined (hi NBC and P&G!) are over. I really thought both shows were going to avoid the ax for just a little bit longer, but it's not to be.

I've always thought DAYS, Y&R, GH, and B&B would be the final 4. Fans of these 4 shows really need to rally and tune in to them if they want them to have any prayer of staying on the air.

Nope.

Selfishly, I would have rather OLTL gone first, to give AMC more time to wrap it up, if only because AMC is so much further off the beaten path than OLTL is right now.

Ugh, now I have to watch poor Susan on Nate Berkus, dodging the cancellation rumors.

Andy Cohen is such a fanboy.

Shouldn't they know AMC's exact final airdate by this point? Has that been stated anywhere?

[Ann_SS]

The title is odd. But the chefs that are appearing so far are ones that I like or at least find interesting. I hope that Anthony Bourdian shows up. He can ruthlessly critique their dishes.

Such a sad today for all soaps fans today....and then there were four.

Some of the actors do know.....

David A. Gregory (Ford, OLTL) commented about it on his Facebook page, which I including an a quick SON report on the cancellation news...

"Oh, guys, it's with great difficulty I report that at a company meeting today, we were told the 'OLTL' will be taping their last episodes in November. Airing Jan. 2012. 'AMC' will finish taping in August. Thank you all so much for your support of not only Daytime TV, but the ABC soaps: especially 'OLTL.' And the Ford clan!! Love you guys. Frank has promised were goin' out with a bang so get ready!"
