Two long years after being cancelled, One Life to Live and All My Children are back, and they've never been this edgy.

These legendary soaps are getting away with a lot more now that they're airing on the internet and don't have to worry about the standards of broadcast television.

All My Children's Cady McClain said, "There's definitely a difference in the sex scenes. I haven't had to do it yet, but I've seen a couple and I've been like, 'Oh my gosh!'"

INSIDE EDITION was on the set as actress Paula Garces shot a steamy scene for the new All My Children.

"Now that it's on the internet, the show is definitley a little edgier. It moves much faster," Garces said.

Garces is new to the show, but she got some tips from the show's most famous cast member—Susan Lucci, who played the villainous Erica Cane for 41 years.

"She gave some pointers and said that it was going to be really cool, and I asked her if she was gonna come back and all she said was that she was trying to work it out," she said.

The two soaps used to be an hour long but on the internet they're just 30 minutes an episode. The shows air Monday through Friday on Hulu and iTunes.

Vincent Irizarry of All My Children said, "We were #1 on iTunes and #1 on Hulu, I think it's a very good indication that it's a success."

I so love this and the falling pictures but I don't think Prospect "We're not your grandmother's All my Children" Park is down with that. I'm happy they flash the book at all. I thought we would just have a title card so I'll take this. And the song slowly grows on you until you catch yourself singing it on your way to work.

Please, Elsa, point me in the direction of some of these "short-lived Norwegian soaps" you talk of. I so need to laugh this evening.

    • Not you saying this as I was reading above about the Nip/Tuck actor. lol.
    • Speaking of one of those floppy-haired guys, were Lucas and Elizabeth portrayed as such close friends when Ryan Carnes was in the role? Not that I'm complaining, because I think Van and Becky are great scene partners, and I loved their "watching the Nurses' Ball at home" scenes today. It was fun to see them dishing about the people at the Ball, and it was a nice contrast to the heavy drama playing out elsewhere. 
    • Silk Press Sheila at it again!   Nosy Nurse in her messy element!   Anita vs Tracy!   Smitty and those glasses AND a Jazmen episode?   YES, PLEASE. Same. I love that this show knows how to rotate the cast so you don't get tooooo tired of someone. Some other shows could take note. 
    • Leslie envisioning herself as Nicole is why I said PASSIONS. This woman is clearly not happy with herself.
    • Yes he was. Ted had a dark side. One thing I noticed that different is I felt OG Ted had the capacity to kill Leslie if she pushed him too hard. I don’t get with this Ted as he’s been far too patient with her . His angry doesn’t convey the darkness that the character had before. He was ain’t ish in a way I came to feel was worse than Bill. I don’t think the new guy portrays him more from a heroic standpoint. 
    • Same.  They are easy to tell apart. I had trouble telling Chad Duell and the guy that played Dex apart at times, but these guys are just like men that look slightly similar?  Not even the same age range. I don't really get your point.  These people aren't the Ford brothers.
    • Frank did the same thing on OLTL 
    • It would have been cute if Lucky did perform and dedicated a song to Elizabeth who couldn't be there, but we don't get nice things Blaze wasn't actually that good of a singer.  I judge Miguel Morez (more than usual) for his taste in opening acts.
    • Facially they don't look that similar. I don't think anyone would compare Rory, Giovanni and Van aside from their hair. Van is also 43, so...I'm sure he would find being compared to some of these guys flattering. Rory reminds me a little of that unsettling actor who played that godawful son on Nip/Tuck. I doubt it was intentional to go that route with Michael, but it would be interesting if they do try to bring back how deeply unsettling Michael was as a child.
    • Sorry.  I sincerely should not have brought that thought into the world.
