On Tuesday, January 14, 2025, daytime legend Susan Lucci will host a 55th anniversary celebratory event honoring the daytime drama series “All My Children,” where for more than 40 years she captivated audiences with her portrayal of Erica Kane, a character who quickly became a cultural icon. Look for Lucci to reflect on the creation and evolution of her character and the lasting impact of “All My Children” on television history.

Titled “Susan Lucci in Conversation with Andy Cohen: All My Children at 55,” the event will take place in person and online at the 92nd Street Y (92NY) in New York City on Tuesday, January 14, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. ET. Tickets start at $25 for online viewing while in-person runs between $50 and $70, depending on seating location.

Moderated by Bravo star Andy Cohen (“Watch What Happens Live!,” “The Real Housewives” franchise), fans can look forward to seeing Kelly Ripa (Hayley Vaughan Santos; “Live with Kelly and Mark”), Eva LaRue (Maria Santos), Jill Larson (Opal Cortlandt) and Eden Riegel (Bianca Montgomery), along with the show’s acclaimed casting director Judy Blye Wilson and head writer Lorraine Broderick, as they relive stories front the set, share insight into how the show broke new ground, and celebrate with fans the enduring magic that was Pine Valley.

In addition to cementing Lucci as a pop culture icon, “All My Children” set the standard for dramatic storytelling throughout its more than 10,000 episodes.

Debuting January 5, 1970 on ABC, the show tackled contemporary social issues and created unforgettable moments of love, heartbreak and triumph while helping redefine the soap opera genre for generations.

“All My Children” concluded its ABC run on September 23, 2011 while a short-lived reboot ran from April 2013 to August 2013, produced by The OnLine Network (TOLN), a division of since-defunct Prospect Park Networks (PPN). Susan Lucci did not take part in the reboot.

    • I really have no problem with Kai as a character or with the actor. The problem is putting together two very nice people -- Kai and Trina. Neither of them has a bad side, neither of them has a devil on the shoulder, neither of them is impulsive. I think that's a problem in a soap relationship. Yeah, I agree. All this freaking out might make sense if Lulu wanted to do a tabloid expose on BLQ's LOVE CHILD. We have no indication that's the case.  
    • So Sonni would have somebody to talk to who she wasn't conspiring with (Will or Alan)? Alex kept telling Sonni how important her friends were...when she had virtually no friends. Instead they created loyal servants like Jane and Vera to give Alex people to play off of. They did that with Iris on AW, but Vivien was mostly there for comic relief Alex keeping Marah's paternity a secret was absurd. But I still love the scene between Alex and Alan where he convinces her by reminding her how they protected each other from their abusive father. Chris and Bev ATE that scene. Unfortunately, that took place only a few months before he exited the show...always thought they could have built on that, explored more how being Brandon's children screwed them both up. Maybe even used it as an explanation for the way their relationship could constantly swing from hatred to love. Instead of it being merely dictated by the plot.
    • The first one is Cass Winthrop dressed as Krystle Lake on Another World (not from his original creation of the character to hide from the loan shark Tony the Tuna, but at a romance convention trying to find out what had happened to Felicia who was missing). The second one is also Another World, Jake McKinnon as Doris although I don't recall what his purpose was.
    • I know there was one brief scene in the summer of 1989 where Lillian did mention Calla.. but in relation to her past relationship to Ross and it was to Roger while he was a patient at Cedars.  I think he was trying to pump her for information on Ross.. and for some reason, Calla's name came up.   I could see perhaps Beth mentioning that her mother Lillian was visiting Calla.. but not exactly giving any sort of details as to the going ons in Calla's life off screen.

    • They're neither great nor terrible AFAIK, but it is more a question of the streaming numbers in this day and age vs. actual TV airings. The Chibnall era reminded me much more of the crisis years, but I do think it's a very real possibility now as well due to the streaming bubble collapse affecting the show and its prospects.
    • ANYTHING to get her off the screen..she COULD have been interesting if she and Van had a few face offs..(there was a mild one of her going back to work...but I wanted something meatier "Bitch, I am Vanessa Chamberlain and I don't take advice from someone who followed the..career path you did!" I did like Alex's outright disdain for her.
    • Thanks @Vee for the commentary.    I haven’t even watched this season yet after  I couldn’t get past the couple episodes last season…like it was too Disneyified for my taste, although I did think it was a least better than the Chibnall era (but so is a lot of things). I’ll probably go back and binge it now. Hoping this season ends on a high note. I did read the ratings are terrible. As it stands I’m beginning to feel like what long time DW fans felt with S26 in 1989.
    • Yes, they are all on contract. Next.
