Description
On today’s Daytime Confidential podcast Luke Kerr, Jamey Giddens, Regan Cellura, Jillian Bowe and Melodie Aikels are joined by TV Guide’s Michael Logan to talk about the tragic news ABC has cancelled All My Children and One Life to Live.
In February, Jamey reported ABC would be making a major decision about its line up in April. On April 1 Logan took the story one step further, reporting ABC would likely cancel both AMC and OLTL. It was one report Logan wishes he was wrong about.
During the episode, Logan discusses with the DC gang how the industry came to this point in time, how several soaps' PR teams are not doing their jobs, whether-or-not we can ever believe an ABC press release again, what this means for the four remaining soaps and much more.
After the episode ends, hear more calls to the Daytime Confidential hotline by fans of AMC and OLTL as they share their reaction to the news.
