I hope so....

I think ABC is making a huge mistake with this decision.

The shows replacing the soaps are cheaper to produce as well as the ratings for the soaps have dropped over time.
Sad overall.

Oh no! Man, I grew up with both of those shows. Sigh.

That sucks. Why cancel, couldn't they have cut them back to 30 minutes like they use to be?

In all honesty, I am a bit sad to see these go as well. But, ironically, my hubby is the one that's extremely upset as he hasn't missed a show in several years for either one of these! I am sad as it keeps him out of my hair so I can quilt and surf the board. LoL! Now what am I gonna do to occupy him for those 2 hrs a day??

I have watched them both since their beginning...wow, saddens me that they want just talk shows and reality tv nowadays. That is my relaxation time after cleaning and before preparing dinner, guess I will have to quilt lol.

Now you know how I felt when they canceled Guiding Light and Days of our Lives on CBS. But I now have more time to quilt.

They are crazy to cancel these 2 soaps. I have watched both of them everyday for years. I think talk shows and reality shows are boring. After all, who wants to hear about other peoples problems.
