Young and the Restless will also be around. I used to watch DOOL until I got tired of the repeated breakups of Hope and Bo and Sami's storyline with the English sounding guy.

Never watched OLTL or GH. Just stuck with these two and I loved another World when it was on.

There was a time when I would be glued to the TV every day watching one after another, soap. It was difficult but I broke the habit, although I did tun into All My Children once in a great while. I have heard the AMC's days may be numbered. I guess it is a different time we are living in.

days of our lives is the only one I have ever watched but I have watched it pretty much daily for many years, watched it some on our lunch break at college, started seriously again in the 80's. I will really miss it if it does go.

I thought it was All My Children and One Lift to Live that were canceled, not Days Of Our Lives?

Errrr Make that One LIFE to Live! LOL

Yep, it's All My Children and One Life To Live

Opps! Sorry about that!! Yes, is is AMC, and not Days.

And i can not believe that I forgot about Y & R. Scheech! I **am** getting old! :)

Thinking of all the old shows I liked, Edge of Night, Love is a Many Splendored Thing, General Hospital in the beginning with Steve and Jessie, later Luke and Laura, I miss them. The times are changing. I watch very little TV.

I've watched Days off and on for over 30 years. Right now, it's off. I watched 20 minutes of one show last week and see they're recycling a John storyline, using Rafe instead. (faux Rafe, while real Rafe is locked in the basement). I may watch it again in the future.

Right now, I'm watching Y&R. It's on at 4 here, which is when I get home from work. I took a 20 year break from the show, and got hooked again when John died. I've been hooked since. I love Adam!

OMG I'm still at a loss at 2:00 when I used to watch Guiding Light. I watched it for years--taped it when I wasnt here and even got DH hooked on it. All those people are now on other soaps, so I guess w/ these 2 cancelling, they'll be out job hunting again.

I hear ya! I'm still lost at 2 when ATWT came on. I still remember watching it with my mom as a kid, and not understand what was going on!LOL!

well good I hope they leave days of our lives alone I enjoy watching it while I have my lunch.

Days got a 3 year renewal last month.

I was sad when Guiding Light and then As the World Turns went off air. I remember being a young teen, and coming to my Grandmother's house to care for my Nana (great-grandmother).

Nana was OK for a few hours on her own, but my grandmother worked, and during the summer I would walk to her house and stay with Nana. She was about 88 at that time, but goodness! she loved her "stories"!

So while I didn't watch them for years, GL and ATWT were my third generation soaps. My mother watched them, too. I picked them up again when we moved here. My son was just barely 2 years, daycare was hideous, so I stayed home. Those soaps came on during nap time, LOL. That was 23 years ago.

I didn't watch religiously, but I did enjoy them. I certainly preferred them to the other daytime programming.

The genre seems to be going away. I can understand, because while a soap will pull in a couple of million viewers, so will a talk show. But the talk show is much cheaper to produce.
