  1. I have watched all my children and one life to live since they began and am going to miss them very very much I work so I record them faithfully everyday and always look forward to them every night. What will I watch at night when I get home since the nightime line up really sucks and I guess I will save money when I send my Hd recorder back to the cable company cause I sure won't need it to record the shows that they are going to replace the soaps with or anything else abc has to offer. I'm very disappointed in this decision I feel it is wrong move on abc's part and they should give this a second thought after all what will daytime Tv be without Erica Kane and Victoria Banks

  2. I feel like I've lost a limb...OLTL has been my hope and smile on days of pain and sickness...it breaks my heart. I will no longer watch ABC TV when the soaps go.
