Thread: 'All My Children,' 'One Life to Live' canceled

I do not watch soaps and haven't for over 20 years but this makes me wonder just what kind of garbage they'll put on daytime TV to replace the canceled shows. Not a big fan of daytime TV except for occasional TNT reruns of Charmed, Las Vegas & Supernatural. The rest of it stinks including Ellen, Oprah, Dr. Oz & Dr. Phil! Not a huge fan of The View (although I really like Whoopie!) and The Talk is a poor substitute for entertainment.

...Just curious....

abc will air two new shows, one about food and the other about lifestyle transformations.

>snip<

'the chew' comes from veteran food network producer gordon elliot ('paula deen's home cooking,' 'down home with the neelys') and will focus on every aspect of food. The one-hour series about the big world of food will be hosted by mario batali, 'what not to wear' stylist clinton kelly, 'top chef' veteran carla hall, 'iron chef america' star michael symon and nutrition expert daphne oz.

'the chew' will replace 'all my children' starting in september.

In january, abc will launch 'the revolution,' a show about health and lifestyle changes. 'the revolution' hails from the producers of 'the biggest loser' and 'extreme makeover: Weight loss edition.'

tim gunn headlines the "dream team" of kimberly locke -- yep, 'american idol' contestant kimberly locke -- and fitness trainer harley pasternak. The three will be joined by a rotating cast of contributors to help transform all aspects of people's lives. Over the five weekday broadcasts, the series will feature one woman's five-month weight loss path. Abc calls the show a "one-stop shop for better living." based the on the description, it's hard to get a grasp on just how this show will pan out.

ick.
