“These shows have proven to be very popular with a significant, loyal fan base, not to mention Oprah herself is a big fan,” said Erik Logan, president, OWN. “Many of our viewers across numerous platforms have expressed their passion for the soaps so we are especially excited to air this limited engagement on OWN.”
“We are really excited to bring OWN viewers and our audience at large an opportunity to catch up on All My Children and One Life to Live on traditional television,” said Jeff Kwatinet , CEO Prospect Park Networks, which co-produces the series with The OnLine Network. “We look forward to our millions of fans enjoying the first 40 episodes of the shows.”
Half-hour episodes of All My Children and One Life to Live will air Monday through Thursday on OWN beginning July 15. All My Children will air at 1pm ET/PT, and One Life to Live will air at 3pm ET/PT.
