After more than 30 years entertaining their fans, All My Children is set to be cancelled. Erica Kane, Tad Martin, Angela Hubbard, Jesse Hubbard, Opal, Joe and Ruth Martin and the rest of the remarkable cast are all going to be a thing of the past, this Fall.
Due to low viewership, the cameras will soon stop rolling.
I have watched All My Children since the early 70s, when Erica was playing the role of an irresponsible teenager, who fell in love at the drop of a dime. Tad was a small boy who came into town under dire circumstances. His father Ray Gardener left him in the park alone.
Since then, Erica, played by Susan Lucci and Tad, played by Michael Knight have both grown up and they are both accomplished actors. I don’t know how I will fill the one o’clock void when All My Children leave the airways, but, I do know that the entire cast will be sorely missed by me and all of their fans.
