Susan Lucci’s character Erica Kane has been around a long long time and let’s be honest – when you think of soap operas you immediately think of Susan Lucci. So how is she taking Thursday’s news that One Life to Live and All My Children are being cancelled?
She took it quite well actually saying to The Hollywood Reporter:
“It’s been a fantastic journey. I’ve loved playing Erica Kane and working with Agnes Nixon and all the incredible people involved with All My Children. I’m looking forward to all kinds of new and exciting opportunities.”
Even Kelly Ripa who got her start on the show was saddened by the news saying:
“This is like losing a member of your family. All My Children was more than a job — it was my family. It was there that I met my husband; it was there when my first two children were born; it was there where I met many of my life-long friends. It was the greatest training ground ever. I feel heartsick.”
The shows will be replaced by The Chew and The Revolution, a food and health show respectively.
