Prospect Park's Rich Frank and Jeff Kwatinetz sent to message to fans today detailing an upcoming schedule change for ALL MY CHILDREN and ONE LIFE TO LIVE.  Starting May 20 ALL MY CHILDREN will stream new episodes on Mondays and Wednesdays, while ONE LIFE TO LIVE will air on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Check it out below:

For close to two years we have been working passionately to bring first run premium content to an online platform with the creation of brand-new versions of the two iconic series, All My Children and One Life To Live. There was no precedent for this effort- we had no history-no barometer for how our fans would respond. We always knew there would quickly be new insights into how audiences would respond to our shows and this new platform, and that our ability to adapt quickly to audience needs would ultimately determine the long-term success of the shows and our mission. This is a new medium, a new time and we have always planned to make changes quickly by listening to you, our fans and customers.

Prospect Park's Rich Frank's Message To Fans
Prospect Park co-chief Rich Frank tells Soap Opera Digest that a big advertising push will help attract viewers to the relaunches of ALL MY CHILDREN and ONE LIFE TO LIVE on April 29th ("You'll see ads in print and on television") but hopes that fans will help spread the word, as well. "We would hope that all of them would call their friends to make sure they watch them! The way to ensure that this is going to work, because we're really totally advertiser-supported is, is that we've got to get the eyeballs to be watching this. They've done it before; it's just a matter of rallying the troops and getting them to watch. That's all I could ask them to do at this point. We're going to try to give them the best we've got and if they will support us and tweet and Facebook and use all the social media and everything just to make sure that everybody knows that on the 29th, we're going to be back, that would be great."

Retiree’s specialty is artificial critters, made to order

The producers of ATWT needed an eastern diamondback rattlesnake to perch — just for a flash — on an unsuspecting character’s car seat during an island vacation episode. Morgan never saw it, but his sister did.
