Another soap that brings back memories would be Dark Shadows with Barnabus Collins the vampire! And these teenagers think they invented vampire shows! HA!

My mom was also a big As The World Turns fan from when it started in the 1950's, then I got hooked on it as a kid and a teen. I stopped watching it when I went to college, but I was surprised to find out that Bob and Kim were on until the the show ended. And I think the actress who played Nancy Hughes just passed away a few years ago. Unfortunately my mom developed dementia the last 3 years before she passed away, and gradually she had no memory of who the characters were on ATWT, and stopped watching it about a year before she passed away.
So what will Susan Lucci do after All My Children becomes history in a few months? I think she was on the AMC since it started.
