All My Children

"The Great and the Least The Rich and the Poor The Weak and the Strong In Sickness and in Health In Joy and Sorrow In Tragedy and Triumph You are All My Children" All My Children is a daytime serial that airs every weekday on the ABC Broadcasting Network. Premiering on January 5th, 1970, the series is set in Pine Valley, Pennsylvania, a town that, while quiet and calm on the surface, is truly the backdrop for the romances, schemes, scandals, trials, and tribulations of the cast of one of the most well-known and popular daytime dramas of all time. The series was created by Agnes Nixon (also the creator of other historic daytime serial One Life to Live), and currently airs at 1:00 P.M. (12:00 P.M. Central Time). The series has won the Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Drama Series in 1992, 1994, and 1998. The series still retains two original cast members, Susan Lucci (Erica) and Ray MacDonnell (Joe).
