Beloved soap opera All My Children eyeing a comeback in the most unexpected way

As a dedicated gamer who’s spent countless hours navigating the dramatic landscapes of Pine Valley during my daytime soap opera marathons, hearing about the potential return of All My Children as Lifetime movies has me more than excited – it’s got me buzzing like a supercharged Gameboy Advance!


It seems that “All My Children” may return, but in an unexpected manner as fans might anticipate.

According to TVLine’s recent report, it seems that Lifetime is considering reviving “All My Children” not as a regular television series but as a collection of TV movies instead! At this stage, specifics are scant, but it looks like these new TV movies might be part of a franchise on the network, offering a trip back to Pine Valley and featuring familiar characters from the daytime show.

Based on recent news, discussions about reviving the old ABC daytime drama are only preliminary at this stage, meaning no decisions have been made just yet. However, there’s a strong sense that once fans learn about these talks, Lifetime might easily gather support for the project. For years, fans have eagerly anticipated the return of the show in some form, and it’s expected that they would warmly welcome TV movies set in Pine Valley.

Reviving the “All My Children” franchise could be brilliantly done by turning it into a Lifetime movie series, given that it originally concluded on ABC in 2011 and ended officially in 2013 after a short web series run.

LifeTime films are recognized for serving up scrumptious, extravagant drama filled with numerous unforeseen surprises, which is precisely what viewers have always appreciated about daytime soaps like “All My Children.” Reviving the series as a LifeTime movie franchise would be an ideal approach to reconnect fans with the characters of Pine Valley they cherished, while also introducing new actors to keep the storyline engaging and dynamic.

It’s worth noting that Disney has shown interest in returning to the world of All My Children before, as suggested by recent reports on TVLine. In fact, ABC previously attempted a comeback with a primetime version of the series called Pine Valley. This indicates that the network is keen on revitalizing this beloved franchise.

We can only hope that this particular project will move forward and can’t wait to see which former stars might sign on to return for the Lifetime movies, top of the list being the face of the franchise: Queen of Daytime Susan Lucci!
