  • Good point. It did debut in early January of 1970.

  • LOL-I thought of this opening out of the blue today, and had to look it up. I've always wondered who that random woman was when they turned the page! She scared me (I was four).

  • @smichelle65 That was Rosemary Prinz who was one of Soaps Top Actresses as Penny Hughes on As The World Turns. I think they did that so they could bring in new viewers.

  • Everything now on TV happens so fast. When you heard this theme music you know it was time to stop everything and tune into the story. They told stories back in the day.

  • @tallulah1961 Most of the soaps that were live throughout the '50s and '60s, switched to taping their shows somewhere around 1967-68 (with the exception of ATWT and "The Edge of Night", which continued run live through the end of '75, when ATWT expanded to an hour and EON moved from CBS to ABC; they were the last two soaps to make the transition). When AMC debuted in 1970, taping had already become the norm.

  • Facts: "All My Children" was NEVER aired live. It was given the green light in 1968, with final casting completed by September 1969. Taping (or filming - I'm not clear on this) began in October 1969, and the first episode aired January 5, 1970.

  • does anyone remember when soap operas

    were on the radio?

  • @TimothySEnglish AMC was always recorded on tape, but the opening here is not from 1969.

  • @tallulah1961 GL switched to tape in 1968.

  • This is NOT from 1969, and it is not even AMC's first title sequence. AMC's original opening, used for the first month, was shot on videotape instead of film and used a different book.
