As a result of Prospect Park’s announcement that it had reduced the amount of episodes aired each week of “All My Children” and “One Life to Live,” FX Canada has announced that it has dropped both soaps from its lineup with reruns of “30 Rock” taking over the timeslot effective Monday, May 20.
In a statement, FX Canada’s parent company, Rogers Media, said, “Due to changes in production beyond our control, FX Canada will no longer be airing ‘All My Children’ and ‘One Life to Live.’ Beginning Monday, May 20, back-to-back episodes of critically-acclaimed series ’30 Rock’ will air from noon to 1 p.m. ET on FX Canada.”
Canada was the only other country outside of the United States which broadcast the soaps. In addition, while both soaps were available via online distribution (Hulu, Hulu Plus and iTunes) in America, FX Canada was the only traditional television platform airing either series.
