OWN announced today plans to air a mini-marathon of its summer fling consisting of “All My Children” and “One Life to Live.”
As previously reported, both “AMC” and “OLTL” will join the OWN lineup airing Mondays through Thursdays. However, on Monday, July 15, both soaps will launch with a marathon of back-to-back half-hour episodes airing in different timeslots. The first three episodes of “AMC” will air from 12:00-1:30 PM ET/PT, with the third episode repeating at 1:30 PM ET/PT. From 2:00 PM-3:30 PM, “OLTL” will air its first three episodes with the third episode repeating at 3:30 PM ET/PT.
Episodes of “AMC” will then begin airing in its regularly scheduled timeslot at 1:00 PM ET/PT beginning Tuesday, July 16. “OLTL” will begin its regularly scheduled run at 3:00 PM ET/PT on that day as well. Both soaps will air Mondays through Thursdays for 10 weeks (40 episodes), but it is expected that if the runs are successful the network might pick them up for a longer term. Currently only episodes that have already aired via Hulu, Hulu Plus, iTunes and iTunes Canada are scheduled to air on OWN. Brand new episodes of “AMC,” “OLTL” and “MORE” will continue being distributed every Monday via the online platforms.
