All My Children

1 9 7 0 - Current (USA)

First airing on Monday January 5, 1970, this long-running ABC soap concerned itself with  the lives of the many incumbents of the Chandler family and the Martin family who were involved in a long running rivalry with the Chandler's.

The show has never been afraid to tackle the odd controversial subject in it's time and was the first daytime soap to air the issue of abortion. 

As is typical in long-running soaps, inter-personal relationships and marriages are so frequent and complex that characters end up with hyphenated surnames longer than the average firm of lawyers - such as Erica Kane Martin Brent Cudahy Chandler or Brooke English Cudahy Chandler Martin Martin !
