-ABC has cancelled two of their long-running soap operas - One Life To Live and All My Children. The shows will end in September 2011 and January 2012 respectively. In the past decade NBC has cancelled all soaps except Days of Our Lives, CBS has cancelled all soaps except The Bold and the Beautiful and The Young and the Restless including the historically longest running soap opera - Guiding Light. General Hospital will remain as ABCs final soap and is now the longest running US soap opera. I think the problem is that the US is not adapting their soaps for their audiences. No one is home to watch them and they still run for an hour every weekday. If the soaps came on between 5 and 8 PM only two to three times a week, they'd still be running strong.
-An upcoming episode of GLEE will feature a cover of Rebecca Black's "Friday". It won't be sung by the girls though - Puck, Artie, and Sam will tackle the viral hit.
