NBC CANCELS ANOTHER WORLD: NBC executives announced Monday morning that the network is canceling the soap opera Another World after 35 years on the air; the show's final episode airs June 25.
The serial, which has been foundering in the ratings for more than a decade, was created for Procter & Gamble Productions by industry pioneer Irna Phillips and one of her protegees, Young and the Restless honcho William J. Bell. AW was the first soap to expand to an hour, and even ran 90 minutes for a time back in the late '70s. Notable alumni include Anne Heche (ex-Vicky/Marley), Ray Liotta (ex-Joey Perrini), Mary Page Keller (ex-Sally Frame) and Morgan Freeman (ex-Roy Bingham).
