Report: ABC open to offers to keep  AMC, OLTL alive

As soap fans mobilize to save One Life to Live and All My Children from cancellation, there's a new wrinkle in the mix. A newly published report hints that ABC might be opening to selling one or both soaps to another network.

Might there be more than one life for the now-canceled ABC soaps All My Children and One Life to Live? It's too soon to say, but a published report hints that there could be a glimmer of hope -- albeit a small one as of right now -- for the two shows.

TVGuide is reporting that insiders at ABC have stated that the network would be "willing to entertain offers" from other media outlets that might be interested in licensing All My Children and/or One Life to Live or even buying the soaps outright.

However, the magazine notes that ABC doesn't expect to get any offers for the soaps, and representatives for the Oprah Winfrey Network and the Hallmark Channel have apparently said they have no interest in either soap.
