User blog:Cbcarter34/Changes to MyTV Daytime starting Monday

MyTV President of Daytime Barbara Bloom held a press conference today as she announce some changes to MyTV's daytime lineup, including cancelling two soap operas, while adding two more and a game show block. "I'm pleased that All My Children and One Life to Live is doing very well in the ratings, and Emmerdale and EastEnders are pulling in remarkable numbers, but after careful consideration, we decided that it would be best of we end Home and Away and The Neighbours. Ratings were not as high as we have hoped, and both (MyTV CEO) Brian Frons and I agreed that a shake up is in order if we want Love in the Afternoon to be successful," Bloom said.

Fun in the Morning
So the first thing she announced is that MyTV will have a game show block following MyTV News American Morning. "Fun in the Morning" will consist of two game shows.

Lucky Numbers
Lucky Numbers uses the same rules as Bob's Full House and is hosted by former host of ITV's game show Lucky Numbers Shane Richie. Some of the concepts of Lucky Numbers could be seen on a former series that was on The WB: Trump Card.

Hot Seat
Coming from Austrailia as a spin off of Austrailian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, Hot Seat is a faster-paced version of the original version. The version is hosted by Scott Cam

Love in the Afternoon
Bloom also announced that replacing Home and Away and The Neighbours in the block is Passions followed by Dark Shadows

Passions
Taking it's name from the former NBC soap opera, Passions is a remake and unlike the NBC drama will be 30 minutes rather than an hour.

Dark Shadows
Dark Shadows is a revival of the classic ABC serial that aired from 1966-71, with remakes in 1991 (by NBC), 2004 (by the WB), and a 2012 film.

So beginning Monday, the daytime lineup would look like this:
