Today in 1976 — The daytime #SoapOpera SOMERSET ended its 6 1/2 year run on NBC.
The first #AnotherWorld spinoff was written (for 2 1/2 years) by mystery writer #HenrySlesar, who did double duty writing #TheEdgeOfNight. (Both were produced by Procter & Gamble).
After SOMERSET, star #JoelCrothers joined the cast of EDGE!

Today in 1984 — The delightfully dark soap opera #TheEdgeOfNight ended its run after 28 years.
After more than 7,000 mystery-filled episodes, it ended...with a cliffhanger!
