- They are ALL here, including the special custom intro for the 40th anniversary episode last year. From 1971 to 2011...I've compiled one file with every AMC opening for all you diehard AMC-ers. God Bless Pine Valley!

The earlier theme songs remind me of when I would stay home from school. And my mom used to always watch All My Children at 1PM. I miss those days very, very much!!!!!!!!
Michael H I think a tear just came out my eye. (sighs)
Me too, the earlier theme reminds me of good times.
Good Memories
@@jonimichalski69 The daytime serials really had an effect on previous generations, but sadly faded away. The shows alienated their loyal viewers to try and be more hip to new audiences and look where it got them.
same ~(^..)
RIP David (Canary), James (Mitchell), Elieen (Herlie) Ruth (Warrick) and Frances (Heflin). Without you, we wouldn't have met the characters of Adam, Palmer, Myrtle, Phoebe or Mona. Adam and Palmer are plotting to out do each other, Myrtle and Mona are having tea and Phoebe is hammered. Who knew soap operas could take place in heaven? Thank you for the memories, and to Agnes for her hard work. Without her, we would never know these characters or the shows which hold a special place in our hearts.
Miss Dani The Nanny Amen
We just lost John Callahan this year
Agnes Nixon is deceased too Thank u well said Miss Dani
Thank you, Rosemary Prinz, for making this classic show a great success! You are beautiful, Rosemary!
Amen you are so right
Rest In Peace John Callahan December 23, 1953-March 28, 2020
So sad that Eva and Kayla couldn’t even be with him in the hospital when he passed.
@@1Cheytown 😭
Darnell Williams was even BETTER looking when he came back after 20 years! The years were kind to him! Fine looking man.
Yep
I remember them all and miss every one of these actors and their characters. Where's The Chew today?ABC did us fans dirty! Long live Pine Valley!
Brian Henson The chew ended in June 2018 after 7 years.
The Chew got yanked off the air. Thank God.
The Chew had some good ideas. Lotta simple recipes for regular folks.
Chef Batali got caught with
his fingers in the pie.
I will be forever bitter at ABC for canceling AMC & OLTL!! I grew up watch both shows and now I'm subjected to watching old episodes on You Tube!! Hell have no fury like a soap fan scorned!!!
I agree. Loved both shows.
LBF522 yes what's on now is trash, they can't hold a candle to these soaps!!!!
U got that right. My sister and I are third generation soap fans. Soaps never should have ended.
Idoljunky32 o i gree with u i watch amc when i was little in high school and out of high school i miss my grandma we watch it all the tim
Time
AMC definitely had some of the best theme songs!
ya know in my EARLIEST childhood memories i recall this theme and thinking OH NO BORING TV SHOW TIME... but damn they had some catchy music that i still enjoy today.
Jyung Woo u know I thought the very same thing too. After school and during the summer sometimes me and my brothers would have to go to our grandma's house while our mom still was at work. I always wanted to watch cartoons. But now that I'm older I greatly appreciate these shows because I almost completely missed out on them (now 32 years old). Thank you ABC for these shows
Yep the best
@@Juicyjitup IKR The dead zone. 😂
AMC would beat any today's soap opera in the honors. In my opinion.
RIP Agnes. AMC and OLTL were brilliant.
Shanika Freeman it would be risky to revive any of those soaps as primetime series given the fact that the web series themselves failed.
Yes they were.AMC & OLTL
were hugely responsible for the success of ABC daytime for many years which was a testament to Agnes Nixon creative genius.
She and Douglas Marland created LOVING. Although not as successful, it was still beautifully written under their guidance.
There's no way you can watch this without crying.
Me too.
It does make you feel a certain way doesn't it.
nope
Nostalgic they need to bring back all my children
I used to watch it with my grandma because I loved Vanessa, it brings back those carefree days when the world wasn’t so shitty
I miss all my friends from Pine Valley every day!!!!!
I missed the actor that played Dixie 2006 she had that stare that look that just wouldn't go away
Supposedly they’re coming out with a prime time show called “pine valley” on abc with Kelly and Marc and (I think) Susan lucci?
I read on Soap News that AMC is returning H. And it will be prime Time. I hope Susan Lucci, Vincent Irizarry returns.
Me too and my mom. I'm going to order it from amazon
@@SuperAllAboutYou that would be great. Could you find out and let me know for certain at one of our emails ? sylvaniagarrett@gmail.com
RIP David Canary (Adam Chandler)
LBF522 don't forget Stewart also
LBF522 cuz David Canary played both Adam and Stewart! They were twin brothers
monkeegirl76 Davy4ever Yes!!
May he rest in peace, from close to where I grew up. An awesome person and actor
All my children baby is coming help my car won't start
...WOAHH; I got Straight GOOSEBUMPS when listening to these themes; haven't heard them since the EARLY 90's when I was VERY Young!; my mom was GLUED to this soap; back then I liked it Too!😄❤️...I remember when moms would get ready for work, she would preset the VCR to record AMC, and gave us a STERN WARNING NOT TO TOUCH THE T.V
Until AFTER Her "Stories" record! LMFAO!!!!🤣🤣🤣😄❤️...so many memories...😄❤️🙏
❤️... the theme at 0:40 Game me INTENSE Goosebumps!; haven't heard that one since I was REAL little!!😃; but I DEFINITELY do remember it!😊👍
These literally want to make me cry. Such good memories of my childhood.
That theme starting at 00:59 is gut wrenching. Almost makes me want to cry. Such nostalgia.
I’m so with you on that. I remembered growing up on the island of St. Croix and we didn’t have cable.This is one of the shows that we watched with my mom every afternoon.
first I get goosebumps then I get the strong urge to cry. Right there with you.
IKR!
Yea this was the OG theme song!!
I love that the intro at 9:03 is like “ah screw it. Let’s use some production footage of the cast laughing their asses off.”
I still miss this show every day....
+spinnernet1 I think you are referring to Scott Chandler the Adopted Son of Stuart Chandler. He didn't last long and when he got let go, he didn't bore any ill will. He even admitted he couldn't hold a Candle to Daniel Cosgrove who returned after playing Bill Lewis on Guiding Light.
I Miss All My Children As Well.....Bring Back Soapnet To Watch Old Episodes
They just had to replace it and the other ABC soaps with mediocre talk shows that regurgitate the same formula over and over. I totally understand the contributing factors but still… 🙄
That being said, at least General Hospital is hanging on but its quality appears to have declined in the past several years, so it might be on its way out, too.
I do too
No, I Love All My Children As Well.....Bring Back Soapnet To Watch Old Episodes
I miss AMC so much!! RIP Adam!! I will always love you!!
RIP Ray McDonnell, David Canary, Eileen Hurley, Ruth Warrick, Louis Edmonds, Candice Earley, Matthew Cowles, Mary Fickett, John Callahan, and James Mitchell. You are all missed.
And Frances Heflen.
ANGES NIXON
And now Alec Musser. 😢
This is my favorite u tube site....my mom passed in 2015 and i dont have a grave to visit...when i am feeling sad or miss her even more i come here... everyday for 30 years she got ready for work at 2 pm to these themes...they are a reflection of my childhood with these themes in the background....she only cried twice...one of them was the September day when AMC aired its final show .. RIP dear mother...
Me and my friends used to cut class to go down to ABC and wait for them to come out and get autographs! OLTL too they were down the street...I was in elementary school when first show came on watched with my mom...I remember trying to get a good picture with those rabbit ears!
My mother watched this show RELIGIOUSLY
AMC at 1pm and OLTL at 2. Those were the days. These shows were always in my life in one form or another my mom watched them when I was a kid and when I graduated high school I got really into them. Unfortunately I only got about 10 years before they were cancelled and I was heartbroken. Then Hulu teased us all and ripped them away again. Nothing can take their place. It's a tragedy to lose these shows. Nothing else comes close
Yes. All My Children at 1pm, One Life To Live at 2 pm, General Hospital at 3pm,
Oprah at 4pm, was how it used to go.
Am I a minority:? I liked AMC and OLTL;;;I HATED General Hospital !!!! @@RR-kb4uc
Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos are still working on giving us a revival. Don't give up hope.
Wow what a compilation....lots of memories packed into one video...
I watched AMC from the beginning years until about 1985. I do remember the early theme songs. We would watch AMC in college in the student union!!!
The power of music! How it can stir up feelings and memories is incredible!
Thank you for cutting this together. Incredible trip down memory lane for me and my mom!
This brings back so many memories! I'm actually a little teary-eyed watching this. Nostalgia...
Still miss AMC and OLTL every day.
Yes! The 80''s and 90's fan of both but oltl contuined to shine until the end by 2008-9 amc became blahh! Did love the reboots on hulo but it dud not last :( 2013
I love the theme starting at 6:07!
Attention! Lecom bosses of 1809 sharecare home!!!!! Darnell, on first shift keeps yelling profanities at the tenants!!!!!!
Of all the different versions this was my favorite
I missed this show everyday....
!
Me too Kenny Ryman
I can't stop Grinning & Crying "My Pine Valley Family" Will someone please tell Angie it's okay to age like the rest of us. ☺
Ikr. Glad her face isn't all torn up like lotta of the others actresses.👺
They need to cancel The view and bring back AMC!
Akera Reese Unfortunately, the View is there to stay. If it does end in some extraordinary circumstance that can warrant a cancellation, it might be replaced by a newscast or another talk show with a similar concept. On the other hand, the soap opera genre is pretty much dying out (availability of the internet, higher employment among the target audience leading to less time at home, among other reasons), so there’s even less hope for an AMC return.
Akera Reese thank you.
It's actually the Chew that cancelled All my Children. At least from where I live that's the case.
Akera Reese yes they really do
Why?
Wow, thank you for putting this together! I used to tape the show for the longest time and never skipped over the intro because I loved to watch and listen to it. Listening to this here even made my eyes well up for some reason. Certain ones really touch me, almost like they are reminding me of a certain time of my life from when I started watching AMC. The intro even got my daughter's attention as an infant each time I would start up the VCR. :) Thanks again!
I almost cried watching this! So many memories. AMC was the first soap I ever watched, I was 7 back then and it was when Kendall first came to Pine Valley. Over the years I stopped watching but kept up with the happenings. I will never forgive ABC and Disney for cancelling such an important part of television! Just sad :-(
I DONT KNOW WHO YOU ARE BUT I SIMPLY LOVE THIS...BROUGHT BACK TOO MANY MEMORIES!!
Well one can only hope that the revival Kelly and Mark’s production company is planning will maintain some of what the show was known for.
"the great and the least, the rich and the poor, the weak and the strong, in sickness and in health, in joy and sorrow and tragedy and triumph you are ALL MY CHILDREN"
So loved❤️
I love the theme songs from 6:07 ❤
I've been watching from that season and I miss it so much 😭❤
As another kid who's mom watched ABC soaps until the early 2000's I'm actually quite impressed they used the same theme song (2 songs?) for a majority of the show's lifespan. OLTL and GH always changed their songs every few years so the nostalgia doesn't have the same hit as AMC does.
that song reminds me of my childhood in the 80s . my mom use to watch it. Great memories
See was a sweet woman who changed the world of soaps she did a wonderful job with amc and oltl the best soaps ever period
All my children the daytime soap opera of all time on ABC
Agreed. Thanks, Agnes Nixon for creating it.
Interesting musical evolution.
I started watching All My Children in 1981 when I was seven years old.
I didn’t blink through that video montage. I remember each opening. Love & miss them all ❤️
Wow.... I haven't heard this music/theme song sense I was extremely young.... I'm going clear back to memories before I was old enough to go to school. The early 1970's... I can burst into tears for all the family I lost sense then....
I loved John Callahan as Edmund.
R.I.P
Gosh I wish it was still on, Rest in Piece Agnes 😥, U created several awesome soap operas, I sure miss One Life to live also, 💜 😥
I miss this show so so much my mom always watched all my children's so I grew up with them they're like my family hope that one day we'll see AMC again
Thanks for this ! Ahh takes me back to the years 1989 - 1997 when I watched, had to tape it on my VHS to watch, as I was just outta high school, then off to college, and got married in 97. Miss those days ! RIP Matthew Cowles aka Billy Clyde!
I work for a local abc station I will see if my boss can agree to repeat all the episodes from 2000-2011
Andre Lacy or have them.make new episodes
Beautiful memories when will they be back. Miss ALL MY children mine and my late MOTHER favorite show.
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing this video. Bit brought back a lot of great memories for me.🤗🤗
Ayo my moms would KILL YOU if her stories didn’t tape at 1pm Mon-Fri!!!!
😂
Mine too lol!!
Lol yesssss 😂
Mr. LaCarter,
Thank you so much for posting this. I’m not a soap opera fan, but the show had wonderful theme music and, living with soap fans over the years, one of whom (1988-1991) was an AMC fanatic, I did enjoy my share of episodes. Many years later, I would occasionally turn on the TV at 1 p.m., just to hear AMC’s brilliant opening theme.
Nicholas Stix, Uncensored
Hearing the intro reminds me of my childhood. My mom watched this and Days of Our Lives.
I saw the very first episdoe with my mom in 1970... I was 4. Grew up watching with my grandmother and great grandmother as they babysat me. LIke you... SOOOOO many memories. Makes me tear up a little too. NIce to hear it has the same effect on someone else :) Thank you for sharing~
Absolutely beautiful! This brought back a lot of memories of the only soap I ever watched and dearly loved! Thank you!!!
Rip to John who played Edmund. He will be missed. I miss all my children being on.
RIP Agnes Nixon & Thank You
The theme starting at 41 is what I remember, flipping channels one afternoon, and it came on.
I was hooked on the theme---didn't follow the show, but that theme was sweet and sentimental to me.
I can still remember it as if it were yesterday, some hundred years ago or so.
This is a reminder that we really dont know or miss what we have till it's gone.
So nostalgic -- brings back great memories when soaps dominated daytime tv
I watched AMC for nearly 35 years. At home. in college and then at AT&T's break lounge.I have so many autographed pictures of them. The original Tara and Phil both passed away in the past two years. So many of them are gone. I feel like I grew up in Pine Valley
Only Richard hatch passed Karen lyn gorney is alive
3:56 is my FAV version. Quiet, brooding and contemplative.
They should of never took this show off the air it was the best now all they have on Daytime tv is court shows tv has really changed
It was a ratings grab
Court shows and talk shows are what constitutes daytime tv on the big 4 networks nowadays. Only 4 soaps remain and this has been the case since January 2012. Cable television and streaming services allow people to watch reality television, which have overtaken soaps as the main form of daytime television entertainment since 2009. Although the soap schedule has remained unchanged since 2012, come the end of the 2020s we may no longer have any such programs between 12 pm and 4 pm each day. The last soap opera to air outside that timeframe ended in 2009. General Hospital, which aired at 3:00 pm for most of its history, moved to 2:00 pm in September 2012, although nine stations reversed those changes in 2014. Days of our Lives was renewed as expected for another season in November 2019, but it might not continue after 2021. NBC might be the first big three network to cease production on soap operas by the midpoint of next decade, and CBS and ABC could follow.
This music has been my comfort sleep playlist ! Brings me back to being a kid growing up with it on all the time with my mom. “Ima gonna tell my kids the kardashian show is all my children”
Kudos and thanks. I became a fan in early 1976 when I was home from school with the flu and I had to watch what my mother had on. The show was still on 30 minutes long then. I came to take it for granted, that it would always be there. We all learned better.
This is so cool thanks for putting the themes all in one....great memories....I miss All my children....
My friend Katrina and I loved All My Children.
41 Years Of All My Children The Daytime Soap Opera Of All Time Here On ABC
Also, just in case you are curious. The top 3 states (from viewers of this video) are 1. New York 2. California 3. Illinois
And it appears most of you are in your 40s and 50s.
Just wanted to share...
John LaCarter I watched amc and OLTL since I can remember. Almost 50 and love the video you put together.
I'm 36 and remember coming home from school about noon and my mom would have this on... Along with oltl, and gh of course. Then inside edition came on and I went outside... Ah... Good times.
This is going to sound weird, but for me this video of all the openings of AMC is the best very-early birthday gift I ever saw, I’m turning 14 in 4-3 days. And I wish that someday someone would write a storyline that would bring back AMC. Am I right?
I'm 42 so not only my mother but all my babysitter's watched it every day. As I got older my mom made me "Tape" it by setting the timer on the VCR or recording it manually. I easily became a fan. My fav characters were Jesse, Tad, Trevor, & Jackson. For the females it was Erica, Dixie, Brooke, Angie, & Hailey. Great memories I will never forget.
I'm 28 and I remember watching AMC when I was little with my mother and grandmother. I remember I would watch an episode then get ready for kindergarten class because my class started around 2 or so. This brings back so much nostalgia for me.
my fav was the white background... childhood memories
Love it, best soap series ever
Awesome memories! Thanks for posting! I will always remember the name "Brian Frons" as the ABC moron who cancelled my favorite soaps...
Agnes Nixon is the best! Thanks for making this compilation... i literally cried my eyes out the entire time... so much sentiment tied into one video😭❤️❤️
Wow, this was great! Thank you! The last one I had tears running down my face. I miss it so much. It's just not the same now.
Oh my God I miss my show!!!!! This and One Life To Live.
There will NEVER EVER NEVER be any show that compared to them EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!
Thanks for the memories!
I love watching all my children I wish it was still going on
literally crying. Thank you for bringing back so many sweet, sweet memories.
I'm sitting here literally crying watching these intros....especially from the 80's and up I'm 50 years old and I can remember the ABC soaps being a part of my life since I was little.... Damn it was a Blow when they canceled them, I have never recovered from it...🥺😭😭🥺 Long live ABC Soaps!!!
Thank you for taking me down memory lane 😊
My favorite theme is at 4:39...the one I most remember when my mom would watch her ABC soaps
absolutely love it !!! Thank you very much...brings back so many memories !!
i wish they brough back. All my children😊
I remember as a kid my mom used to watch this show.
I may not have followed it for the 40 years like some of you, but I had watched it since I was 2, so AMC and Pine Valley was a part of My Childhood, And The Kanes and Martins were like old friends and though it's been revived on the Internet, and all of the veterans Julia Barr, David Canary, Cadi McClain, Jill Larson, Ray MacDonnel, Debbi Morgan etc. are giving incredible performances, most of the New "talents" are just pretty faces who can't act. I like it, I don't Love it like I use to
I miss my grandmother when I see this. We used to watch All My Children together.
Wow great job, I had forgotten there were so many different openings - and I watched the show (not quite from the beginning) but for many, many years - I think the time has come for this show to get a Reboot ! It should never, never have been cancelled to begin with. ABC slit it's own Daytime throat by doing that - they never even experimented with shortened inceptions of the show - I would like to see ALL MY CHILDREN return once and for all - the time has come!
ALL MY CHILDREN was an American icon that I grew up with from as early as I can remember with my mother watching it up way into my adulthood watching it until it ended with my longterm girlfriend. Thank you for making this and bringing the memories back. My favorite was and will always be Erica Kane (Susan Lucci was awesome in this role!!!!) So sad ABC cancelled it for the cooking show The Chew. LONG LIVE THE MEMORIES OF ALL MY CHILDREN!
It was a changing time. It if wasn't The Chew, it would have been some other show.
Mr LaCarter, very neat and useful compilation ! My band is playing a benefit that actor Walt Willey (Jackson Montgomery on the show) is supporting, and we are learning the theme song so we can introduce him to the 'All My Children' overture. Thank you !!
I love All My Children’s Theme song, OLTL Theme Song and OLTL show. OLTL was the best Soap Opera out of them all💯💚♥️
Great stuff!!!! Thanks so much for compiling these & posting. Brought back a lot of great memories!
This brought back a lot of memories! I remember watching this with my grandmother every afternoon. It was one of her "stories".
I loved All The AMC Theme Songs. They should have never cancelled AMC and OLTL They were great Soaps to Watch.
Times and viewership in the daytime sector in the 2000s and 2010s had changed significantly. Therefore, ABC had to keep up with the trend of changing times. Basically, no one seemed interested in AMC or One Life to Live anymore.
@@tyrese3745 That's Sad I loved Watching AMC & OLTL.
Goosebumps. I recalled watching some episodes on tv under the channel that used to be around Soapnet. Even the episode where a woman claimed to be the girl's mother was taking her on an adventure "You, me and the ride," she said.
Back when everyone was in to soap's
