This Beloved NBC Soap Quietly Returned 10 Years After It Was Canceled

On June 25, 1999, the NBC soap opera Another World came to a dramatic conclusion following 35 years on the air. However, the characters of Bay City lived on in an Another World continuation that many didn’t realize happened.

On May 4, 2009, in honor of the series 45th anniversary and the 10th anniversary of its cancellation, Telenext Media, the media production arm of Procter & Gamble, worked with writer Alina Adams to create Another World Today, an officially sanctioned continuation of the beloved series.

Adams, who previously helped the ABC soap opera Loving transition into The City, picked up her pen and helped bring the characters of Bay City back to life, after having previously worked with Procter & Gamble on the New York Times bestsellers Oakdale Confidential and Jonathan’s Story, two tie-in novels for soap operas As The World Turns and Guiding Light.
