• In the Pacific Time Zone (from December 1975 to March 1977), ABC's lineup had its game shows aired in the morning, while the 12 Noon to 3 PM block featured The Edge of Night, Ryan's Hope, All My Children, One Life to Live, and General Hospital in succession. After April 1977, ABC's Pacific Time Zone daytime schedule began matching that of its 10 AM-3:30PM Central Time schedule.
