#AnotherWorld (1964-1999, NBC) existed in what we would today call a "universe.”
Characters crossed over w/ sister shows like #AsTheWorldTurns, #TheGuidingLight and #ForRicherForPoorer + migrated to spinoffs #Somerset (1970–76) and #Texas (1980-82) and back!
And characters lived on elsewhere after the parent show was cancelled!
