It’s usually pretty simple: when they can find something that does better for less money, they will replace it.
Creating a whole new soap opera is probably way more expensive than a daily talk show, especially if it’s hosted by no name people who can’t demand a huge salary (but those people also won’t draw any ratings).
It's ABC's news division that will take the hit if they just give up on something under their banner. So of course they're going to avoid the negative publicity of dropping one of their own programs. I was just thinking outside the box. If CBS can ditch The Talk for their new soap Beyond The Gates, so can ABC in bringing in another soap. Maybe they can dig up another celebrity to do another talk show. But that would be weird having 3 talk shows surrounding one soap in the afternoon.
