** ''Edge'' was the number 2 rated daytime serial in the late 1960s and early 1970s...until Creator/{{CBS}} moved the show to an earlier timeslot in 1972 (averted, perhaps, in that P&G demanded the timeslot switch). Ratings tanked in the new timeslot, so that when Creator/{{CBS}} needed a half-hour on its schedule to expand AsTheWorldTurns in 1975, ''Edge'' left the CBS schedule.

** Averted, in that Creator/{{ABC}}, despite the show's low ratings, was willing to continue production of the show beyond 1984; P&G pulled the plug on the show because, with the show's low clearance rate, it was losing money for P&G.
* TheOtherDarrin: Just like any other SoapOpera, characters were recast regularly. Most notably, the main character Mike Karr was played by three actors during the show's run.
