A half-hour mystery serial that ran for 28 years, Edge of Night revolved around the Midwestern city of Monticello and the adventures of assistant district attorney Mike Karr and his wife Sara Lane. Rather than focus on the usual soap opera storylines, Edge of Night regularly engaged in whodunit murder mysteries, cops and robbers action, and showcased some of the most delicious and memorable villainesses in all of daytime including Stephanie Martin and Pamela Stewart as well as the supercouple Adam Drake and Nicole Travis. Edge of Night also has the distinction of airing on two networks, CBS from 1956-1975 and ABC from 1975-1984.
