Brown/Getty Images(PASADENA, Calif.) — The final episode of the long-running ABC soap opera One Life to Live airs this Friday. It will be replaced by the new lifestyle program The Revolution — a change that has upset many One Life to Live fans.

Two of the hosts of The Revolution, Tim Gunn and Ty Pennington, urge viewers of One Life to Live to give their own show a try when it premieres next week. At the TV critics winter press tour in Pasadena, Calif., on Monday, they both said they’re not replacing the daytime soap; they’re just offering something different. Pennington said, “You guys know about Extreme Makeover, you know, that show got cancelled too. And that’s something that’s very, very special to me. But, you know, it’s about change. And The Revolution is certainly about change.”
