~ All My Children Fans ~ What's new in Pine Valley? *Rebecca returning as Greenlee* Part 2

[Donna]

I saw a commercial that said either babe or Kenndal was gonna be the killers next vicitm. I wonder who it will be

i saw that too. I am going to guess it's babe. line of thinking: she is newly married and wants to start a family, lol. I think i'd rather it be kendall, all she does these days is fight with the women, whine to zach or yell at ryan.

I would rather it be Kendall too! She drives me crazy. She's so Me ME ME!!

 

[goofy's friends]

I think Kendall is one of the only ones that keeps this show interesting. She's like a female Hayward -- can't live with her, can't live without her!

By victim, does that mean one of them will be dead???? or just attacked?

I HATE recasts--can't get past them usually. I would guess that it's a not so major character except that they said we will be furious--OUCH after Dixie.

Retire Erica already--that would be a positive development, but AMC is only out for the negative developments right now. What are they trying to do?? Anger their whole audience!!!!!!! Makes NO sense to me.

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

i agree about getting rid of Erika!!

I soo want Babe gone though!!

It said she would be killed.

I've been watching this show for about 23 years already and I'm ready for Erica to go too!

Well according to my favorite soap site there are more bombshells coming including a recast and a vet being axed. I don't think the so called shake up is over.

On another note the death scene with Dixie and Tad was beautiful.

 

[Aprille]

I didn't get the lo-down, what exactly is the story behind her leaving. I know it was AMC that asked her to leave and wasn't her idea, but WHY?

I assume you're talking about Cady McClain here. She got canned and we'll probably never know the real reason why but all I can say is GOOD RIDDANCE!!!

I found this whole rushed exit a bit fishy so did some scouting around last night and found this thread on an old haunt of mine, Pine Valley Bulletin message boards. Very interesting reading:

Cady McClain's SOW interview

Camfan's first post to the thread sums up my feelings quite nicely:

My two cents for what it's worth is that Cady has used AMC as a revolving door over the last 18 years and doesn't always talk highly of a show that's given her fame. It's always bugged me. Although I would have liked to see her find Kate - I think it's great that AMC beat her to the punch this time.

 

[Aprille]

Cady McClain "Dixie" is a class act! Here is an exerpt from her blog...

http://www.cadymcclain.com/blog/

Her blog is pure spin, as are most blogs. Life through Cady's eyes.

You can't believe a word out of the woman's mouth.

Doesn't anyone remember her last exit from AMC? She said she needed to get away from soaps, spread her wings. She then immediately started working on another soap. Now that's what I call spreading those wings. Fly, baby, fly.

Yes, I agree MommyMichelle, lets get rid of any of these 2. Also, while they are at it, get rid of ALL the Women on AMC and they can keep ALL the Hunky Men....they could call the show: AMC-hunks! (Mickey's Sunshine-Christine liked the idea!)

Could the recast be JANET, since they say she is coming back??
As far as a vet being axed, i really hope it's Erika, but it would never happen, so i'm not sure who it could be!

Could be Jackson/Myrtle/Adam/Jr/Jamie/ERICA-would be nice/Kendall/Babe thats my list and I am sticking to it!

Yes, can we say YUM!! They could have a new woman on every week, and kill her off, by---- making her eat Peanutbutter/banana Pancakes!!!!!

If they got rid of Erica, the show would have so much more money to work with, I'm sure she is a HUGE drain on the salary budget.

I wasn't a Ditsie lover but I was just starting to kind of like her and to see Tad happy was a good thing. He doesn't play a good "miserable" character. He's so much better when he's happy.

About the pb/pancake thing, how exactly did the killer know that Winnie would use that jar of pb exclusively to make the pancakes? I'm thinking that Winnie didn't use the whole jar!!!

And once again, if I get sick PLEASE don't call the PV paramedics or take me to their hospital. I really don't want a Martin doc working on me!!

 

[luvwinnie]

I don't want to lose Babe OR Kendall...RYAN can go, however, but that won't happen now with the whole Emma thing I assume. How long til Tad finds out about the baby AND about Kate?

 

[auntie]

If it's gonna be Babe or Kendall..my vote is for Kendall. Can't stand her boney arms..just like Erica..put some sleeves on these people! It's January!....I'd also like to see "Spike" renamed so that it doesn't sound as if he was someone's pet dog. He could go and live with Ryan, Annie, and Emma. Now that would probably be too normal for this show. That's just my take on it.

As far as a veteran to show being axed...I hope it's not Tad...because frankly then I think I'm done with it. I'm barely hanging on through these lame storylines of late..and if it's him..I've got no reason(other than talking to you nice people!) to watch.
Erica should be placed on recurring status until or if they can develop a story for her that doesn't make a near 60 year old woman look like a teenage twit. How many times in 30 odd years can we hear..."Erica you are beautiful..and I can't live without you"...here's the deal for whoever is writing this. OPEN YOUR EYES! It will help to actually SEE her if you want to write a story for her. While she is an attractive woman..she is NOT a spring chicken. She is also extremely short...no fault of her own..but it's been insane that she's been portrayed as a model...(that was way back and dumb..but always bugged me too..the woman looks like she is 4ft. something! Get real..she'd be a model in the land of Oz.) The only time they come close to having her deal with a real issue..is if she falls of the wagon..please..does every woman of a certain age have to have a problem with pills or booze to be interesting. Apparently so ..according to AMC. By the way I laughed my butt off when they had her be the Las Vegas show girl...how funny was that? As if that could or would ever happen. Again...hello ...anyone home at AMC...open your eyes! She is a Mom, Grandma. Now I'm not saying she needs to be in a rocking chair..but lets' get her out off the kickline squad at Pine Valley High School! It's embarrassing already.

EXACTLY!

i watch OLTL on occasion and i am thinking that on the show Erica is about the age of Dorian and Vicky and look how much more dignified and elegant they dress them!~!

Too funny! LAND OF OZ!!!!
