Charles Pratt, Jr., whose controversial reign as head writer of ALL MY CHILDREN began in June 2008, has been released from the position. ABC confirms the ouster, but had no further comment. Stay tuned for more details of who will usher the citizens of Pine Valley through their cross-country move in January!

So there might be a tiny glimpse of hope for this show!

It's about fecking time. Can Guza please be next?

AMC is terrible just awful right now.

More turmoil at AMC. It cannot be good.

I'm kinda meh on this news. I liked some of his work, but hated other parts. I wonder who his replacement will be.

About time.

Holy freaking crap! I never would have saw this coming! WOW

I didn't think they'd let him go before the move, or even at all

I keep thinking the show will be cancelled in a year.

Wonder if he'll be going back to GH.

Yeah shocking. But honestly, I celebrated when MM left and the team after. I just cringe when I think who might replace Pratt.

Kay Alden, please come to ABC and write for AMC. Please, please

Bye bye Chucky...

WTF please no. 1 hack there is enough.

Kay Alden, please come to ABC and write for AMC. Please, please

Bye bye Chucky...

Frons didn't like her bible did he?

I bet it was the dreaded focus groups that killed him. Didn't Alden say a couple of years back everything on AMC failed focus groups? I bet it still holds true.

This interests me, as I thought one of the reasons Frons was keeping AMC going was because he liked Pratt. Didn't they have a history together at Santa Barbara?

I know nothing will significantly change with Frons around but I'm hoping AMC might go back to having some heart and some quirkiness, as they had years ago.

I guess those casting spoilers for the anniversary should have told us. No way would Pratt care about bringing them back.

The downside is they could get someone even worse than Pratt.

I keep thinking the show will be cancelled in a year.

Maybe someone felt it was heading that way and that's why Pratt was canned. Cause with him at the helm, the show was surely not going to last after the move

Yeah shocking. But honestly, I celebrated when MM left and the team after. I just cringe when I think who might replace Pratt.

Now now. Worry about what atrocious hire AMC will make tomorrow. Celebrate the Death of Chucky TODAY!
