Colby Chandler of "All My Children" is getting a makeover ... sort of. Ambyr Childers, who's played Adam's (David Canary) once-spoiled-now-saintly daughter since 2006, is leaving, and Colby's been recast.

Starting May 7, Colby's going to look like 25-year-old newcomer Brianne Moncrief. A graduate of Fordham University's performing-arts program, Brianne has a lot of stage credits and a "Sopranos" episode to her name.

Man they didn't waste any time did they? Anyway I'm not at all upset to see AC go. Just hope that BM has the acting chops as well as the looks to play Adam Chandler and Liza Colby's daughter. The last thing this show needs is another hair model.

This really disappoints me. I know SID mentioned she was pretty much on her way out a while ago, but I thought she was safe. I didn't like her as Colby at first, but she really grew into a great actress. I'm saddened to see her go. Hopefully she'll turn up on GH as Serena.

<_< I have to say I am pissed. I loved Ambyr. <_<

I know, there wasnt really a need to recast her. AC was doing a fine job in the role and was perfect as the daughter of Adam and Liza. It wasnt like she was a horrible actress or had opted to leave, and it wasnt like fans didnt like her (or she'd have been gone long ago), it just reeks of a recasting for the sake of recasting.

Btw, does anyone see a resemblance between AC and Leighton Meester from Gossip Girl?

People at ABC should spend more time taking a closer look at their ratings and the HWs instead of worrying about recasting Colby.

Too stupid for words. They should have done a Colby/Dre/Cassandra triangle and put Frankie with someone older. They had to pair Jesse's son with Liza's daughter. Hate it. Stupid. What else is new?

I hope Amber goes on to bigger and better soon.

The pairing of Jesse's son and Liza's daughter would be a smart idea. Just one little problem...FRANKIE WAS BEEN BORN 15 YEARS BEFORE COLBY IN REAL TIME! I understand the need to SORAS and de-SORAS from time to time, but the real-time age gap between these two is just too great to ignore. On the other hand, though, I'm not a fan of Amber's, and I'm glad they've at least chosen someone with some acting experience who can keep up with David Canary. Just wishing that the birth timelines made a modicum of sense.
