AMC: SoapNet confirms Colby recast

[dragonflies]

Ugh this is totally idiotic. Ambyr was great as Colby.

So what is Jake now going to be older than Tad, cause he was once Colby's father

[NYC123]

Awww.

I am really going to miss her!

[Port Oak Valley]

I know this is an AMC thread, but is GH recasting Serena?

[JackPeyton]

from what i hear they are looking.

tho the one they assume is serna could be Olivia, who Kate mentioned once - most think shes the child of kate/sonny or kate/trevor.

Ambyr Childs is overrated. She was not all that as Colby and I look forward to seeing another actress in the role. I actually dont feel the character is necesary and would rather her be written off to go to college, but I will look at this recast with an open mind

[UKBoi]

I think it's been rumoured for a while now, but I'm not sure.

[detroitpiston]

Amen!

[dragonflies]

Like Ambyr in the role or not, there is NO reason at all to SORAS Colby AGAIN. This is just beyond idiotic

[Adam]

I am disappointed by this move and all in the name of Frankie/Colby. I wish Ambyr well and really enjoyed watching her grow as an actress since her time on the show. I wish her well.

[Cheap21]

Its funny that she's now just about the same age as Babe when Babe was dressing her up as Britney Spears when she was in preschool

[DevotedToAMC]

Darn! I really liked AC in the role....at first, I hated Colby but AC made it possible for her to grow

[Darn]

Oh good, so Frankie won't look like he's diddling little girls anymore. Sure, she'll still be 17 but physically she'll look older! Thank the lord I'm a moron!

Ambyr posted in her blog at her website:

So it sounds like SHE wanted to move on?

[dragonflies]

I think she's trying to save face......
