Well I am glad official "word" came from David Canary himself about this. I am excited to see him finish off his stint hand in hand with Julia Barr. I just hope its done right, and not 100% dealing with this long lost son business being discussed in another spoiler thread. Its all been said before, but Bravo David Canary and thank you for 27 years of daytime acting at its finest. No one can fill your's or Adam Chandler's shoes.

It will be fun to see Annie go down, she never belonged in that house anyway.

Long-running, popular black heroine with substantial ties to the canvas or ex-prostitute despised by the audience. Which role would I choose? Cue Jeopardy! theme.

Do you want to try for Double Jeopardy now or shall we turn to Wheel of Fortune?

I know that leaving JR (Jacob Young) as head of the Chandler household will continue to provide the show with many great stories to come.

Only if he's recast.

But forget all that. I actually think that statement sounds very much like DC: classy, generous and positive to a fault. I wish there was something fans could do as a thank you to him. A charity we could give to in his honor or a web page where we could post statements and memories.

Hmmm....

I really think Jacob Young can do it. I just think the show needs to get rid of Eunissa, first. She's whats holding him back. I'm tired of watching this whiney, sloth JR. I know he has cancer, but Marissa is making him EXTRA boring and is dragging him down! No way would JR be as bland as this, if Boreissa weren't in the equation at all.

Not to take anything from David Canary, but Ray MacDonnell deserved a better press release for his retirement.

Even ew.com is giving his retirement coverage:

Interesting. I think that Adam will leave with Brooke (since JB is slated to be on the show for only 3 months), or maybe the show will surprise us and Gloria Marsh will show up or something, LoL. I wonder how his relationship with Annie will end...

Speak not of such foulness, minion of Satan! The Marsh creature also known as She of the Twitching Eyes was vanquished years ago. Do not call forth that evil again, even in jest!

Even if JY can pull it off it's probably not too long before he leaves as well. He was particularly outspoken about the move and he came to AMC, in large part, to work opposite David Canary.

There was once upon a time I would have had faith in Jacob Young to take such a lead role, but that's gone now. He's been phoning it in for a while now...

The Chandler family IMO will be dead with David Canary/Adam gone. Something that could save it or at least keep it going would be to bring back Skye/Robin Christopher. She is the most Adam like. I'd love to see Skye come in and run Chandler Enterprises.... love to see her and Annie face off.

Sadly, either Robin has washed her hands of ABC... or ABC has washed their hands of her....

I don't blame her, but what the hell is wrong with them? Robin Christopher was wasted for the last few years of her GH run, her OLTL run was a complete waste of time. ABC, BRING SKYE HOME!

If they're being literal and Adam really reunites with an ex. I hope that means he and Brooke re-marry before he leaves

I wonder if Adam catches Annie and Scott in bed together? I can't imagine what other kind of "Scandalous" end to his marriage there could be.

As much as I love Adam and DC, this is hardly surprising given his age and the fact that NY is his home. I am glad he went to LA long enough to give his character a proper ending. I also hope he gets back with Brooke. She was probably the love of his life

"According to ABC, fans can expect a "scandalous end" to Adam and Annie's marriage and a reunion between Adam and one of his former ex-wives. The network also promises that "the aftermath of his departure will leave a fight for power within the Chandler household."

All the soaps are racist. The problem is your definition only applies to a single actress, and certainly not Daphnee Duplaix. If she was still there, you'd still be calling it the most racist soap on television for not employing America's favorite backup singer.

The Chandler clan is doomed if J.R. is in charge They need to recast JR Chandler ASAP. What's Greg Vaughan doing these days?

I'm glad that David put out a farewell statement. He has lots of fans would will appreciate it. I am very pleased that Adam gets a happy ending. However, I doubt we will see him again other than in AMC's final episode in a couple years.

I think that JR as the Chandler patriarch can rejuvenate the character providing he divorces Marissa. JR was following in Adam's shoes very nicely up until Babe came along and ruined him. Jacob Young can play ruthless with vulnerability. He just needs to regain his enthusiasm.
