I actually...sorta...kinda...agree with this.

I don't think Scott and/or Marissa have been sacrificed for JR and/or Annie, but I'd hardly say Annie's been sacrificed for Marissa. As far as the Chandler quad goes, JR and Annie have been the stars of that show since the second Adam left, and the bulk of the story has been told from their points of view. Scott and Marissa were recast in the middle of the story because they could be, because they aren't the central figures of the plot.

ETA: And look at me, being the one to make my own prediction come true!

I guess you are right... I am blinded by my anger, and indifference towards Marissa I suppose. Oh well... I am sure Melissa will act her heart out as she always does in these final weeks. I'll be very interested to see just how much they vilify her.... that I guess will tell us if they are thinking recast or not.

If she goes to Greenbrior, perhaps that plastic surgery/early release program is still in effect?

Love MCE and will stop watching once she stops airing. I'm really upset over it but what pisses me off even more is knowing that she won't get the exit she deserves. All the progress she made as Annie in the last year will be erased. What a waste...

:o Oh God, I hope the release of a certain somebody's autobio doesn't coincide with the closing of another chapter in her life:

"After months of soul searching, I've decided that this will be my last contract year with All My Children. ABC's decision to move the show to L.A. was a great vote of confidence, but as you all know, I'm a New York girl and many of us east-coasters went kicking and screaming. *smile* I look forward to spending more time in New York with my daughter's beautiful children and spending more quality time with mom in Palm Beach and with Helmut traveling the globe. I'll continue to see my fan friends on QVC and hopefully in some eciting film and primetime projects. But those of you who have been watching AMC for the last 41 1/2 years since I started playing Erica Kane as a rambunctious four year-old girl know that you can't get rid of her THAT easily. I'll be making plenty of visits to check in on my girls and their children and of course Ryan who has been one of the most special people in Erica's life, like a son while also a lover. I thank you all for the years, and I promise, the best is yet to come! xoxo -SL"

Now I've jinxed it, it can never happen! I speak it into existence!

Shut up! :P AND if this does come true, Frons would be absolutely insane to try and continue AMC post Erica Kane. I think that could definitely be his long awaited, justifiable excuse to cancel this show!

:lol: Now THAT I can agree with. I love Angie and Jesse and Tad and Opal, but AMC without Erica? I fully expect everyone to show up for work each day and ask, "Soooo, why are we here y'all? :unsure: "

Meh. I'm not gonna flip out over some 4 year newbie. The show has survived more shocking departures of longer-term characters who were equally, if not more, popular than Annie/MCE, and it'll survive this one too. Personally, the Crazy!Annie shtick got old a long time ago, and I never bought into any of her pairings. I wish the actress well, and I feel for her fans. It sucks to lose a character you love. :(

I called it in the other thread. Is this the Emmy nominee they were referring to? Or is it RH. Frankly, I need a break from Annie. MCE is talented though. We'll see if she finds work outside of daytime.

Yes, honey.... when there were actually other characters/plots on the show that were interesting!

I was sad when Kate Collins left, but at least there were other charterers & plots to keep me entertained.

      BTG: November 2025 Discussion Thread

      date: Tuesday, November 18, 2025 | Jamey Giddens, Danielle Paige | Steven Williford Samantha, accept the fact you were in the wrong and do not deserve your digital devices. Do not like it? Go upstairs. Read a book. Do some knitting. Bradley and Martin's "we get it" to Tyrell was hilarious and absolutely a parent's thing to do. Loving a bit of history of both the Duprees (via Eva) and the Hawthrones (via Izaiah). So cute. Poor June. I am sure she did not purposefully mean to mess up; we have all been there working in customer service. Shake it off and keep on keeping on! Not twice a week for Vernon's cobbler order... Sharon must be using that as payment for their meetings. I appreciate that Ted still cares about the Duprees despite the end of his marriage to Nicole. Not Dana using Peaches' crisis as a way of taking Ted's attention away from a co-worker. Girl, do not be so obvious. Bradley is a man after my own heart with a simply divine chocolate milkshake. That is the way to go. Dana really needs to dial it back. Money will not buy her everything she wants and she will realise it soon enough. And I doubt Shanice is scared off by her idle threats, either. "With all due respect, Ms Thomas, this isn't a shopping mall." Oh, Dr Wilkes just owned Dana's arrogant ass. I love it. Wigs and personas? Okay now, Shanice ate with that read. I like that June assured Bradley that she will not replace him or Martin in the twins' lives. And that blood does not make a parent. Words never rang more true. Jessica reading Samantha was amazing. Dana would want to involve Ted. Her obsession is crossing beyond dangerous boundaries. Not Dana catching Vernon leaving Sharon's room at the country club. That is not good. Not good at all! Notes: Ugh. Not another breakdown from writer2. This week was going so well. Thankfully, Paige is an outstanding scriptwriter (one of this soap's best), and her words today are excellent. The food at Orphey Gene's does look bomb, so I do not blame any of the characters for uptalking it. I would eat there daily if I could. And gain hundreds of pounds, too. David Lami Friebe (Izaiah) continues to make me sick watching him, but he is nice to listen to. I still really like having June as the central person hub at Orphey Gene's. That familiar face you see when you walk in and have scenes. Dana wanting a second opinion means we could have an incoming doctor, right...?

      I am sure "no one cares" and it's not a big deal to some people, but this thread is full of certain posters calling out women's ages, their viability to have children at like 35, and their nail polish, but we celebrate everything Chandler Massey does and applaud any male shirtless scenes.  And then posters walk back being like it's just a joke and weren't serious lol.

      I'm so glad she's still on the show. Seems like she may have dropped a hint about the real source of conflict between her and Dee, too.

      I don't know how reliable the information is, but from what I've read, he joined GH in 1977, and Alan (who started airing in September 1977) was one of his creations. That should have been enough time to get the show in better shape by the January 1978 episode we saw, but then again, shifting from a 30 minute to a 60 minute format is a big transition, one that requires a lot of filler scenes like Monica having a long flashback to a scene that must have only played out a few weeks earlier.

      I agree. She said, "I do," and then decided, "I don't." I wish Nikki Abbott had been a longer duration. I wholly prefer Nikki with Jack than I ever have with Victor, and today's episode proved that. And I never minded Ashley with Victor.

      That one really bothered me. The chemistry was still very much there and then she married Jack and immediately ran off to find Victor. It was such a slap in the face to anyone that was a fan of the pairing.

      Some of those 1988-ish episodes are up. I'm not really sure she did much else. I think I recall something along the lines of she and Rusty had been suspended over the investigation of Nicky, George's supplier. I'm not sure she even gets some kind of goodbye. I think she just disappeared when Pam Long returned.
