AMC has cast a new 8 year old girl, Taylor Groothius to play Mackenzie: http://thepinevalleybulletin.blogspot.com/2011/03/casting-news-taylor-groothuis-joins-amc.html

We already have several girls around that age, Miranda, Kathy and Emma. I wonder why they would hire another. My first thought is who's secret kid is she. Was Kathy switched at birth? Twins? Another Ryan, sperm kid?

Looks like it's just a one day role as a kid-bud. This is from the kid on Twitter:

"LOVED being a guest star today on 'All My Children'!!!!!!!!!! It's going to air on ABC on May 9th. Everyone was so wonderful. GREAT day!"

The most interesting information provided here is that on Thursday, March 31 they taped the Monday, May 9 episode.

Assuming Emma's still hating fiercely on Greenlee at this time in the future (I hope), I'd love if this girl was like a friend of Emma's whose over for a sleep over one night and Emma convinces her to be mean to Greenlee with her or something ;-P

That seems a little far ahead than usual for the show, right?? I always heard/read that they taped 3-4 weeks ahead.

It's just a little over 5 weeks ahead. Factor in any time off/dark weeks especially with a holiday coming up at the end of April.

ALL: Sexiest men on soaps

How could I have forgotten a young Michael E Knight? I was crazy for him when I was a teen.

Spin-offs only really work when they're not just an extension of the mothership. Early on it just seemed like Port Charles was General Hospital Pt II, so essentially an attempt at a 30 minute extension without directly tagging it onto the mothership (as AW had shown, that experiment didn't end up well). You could argue something like The Bold and the Beautiful is a de facto spin-off from The Young and the Resless, even down to similarish names. But still different enough to be interesting to be separate entities.

A little boring 😂
But I have to say that GH is still the best soap of 2026, so far

I recall reading that, during RKK's first stint on Another World as Sam Fowler, he threw a chair at Sandra Ferguson (Amanda), and that is why Charles Grant's Evan Bates and Amanda started their affair, as she no longer wanted to work with him (RKK, obviously!). Gee, I can't imagine why!
Which makes me disgusted that RKK continued to get roles after s.hit like this.

Well, Rachel was on the show from 1967-1999, a total of 32 years.
Aunt Liz appeared 1964-71, 1974-1986, late 1987-1993, and then for a few months in 1994. If you add up the years in which she appeared, it would be 26.
Ada, was on the canvas from 1967 to 1992, or 25 years.
Those are AW's three longest running characters, and Rachel has Liz and Ada beat.🙂

Yeah, I 110% believe Lisa on this. There's been stories about RKK from both DOOL and Another World. I don't think it's a coincidence he got the boot once Kristian Alfonso got back - she definitively would've had the power to get him fired pronto. It's a shame from a story perspective, because as I said it took away any question who Bo would end up with.
But of course, his abusive ass deserved to get booted. It's just a shame it didn't happen earlier to maybe establish something between Lisa and Peter Reckell before Kristian made her comeback as Hope.

They definitively could play a bit with perspectives on these small sets instead of having the background lead directly out to a balcony (which is never used anyway). Then again, I suspect the reason they do these "box" apartment sets is because they're just easier to redress and re-use which they obviously have to do (ironically, I think Beyond the Gates have the opposite issue where they've done somewhat unique living spaces, but it makes them harder to re-dress for other purposes).

Reading these 1986 summaries, it's hard to believe that Anna has been on for less than a year, and starting off as a bad guy too.
