Agreed. I think AJ has more charisma. Not sold on Petey yet (though that cna be because I loved Daniel Kennedy)

I can see AJ more JR son with Babe than Petey being Opal's son.....I kept laughing at JL staring at the hunk of a man playing her son...she kept looking south....lol

Now Wikipedia has Alexa Havins listed as returning. Im not falling for this one.

The official AMC Twitter/Facebook needs to post that Twitpic of Melissa Claire Egan and Chrishell Stause watching the show on a laptop and caption it "even Annie and Amanda are watching All My Children FREE on their LAPTOP at the HULU.com WEBSITE"...

"Sure they can, but how about people without internet? Also, where's Kendall and Ryan? They're the stars of the show! Not here for this."

Eden looks old enough to be the mom considering I think Michael raped Bianca at age 18 or 19.

The Marlene McPherson auto-stigma is just predictable. It's true there are valid complaints to make, but a large portion of the current audience that was reared on decades of camp and hysteria as the only true Days of our Lives rejected her as "boring" pretty much out of the gate, and there's so much cultish hive mind stuff like that in online soap fandom that one persona tends to follow a writer, or actor, or story or character forever unless you just...watch it and decide for yourself. I hated JFP's work for many years on many shows because I lived it, and I think that hatred of her work was valid. But I can at least recognize when she does something well, as she did at GL or now at Y&R - while that show may be mediocre, it's at least professionally and snappily presented, unlike MAB.

Or maybe, just maybe, people gave it a fair chance and were turned off by how boring and pointless it all was. And maybe the issues people had with her days are already evident on AMC. Crazy. I know.

My goodness now Susan Lucci, Jamie Luner, and Bobby Eakes are listed on Wikipedia. So not buying any of it.

I have a feeling Cass will probably bond with Celia and won't have all that much in common with Colby.

As far as Colby is concerned, i think she will want Pete, will be the complete antithesis of Celia and will be exactly what Adam/Liza's daughter should be. A gorgeous, smart, calculating, manipulative bitch who is riddled with insecurities.

I can't wait to see Colby/JR in all their dysfunction and AJ trying to manage the crazy of all that family under one roof.

Oh and is too early to root for a JR/Cass pairing? They can be recovering hot messes together and Angie can freak out over the idea of sharing a grandkid with Adam.

Haha, love the idea of Jr/Cass! Remember when Angie/Jesse had to foster Little A because JR was off his rocker? Those hubbards do not love Adam Chandler, II, and would not be happy with their baby girl circling around that shark.

I hope that the recast Colby has the charism of Alexa Havins and plays up the sympathetic bitch. I want someone like a Hayley, or Julia Keefer, or Gillian Andrassy who played up the entitled, beautiful maven piece of the character, but had the vulnerability and likeability to be the audiance's best friend.

I'm not going to spam the thread, thought this was cute lol

With @mclaireegan watching the new @allmychildren on Hulu! Loved the Amanda & Jake shout out! twitter.com/Chrishell7/sta…— Chrishell Stause (@Chrishell7) May 1, 2013

Very cute! All the shout outs have been awesome.

That's my favorite kind of character when done right.

So far Miranda and Dixie are my favorites on this.

I think Lee Merriweather was confirmed as recurring in a press realease? I kind of wished Ruth was killed off. No one could ever take the place of Mary Fickett in my heart.

Okay.

She wasn't, she was just listed on IMDB, which anyone can edit but someone took it as gospel. Lee has a Twitter and hasn't said one peep about AMC.

The wiki also says that Brittany Allen is returning as Grandma Boring....because I typed it in and hit save.

Dont trust wiki!

You can't go by Wikipedia. It's not reliable. Ever. Fans make [!@#$%^&*] up there all the time.

I just hope we hear less newbies being cast and more vets. Maybe the old cast will warm up to the ideas of returning now that the show seems to be an online success, some of the stalkwarts are back, and it is clear the show is not AMC in anme only. ABC really did hurt the cast (the east coast to west coast move, straddling them with Sawjeskie/Kreizman when Broderick was avilable). They were team players, but at the end they too were played.
