By Silas Kain My name is Silas and I’m a soap opera aficionado. There I said it and I have no shame. And that’s how I’d like to begin my relationship with you. A couple of weeks ago, Michele asked if I would consider being a contributor to Soapbox1. I didn’t have to think about [...]

By Joshua Ryan or David? Who should Greenlee choose? One of the biggest front burner story lines on All My Children is the Ryan/Greenlee/David triangle, and there are a few reasons why I like it. I’ll be the first to say that I don’t like Ryan (Cameron Mathison). I like the actor, but the character [...]

By Joshua When you think of business rivals on All My Children, no one crosses your mind except for Palmer Cortlandt and Adam Chandler, who have been rivals for decades. But last week, we said goodbye to both of these business titans, as Palmer (James Mitchell) died and Adam (David Canary) left town with Brooke [...]

By Joshua The new writing at All My Children is evident now more than ever with the heating up of couples we never would have expected. When Adam (David Canary) and Annie (Melissa Claire Egan) got married, we all knew she’d cheat on him. But we all thought it would be with his nephew, Scott [...]

By Kimi Yesterday’s anniversary show wasn’t anywhere near what I was expecting, and that turned out to not be such a bad thing. Interviewing the show’s characters in documentary style was a great way to not only fill in blanks on old and new characters and story lines, but also gave the show a modern [...]

By Kimi Just watched the first half of All My Children’s 40th Anniversary special, and must admit I was a bit disappointed. It was great to see Hayley (Kelly Ripa) and Mateo (Mark Consuelos) on my screen again.  Ripa effortlessly stepped back into her character’s old pumps with ease, and it was hard to tell [...]

By Kimi Just read the great news that Chrishell Stause (Amanda Martin) agreed to remain in Pine Valley on a recurring basis.  I was hoping for this since All My Children is moving to California soon.  Once Thorsten Kaye (Zach) leaves (or rather, when AMC leaves Kaye behind in NYC) there will be a hard-to-fill [...]

By Kimi By now, All My Children fans know that Charles Pratt Jr. has been fired as head writer.  Although I enjoyed some of Pratt’s stories, some will be forgettable for me.  The tornado special effects were awesome!  Nice way to bring back Bianca, but why’d the baby have to be Zach’s?  Nothing Pratt could [...]
