The baby boom continues!!! Connie Fletcher Stanton (ex-Erin) and husband Aaron Stanton (Mad Men) are expecting their first child, a boy, this summer! The couple married in December of 2006. Since leaving AMC in 2006 at the hands of the Satin Slayer (I can hear the collective groan out there!) Connie has been a regular on the webseries Imaginary Bitches with Eden Riegel (Bianca) and Elizabeth Hendrickson (ex-Maggie).
This is one I'd like to wish in person ha! One of my faves, Keith Hamiton Cobb celebrates his 48th birthday today. I wouldn't have thought that possible, but then, I just turned 44 so I guess anything is possible! They don't make em like Noah Keefer anymore! Happy Birthday Keith!!!
Taylor Gildersleeve (ex-Sydney) has been cast in the recurring role of Leah on OLTL. Since leaving AMC in 2007 after playing Winifred's niece and co-sweet sixteen celebrant with Colby, Taylor has gone on to win Miss Teen NY USA 2009 and competed in the Miss Teen USA 2009 pageant! The role of Leah is said to be a Las Vegas pole dancer!
Emmy for Writing GL in 2007.

Drama category. This year the competition is getting rougher. They are up against ATWT (who had the very popular pairing of Luke and Noah), GL (who's even more popular pairing of Olivia and Natalia is nominated), and OLTL (which featured a character coming out and having a relationship and well known character Dorian's advocacy for gay marriage). Is it safe to assume that AMC's storyline of Reese and Bianca, their marriage and subsequent annulment 5 minutes later might not stand a chance his year? We'll see! The GLAAD Awards will held in New York on March 13 at the Marriott Marquis. And then in Los Angeles on April 17 at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza. And then in San Francisco on June 5 at The Westin St. Francis. UPDATE (3/14) The GLAAD Award went to OLTL.
People.com is reporting that Rebecca Budig (Greenlee) and her husband of five years, Bob (The Bachelor) Guiney, have split. No divorce has been filed, and the two remain very good friends, but apparently friends of both have confirmed that the marriage is in fact over. In a statement to People the couple said, “We love each other very much. We are best friends and don’t know what the future holds.”
back in 2006 when AMC decided not to renew Julia Barr's contract. At the time, the actress didn't want to stay on in a recurring capacity. Fans were in an uproar that such a classic as Brooke (and Julia) could be discarded the way she was. Quite honestly, the uproar never ceased. It got quieter now and then, but Brooke has always been missed, has always been one of the first mentioned when talk of characters returning happens. Many fans rejoiced when it was announced she would be on the anniversary show. And then popped the corks on the champagne when, shortly thereafter, it was announced she would be returning to AMC in February. Right now, the term of her return is short. But it's a step in the right direction. I hope she has sharpened her claws because I want to see some classic Erica/Brooke catfights! Meow!
And then, nothing. He was gone. Liza was brought back as a lawyer so he wasn't even needed for lawyery stuff. Walt Willey has classically said on many occasions that he will leave Pine Valley when he leaves in a pine box. Well he didn't leave that way, but still he was gone. And while I'm one of the few who is really digging the Erica/Ryan May/December romance, I think she truly belongs with Jack at this point. The diversion of Ryan has been fun. And seriously, when I'm 63 I hope I can attract a smokin hot younger dude too! But it's time for Jack to return, remind Erica about their love and show her that Ryan was exactly what I said... a diversion until the real man of her dreams was back. Their history, their long long history pretty much makes their story simple. Two hearts that lost their way and need to find a way back to each other. Personally speaking, I think that Erica and Jack should never have gotten divorced. I can't even remember why it happened now (although I'm sure someone will remind me lol). It's time for Erica to settle down. It's time to make Jack and Erica the anchors.
Greenlee is back. Nice lead in huh? Jack is back and he needs to be back with Erica. That leaves Ryan alone. Or does it? Rebecca Budig has returned to the role of Greenlee. She clearly never lost her love of Ryan. How could she? She woke up a year later believing it was still her wedding day. She's just as much in love as the day she "died." And I definitely believe that Ryan never fell out of love with Greenlee either. Sure he grief sexed Kendall over and over and over again. And now he's trying to move on for good with Erica. Not going to happen. Greenlee will be back. And I'm sorry Ms. Kane, you don't stand a chance!
this development, my Dixie hate is rather notorious. But I am happy for the fans who have wanted this. Death by poison pancakes has been the thorn in the side of many, Cady McClain included. And then, out of nowhere, it was revealed that the Satin Slayer did not poison the peanut butter that was put in the pancakes that were to be fed to Babe but that Dixie ate instead. So who wanted Babe dead? No one knows. The story was dropped. Should we assume that Alexander Cambias was lying? Is Dixie's return going to center around finding out what the real deal behind her death was? Is she a ghost? Has David been hiding her too? What's the deal!? We'll find out in March!
AMC is once again bringing back Cady McClain in the role of Dixie. The stint is a short one and she will be in a storyline with Tad. Considering the short term aspect of it, it may be safe to assume she appears to Tad as a ghost, but that information has yet to be released. Stay tuned for information as it develops! Dixie is set to reappear in early March.
