With the death of Richie Novak (Billy Miller), All My Children has been missing a
troublemaker. Not the case anymore! According to SOAPnet.com, Dr. David Hayward, the narcissistic, manipulative jerk is coming back to Pine Valley, once again played by
Vincent Irizarry. Irizarry played David from 1997 through his exit in 2006. When last seen, David left town, rejected by
the woman he loved, Dixie (Cady McClain). Most recently seen on Y&R, Irizarry played a similar baddie-David Chow.
But he lacked the finesse that made "David Hayward" so lovably evil. Irizarry returns to AMC in early to
mid-fall.

Alan made mention to Alex just yesterday something about Lujack, so I said to my wife I bet he's coming back to G.L.
Looks Like I was wrong

While I loved Lujack and Nick, I have to say a huge hooray since I watch AMC! Shelly, you will love the character of David Hayward! He is a real snake, but
lovable at the same time. By the way, David is Babe Chandler's father. He and Babe's mom, Krystle, had a one night stand and he never knew about Babe
until a few years ago. David also really loved Tad's wife, Dixie (JR's mom). They had an affair at one time, but she rejected him when she returned
to the show (before she got killed) and he then left town. Hope that catches you up a bit!

Thanks Jamie. I wondered who Babe's father is. BTW I cannot stand that they call the character "Babe"; for some reason that just REALLY annoys
me. If you want to be a serious business woman, get a real name. LOL
I am looking forward to him being on the show. I haven't watched my tape since Tuesday. I saw BE's new character blow off Jake the other day. That was funny. It looks like they are going to make them a couple by the way they started out. I'm curious to see if they have as much chemistry as other characters.

I actually missed BE's first scene with RPG/Jake the other day.... I have missed taping a couple of shows due to watching the Olympics. I'm a bit
behind. I did see her scenes today with the Hubbard family. I'm sure AMC is going to capitalize as much as possible on RPG and BE's chemistry -
I'm really anxious to see if Jake/Taylor has the same chemistry as Gus/Harley??? It will be interesting.
By the way, Babe does have a real name- her name is Arabella (not much better, huh?). But, her momma always called her Babe.

Back in the '40's there was a soap on the radio,my mom loved it.I think it was Stella Dallas,she had a daughter and called her "baby" My
mother would call me baby and it would infuriate me.
(I know that is totally off topic,but I just couldn't resist it). |

The name "Babe" makes me think of that pig, lol. I expect her to start herding the residents of PV anytime.
Ricky and Beths scene the other day was pretty good, especially the last line, "you need to tuck in your stethoscope", "Really?" (looks down). The scenes with the Hubbards was pretty good, you could definetly tell she has something that she wasn't talking about with Franklin (that name reminds me of a turtle). I've been trying to watch AMC lately, but it's hard after all these years to catch on. I gotta say, David Canary needs a hair cut, lol, those white curls at his neck freak me out. Angie gets on my last nerve sometimes, like she used to, but I like her, she just seems so, oh I don't know, overdramatic sometimes. I never did see the appeal of Tad and I see less now, though I get he's an important character, which brings me to a question..........Did the Martins have any bio children? I remember Joe and Ruth and Tad and Jake are both Martins, but I can't remember how they got there. Didn't Tad belong to Opal? He is Jenny's sister. They sure do have a pretty cast though, men and women. |

Okay, Shelly/Ms. M, let me see if my memory works... about the Martins - If I'm correct, Jake (formerly known as Joe Martin Jr/Joey) is Joe and Ruth's
only biological child. I know that Joe has a biological daughter, Tara, from a previous marriage and she was involved with Ruth's bio son from a previous
marriage - Phillip Brent. I think that Tara and Phillip were a big couple way back when - however, that was before I began watching. I remember hearing at
one time about the Martins having a son named Bobby? Something about he was on briefly, went upstairs to the attic, and was never seen again (kind of like
James on Guiding Light!). Not really sure about that though.
Tad is Opal's biological son with Ray Gardner. Ray was a horrible monster and very abusive to his whole family. He ended up leaving Tad in the woods after breaking his leg when he was a young boy. That's how Joe and Ruth eventually came to adopt him. Somehow Opal wasn't the greatest mother and had been traumatized herself by Ray Gardner - or, she had run off with Jenny in tow (Tad's sister). For whatever reason, Joe and Ruth adopted Tad and got him away from Ray. Incidentally, Ray Gardner also ended up raping Ruth at some point. He was a creep - and by the way, did you know that Ray Gardner was played by none other than Gil Rodgers (who plays Hawk Shayne!) How about that for connections! He was a great villian as Ray - extremely creepy. Hope that helps! Jamie |

Here is a partial list of Tad's Relatives on Soapcentral:
Ray Gardner (biological father) Joseph Martin Sr. (adoptive father) Opal (biological mother) Ruth Parker (adoptive mother) Jenny Gardner (biological sister) Adrian Sword (biological half-brother) Peter Cortlandt (biological half-brother) Jeff Martin (adoptive half-brother) Tara Martin (adoptive half-sister) Bobby Martin (adoptive half-brother) Philip Brent (adoptive half-brother / adoptive maternal cousin) Joseph Martin Jr. (adoptive brother) So is Opal Peter Cortlandt's mother? ------------------ I am loving BE's character so far. I loved that exchange about the stethoscope.  I am really glad that they brought her in as a totally new character.
I know a lot of AMC fans would not have liked or accepted her as Liza Colby. And I did not want her to be someone who has a history with Adam Chandler! LOL I
like that they tied her entrance in with a story about Frankie's time in Iraq.

I totally forgot about Jeff Martin - he's even been on AMC - played by John James. Jeff Martin is also Josh's (Kendall's brother) biological
father. He and Erica Kane were married and Josh is their son. You may not have even seen Josh yet, Shelly- he's hardly ever on anymore!
Anyway, Jeff Martin is Joe's son and Tara's brother. Petey is Opal and Palmer's son. I can't remember much about Adrian Sword - I remember the guy playing him, though. I guess I remember him being Opal's son with someone? He's half-black, that much I remember. Good looking guy! I had totally forgotten that he turned out to be Opal's son, though! Shelly, did you read the other post that tells more about Taylor's upcoming SL on AMC? About the casting call for the Iraq war vet? Sounds really interesting, IMO. Jamie |

Isn't Josh the one that had the one night stand with Greenlee a while back? After she found out about Kendall and Aidan, it was a Friday mini-cliff-hanger
to see who she was having sex with...Josh, Jake or Zach?
I think the BE storyline could be really good. I do want her to end up with Jake (RPG) in the end, but a war vet story could be great if done correctly. I said in the other post that if GL were doing it, I would be afraid they would totally botch it but I think AMC could do well with it. It seems they have done research and actually want to be as accurate as possible.
