I love a good wedding. The flowers, the guests, the gorgeous dresses and two people who absolutely love and adore one another pledging their love for the rest of their lives…..Okay so maybe that’s not exactly how it works in daytime. 

I’ve been a daytime viewer for many, many years and I have certainly seen my fair share of the elaborate (and not so elaborate) daytime weddings. However the one that occurs between Annie Lavery and Adam Chandler this week, leaves me a little bit confused.

While I never understood the whole idea surrounding the pairing of Adam and Annie, over time these two began to grow on me. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but their was just something these two brought out in each other that made me enjoy their pairing. 

Unfortunately, the minute Annie started scheming and began to realize that Adam killed his brother….well that is when this pairing started to go south for me.  It’s obvious that Annie wants a stable life and she knows that being Mrs. Adam Chandler would get her the prestige in Pine Valley, not to mention just about anything she wants too. 

I was expecting Adam to dump Annie like a plate of hot potatoes, but when he found out she was “pregnant” he did the right thing and met her at the altar. But as we know Annie is NOT pregnant and if she is, then the child will certainly not be Adam’s. 

As we venture into the final months of 2009 and probably one of the biggest upcoming moves in daytime over the recent years, I can’t help but wonder why Charles Pratt wants to give viewers yet another “Whose your Daddy” storyline. I mean we’ve suffered through one too many of those over the last year or so, that it’s time for other storylines to emerge. 

Whispers are abundant that David Canary will only be seen on the show until April, so that tells me there is no long term plan for an Adam and Annie pairing.  Something tells me that Annie will end up doing the horizontal mambo with Adam’s nephew Scott, getting pregnant, trying to pass the kid off as Adam’s only to be kicked to the curb by both Adam and Scott. 

But why…why do we have to endure this storyline. Why can’t we see Adam using his financial resources to get Annie the treatment she needs for her mental state, only to realize that he does truly have feelings for his blushing bride. 

Or perhaps Adam and Annie could unify the Chandler family and rally around JR, as he continues to deal with his illness and prepares little A for a life without his father. Any storyline other than the one I have a feeling we are about to get is better. 

I’m totally losing interest in this show and a major overhaul needs to be done to get it back on track.  Here’s hoping that with the holiday’s on the horizon, Santa will be good to all the AMC fans and bring us exactly what is on our Christmas lists. 

Hello my dears, can this show get any worse? I’m not sure the returns of Rebecca Budig, Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos will give the ratings the boost the network is hoping for. I’ve heard whispers that Pratt’s contract is up sometime in December, and let’s hope Santa comes early and brings us a new head writer that will get this show back on track! 

The network is being tight lipped regarding the departure of Thorsten Kaye and how Zach will depart Pine Valley. At this moment it is anyone’s guess, so I say stay tuned

Now onto your views:

“Great Column. I left AMC many years ago, and only started watching again because of the “murder mystery storyline buzz.” I have to say, it started out great, the storyline was moving along, and then it just hit a ZENDALL wall.  Suddenly the who murdered Stuart went to a Kendall/Zach saga once again. The fact that she was “living in the wall” was only one ridiculous aspect of this storyline. I really liked Charles Pratt’s writing on GH….but now it just sucks. I’m done with this show AGAIN.”  Reader Sandra
