Soap Stuff: AMC's Dixie Is Back!


It's been little over a year since All My Children veteran Dixie Cooney was killed off with poisoned pancakes. The storyline outraged fans and many quickly wrote the show off afterwards. Cady McClain went back to rival show As The World Turns, and fans were forced to deal with unrequited desires of seeing supercouple Tad and Dixie together again.

Now, according to soapcentral.com and ABC themselves, Cady McClain is reprising her Daytime Emmy-winning role in May. There is a catch, however. She is returning, AS A GHOST!

Many fans will likely be furious by this turn of events. Honestly, I'm not pleased with it either. Dixie's story is far from over and to officially seal her death away and make Dixie a ghost is just ridiculous. There are SO many ways to have brought her back (for example, David Hayward kidnapped her) instead of the paranormal.

Once again, AMC dropped the ball.

However, I am glad to see Cady back on AMC, and if there is ANY justice, Tad and Dixie will have a proper goodbye that will satisfy the T&D fans who have waited 20 years for this story!!
