Zach Returns To Kendall!		Oh, Kaye!
Look for Thorsten Kaye to bring Zach back to ALL MY CHILDREN starting Friday, October 22! Although the soap won't reveal the length of the actor's stay (Kaye had no interest in relocating his family to the West Coast following AMC's move to Los Angeles), headwriters David Kreizman and Donna Swajeski revealed in Soaps In Depth's Fall Preview that Kaye's character will stick around Pine Valley for most of October and November!

UPDATE: Irizarry Is Out!		Irizarry is a goner.
A spokesperson for ABC confirms that Vincent Irizarry is officially out. "We are sorry to lose Vincent, but David’s death was storyline-dictated and the payoff of this story will reveal many unexpected twists and plot developments," says the rep in a statement. This news come on the heels of Irizarry recanting what was posted on his own website just a few days ago about still being in contract negotiations. "Regarding my character's sudden end and any previously reported news of negotiations between me and ABC, those statements were not authorized and premature," says the new message. "Unfortunately, there's really not much more I can say at this time except how truly appreciative I am for all the comments on websites and message boards which have been written in support of my work and my character. There would be no doubt to me whatsoever, if I ever do return to AMC it will be in greater part because of this wonderful outpouring from all of you who love the show and David as much as I do. I am forever grateful to all of you…" We'll miss you, Vincent… and David!
