At least this one is the performer's choice. It feels like 1/3rd of the younger cast all left or were gotten rid of on AMC.

I just saw this on twitter. When I first started watching her she was "crazy Annie" and I didn't much care for the character nor the actress. But....I've come to enjoy both since and will miss her. Yeah...I'm glad too that it was her choice. Here's her message about her leaving:

My dear fans,

After 4 and a half incredible years as a member of the All My Children cast, I have made the extremely difficult decision to leave the Pine Valley family that I have come to love and respect so much.

It has been an amazing 4 and a half years for me! I have had the privilege and honor of working with the most talented and fun cast, crew, producers and directors imaginable. I have learned so much from them and am forever indebted. To wake up each morning and love going to work is a true blessing for which I am unbelievably grateful!

But after much soul-searching, I feel that it is time to spread my wings and open myself up to new challenges and adventures.

And you, my beloved fans.....Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate your support and encouragement over these past four plus years. You have inspired me to give my all to the "complicated" character of Annie Novak McDermott Lavery Chandler Chandler (hehehe, it's always fun to say that Wink), and I hope to have lived up to your expectations. You will always hold a special place in my heart, and I hope you will wish me well in my future endeavors!

With much love and gratitude,
Melissa

I was a big fan of crazy Annie but I wont miss sane whining Annie. I wish her well and I think Melissa is pretty talented so I think she'll do alright.

Crazy week in soaps!

I know jbrr...the whining Annie isn't fun to watch...but maybe they are making her crazy Annie again as a way to write her off. I saw on twitter this morning that a "soap" was given orders to slash 1/2 it's budget. It was one of those "blind" items, which I hate cuz I'm not good on guessing, but people seem to think it was a toss up between GH and AMC.

Egan Not Done at AMC
"People are saying that I taped my last scenes on January 11; I don't know where that came from," reports Melissa Claire Egan, who is in the throes of filming her final episodes as Annie. "For the record, I'm not done yet! I'm still working this week!" The character will last air on March 21.
