Beth Ehlers OUT At AMC!


Sad news as AMC prepares to leave New York City for Los Angeles. Numerous soap opera sites are reporting this. Daytime Confidential reported it as a rumor a few weeks ago, but it seems to have been confirmed...

Beth Ehlers will be leaving the show before AMC wraps up its run in New York. She was only on for a little over a year, and she was badly written for. So, she deserves better, and I wish her all the best.

I was really enjoying her pairing with Michael E. Knight. Tad & Taylor were pretty cute together. But what's really sad is that this news marks the true end of Jake & Taylor. They weren't working before, but I always had a bit of hope that they'd be re-explored later. And the actors were still funny as hell together on-screen; there continued to be a glimmer of their old Guiding Light magic. With Beth leaving, it's the end of an era. Ricky and Beth had a wonderful acting partnership, and it will be sorely missed.
