Shocking, and very unfortunate. her return was botched, terribly. But to kill off a character so tied to AMC, who was a presence even when she was not onscreen... heck, I'm not a Dixie fan, but even I think that is awful.
it bodes ill for AMC.

SOD reports Cady was fired, and Dixie will be the
next victim of the serial killer... yes, after bringing
Dixie back from the dead, they are killing her off
again.

Ridiculous. What a waste of time. They ruin her
character and get rid of her -- nice going... why even
bother bringing her back? What purpose did she serve? She
didn't help her son, she didn't help Tad, she didn't do
anything but screw around with people's lives.

I'm no Dixie fan, but it's a loss to AMC. And it
shows the way tptb are thinking... which is not
good.
They rearranged already planned stories to get her back, but the story they had for her was illplanned.. just awful. And instead of fixing things, they yank her off again. I bet more vets will follow. AMC will not be recognizable (is it now?) shortly. |

Yeah, this show is starting to be like 24 now where
they kill off all the main characters.
At least 24 has the sense to not resurrect them! |

Why not fix the character issues? Does this mean
that they are abandoning the Kate/Kathy storyline? Or
will Tad get his little girl back anyway and raise her
alone? Well we all know killing Dixie isn't permanent
(lol).

OMG! Thanks for sharing, Redi.
I can't believe after all the trouble bringing her back, taht this would happen. She isn't part of Fusion, so why her anyway? |

Well I just read something that I couldn't beileve.
I didn't want to start a new topic so I'll post it
here,
Get read for it: AMC has casted THREE new characters!! WTF? You get rid of Dixie, Brooke, Erin and Simone and you hire new people? No wonder I don't watch this show anymore. Oh yeah, Dani's also leaving the show. Sonny> Everybody but
Victor.

My sister and I were just discussing AMC and we
both came to the conclusion that we are watching out of
loyality or habit. We have watched for years but there is
just nothing going on now that has my interest. I keep
telling myself that its going to get better but it isn't.
It may be time to throw in the towel. They get rid of
extreamly talented actors (using character names)like
David, Simone, Dixie, even Dani (who has turned out to be
a gem) because the writters arent creative enough to give
them meaningful storylines, then hire newbies. Someone
PLEASE explain this to me!

Quote: Yes, it is. She collapses in front of JR and Babe, and she dies as Joe tries to keep her alive in the hospital. We see her dead body and folks get their goodbye scenes. We also will see her 'spirit' with JR after she dies. She's as dead as they can be in a soap. Cady has an interview in this week's Soap Opera Weekly where she talks about this. She confirms she was FIRED (no negotiations) and JHC called her to the office and told her Dixie had three weeks to live. That was it. Check SOW for more. |

That could be attributed to a wish or delusion or
dream of Robin's.
when everyone sees the body on screen... a group of people all awake.. it's harder to do that return. Think Edmund. |

I used to watch GH back in the mid to late 80s and
early 90s. But have only looked in here and there
recently (tuned back in to see Robert return
So I'm not up to date on GH. |

Re: MAJOR uncasting spoiler :( | #20 | ||

ok, so from what it looks like, Dixie will die
before they find out that Kathy is Kate. How STUPID is
this?!
So after all the anticipation of Cady coming back... we find out she has been searching for Kate the whole time.... then the whole mess with Emma, who turns out NOT to be Kate.... and now just as we're about to find out that Kate is in town, Dixie dies BEFORE she finds out??? When they find out that she is Kate, the character of Dixie NEEDS to be around, this just stinks. BTW, didn't it seem like this was going to happen sooner?? I thougth they would find out while Father Clarence was on around Christmas (this year's "Christmas miracle"), but alas the mother did not even SAY that Kathy was adopted before she died, did she?? I thought for sure she would say it before she died... not that she knew who the parents were or anything, but just to say that she had been adopted. Maybe it will be NEXT YEAR'S Christmas miracle instead. |
