Rest in peace, John. 66 is too young. And Kaya having just graduating HighSchool and this virus, its just a horrible time. My thoughts and sympathy are extended to Eva and Kaya at this horrible time.
I loved Maria and Edmund so much!! I remember watching this scene and being so happy that they finally found their way back to each other but then they had to go and kill him off!! :/
The destruction of Edmund and Maria was the final straw for me and I stopped watching AMC permanently. I know the actors were divorcing but they left the show around the same time, fans desered to have them leave happily together. I also HATED aging Sam and Maddie 10 years over night, I loved the little kids who played them. But when soaps write crap that I find unacceptable, I reject the soap's crappy writing and write my own ending that I fully embrace.
ok, when did wildwind go from being the ancestral home of dimitri and edmund to being the boarding house of alot of the young adults of PV to becoming the home of David Hayward?
@noworkinternational oh ok I didn't know that Eva and John were going through an ugly divorce in real life I still think that after Eva left to do CSI:Miami that they could've kept Edmund on the canvas...he was a terrific character...or they could've had him simply leave town--but to kill him off was so unnecessary
The best line from her rescuing Maddie: "Madeleine Flora Grey, you come to your mother right now!" (paraphrasing a little). THAT was more than enough to convince me Maria RETURNED and shed the heinous, shameful, hostile Maureen personality. Chalk that one up to an ugly Sybil misfortune.
@adheckle yeah Eva LaRue left to do CSI:Miami but that was still NO excuse for ruining Edmund and then needlessly killing him....it was completely ridiculous behavior for a wonderful character like Edmund who had been on-screen for years
This was around when I started watching - it was the ending to one of the very first episodes I watched. How long was Maria back as Maureen before she remembered Edmund and their life together? I just want an idea of how long fans were waiting for this scene. :)

JasmineAurora100 to bad you were not a real fan of the show
Aidan said goodbye to Maureen not Maria.
Does anyone know where I can find the 1997 plane crash from All My Children where we thought Maria died in?
Glad she is coming back for a few episodes this month. They were so great together.

I'm sorry for your loss... HUGS!
Beautiful scene..Loved me some Edmund and Maria / Noaj and Julia!!!!

I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. I loved All My Children too, even though it's gotten kinda bad the last year or so
I loved this scene....it was so good to have Maria back because she was completely unlikeable as Maureen.
The best line from her rescuing Maddie: "Madeleine Flora Grey, you come to your mother right now!" (paraphrasing a little). THAT was more than enough to convince me Maria RETURNED and shed the heinous, shameful, hostile Maureen personality. Chalk that one up to an ugly Sybil misfortune.
Does anyone have the clip of Maria saving Maddie? I haven't seen it and I would love to see it.

Crazygurl1211 she returned in June 2002... so nearly a year, I guess.
I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M CRYING!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
