Carol Burnett will return to All My Children this September to reprise her role as Verla Grubbs, ABC announced Friday.

Burnett first appeared as Verla, the long-lost daughter of Langley Wallingford (Louis Edmonds), in 1983. She returned to Pine Valley 12 years later for the 25th anniversary of the soap, along with hosting the 25th anniversary prime-time special, and again in 2005 for the show's 35th anniversary.

"It is our honor and pleasure to welcome back Carol Burnett to Pine Valley. Verla Grubbs is a beloved member of the All My Children family and we look forward to reprising her character," executive producer Julie Hanan Carruthers said.

Burnett is one of many AMC alums returning to the show before it signs off Sept. 23. Eva La Rue, Josh Duhamel, Thorsten Kaye and Cady McClain will all be back as well.

First Look: Carol Burnett Returns to "All My Children"
Aug 22, 2011
by Michael Logan


Here comes trouble!

Queen of comedy Carol Burnett is back on her fave soap, ABC's "All My Children", for her fifth stint (airing September 6 and 7) — and she's just in time for the Pine Valley High School reunion!



Burnett's much-loved character, conniver Verla Grubbs (last seen in 2005), is intent on getting her hooks into old flame Sam Brady (Jason Kincaid) and wants to make sure her rival Opal (Jill Larson) doesn't land him first.

Not even the mighty Erica Kane (Susan Lucci) can stop her!

I'll have to record this event.
