I disagree. All My Children is always great, it didn't need improving. IMO AMC is the best soap opera of the year.

Who the hell is Anna Stuart?

I can't remember who she is.

She plays Mary Smythe.

I personally prefer the Mimi Torchin list from SOAPnet.com ... I can't believe General Hospital won best ensemble. They have good cast members, but many of them aren't on the show that often, so it's not very balanced. JMO.
