I have loved David Canary since the first day he rode across the Ponderosa. When he stepped into Peyton Place I followed, and loyally , I hung out in Pine Valley for 38 years, never being more ecstaic the first day he appeared there. Over the years, I have had the dubious honor of meeting this wonderful man, peaceful spirit, gentle soul, brilliant actor....need I go on.. As I postpone watching today's episode of his last air date, with Julia, I feel sadness and loss...Knowing he will be back home here does help. LOVE you ,DC, thank you for making our lives so much more brighter, and blessed.

I have only watched GL for 46 years, and remember getting tired of David Canary snatching all the best actor emmys away from the GL stars. When GL ended I switched to AMC. The show was pretty boring, but finally I learned why David got all those emmys. He is one fantastic actor. He is the reason I remain with the show, just to watch him. Now that he is going I will see if the show picks up or remains boring. I will miss you David. Enjoy your retirement and come back to see us real soon.

As a child of the 60's my husband always asks is "Candy " (Bonanza) still on AMC and Ill fill him in, last years cycle w/ the Adam/Stuart murder was a return to the base characters for long time viewers. Without Adam or Palmer Courtland to thwart her, Erica has moved into the "grande dame " position originally filled by Phoebe Tyler. And she hasnt matured enough in the eyes of the writers to do so based on the comic book cat fights btw Erica and Greenlee. They are not at all realistic, bring in someone w/ a business background to write the script and educate current viewers abt actual corporate policies and office politics. We understand Erica is still the insecure young girl of 35 years ago, but she should have evolved somewhat over the years.

I wont reveal my age but when Susan Lucci started playing Erica I was a 17 year old HS student, and have been watching since Phil and Tara pledged their troth in a chapel during a snowstorm. Kudos for bringing back the original Brooke , I have yet to find the actress playing Liza as interesting as her predecessor, and see no chemistry btw the current Liza and Tad.

The AMC commercial running this week on Soapnet is vintage Erica, it will take more of the verve displayed there to renergize AMC, which is currently 5th in my soap watching preference list. Why not bring back Tara, Lincoln or Anne for Erica to play off of, w/ Joe Martin retired, no one from the older generation remains to ground Erica's character.

Another giant nail in AMC's coffin. Sadly for me I stopped watching when the writers began destroying all my favorite characters and firing great people like Julia Barr etc. I have a lot of the old shows on dvd's so can get an AMC fix by watching when the stories were great as well as the acting.Nothing can save AMC in my eyes.

As Denise said, David Canary is "irreplaceable," so I suggest AMC work out an AVATAR contract with the actor to accommodate his option of living in New York. (I'm sure James Cameron would agree to being a temporary consultant.)

What will AMC do without Adam, I have been watching since day 1. It will be a big loss. Maybe when he learns how much he is missed he wil fly out and be on every once in awhile. Hope he takes Annie. I can not stand her. I wish him luck in the future.

I have never posted a comment before as our family is very private, but in this instance, my child's integrity has been compromised and I feel that clarification is in order. Our daughter is a professional and has NEVER tweeted ANY personal or professional information to David's fans or anyone else for that matter. Anyone alleging to be his daughter and tweeting such 411 is misrepresenting themselves. I hope Ms.Waldman will acknowledge and retract the erroneous statement as it has been hurtful and somewhat insulting to our daughter. Mrs C

Yes, we all love David Canary. He will be missed, but I don't blame him and wish him the best of luck. I hope he will do short term appearances so that Pine Valley won't know the difference.
We need another bad guy on the show... Maybe it's time to bring back Dimitri Marrick.

Hi Thinking 1 , I believe you are right.. it was a big mistake,we'll see how many veiwers they will lose in about 6 months. They should have taken that move to Conn..How long will Vincent commute and Susan for that matter along with other cast members. They are not happy. But.. need a Job..

I blame this whole moving to CA disaster on the ABC executive in charge of Daytime: Brian Frons. He could have thought outside the box to keep AMC on the East Coast. If I'm wrong, I apolgize. But losing David Canary breaks my heart. What a gifted actor we are losing due to somebody's mistake! This could have all been avoided, in my opinion. David, you were fantastic!
