(SoapOperaNetwork.com) — “All My Children” casting news for the month of November.

In:

As previously reported, BethAnn Bonner premieres in the recurring role of Kat on “All My Children” on Friday, November 2. Kat owns the rundown boarding house that will be Kendall (Alicia Minshew) and Aidan’s (Aiden Turner) next stop on the run. Although Kat initially appears to be a stranger to both boarders, we soon learn that she clearly has a familiar connection to one of them. 

24-year old Finn Wittrock debuts in the role of “AMC’s” Damon on Friday, October 30. Damon is baby Stuart’s biological father. This is Wittrock’s daytime debut but he has appeared in small roles on NBC’s “ER,” and on CBS’s “Cold Case” and “CSI: Miami.” Wittrock and Sofia Black-D’Elia, who has played Bailey since October 2, will air in just a couple of episodes in November but will remain a thorn in Liza’s (Jamie Luner) side at least through December.

Aiden Turner, who was  fired from the soap in late September, will continue to air regularly as Aidan Devane in November, and also for a solid portion of December.

Limbo:

“AMC” Head Writer Charles Pratt Jr. recently revealed in Soap Opera Digest that Stephanie Gatschet’s Madison isn’t really dead. That doesn’t mean you’ll be seeing much more of the murderess in November. Madison will only appear in two episodes next month, airing during the week of the 9th. Madison’s father, James, played by George McDaniel will pop up for another episode that same week. Ray MacDonnell and Jill Larson, who play Joe and Opal respectively, will make a couple of appearances in Pine Valley at the end of the month. Look for David Canary to reprise the role of Stuart Chandler at least one more time in November. Lorenzo Pisoni, who plays A.D.A Willis, Lisa Yuen, who plays Nanny Rachael, Jenna DiMartini, who plays Corrina Gonzales, will also pop up briefly in November. The (Greenlee hoarding?) enigma known as Nurse Gayle, portrayed by Anna Koonin, briefly reappears on the scene during the week of November 16.

All the children of “AMC” will either remain on the backburner or return to it come November. If you’ve missed Spike Lavery, the news isn’t good. The Eckstein triplets, who have played the adorable young man since July 2007, have not taped an episode of “AMC” since early August. Starlet Lucy Merriam, whose character Emma Lavery has been at the center of the long-running murder story, will lead the children pack airing in just four episodes for the month.

Out:

Don’t expect a proper goodbye for the character of Taylor Thompson. It appears that Beth Ehlers last episode of “AMC” aired on September 21. The former “Guiding Light” superstar made her first appearance on the ABC soap on July 24, 2008.

Daniel Kennedy (Peter Cortlandt) and Walt Willey (Jackson Montgomery), who was last seen on-screen on August 20, will not air on the soap in November.

“All My Children” airs Weekdays on ABC. Weeknights on SOAPnet. Check local listings.
