I am in heaven! The first of All My Children's two-day 40th anniversary celebration aired today and kicked off with the arrival of Hayley (Kelly Ripa) and Mateo (Mark Consuelos). It is fantastic seeing them back, even if it is for such a short amount of time. Hayley's one liners have me rolling. I can't wait to see all the other familiar faces who have been missing from Pine Valley when they pop up today and tomorrow.

One complaint, anniversary episodes should not be wasted on characters like Madison (Stephanie Gatschet). Share your thoughts on AMC's 40th anniversary after the jump. We'll update the post with more screencaps later today.
