Do you remember Adam Chandler and Stuart Chandler from All My Children, ‘waaaay back in the ’80s?
I sure do! The Ice Princess! Okay, that was from General Hospital, but the point remains.
I remember!
Adam Chandler, one of Pine Valley’s wealthiest businessmen, was a complex villein on All My Children whose dastardly deeds included:
- Altering a videotape to make it appear as though Babe had threatened to kill JR and using the tape to blackmail Babe.
- Being arrested for breaking and entering into a doctor’s office at Pine Valley Hospital.
- Blackmailing Erica into marrying him again.
- Blackmailing Leo du Pres into having Paolo Caseli seduce Marian (to break up Marian and Stuart’s marriage).
- Blackmailing Trey Kenyon.
- Bribing a judge to grant custody of Max to Mateo rather than Raquel.
- Faking his own death to test Erica.
- Having Stuart locked up in the West Wing of the Chandler Mansion for years.
- Hiring a photographer to take pictures of Anna and David and published that they were married.
- Hiring a thug to shoot Palmer Cortlandt.
- Illegally divorcing Erica (via Stuart).
- Leaving Krystal alone to deliver baby Jenny.
- Locking a pregnant Gloria in an abandoned building because he didn’t believe her pregnancy was in danger. Swapping Jake’s sperm specimen with his own so that Liza would have his child.
- Plotting to buy a controlling percentage in WRCW so that he could ruin Tad’s career.
- Pretending to be Stuart to get close to Krystal.
- Staging his own kidnapping to test Gloria’s loyalty.
- Switching Colby’s stem cells with another infant’s so that his genetic link to Colby would not be revealed.
He was such a sterling actor… you always knew when David Canary was playing Adam… and was playing Stuart.
Here, walk down memory lane:
