Now that Charles Pratt, Jr. has taken over the writing reins at All My Children, he's got major plans on revitalizing the soap opera.

"It is challenged right now," the scribe told Soap Opera Digest in an exclusive look at what's ahead in Pine Valley.

This is especially good news for Adam and Erica fans, as well as for the men on All My Children; all will go through a change.

"We're gonna get Zach off the couch," teased Pratt, adding that fans can also expect changes for the show's biggest couples: "The bond of marriage will be tested."
