Long-time All My Children fans are in for a major treat when the show airs it 10,000th episode - yes, that's 10,000! - in November.

Show creator Agnes Nixon will make a cameo.

During the hour, the series will take a look back at the past 38 years. Look for Nixon to appear as a ghost, as one of the founders of Pine Valley, when town residents gather to mourn those lost in the tornadoes.

We'll have more information on this story as it breaks.
