Chauntee Schuler is exiting As the World Turns, as the series is in the process of recasting the role of Bonnie McKechnie.

It's hard to really say why, though.

When the character returned in 2007, viewers thought she and Holden were gonna to have an affair, but the storyline was quickly scraped.

Instead, for the last couple of months Bonnie had a relationship with Derek Coburn, but the couple has only appeared in a handful of episodes over the last couple months. It's a shame.

Fights and unexpected returns are featured next week on As the World Turns...

• Parker and Liberty make a run for it.

• ­Henry causes a problem for Katie, Brad and Vienna.

• Alison and Jade square off.

• Brian makes a surprising return.

Cady McClain is returning to As the World Turns.

The actress recently blogged about the exciting come back:

I am very excited to be joining ATWT again. They have shared with me some really cool ideas for bring back Rosanna and I am truly looking forward to playing the part! I know last time was rough, everyone at the show knows that, but I realized there was a writers strike going on, and that did play into some of the rough transitions.

Look for McClain to appear on the series again on May 20.
