Surprise, surprise! All My Children's Tad just found out he has another son. This makes us want to look back at his crazy-complicated (yet always entertaining) life. Take a stroll down memory lane as we revisit Tad the Cad, Tad the Dad, and, of course, the many ladies who loved him.
Check out the Tad Martin 101 Photo Gallery here!

I would have loved to see Tad and Dix and Kathy together as a family. Just as Greenlee and Ryan are soulmates, so are Tad and Dix. Is there any way to bring them together again? With soaps, death is never the end!!! How about it?
aww i LOVE the first pic i see when i click on the link...its beau-ti-ful!! <3 there should be more pix like this ugh!!! we were soooo cheated!!!...i miss Dix & Tad sooo much.. it kills me to know Dix has nvr had netime w/her daughter!!! a daughter she fought soo hard to have w/Tad! Iit breaks my heart <3
Dixie deserves a HAPPY ending!!!!!!!!!!!
Sigh, I love Tad. The man is still just as handsome now as then. He is as just as much of an asset to this show as Susan Lucci IMO. I love that he's back on the frontburner.
But for the record the pictures used in this gallery speak volumes to me. How many of them include Dix?? (rightfully so)
Heck the TnDnK picture made the cover!!
Love the comment that says, if she hadn't eaten the pancakes family portraits like this would've been more common.
Well..no law that says the pancakes can't be UNDONE. Heck if Jesse can walk around after donating his organs and numerous ghostly sightings, why not Dix??
It's been proven ten times over that Tad and Dixie are soulmates, together forever, twinkle stepping soulmates. And MEK and Cady's chem is as alive and amazing as ever. Even showcased fully in a five minute scene. Why not capitalize on that chem, and the huge TnD fanbase by putting Tad back with the woman that made him forget every other one he ever met.
According to the wise wonderful Brooke English "There never was a Tad without a Dixie."
And according to the amazing Julia Barr, death by pancakes was AMC's death of romance.
In soaps death is meaningless anyhow. (JESSE).
So why not bring back the woman Tad gave up heaven to be with!! Please! Bring back TOGETHER FOREVER!!
BTW, forgot to add...what a beautiful gallery cover pic! there SHOULD BE and don't see why there couldn't be more of those w/ the way it needs to be...Tad, Dix and Kate-thy reunited!
ITA there's isn't an AMC or PV without MEK/Tad--talk about your sex on a stick charmer--who has become finer than wine over the years *yum*. but also IMO there isn't one without Tad and Dixie [Mike/Cady]! heck, there isn't a Tad without Dix as Brooke so brilliantly said once. I mean just look at this photo gallery...look how manys years they were a part of each other's lives-each other's everything--through the ups/downs and yet Dix [Cady] isn't brought back ALIVE and reunited w/ her true love...why? i mean they had me at "Heaven...." their very first encounter...where they locked eyes, when Tad purposely bumped into her at Myrtle's boutique and said to her..."Heaven help me, i've just forgotten every women I've ever met". not to mention, i just love how love snuck up on both of them....they were friends first and Tad for the first time didn't even know why he cared so much about someone, wanted to be around them, protect them no matter at what cost...until it hit him during/after their very first dance together. then there was Dix who refreshingly wasn't like every other woman who had been in his life, following him around like some puppy dog. which brought us ultimately to "The Tad Test"--at the abandoned store, where LOL he gave her verbal and chemical situations to prove to her, she was in love w/ him. *aww* then the infamous chicken suit proposal followed and much more. *sigh*
and yet their long-time suffering, die hard fanbase aren't getting their payoff...reward after about 20 years w/ their super couple and first bio child [who they've already been cheated of as it is]....WHY??????
In my mind, there isn't an All My Children, or a Pine Valley without Tad Martin!!!!! His various escapades thru the years were so much fun to watch! And now, there is a "Tad The Cad, Jr," what a wonderful story line! My only issues is how much gray hair he has now. Wonder if he'll stay that way or change it in case of a new love in his life..... If he runs out of women there in Pine Valley, I might have an idea........ mmmmmm.......
