Lily and Cane Fans (No Bash)

[MsSuperSuds]

Shalaydra, t'would be delightful to see Hilary torture Neil & Devon; but they don't attract viewers. So Pratt always manages to throw Lily and/or Cane into the midst of their mess AND thus inflicts the worst kind of injuries to them instead of Neil & Devon. Hilary came to town to seek revenge from Neil but she spent the most time damaging LANE b/c LANE has an audience who wants to see them. That's the biggest reason why I want her to move on. I want to see LANE--not Hilary's scheming, manipulating, backstabbing, power hungry, ego-tripping shenanigans. Let Hilary stand on her own two feet or dirty deeds.

MsSupersuds you might be right about the writers’ refusal to show Hilary torturing the Winters men. I am hoping that they move her over to Phyllis. It would be akin to watching war between Vlad the Impaler and Attila the Hun. You may be right about me not seeing that fight because some posters think Lily should help Phyllis, who insured that her mom was confined in a mental hospital.

I really don't want Lily and Cane to be wasted on Hilary.

I'm totally sick of Hilary. If Jack or the Winters men want her, so be it. Leave LANE out of their mess. LDCOOL, I don't want LANE wasted on Hilary either. Let her battle Phyllis for Jack! MAB wasted LANE's romance on Chloe's mess and now she is returning. I can do w/o her silliness, too. I'm sick of the whole messy show and don't watch much more than LANE days which are very rare.

Lane being thrown into mess with Hilary or Chloe is ridiculous. There are some many stories that the writers can tell about Cane and Lily trying to move up the business latter and/or strengthening their family.

I want Lily and Cane to always have a great life together.

A loving relationship is one in which
the loved one is free to be himself -
to laugh with me, but never at me;
to cry with me, but never because of me;
to love life, to love himself,
to love being loved.
Such a relationship is based upon freedom
and can never grow in a jealous heart.
- Leo F. Buscaglia

Just thought I'd drop in for hot second to post something in this thread. Even though we have not been posting here, the views have continued to rise and are higher than any other thread on this MB. Somebody is still reading here. I guess Ideas for the show can be gleaned from LANE fans' posts. Ideas that we once suggested for LANE are often being adopted for other characters & couples. I'm not interested in watching other characters or couples so I hope Mal Young has something in mind for Lily & Cane.

I am sure you saw those devastating ratings. TPTB are trying to hide behind the Pre-emptions, but the highest number was only 4,510,000. I got tire of looking for the last time Y&R had at least 800,000 in the key demographics.

This idea of reducing Lane to protecting the weak Winters men from big bad Hilary is not helping. The idea that you can only see your favorites if their character is being negatively rewritten or they are cheating is not helping.

I do not have much faith in any new EP or writer. TPTB of Y&R set the standard when they fired LML who increased ratings after a year, and keep MAB for 5 years although she not only decimated the overall and key demographics ratings, but also threw away its position as CBS’s number 1 Daytime show. Each new person will bring in their favorite actors and write for those characters.
