THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Lily Has Sex With Joe! Is This The End Of LANE?

Courtesy/CBS

Courtesy/CBS

This week on The Young and the Restless, a reactive Lily (Christel Khalil) continues to mistrust her husband, Cane (Daniel Goddard) and his intentions towards Lauren Fenmore Baldwin (Tracey E. Bregman).

After Cane and Lauren shared one kiss that both their significant others Michael (Christian LeBlanc) and Lily became aware of, Lily has been on the edge once again. When she suspects, and has some video proof on her laptop that Lauren came to visit Cane at his GCAC hotel room, Lily insists that after Lauren arrived the two had sex!  Cane says he didn’t and denies it.  All Cane has tried to do his woo his wife back to get him to trust him again after the one indiscretion of a smooch with Lauren.  Lily is not having it, and becomes impulsive.

Next thing you know after having a fight at the bar of the GCAC with Cane, overheard by Joe (Scott Elrod), Lily heads upstairs and is followed by Mr. Clark.   She is so furious with Cane that she throws herself at Joe, and the two have sex! As viewers know, when Joe first came to Genoa City he often flirted with Mrs. Ashby.

Later, Lily ends up admitting to Joe’s ex, Avery (Jessica Collins) that she was with him, while Avery was wondering who broke into her apartment and suspected Joe.  When Paul (Doug Davidson), who is investigating the break-in situation leaves, Lily asks Avery if Joe will keep quiet about her tryst with him.  She also relates to Avery that Joe may not have an air tight alibi being with her, because she realized he left for awhile, and Lily was alone.

So, what do you think about the action of Lily having a romp with Joe?  Is this the one fatal mistake that will end the marriage of Lane?  Will Joe end up blackmailing Lily?  Is Joe  just a womanizing creep?  Should Lily get bitch-slapped, or do you think she was justified in her actions?  Share your thoughts below!

THESE TWO CHARACTERS ARE PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER……PLEASE LET CANE MOVE ON….. LILY HAS BECOME A HORRIBLE CHARACTER TO WATCH….SHE DESERVES JOE!!

More like the end of Joe…lol

I hope Cane dumps that childish, out of control, crazy woman Lily once and for all.

LOVING the shakeup to the Cane and Lily saga; it is long overdue. Cane and Lily, as well as Lauren and Michael seem to be “untouchable” to fans, so I’m over the moon excited that both pairings are being dismantled and shaken up a bit! Other regimes only rattled them, but the minute fan outrage came, they stopped. Not this time, and I’m loving it!

So it’s all about revenge on fans for you Not the quality of a story

I find the quality of the story compelling, and better than anything that’s on daytime currently, aside from what’s airing on B&B.

Seems as though Pratt is having fun splitting up a lot
of couples. Lauren and Michael. Nikki and Victor.
Avery and Dylan, etc. Even though Avery will be gone soon,
she could have been written to still be with Dylan until
she leaves.

And now Lily’s romp with Joe creates another emotional
split, even if Lily and Cane stay together.
The only good thing about what she did is that it seems
to have brought her down a bit from that high horse she
has been on for quite awhile.

Yeah, Nanci. She’s like a mad dog (well; bitch) with a bone to pick. I’m not too crazy about Cane much, either. This is a young couple who should be shouting its “love” from the rafters…be spontaneous and do it on the kitchen counter, for Pete sake…the kids can’t ALWSYS be home…..but the two consistently book hotel rooms to get their hotness on. As my Gran would say, “they can’t get their groove on.”
Yes, too many relationships and marriages are going down the tubes. I wish I knew where all this is going. …so disappointed. This is my show ….I have treasured this soap forever. It just isn’t the same Y&R anymore.
I must admit, though, Nanci, as distorted as the interlude between Joe and Lily may have been? I saw sparks flying….surprising for Lily, since I always considered her a cold fish just going through the motions. There was a fire going which was never lit between Cane and Lily….my opinion.

This is too silly to even mention, but…..Lily borrowed a dress from Avery? Yeah, sure!! Avery is AT LEAST two sizes bigger…too much room up top. Not only that, but, that is not Avery’s style. Avery has no style. Sorry, just had to say it…..welcome to the fantastical world of soaps, y’all !!.

Yes, Cee Cee, the two women are built differently for sure. Both have great figures but yes, they have entirely different body types. To punctuate the ridiculousness of that moment, that white dress fit Lily like a glove–it was almost too tight.

@Harry.
The white dress on Lily looked ‘mahvelous’….she made it look thus. It was a perfect fit. I cannot picture that dress on Avery…nor in her closet….not the right style for wide pelvic bones (hips).
And, yes, both have great bodies….just different.
It is very refreshing to have a guy so into women’s habillement. I wish my husband had an eye for that….LOL.

Hi CeeCee,
Lol, I know! I was thinking the same thing when Lily
waltzed out of Avery’s bedroom wearing that dress. I waa like
Huh? But I did like the scene with those two. They could have
had a nice friendship all this time.

She is a biiiiiiiiiig hypocrite, and dumb too. Does anyone in GC ever first confirm that their husband/lover actually cheated before they jump in bed for revenge sex?
When Cane finds out, and you know he will, he will be jumping right into the aging sex kitten’s bed. Lauren just can’t wait to get her hands on him.
I can’t WAIT for Hillary to find out. lmao
The dress cracked me up too, no way could Avery wear that dress.
What’s with Lily hitting the bottle anyway, she was never a drinker.

@Sammie Jo.
Hi, Sammie Jo,
I don’t recognize most of these characters any more. Well, except for Lauren…poor thing ; she’s always been a nympho. Just can’t help herself.
And, yes. When Hilary finds out, Lily will have to eat crow with bitter/sour sauce. What poetic justice !!

Nanci, hi
Pratt is also putting other couples together..
Old couples having a breakup, new couple beginning from it..
(that is balance…

Nooooo, Su. Make him stop, lol.
Pratt is doing too many split-ups at once I feel like.
Kinda like a game of Ok, one, two, three….everyone
switch partners…Go!

A Joe/Lily/Cane triangle.

It’s almost like this show wants the viewers to tune out…

I did.

Well… you did give us the option of Lily getting “bitch-slapped”…

I’m trying to get the image out of my head of Lilly mounting Cane in her hotel room. It was so disgusting seeing her wrapped around his waste with those gangling arms and legs hanging off him! Freeing up Cane might reignite the character of Cane. He has been such a snore! It wont happen anytime soon though. He will kiss her azz, bed her and she will end up pregnant! Joe or Cane’s? WHO CARES!

Sorry, I meant “Mounting Joe!” See, I am traumatized!

lol

——– GIDDY UP !!
She was ready to ride!

Ha ha! Timm, you’re very funny.
Yep–cut Cane loose. I always thought he was too good for Lily anyway.
But dear God, please do not pair him up with Lauren.

Lily can’t get pregnant Timmm. She had cancer & had to have a hysterectomy. Of course, Pratt will write it anyway knowing him. That’s as nuts or more than Kristen on Days, who is 55 AND had a hysterectomy, impregnating herself recently w/Theresa’s baby. LOL

Exactly, Timmm. The same thought went through my head. That is what will happen. And, this fact will keep Joe in GC.

if lily ends up pregnant then it will definitely be a re-write of history – lily can not have kids because she had ovarian cancer & a hysterectomy back in 2009 – they had a surrogate carry the twins……….

It wouldn’t surprise anyone if history is re-written elm51. I’m sure ‘they’ will think of something…such as…..’oh, the doctors only removed one ovary and left the uterus and other ovary intact’.
It wouldn’t surprise me if Nikki were pregnant….LOL. anything can happen……dig that orange hair!!!! FAROUT!!

Ashley, Phyliss, Victoria & Sage aren’t supposed to be able to get pregnant either, but they all did. Miracle babies. lol
Speaking of pregnancies, I don’t believe for a minute that sharon is pregnant, she invented that to see if nick would react. Epic fail.
Please put the pregnant nikki thought away, I couldn’t live through that. lol

Lily had a complete hysterectomy, but that’s never stopped writers before. Haha.

Doesnt matter. Its like the two Jacks who have the EXACT same plumbing! Either that or Phyllis is a moron!

So tired of her. Never liked the character, very bratty and judgmental. She said her entire life she has been goody two shoes, really? Didn’t she get an STD in her teens, and runaway from home with Daniel who was on the run from the law?

That is Lilly..
but-
She is still 100 times better than Summer..
Summers squished up face (the constipated look) is much worse than Lilly’s brattyness.
Perhaps their characters can be saved with a change for both of them..

Yeah, Su.
Why can someone not tell Summer that when she scrunches up her face like that, she looks like she is having an epileptic fit? I can just see her foot (hoof) stomping at the same time.
I must say, Su…I am forever thankful the comment police, who doggedly tails me on GH, is not on this site. Wow!!! It feels sooooo good to have freedom of expression….or is that speech? Same thing, I guess. Ya?

CeeCee, hi
Michael is awesome here with his forum allowing us to have expression of speech..
I have praised him for that..
We are quite opinionated herein but we always do it with respect for each other..
We can post our very different opinions and we do it in fun or even serious but always with respect for each other, and that is a very good thing.
It is the internet. The internet is not censored. When we come here we are Michales guests and he treats well, great hospitality.
There are times some of my comments don’t make it LOL but that is OK and expected, not all my junk is worthy of a pulitzer prise ahaa!
The cornerstone of America is our freedom of speech and expression.. Much blood has been spilled for that right and cherished above all.
Still, there are boundaries- politeness and good manners! (ask my mom!!) ..
I see us as a very good group 🙂 🙂 (enthusiastic !!

Hi, Su.
I have been saying this forever. I love these sites, and we do respect each other.
You and I agree and disagree; but, we do so with civility, with lightness of heart.
Therefore it is up to no one except Michael and his moderators to tell any of us our writing is less than appropriate…not other posters who have appointed themselves as the keepers and guardians/wardens of what or what not to post.
I also take it in stride to be called names because of my age?that is so rude. Being older does not give anyone the right to verbally abuse another poster. We have a voice and will verbally defend ourselves. God did not put us on this earth to take a beating…verbal, physical, emotional or intellectual.
I have also repeatedly said, that I can separate the actor from the character. If I come down, as everyone else, on a character, it seems that I, you, or Shay get bashed fro expressions our thoughts. Chastised, in fact. it has been so much fun, lately, hadn’t it, Su? We could freely express ourselves without watching over our shoulders. But, IT’S BAAAACK !!!!
Yes, there is Harry, but I love his levity…he tells it like it is, without being disrespectful. He has this innate quality of dry humor that is very rare….as does Timmm…and so many others. True, true gentlemen. My favorite? James75. He is sweet and tries so hard not to step on anyone’s toes. Bluejay is nice too…I miss him.
The whole point of these sites is to agree or disagree…so why the kick in the butt from a very minute number? Beats me !!! Pardon the pun.
You love Tony, I love Genie. You say your ‘stuff’ and I’ll say mine…..we do not berate each other for our differences….we talk about it. Sometimes you make me laugh in the way you express yourself, and I tell you so…LOL. But we have been spat upon (figuratively speaking) for our opinion. No anonymous contributor, sitting behind his/her computer will deter me.
I, for one, will not have my thoughts and opinions repressed……it’s against everything in which I believe. Besides, it’s against my religion…LOL. Later.

I like Joe..
Joe is the good guy, wait for it..
Lily is a pain in the arse and dingbatty- not good enough for awesome Joe..

talk about disappointment!… They didn’t even show the pretend nasty!
With a hunk like Joe they should show wild hot and sexy !!
I got nothing, not even a naked leg.. what’s up with that..
I gotta give the event a D+
(I didn’t give an F (for failure) because of the kiss ..

I know, Su. We were cheated…LOL.
I like Joe, too. But, if he was/is abusive with Avery, or any woman, that is a no-no…taboo. I am not into domestic violence!!!!
You can bet he will be a suspect, again, in Avery’s disappearance. Perhaps, she may re-surface down the road, as it were.

Jimh…I did not forget you, my friend….you are like my favorite ice-cream…..pistachio with sugar on top. Yup!!

Oh lord the crazy Lilly and Cane fans are gonna lose their s***! Good, the show needs to change that couple up.

I always thought Lane was too over the top lovey dovey. Charles Pratt is disgusting in the way he portrays women and JFP hates women! Those two are not only destroying every GC couple but they’ve changed YR for the worse.

lol
What about the disgusting way men are portrayed ..
Seen as;
rapists, killers, cruel, domineering, suckers, liars, users did I say stupid… lol

Seems to me Joe may be heading for a dirt nap. We already have 4 suspects: Caine, Lilly, Dullen and Avery.

Add Phyllis to that list Rob!!! (Sharon would take the fall for. She’s blamed for everything.)

I don’t think it was Joe who raped and beat Avery.
After she walked away from him in the park you immediately heard footsteps following her. It could not have been Joe because he walked in the other direction.
Marco was in that same park (Chancellor Park) setting things up for the ultimate set up for Victor. I am thinking her is such a sociopathic animal that he saw Avery and jumped her.
What I am fearing is that the writing seems to be veering toward Victor Vindication……again. He set loose a rapist and a killer on the citizens of Genoa City. This is on him so they better not make Victor out to be Marco’s victim.
He created this monster and set him loose.

It was so hard to see Avery like that with her face scratched up,
tears in her eyes, so violated and looking so defeated and deflated
and just hurting so much. But I agree that it wasn’t Joe who did it.

Lolly deserves everything coming to her.

Cane was so much more likeable and sexy when he was with Amber. I have never liked Cane and Lily together. Lily was better with Daniel.

Please bring Amber back … pronto!

Just what YR needs; another over the hill blond who can’t act. It was Cane who? Until Christel’s Lily!

Not the way I remember it. Cane was never more alive than when he was with Amber.

I agree–he was actually fun when paired up with Amber! He smiled….he laughed! Now all he does is apologize and explain,

Another pointless sexcapade. More cheating. Nothing they ever do with Lane will be interesting. They are boring and need to move on!

Revenge sex is such an contrived plot device that writers only use when they want to see characters who would not sleep with each other normally, have sex. And it was so blah to watch, it wasn’t even a hot sex scene–. Only Y&R can have a sex scene with someone as gorgeous as Scott Elrod and make me cover my eyes in embarrassment because it was too awful to watch.

Lily was never my favorite character but I feel so sorry for the actress who is being force to play her as this whiny brat– Lily used to be spunky, independent and daring, what they did to her should be a crime. It is obvious JFP known dislike for strong, female leads is coming through by her green lighting all these stories that have reduce all the women on this show to either childish whimps or helpless victims.

The way they butchering every character on this show, right now I would almost relieved if they would kill off the lot of them– and end the show and put me and them out of their collective misery. But then I take a breath, and cross my fingers and hope another writing change will come soon and hopefully this time they will take the producer with them.

Until they put this show into the bloody ground they will not be satisfied! CK was once a decent actress DG has always struggled and SE just a greasy wanna be!

AMEN!!!!!!

Absolutely right! I haven’t cared for Lily that much but the degree to which the characters behave differently than they used to is appalling! That lame speech Cane gave her while clutching a giant bouquet of – excuse my will I try to not puke – LILIES, good LORD. And I cannot think of a precedent on the show where it would make logical sense for Cane to put Lauren’s needs before Lily’s and to be so concerned about her feelings. Instead, he would say, “et me call Jill for you”.

And all these contrived moments where Lauren is just tottering about the GC Athletic club asking Cane if he had a moment to set things straight with Lily — it’s RIDICULOUS and so fake. If they want to break up Lily and Cane and Michael and Lauren, then do it with more believable storylines. And pair them up with better matches. That kiss between Cane and Lauren was gross.

I said it before and I will say it again – these characters have survived doppelgängers like Sheila Carter, diseases like cancer and cretins like Carmine – but they will not survive Chuck Pratt Jr.
So sad.

Cane was gross to Lily and just plain stupid. He knew Joe was after his young sexy wife. He should have seen this coming but he kept it up, hurting Lily over and over to tag behind that old broad. Cane might as well have said to Joe here mate, hit this for me. I’m too busy over here trying to get with this cougar.

What was Lauren doing knocking on Cane’s door at midnight anyway?

Bettina, that made me laugh out loud.

Harry, I don’t know what Lauren was doing knocking at his door but both she and Cane denied it so vehemently I wonder if someone – like Joe or one of his thugs – did something to the security footage to make it look like it was Cane’s room or to make it look like it was midnight. Either way, it’s one of those bizarre plot threads that makes no sense and is just randomly thrown in there. For example, Ashley’s BRAIN SURGERY. Uh, she looks amazing for someone who just had brain surgery and what the heck was the point of putting her through random surgery???

Lol, Lucia.
I said just about the same thing.
About that kiss between Lauren and Cane? He probably thought it was pretty gross, too. Yucky!

I hope this isn’t the end. Lane are perfect for each other . Cane dismissed Lily time and again in favor of the needy Lauren. Instead of explaining why in DA HELL Lauren was in his room Cane got insulted. Really? As if Lily had no reason to be distrustful. Lily was hurt and felt rejected by her husband and she did a very bad thing but her actions didn’t happen in a vacuum. I hope that Cane remembers all the times Lily has forgiven him. I think in time they’ll find their way back . They love each other too much.

The character of ‘Lily’ has basically been a prop for other characters’ plots for several years – why she appears the way she does to some. This latest foray by writers is truly disturbing. Sad Y&R can’t write anything except the lowest behavior in their quest to entertain.
As for Lane, hope they weather this. They are the only realistic pairing on this show.

Lily and Cane are dynamite. They are my favorite couple. I hate that Pratt is writing them out of character but Lily and Cane will get through this storm and be stronger than ever.

I find it disgusting that the only way Pratt, Phelps, and McDaniel can find a way to create drama, for a pairing, is to have them bed someone else. For this Lane “s/l” to float, both Cane and Lily’s personalities had to be written out of character. So boring. Pratt and Phelps are one note writers with no imaginations, at all. Hell, Pratt started this bs by resurrecting a story he wrote for Melrose Place 20 years ago. Pathetic.

As for Lily, they have had every man in her life, her father, brother, and husband dismiss and disregard her. Joe, being the predator he is, started listening and being nice too her. Not surprised to see Lily had “sex” with him. Dumb, dumb, dumb….the storyline is too stupid for words. The real Cane Ashby would NEVER treat Lily the way Pratt’s Cane has. SMDH!

Lily Ashby is a beautiful, smart character. Cane and Lily Ashby are THE 21st century couple for YR. Too bad the idiots, in charge, and not give them a s/l truly worthy of them. Lily, as usual, has to give the newbie something to do as he’s not really making it elsewhere in GC. How many times do we have to see her used like this? Where is their house? Where are their children? WTH is the show only using about 3 sets total?

Pratt, Phelps, and McDaniel are lame and should be fired.

Pratt really has no other way to create drama than breaking couples up or doppelgangers. Good call on the “so old it’s crusty” Melrose Place s/l of his that he has copied here.

Lily has changed so much. Makes me sad. She’s almost unbearable now. I too have wondered where their house went. The 3 sets only are pitiful. Y&R could’ve taken some of that Flirt W/Disaster budget & put a few more sets back on the show. It’s pitiful seeing these corporate bigwigs having staff meetings in a lab. Absolutely pitiful.

This is what Pratt does – regurgitates/plagiarizes stuff that was seen in primetime TV 20+ years ago and younger (read:stupid) viewers are enjoying it!!

Dopes!!

WORD.

I know lane will survive this! I hate Micheal for setting this in motion.
Yes Lily was wrong but she acted on impulse her man kept hanging around Lauren . He always defended her and kissed her. She thought he was cheating and here came Joe showing interest in her. She was confused. I’ll forgive her and I know Cane will too (eventually). love #lane

Pratt just dirty Lily up to give Hevon and Trashmore a pass ,they did not have to destroy a character ..Anyway CK did a good with the story she was given, kudos to her.

Sandra..
There was destroying of Lilly..
That character bottomed out a long time ago..
Anything Pratt can do to Lilly to make her ever a wee-bit interesting, he should go for it..
And that includes; Prostitution, kleptomaniac, slutery, poledancer or simply a cheating wife..
GO PRATT !!

Yes Pratt– Please GO! Get the hell out! Don’t let the door hit you where the good Lord split you (ask your man, he knows the spot!)

That is exactly what Pratt did! Lily NEVER would have done that, anymore than Cane would run behind Granny! Pratt went way overboard on writing their characters OOC to float this ill conceived Story to break Lane up, just like he did with the Hillary mess. At least he gave one thought to two Jacks; Gabriella Adam stories.

Lilly and Cane need to OOC, big time !!
it’s about time they have a change…

Why would Lily need to be bitch slapped and by who? Your hate for this character is showing yet again. Do you ask that of all female characters on this show who do wrong? Smh..

First of all.. Cane is no innocent party. There were events that led to what Lily did. Do I like what she did? No. But I get why. Having your husband spend so much time with another woman, repeatedly choose that woman’s needs over her and kiss that said woman would do that to a person. So why wouldn’t she think they were really having an affair… Trust has always been a factor in there relationship.

Not a fan of this plot point mess but Christel Khalil is doing great work. The only saving grace for this story. I’m hoping she and Cane will work things out in the end. They are a beautiful couple together and it would be a shame to end it over a stupid mistake. Lily did forgive Cane for his countless lies so I hope he returns the favor. Rooting for them!

Lisa, to whom are you speaking?
I never liked Lily. I always thought she acted like a spoiled petulant child.
Moreover, I believe she was a school girl in a private school uniform when she met Cane.
it should be explored that she was too young to marry Cane and that maybe she needed to grow up a little before she married him. I feel she is stuck in a state of arrested development.
And she was a mean girl in the past–I remember how she picked on both Amber and Chloe back in the day. Nope. Never liked her. Cane can do better in my opinion and NO! I do not want to see him with Lauren–never liked her much either although Tracy Bergman has been pulling in some amazing performances as of late.

I like the idea of Cane being paired with someone else but not Lauren!!! I kinda would have liked Cane and Abby !!

You want Lily bitch slapped? What for? For not believing her husband who has never lied to her…oh. Wait. Are you kidding me? He lies all the time.

She sexed Joe; And? It’ a soap. Plus Cane LIES all the time! It’s basically part of his character. Lying liar who lies,, Too bad Lily loves him; he doesn’t deserve her or half the time his children really; never did. He treated Lily like crap, and she is supposed to believe him? Whatever. She reacted like many woman (especially in the soap world) would. I mean, serious, this is soap 101. Have someone do something based upon good evidence that turns out not to be true. I can pretty much guarantee how all of this will play out over the next 6-18 months

Plus Cane better hang on tight before Adam, or Joe (who will probably be innocent, Soap 101) takes his woman. A kiss is cheating and Cane cheated first, Lily finished it. But I refuse to let TPTB, writing Lily out of character just to allow Cane to be white washed when he cheats, bring my love for them down because together they, when written correctly, are the best couple on Y&R.

By the way Fairman, when are you doing a Christel Khalil interview? Waaay past due, as is a LANE one. What’s up with that? Just sayin!

Great! Hopefully, we will have more Christel than Daniel; you interview him all the time.

CEE CEE,
I agree with you about that dress. The first thing that popped into my head when I saw Lily wearing it was, Avery isn’t that small. Did she have it in her closet for years; waiting for someone who could wear it?

When Cane said to Lily today “I want you to be honest with me….” I thought of those who hate on LANE, Lily more particularly. When you say Cane is too good for her, considering his history of lies, and their history of being annihilated by biased HW/EPs who need therapy, do you really want to bitch or dick slap Lily because she is all that you claim OR because you have another motive which you do not want to disclose but is still visible? YR need at least ONE couple in love and the beautiful Lily and her husband, though he is flawed is it. They represent HOPE and Love; what’s wrong with that? I should ask that question of Pratt and JFP but I feel that would cost them more in therapy fees. Finally you have YOUR favs on YR, those you still love through crappy writing, Sybil personality changes; what if I called you deranged for liking them? Thanks to Christel and Daniel, they can turn crap into cheers together and we love them for that. Tired of being bored with unattractive people, rarely young, mostly OLD, thinking they are at a frat booty call party or a bath house from the 80s! Long Live LANE; it’s Cane’s turn to forgive, like Lily has many times when he has ripped her heart out; he put it in motion with Michael. THEY LOVE EACH OTHER AND THAT KIND OF LOVE IS RARE FAIRMAN!

We all have our opinions. We need to respect that, AngieMac. There is no need to be rude.

Christel Kahili Is really knocking her acting chops in stupid s/l. I love Lane and what they represent. Their 21st century family which makes something extra special for the show.
Pratt and Phelps the monster’s that they are will never realize the GOLD that they have in this couple.
The REAL Cane and Lily would have never done what Pratt/Phelps are having them to do.
Daniel Goddard and Christel Kahlil are just awesome as Cane and Lily.

I wonder how she’s going to explain her hypocrisy when Devon and Hilary find out. Not that sleeping with your father’s wife is 100% the same, but she should still get bitch slapped. I have to say, it will be nice to have Cane be the good one for once! He’s always on the defensive. That was a good choice by the writers if they were going to mess with Lane.

Sad to see Lily cheat with Joe.

From the sound of todays episode, Joe’s days are numbered.

This show makes less and less sense every day, enjoy the stunt spike in ratings. How doe Jack come back, change into a suit and not tell anyone what happened?!?!?!

This is not the Y&R we all know and love.

No it’s not, Rob and it’s pissing people off!!

This show has become ludicrous and insulting with one stroke of the head writer’s poison pen – just awful!!

Yeah, not only did he change into a suit, but he just happened to pick the same one Marco was wearing, plus the same shirt, and even the tie was almost identical– that too silly to be credible that it doesn’t even rate an LOL.

I so agree with many of the comments made by those that love and get what a couple like Lane bring to The Young and the Restless. This whole story line has been very offensive. The biggest offense is writing Cane and Lily to not be true to who they are. I don’t know why some think that every character should possess the same qualities(namely cheating) There are many like myself that find no entertainment in it. I wonder if effort will be put into building Lane back up. They haven’t had a true story/enjoyable story for years. Now all of a sudden Lane is worthy for dialog, once they write something for the characters that they knew would be hurtful to their fans. So sad and unnecessary. Also Michael Fairman I find you “bitch slap” comment offensive. But I shouldn’t be surprised, just more of the same dislike shown towards the character and Lane. Ones hoot and holler about how much they dislike Lane but yet their drawn to every pic,comment,website,twitter account,facebook account etc that focuses on them. That tells me the overwhelming appeal of Lane. It would be nice if someone in charge would get it together and make it right for Lane.

Lily and Cane are one note..
same from them for years== BORING! LACKLUSTER!
Lily and Cane are like looking at toe clippings..
They are a horrible soap couple/ wallpaper, just there.

Boring but yet you watch and follow them. Many disagree with your charecterization of Lane We enjoy them as they are and we like what they represent Instead of trying to make everyone the same, it should be an appreciation for difference

Thank you! If you asked me anything about the new Adam I could only tell you he is blond, cute, not a fit for Chelsea. Can’t get into him and don’t get me started on Sage. Both characters bore me as if the case with many others. I would think YR would welcome me on the occasional days I watch when LANE is on; same is true for other veteran viewers. Writing all characters OOC because you CAN shows lack of writing talent. You’re killing us here!

Mr. Fairman, I find the question of whether Lily should get “bitch-slapped” offensive and I don’t like the character of Lily. I realize you’re not writing poetry here but the least you could do is come up with a different way to say that Lily should face the consequences of her actions. Like: “Should Lily face the consequences of her actions?”. Would you suggest a physical retribution for a male character who cheated? Quite disappointing.

I vote;
YES! Lily should be bitch slapped ..
and-
Michael Baldwin, he should be bitch slapped too !

I love Lily and Cane as a couple. The chemistry between those two is AMAZING!! Lily and Joe are also AMAZING! She should have both! I mean the rest of the characters on the show have slept with each other and their others for YEARS! GO SEXY LILY!!!!

after all y n r fans have had to endure the past months and until prattt and jfp are canned, we should get a joe sex scene once every two weeks! bring back jill and i d love for her to get her panties wet for joe! hell , i d watch joe have sex with esther!
love a cup of steamy joe!

Cane screwed up big time this time with his latest line of lies and had the nerve to get an attitude! Lily reacted to what she saw, knowing her husband is always lying and immature. So where is his remorse, his explanation? Nothing happened because that liar SAID so? He actually said I respect our marriage to much to cheat! He didn’t respect it enough to RESPECT Lily by dissing her in front of that old woman or for Devon. I wouldn’t believe him either! He has told two major whoppers to Lily in less than six months and both hurt her. He had better fix it, quick!

I like Lily and I love Joe..he’s good looking to me

They look good together..

I say bring it.. It makes Lily more saucy

At the very least Joe is abusive; at worse, a RAPIST and this is who you want with Lily? Whose your Fav–Phyllis (a murderer), Chelsea (also a rapist), Victoria? If Cane or Phyllis can’t kill him, pair Joe with one of them.

So Lily needs to be bitch slapped because she made an impulsive mistake because she thought her husband was cheating on her? Okay… First of all, she didn’t set out to hurt anyone. This wasn’t planned. Would you say the same thing about HIlary who was hoeing around on her husband with his son for months or Abby who slept with Austin and Stitch. But Lily needs to be bitch slapped??? Yeah your not bias at all..

What woman wouldn’t believe her man was cheating on her given the circumstances. Were you watching the show for the past couple of months? Cane was basically Lauren’s shadow the entire time. And the last I heard a kiss is cheating as well. If anyone to needs to be bitch slapped its Lauren for kissing Cane. Lily should of done that right after Michael.

Cane has earned his mistrust from Lily. I like Cane but I lost count on how many huge lies he told Lily during there time together. And Lily forgave him every time. Would be nice if he returned the favor when the truth comes out. They are a solid couple who are sexy as heck together. This family shouldn’t be ruined with 1 mistake. But knowing Pratt’s love for destruction, I’m not holding my breath.

Bravo for this post! I am sure it is not Fairman’s intent but once again, he appears to be anti-Lily in this article without mentioning Cane’s actions which destroyed Lily’s trust. Lily’s husband needs to be punched in the face! Everyone has a favorite, Michael is no different but as a journalist, he is supposed to be unbiased. I don’t hear him calling for Cane to be decked, Hillary and Lauren to be bitch slapped or Victoria and he certainly LOVED Chloe and if one was to go by his standard of judgment, Lily would have dragged her ass several times!

SSM..
soap couples are doomed from their first kiss..
Soap drama revolves around couples cheating, betrayals, and all that nasty stuff lol..
Couples, ALL couples will have their break up .. is the way it is..
It is Lily and Cane’s turn ..

That prototype was before the internet, SM and those damn Kardashians and Housewives! For soaps to survive, they need to come into the 21st century and get rid of all the old people who were relevant back in the day. Only nasty thing about two Jacks and Victor is they are so old and gross for example. Who wants to see that? swapping partners is so commonplace no one wants to see 40 year old doing the nasty; bring in the pretty or shut it down so I won’t have to shut my eyes.

Michael, look at these posts! We all have to admit Lily is one bad bitch to make that slimed, unshaven, in need of a flea bath Joe look sexy! Christel rocks but she is a true Rock Star with Daniel’s Cane. Love them; always will, even when Cane is wrong!

Nancy Lee Grahn’s Star-Studded ALS Fundraiser Reveals “I’ll Be There” Video Featuring Soap Opera Notables

Talk about your impressive line-up! It’s a soap fans dream and for a great cause. General Hospital’s Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis) is prepping her one-night only ALS fundraiser which will feature many of her friends and co-stars.

The benefit is set for May 4th in Glendale, California. Slated to participate are Genie Francis, Jane Elliot, Peter Bergman, Maurice Benard, Eileen Davidson, Thorsten Kaye, Michelle Stafford, Stephen Nichols, Rena Sofer, Jason Thompson, Kelly Monaco, Melissa Claire Egan, Maura West, Kristina Wagner, Gregory Harrison, Trevor St. John, Kate Mansi, Kirsten Storms, Cynthia Watros, and many others.

On Wednesday, Grahn took to her social media and released an “I’ll be there” video shout-out featuring, Monaco, Elliot, Bergman, Bernard, West, Harrison, St. John and more. In a touching and important moment in the new video, Michelle Strogny, who is battling ALS, is featured.

Previously, in speaking with Soap Opera Digest on the impetus of the event, Grahn recalled, “I was actually doing Zoom events during Covid and I met this woman that I just fell in love with, Michelle Strojny. At the time, Michelle had been living with ALS for four years. Now, it’s five years. She is a mom of a teenage son, she has the most wonderful husband, and she has been dealing with this [disease] for quite a while. And obviously, there isn’t a cure yet. It’s not survivable yet. But as she says, it’s not incurable. Nothing is; it’s underfunded. But anyway, I just really dug this woman. She is so grounded and filled with grace, and she spends all of her time working to raise money for the cause. We did a fundraiser for her last year and then I thought, ‘You know what? The soaps don’t ever get together to do something for charity.’ Collectively, we have this amazing community and we don’t collectively use it for a good cause, and I think it’s such an easy thing for us to do and we could potentially really make a difference.”

As GH viewers know, Gregory Harrison is playing the character of Gregory Chase, who is also battling ALS in a touching storyline that is currently playing out shedding a light on this disease.

‘General Hospital’ Writer Shannon Peace Let Go, and Shares on Sprina: “One of My Only Regrets is to Not Have the Opportunity to Develop That ‘Ship’ Further”

As General Hospital’s new head writing team of Elizabeth Korte and Patrick Mulcahy gets off the ground and running, there are still changes a foot on the writing team.

Now comes word via breakdown writer Shannon Peace that she is no longer on contract with the long-running ABC soap heading into its 61st season. Peace shared a heartfelt message on her Instagram, thanking the fans, and the show for the opportunity and the importance of diversity in the writers room.

Peace began, “After almost 3 years on staff and 106 episodes penned, I am no longer on contract with General Hospital. Writing for this country’s longest running television serial drama has been an education of epic proportions; I will forever be grateful that I earned my WGA card on a daytime fixture that holds memories for so many.” (Peace pictured below with GH EP Frank Valentini and script writer, Charlotte Gibson from about ten months ago).

Shannon added “Even more importantly, as the sole Black breakdown writer (and only POC in the writers room) during my tenure, I pushed for vital interactions and discussions that prioritized inclusion, visibility, and representation”

The writer pointed to the example of vital interaction when in story, “Stella and Portia’s frank July 2022 conversation about the role race played in Esme’s framing of Trina is just one example of the impact I’m gratified to have had.”

Acknowledging former GH co-head writers was also part of Peace’s farewell expressing, “Appreciation to my former bosses, Chris Van Etten and Dan O’Connor – not only taking a chance on me, but for valuing my opinion and championing my voice.”

Many GH fans know that Peace was key to the development of the love story between Trina Robinson and Spencer Cassadine as played by Tabyana Ali and Nicholas Chavez. Shannon gave a special shout-out to ‘Sprina’ fans, “I also want to thank fans who were supportive of my work, especially the recognition of my love for ‘Sprina’. One of my only regrets is not having to develop that ‘ship’ further.”

She concludes her statement with,”In the aftermath of a historic writer’s strike that shed new light on the troubling ways writers are regarded in daytime, my sincere hope is that General Hospital recommits to valuing staff writer efforts and input, with a more intentional focus on diverse viewpoints — and thrives for another 60 years.”

Accompanying her post, Shannon added, “Thank you all for the love and support these last few years. I hope GH fans get all they hope for and more!”

So, what do you think about GH not renewing Shannon’s contract? Will there be more continued changes afoot? What do you think is the future of ‘Sprina’ anyway at this point as viewers wait to see if Nicholas Chavez officially returns to the show?  Comment below.
