Members Kendall Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 *According to Carolyn Hinsey's column in the NY Daily News, Lily will leave town in April because she is still upset about Dusty's death and would not look back. Apparently, the role will not be recast (Thank God) I know a lot of people will consider this a lame ending but for me it made sense. A few days ago I even thought of this exit scenario myself. Considering that Dusty was one of her oldest and dearest friends I can see her feeling guilty about how she treated him before he died On the other hand, she's just like Felicia on GH..Leaving her Kids But again, no Recast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 *Lame Exit Alert* Leave Holden, the kids, and Lucinda behind because she feels guilty over Dusty's death? GMAFB! ATWT just proves why its a creative clusterfuck... Though I guess it's good that they're not recasting, but still, none of this should've happened in the first place...

Members truefan Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 I agree I wish they had came up for a better way for Lily to leave. MB is doing a great job playing Lily and she will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stenbeck212 Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 Abandoning your children for a weird principle only you can understand is the new recurring theme of ATWT. At least they're consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 Am I missing the part where it says she will not be re-cast? It says to watch that column for the name of the actress hired to play Lily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kandbar Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 Yeah! If I remember correctly, they are or have recasted. Hey, why not try to get Martha for the role of Tina on OLTL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WorldTurner Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 The actual article says the Lily will suddenly realize how upset she is over Dusty's death and she will leave town. It says nothing about not looking back. Nor does it say anything about leaving her children. What if she just decides to go visit Iva? Perhaps she'll even call her kids while she is away in phone conversations that we never hear her side of it. I want to see more details on this before I assume she's really abandoning her kids. And yes the article does say that Lily is being recast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheyenne Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 I much rather have a re-cast then to have Lily abandon her kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 ^^^ Same here. Re-cast her or kill her off, but for heaven's sake, don't have her abandoning her kids! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted March 14, 2008 Members Share Posted March 14, 2008 Horrible exit. A character as major as Lily deserved a big send off. Just kill her off if you aren't going to recast. I think this is to throw fans off though. They obviously got a much bigger backlash than expected, so they'll give her a half-assed exit and bring her back in six months to a year.

Members Chris B Posted March 15, 2008 Members Share Posted March 15, 2008 I just read the article and it says Lily WILL be recast: ""A door has been closed, but I have always found"it"to be"true that another one soon opens," Byrne said. Watch this space for her next gig - and for the name of the new actress hired to play Lily. http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/t..._took_turn.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NYC123 Posted March 15, 2008 Members Share Posted March 15, 2008 Ugh just as I expected from that HACK writer and that HACK EP...... Lily deserves a better exit. She should say goodbye to her family.....Having her upset over Dusty death is totally lame!!! Dusty died how long ago? 2 Months already..... DAM ATWT!!!!! On the bright side at least they are not recasting. I am happy about that because Martha is LILY!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Josh Posted March 15, 2008 Members Share Posted March 15, 2008 I agree 100%. Plus we just had that Carly leaving when Maura went on maternity leave! A recast Lily is coming...sad..but true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted March 15, 2008 Members Share Posted March 15, 2008 QUOTE (Chris B @ Mar 14 2008, 06:58 PM) Horrible exit. A character as major as Lily deserved a big send off.

They obviously got a much bigger backlash than expected, so they'll give her a half-assed exit and bring her back in six months to a year. The only "big" send-offs TIIC know is "death". As much as I won't miss Lily, I can't say I'd agree with killing her off. I can't see the purpose in having it be about Dusty...she could just go visit Iva, or any of her other relatives or go off to rehab, since she fell off the wagon again when Dusty died.

Members Soapsuds Posted March 15, 2008 Members Share Posted March 15, 2008 It is bad and good. Bad because another mother leaving her children. I guess at least when Lily returns she will have Carly to help her out with Holden and the kids. She can ask Carly what to do to gain her family forgiveness. The good is that Martha wont be recast. Either way you look at it ......it stinks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
