Members MarkH Posted August 16, 2008 Members Share Posted August 16, 2008 Now, now, you tease us. I am NOT pro-DSLily. I thought that actress was emotionally limited, in part because (as with TS) the producers tried to make her hide her accent (NY), and so she couldn't focus on her performance. I definitely missed CK when she left the first time...she was perfect as that tortured teenage ingenue. I didn't mind that she was unlike Dru, because she was a pampered Parisian princess. But life has handed her hard knocks (dead mother where she witnessed the death, cheating husband, the Chloe affair, the statutory rape and Chlamydia (sp?), date rape drug, reveal that Malcolm was her daddy, and on and on). That would harden a girl. Even Lauralee Bell managed to harden Christine over time. But not CKLily. I don't know whether to blame the actress or the writing/direction, but something has gone horribly awry. This actress is not channeling any depth or maturity, and that is KILLING the romance with Daniel Goddard. Most of the audience is rooting for Chloe to get him, because this version of Lily has become so vapid. That is NOT good. That is not the story they think they are telling. This is a huge problem for the show, because they have mistakenly moved this to the front burner with an actress who is NOT equipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members alwild Posted August 17, 2008 Members Share Posted August 17, 2008 Only you but not me, I'll be watching the show again if CK was fired but I wouldn't watch her last days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted August 17, 2008 Members Share Posted August 17, 2008 CK is a fan favorite (not on this board, of course), an Emmy nominee and as far as younger actors go, a vet. Viewers have seen her grow up on the show. Letting CK go would inspire the same negative fan reaction that Camryn Grimes' dismissal had. Most of the "CK-haters" are DS fans who are just still pissed that she was fired, just like with the AL/TS situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted August 17, 2008 Members Share Posted August 17, 2008 Oh great, you again. Actually, I personally wouldn't stop watching. I would be royally pissed off, but nothing would ever make me stop watching. But if viewers tuned out when Adrianne Leon left, they sure as hell would tune out if/when CK left.

Members alwild Posted August 17, 2008 Members Share Posted August 17, 2008 Negative fan reaction? the fans would be celebrating, they weren't celebrating when Cassie was killed, but they will thrown a party if CK got the pink slip and guess what, it's at my place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted August 17, 2008 Members Share Posted August 17, 2008 There was no negative reaction when she was first let go in 2005. And there was only negative reaction when she returned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members y&r_fan Posted August 17, 2008 Members Share Posted August 17, 2008 There was on the boards I frequented! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted August 17, 2008 Members Share Posted August 17, 2008 Were those boards by any chance called "Christel Khalil lovers board" ? I just want some other actress (Not CK, not DS) to play the role. I want to feel sympathy for the character. I don't want to turn my eyes every time I see Lily.

Members Delta24d Posted August 17, 2008 Members Share Posted August 17, 2008 I hear that some want to boycott the Y&R because Cane and Lily broke up, I am trying to wake up, how many boycott was launched when LML destroyed most fo the characters and changed history. As a long time viewer I will never boycott. This is my show. If i have not left with the Prentiss, Brooks, Olivia and Nate and all the other characters why would I leave for the break up of Cane and Lily. I wish I liked them but I don't. I am not a hater, I am just a Y&R fan, and boycotting for such silliness is beyond me. I was on CBS and someone was saying they could not sleep. Imagine that.
