Members dm. Posted April 30, 2009 Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 No, don't let them. A show can't be good on one side and then this sick relationship on the other. It's too childish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted April 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 But I'm really curious. Why do they like those two? And not even like, admire? Like they're deities? Are they only smitten because they're aesthetically pleasing? They're clearly simple creatures, these fans, but they must enjoy Lane because of something more meaningful than good looks. And the funny thing is that on paper, they'd work really well. Cane, adjusting to this complex hostile white collared world from a simple and content blue collared one, Lily, the daughter of a high powered executive and a jet-setting world-famous model, divorcee in her early twenties with a "strong" modelling career about to rev up again. I'd be a fan of those two, too, if they were conceived and conveyed properly. Are they written so poorly because the y&r people know that they have a loyal group of fanatics who'd follow them to the end of the earth just to see them get married? I think I'll venture into the dark side and ask. There must be a reason behind this insanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted April 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 I agree. It's not an aspect of the show for 13-17 year olds, it's for dolts and dunces because even the Noah/Eden story has more going for it than this one. How did they even get together? I can't even remember because their history has been blocked out by all their non-adventures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted April 30, 2009 Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 After Lily was done with Daniel, on her divorce-party, they seemed to be getting along well. Then, three months later, they just kissed. The history is as boring as their present situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted April 30, 2009 Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 I kind of like them. Well, more like dont hate them. I really dont think they are all that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted April 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 Wow, sounds like they did a chemistry test and the PTB thought there were sparks that'd lead to fireworks. Surely!!! That is really sad that I still can't remember that. What a waste. I'll look up more info later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted April 30, 2009 Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 It was LML's brilliant idea. She never cared for those tests, or at least that's what I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted April 30, 2009 Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 I'm not nuts about the pairing. But I enjoy making fun of them! And if they are bringing in some fanbase-addicted tweens (which I think they are in some cases), then I think Y&R can cater to a wide-ranging audience. The problem would be when Y&R decided to make the tweens the ONLY demo it wanted to target. That is not the case right now. I'm not bothered. Honestly, every soap has its hard-core shipper fans who are (luckily for the actors) two time zones' away from stalking the unsuspecting objects of their affection. I honestly do not think that Y&R believe these kids represent the sum total of the show's audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 30, 2009 Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 Because this shiteous couple and their deluded fanbase really warranted a topic of their own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted April 30, 2009 Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 It's surprising that someone else (you all know who) hasn't already posted a few topics for this "couple." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted April 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 Well, we wouldn't have so many vets in the forefront if they did think that. But they must believe people actually enjoy them if they keep shoving them down our throats. And I think one of the biggest problems with them is how little sexual chemistry they share. They're like brother and sister. Even Katherine and Kevin have more chemistry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted April 30, 2009 Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 That's because they're probably busy writing to TPTB about showcasing a double wedding: Cane & Lily alongside Zapato & little puppy Humphrey! OMG! Humphrey in a veil would be so cute! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted April 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 I actually saw her post on the CBS board. There can't be two people in the world who love Emmy Rossum, Lane, and thought CK looked devastatingly sexy in that strapless red dress she wore last week. I swear there were multiple posts about how they wondered how Cane didn't rip all of her clothes off in that scene and went all googly-eyed after the the pup. I'll tell ya why: cause he's a 13 year old boy stuck in a 35 year old's body. Or is it 40? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted April 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 OMGZ!! With a tiara and a pink skirt! Sooooooo cute. Ooh, you're right, Cat, it is fun to make fun of. Then again, a same-sex doggie wedding would be quite controversial on Y&R... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted April 30, 2009 Members Share Posted April 30, 2009 We could break all taboos and make it a human-doggie wedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
