Roger Newcomb shares a Soapnet press release regarding an upcoming (weekend after next) Lane marathon. I realize Billy and Chloe are involved, but still....

Why not a marathon centered around the Kay-Marge saga? Or around the Adam saga?

Cue the 80s Hall & Oates: "I'm out of touch, you're out of touch..."

SOAPnet celebrates Father’s Day with a marathon featuring the tangled web of deception and romance between Chloe, Billy, Lily and Cane on THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS that led up to the half-brothers’ custody battle for baby Cordelia. The five hour stunt airs Sunday, June 20 from 4PM-9PM (EST/PST).

Episodes:

4P – THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS #2009-09083 (Original Air Date – 2/13/09) – At the cabin for a romantic getaway, Billy feels compelled to tell Lily the truth that he’s the father of Chloe’s baby. Chloe arrives just as he breaks the news, an argument ensues and Chloe goes into labor.

5P – THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS Episode #2009-09084 (Original Air Date – 2/16/09) – Still stunned that Chloe’s been lying about Cane being the father of her baby, Lily has no choice but to then help Chloe through her labor. Billy takes over and delivers the baby just as Cane walks in and gushes over “his” newborn daughter.

6P – THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS Episode #2009-09088 (Original Air Date Friday – 2/20/09) – In the hospital, Cane’s incredulous as Chloe and Billy tell him that he’s not baby Cordelia’s biological father – Billy is. Furious Cane declares that he’s still going to raise her, and while Chloe’s having tests done, he signs the birth certificate.

7P – THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS Episode #2009-09092 (Original Air Date – 2/26/09) – Billy shows up to visit Delia and bring her a present, but tensions are running high and Cane punches him. After Billy leaves, Cane tells Chloe he’s now calling the shots regarding Delia. Meanwhile, Billy tells Jack that he’s more determined than ever to get custody of the baby.

8P – THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS Episode #2009-09127 (Original Air Date – 4/20/09) – Just before the custody hearing is to start, Lily finally convinces Cane that dropping the lawsuit is the right thing to do. In the courtroom, Cane gives tearful Chloe the good news. She swears she’s changed and still wants him to be a part of Delia’s life.

Well at least it's not about Lane ...Thank God

They do have a strong fanbase....

They do have a strong fanbase....

Which I don't care about ....but it won't be long

until Lily finds the truth about her "wonderful" husband

Wow, this is bullsh!t, SOAPnet. C'mon, we want REAL classics!

How about a "Best of Crazy Ass Ashley" moments, where we look back on what happened post-Abortion in the 80's, what happened when she lost Brad's kid, etc.

Or since everyone's so "gay" for Y&R these days, they should do episodes highlighting that one story from the 70's. Plus. we'd get to see Brenda Dickson before she became reliant on cue cards and Dynasty-esque fashions.

Maybe they celebrating the end of Cane being Philip & they just showing how we got there.

I guess they don't care about the people who won't tune in for this exact reason that they are advertising

But are you kidding me with this marathon? We JUST freaking watched all this sh!t!

They should re-show Philip's alcohol-fuelled car accident and then his death. Followed by the episode when Kay and Jill found out Cane was "Philip Chancellor III." And then maybe Kay's "funeral" where Nina talked about P4. If they really wanted to go Holdin' Back the Years, they could show the aftermath of the first Philip's accident with Brenda Dickson's Jill swearing sweet revenge on JC's Kay.

I was just watching a Jill/Kay scene with her the other day somewhere towards the end of her run and as much as I love the Dickson it was almost embarassing how much you could tell she was reading...She looked at Kay maybe 3x?

They do have a strong fanbase....

Yea, I've accepted it.

They no longer show any old episodes of any of the soaps on Soapnet. Everything is now 4-5 years old at most.

Not that I've ever spent five consecutive hours watching Soapnet but if I had, I'd suddenly feel VERY free...

Adding another line from that song, MarkH: Manic moves and drowsy dreams (Dedicated to the person who dreamed this one up).

WTF? Really? Ugh, SoapNet sucks...

Marathon? More like a death march, if you ask me. And what does any of it have to do w/ Father's Day? Unless, of course, the message is, "Don't get anyone pregnant!".
