I can't believe after all these years Lily is leaving the show. I grew up watching her. It seems like all the older characters that have been on the show are disappearing. I was wondering if they are going to replace her, or write her off the show?

Say it aint so!I can't believe it. I remember when she came to As The World Turns. The Holden-Lily love story was great to watch. I am sorry to see her go.

I am sorry to see her go also. She took a cut in pay last year because the show was struggling, and this year when her contract came up, all she asked for was to be on as much as she was last year...no money, just the same amount of air time and they said no. I can't believe that. They just get rid of all the good actors. I still miss Dr. John!

John is gone too? Wow. As you can tell I haven't seen the show in a long ,long time. If I had to guess, I stoped watching in the mid 90's. They started a storyline I didn't like and I stopped watching and I haven't been back. And of course I can't remember which storyline it was now.But I do remember my favorite storyline with Lily. It was the Dustin-Lily-Holden triangle.

They replaced Martha Bryne with Noelle Beck. I was a huge fan of Martha's and I don't really see Noelle as the real Lily. She is a good actress but she doesn't do it for me. I wish that Martha would come back.

I did like martha but i am getting used to seeing noelle. it take time for someone to replace a person who has been on for many years. I think i will get used to seeing noelle as lily and like her in the role.
