This is getting to be so ridiculous letting all the strong ones leave or firing them . Good thing summer is coming on I will definately not watch this show any longer. Wont have to tape it either in case I miss it when it's on.

I have watch Lily from the begining and only Martha can play the character. The show is blowing it, letting all the main charcters go. This show is going no where. I have been watching for 30yrs and the last 5 yrs have been the worst writing ever.

What a goof by the writers,Carly went to Chicago she was never told where to meet Kim. The Brad and Kate should come to an end,it is BORING.

I can't believe that ATWT execs' would let go of another great actor! Who will be next Carly? Jack? If ATWT execs' think that by bringing in inexperienced actors and ridiculous story lines will help ratings, they are seriously mistaken. I certainly am going to reconsider watching if the above mentioned leave.

Good bye and Good Luck Martha Byrne (Lily). We will all miss you. =(

I started watching this show when I was 12. I remember when she was the spoiled rich girl who had a crush on the poor stableboy (Holden). Holden and Lily belong together. No one, I mean on one, can play Lily like Martha. Martha and Jon Hensley have chemistry.

Heather Rattray, who played Lily (1986-1993), had no personality. She was too stiff to play Lily. I was glad to see her go when Lily ran off to Italy.

The writer's need to come up with better story lines. The Exec's need to let their Senior actors/actresses have more say in their story line.

Will and Gwen are next to go. Hmmm. How will the writer's send them off?

Wake up writer's and Exec's. You are going to lose your audience.
