I'm confused. Does autism = unable to show emotion? Why does Lily show absolutely no emotion when she's talking about her "great love" for Jonathan? She delivered her lines so incredibly flat.

I don't know Minkie. I have a friend who's daughter is autistic and she's very much able to show her emotions good and bad. And there is a boy that my daughter grew up with in school and he is also autistic and was unable to stop himself from talking out and kind of rambling when it was inappropriate. But not like how they are writing Lily. With him, we'd all be at a play and in the middle of dialogue he'd start talking LOUDLY about I want dinner now or something not even related, just off the top of his head and was terribly distracting for the performers. We all were used to it but the poor actors on stage would try to just talk over him. But Katie (the first one I talked about) was totally able to carry on conversations and get very excited over her friends and pets, just about anything. And when she's sad it's easy to see. Now I know there are many different types of autism but I don't see Lily as anything that I've ever been exposed to. She reminds me of someone pretending to act like a 2 year old more than autistic. I see spoiled not special needs.

Yeah exactly, that's how I'm starting to see Lily as well. I think Leven is focusing too much on the nuances of being autistic that she's not putting any actual EMOTION in her performances. I don't believe Lily has to deliver all her lines like that. It's really dull.

Lily IS dull! And I don't want to see Lily with a boyfriend either. They tried it with Sam and now for some stupid ass reason Jonathan. It comes across as wrong and it's not just me obviously. I still see a 15 year old girl with a 28 year old man and that's illegal as well as wrong. I can't get past that either. Not to mention 15 year old girl playing an autistic 18 year old, I don't care how you spin it, it's wrong. Now add in that they can't touch and Lily doesn't have a relationship with her own parent and I get to the point that I want her gone! They've ruined Lily with pushing this crap on us.

it doesn't help how shoddily written Lily is.. come on, Erica will be wearing a red dress and its not a big deal for Lily to talk to her? But then she sees a red light in nYC and freaks out....

I just can't stand her. LOL. But today I was really shocked at how bad the scene was....I never thought Leven was a bad actress but today....it was awful. Surely she can bring SOME feeling to Lily alongside the autism?
Soaps are about emotions, and passion, and all that fun stuff. And yet we have Lily who can't do any of that. Why is she here then?!?

I only saw part of AMC today....um...Babe tells Josh they can only be friends, dreams JR rescues her. JR is freaking out about Babe and dreams he loses her and his mother. Tad hints to Kendall that Zach and Dixie are having an affair. Kendall dreams that Zach and Dixie were responsible for burying Madden. Ryan spent some time with his son and then helped calm down kendall. Dixie dreamed of Kate, and then was reassured to keep fighting for her by Zach.
I think that's it....?

Charity, there were some more painful Jily scenes. Lily was writing her college essay for MIT and of course it was about how she felt normal for the first time in her life because of her husband and how she didn't wish she was like someone else now. You know what , Lily? I wish you were someone else. Anyone else in fact except for your boring, annoying ass self. Go away!!!! Jonathan had a dream too (dream sequences coming out our ears today) and in his dream he came home to find Lily gone ( ) and a note from Jack saying something about him explaining to Lily how he's been lying to her all this time. The last Jily scene today was of Lily being served the papers regarding Jack declaring her incompetent.
