    Comments: It would be a real loss to the show if Martha Byrne leaves she's such a major part of ATWT and really helps support the show and it's fans. How many more fantatsic actors do we have to loose first Scott Bryce and now Martha. And Martha is an important part of the show and why Lily is such a great character because, who knows the character better than the actress herself, whose played her for over 20 years, the writers may write the words but Martha makes it reality and brings Lily to life. And if they allow Martha to leave then they're making a huge mistake.

    Comments: Bosses of ATWT, shame on you!!!!!! Martha is a great, devoted , human and LOYAL actress, who deserves better than this. You should save her for ATWT and perhaps have a good talk with Chris Goutman for allowing this. Don't let Martha go!

    Comments: I am very dissapointed that Martha Byrne will be leaving ATWT. I started watching the show 25 years ago as a teenager and I feel like I grew up with "Lily". I hope that something can be worked out to keep Martha. ATWT has lost so many popular characters: Craig, Dusty, Will & Gwen, Rosanna. The loss of Martha Byrne's version of Lily will be a tremendous blow to a show that seems like a skeleton of it's former great self. Thank you for your time and any consideration.

    Comments: ATWT has been the only soap I watch and have been doing so for 25 plus years and I don`t even recognize it anymore. What`s with all the new characters and getting rid of all the ones that have made the show the success it is. What is wrong with the powers that be that call themselves writers, I can think of several things to call them and none of them are printable. The final straw is getting rid of Martha. So on that note I guess I will fins something else to do every day from 2 to 3.

    Comments: Martha Byrne is truly a great actress. Without her playing the part iof Lily it''ll feel absolutely wrong! I remember her playing Lily as a teen meeting Holden in the barn. This actress has history with the show. ATWT is changing so much I'm having a very hard time watching it. KEEP MARTHA AS LILY!!

    Comments: To JP, CG, and all your buddies...you're some of the stupid executives in power. You wouldn't know talent if it bit you in the ass. So many wonderful & fan fave actors have been character assaninated or just plain killed because of your stupidity. They are enough kind people on youtube I can watch my favorite couple, if you don't kill one of them off, without tuning in. Enjoy losing viewers, idiots.

    Comments: The only people that should be leaving the show are Chris Goutman and Jean Passanante for destroying almost every single character that I grew up loving. I started watching ATWT because of Martha and Jon Hensley and for yet another beloved performed to be asassinated, underused, and now apparently gone is not something that anyone should do without understanding the repercussions of their actions. Goutman continues to mismanage the show's history and assets and there is no punishment. This show has become a parody of what once was and I am so sad that there are no checks and balances to offset temporary ratings increases due to show and awe storytelling. Shame on TPTB. Soon it will be Maura West and Elizabeth Hubbard already walked once. Goutman's ego made the amazing Larry Bryggman take off and the pattern goes. I've already started weaning myself off the show as no amount of Ameeras, Sophies, Bonnies can make up for 1/10th of what Martha brings to the show. I am furious.

    Comments: Its time to gut the Producers, Writers and other Powers that Be and leave the actors alone. They are struggling mightily with the incompetence of those above them and we're tired of losing the people we actually tune in to watch while TPTB stay on, corrupting our favorite show!

    Comments: In an effort to save money and/or maintain the hierarchy of power, the shortsightedness of allowing the wonderful Martha Byrne leave the show will be devastating to fans and damaging to the reputation of the show and its producers. Some things are immeasurable by monetary means (such as chemistry, creativity, development of character) and such a terrible loss to ATWT would be devastating.

    Comments: I have watched ATWT since the 70's & with Martha's exit, I will stop. It is insane that all the veteran actors are being replaced with young, dull, uninteresting ones (eg. Sophie, Casey). The story-lines are ridiculous. I've had enough. Reruns on the food channel are more entertaing. Goodbye, ATWT!

    Comments: I can't believe they are not trying to keep Martha Byrne on as Lily. I have been a faithful viewer for 25 years but I have been very disgusted with the way my favorite characters have been written the last few years. I'm afraid that this will be the last straw for me. The executives may wonder why their ratings are down--it's because the faithful viewers are tried of their favorites not being written well and not being together. I've tried to keep watching with Jack & Carly not being together but this will put the final nail in the coffin. The powers that be should do anything to take care of the actors that are loved by the audience and pay them to keep them.

    Comments: Martha Byrne has so much potential, I love her and Jon Hensely but I feel the writers have forgotten that their love is about Lilly being in harms way and Holden saving her. Instead they let her be in harms way and let Holden turn into a mindless nimrod. Then they tried to turn it around. I am sure she is sick of the boing story line and wants to move on. I wish her all the luck if she leaves, and guarentee you I would be watching what ever show she went to. I would say one thing to As the World Turns. * Bring the fire back with the characters you have. I can help you with writing ideas. Don't drag the characters down so low there is nowhere to go but out. Lily has been made to look like and idiot for the past year. Even with Dusty you knew it wasn't real. I was ticked when Holden lusts and lusts after other women and Lily always takes him back, but when Lily hides a whopper she is not to be forgiven. Sounds like the writer for that story line had a bad love experience and tried to take it out on Lily and Holden. Well As the World Turns if you let her go, it is definetly you lOSS>

    Comments: Please, please save Martha Byrne as Lily. With so many of our favorites leaving the show, it will be hard enough without losing Lily. She's a wonderful actress and should never be recast. It ruins he show for me. I would rather see the character killed off than recast.

    Comments: It has clearly come to the fan's attention, that TPTB have lost their minds, when they did not do everything in their power to keep Martha Byrne. Martha Byrne should be kept at all cost, and the only ones who needs to go is Chris Goutman and Jean Passanante.
