The Young and the Restless Phyllis and Cane hooking up was not on our bingo card for this year. However, we don’t hate it, and we know that’s not a popular opinion, but hear us out.
Key Takeaways
- Cane and Phyllis deserve each other on Y&R.
- They have chemistry simply because they are trying to screw the other one over.
- Y&R needs a new devious couple with chemistry to make things entertaining.
The Unlikely Duo Could Heat Things Up On Y&R
It was shocking to see Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) and Cane (Billy Flynn) get physical for sure, but their connection is undeniable. Watching these two be vulnerable, all while knowing they each have their own agenda, is what makes good soap couples.
There’s no question these two are out to screw each other over. Cane and Phyllis are only looking out for number one. That gives them a bond, especially since they are also outcasts and villains in Genoa City, making them even more interesting as a couple.
We get it, many Y&R fans don’t see the chemistry between Flynn and Stafford. They may not have sparks flying all over the place, but there’s heat with Phyllis and Cane. It’s just not in the same way as other couples when Y&R was known for love in the afternoon. The CBS soap could definitely use some more spice, which the unlikely duo definitely brings to the table.
Honestly, watching Cane and Phyllis hook up is more entertaining than some of the rest of the scenes lately.
Over on Reddit, several Y&R fans were here for more of Phyllis and Cane.
“I’m so here for Cane and Phyllis getting it on, Lily [Christel Khalil] having second thoughts, and for Audra [Zuleyka Silver] and Claire [Hayley Erin] getting into it. THAT is Y&R to me,” wrote a fan.
Another fan said, “Phyllis and Cane really have excellent chemistry (in contrast to Saint Lily),” while a different fan stated, “I mean, I’m not hating it.”
One fan declared, “Cane and Phyllis is absolutely the best thing about today’s episode. Do not care about the Adam [Mark Grossman]/Chelsea[Melissa Claire Egan]/Lily discussion or the Claire/Holden [Nathan Owens], whatever they are. I know there’s some major lies and shadiness between Phyllis and Cane, but dang!!! Figure out a way to keep these two together! Maybe just a good old-fashioned distrust to true love … just do it.”
A different Reddit thread titled, “I’m sorry Phyllis and Cane look awkward together,” had a few Y&R fans come out as stans for Cane and Phyllis.
“I think they’re hot together,” expressed a fan.
One fan shared, “I think they make a hot couple, not awkward at all…The show needs a little spice.”
“I like them. It’s no forever or true love thing. They have chemistry so why not?” spilled another fan.
Phyllis and Cane certainly have fans talking these days. We feel like they have the potential to be a hot Y&R couple in the new year.
This is an unpopular opinion, we know, so let us hear your thoughts in the comments section below.
