I hope we get all the Kiriakis men- Justin and Sonny. I would be okay if Brady wasn't involved to be honest. He should go back to boring Black family and I can enjoy the Kiriakis more without his ass involved, I know I'm not that lucky. Love the Kiriakis family, but I need the focus away from Brady, Demios, and even Victor somewhat and focus on Justin and Sonny for awhile.
I say bring on Gabi and Chad- I adore Gabi. Maybe she can make me tolerate Chad somewhat. Anything but him and boring ass Abby.
I don't think any of us are.

True. Well I'll either be right or an idiot, lol.
I don't think anyone ever ends up either of those things, because words like "ever" don't seem to apply to this show. Along with "never" and "always". Every time a new regime comes along they seem to change the rules, so to speak. I also think those words don't leave room for mistakes. Marlena would have never cheated on Roman either...until she did.

It still something people (including Deidre) would have said Marlena would never do. We don't know what is going to happen with Chad. It could be more complex, too. Meanwhile, John was in Marlena's orbit immediately after Isabella died.

I really don't know history but from what I've been told John and Marlena were always in each other's orbits no matter who they were with.

Marlena's cheating was a lot more complex. I wouldn't say excusable, but she thought John was Roman and loved him as such. Ah she was pretty much in love with him before she even found out he was Roman in 86 anyway but I agree it was way more complex than this Chad Gabi situation.
My real issue with this is they are clearly jamming it in before Abby gets back.

The comparison is that it was something people thought she'd never do. And she did it. Deidre also commented on that at the time. Chad could have exceptional circumstances too. People behave differently when they're grieving and do things they might not normally do.
After Marlena went to Roman and John went to Isabella, they weren't in each other's orbit in "that way" until immediately after Isabella died. That wasn't a particularly long amount of time. They still interacted and were close.

They still interacted and were close. Okay. If it was out of grief I would think it would happen now or before Abby is back. It's hard for me to imagine Chad cheating when she is back, even if she is difficult and they have problems. I''m probably being too naive, but the way Chad has been portrayed and his love for Abby and their family, it's hard for me to imagine. I can't see JJ and Chad having a good relationship if he's sleeping with Gabi.

Chad and Gabi reconnecting better not mean anything besides talking. I mean their history wasn't exactly positive. I certainly hope so!! Or I will be pissed. lol

I certainly hope so!! Or I will be pissed. lol Maybe Gabi starts talking about Chad alot and going on about her new job, and J.J. gets jealous and suspects there is more going on than just friendship/work and confronts Chad. Gabi may get upset that J.J. does not trust her and it makes their relationship more complicated. But in the end, he realizes she has been faithful to him all along.

Maybe Gabi starts talking about Chad slot and going on about her new job, and J.J. gets jealous and suspects there is more going on than just friendship/work and confronts Chad. Gabi may get upset that J.J. does not trust her and it makes their relationship more complicated. But in the end, he realizes she has been faithful to him all along. That's kinda what I am thinking at the moment. BF, CB and CM have made comments that make me think that a Gabi/Chad affair/romance isn't coming.
We shall see and fingers crossed lol.

Just because Chad and Gaby are re-connecting, doesn't mean it will lead to anything romantic. Guys and girls can be friends...even if they are exes.
Usually when this show says something like "reconnect" between two people it means more than just catching up.
Clothes shopping and panic rooms? Come on, those are totally setups for romance and not just friendship. Even Stevie Wonder could see it. Panic rooms for sure. Do we all remember Nicole/Eric and the furnace room?

Well Eric was. Nicole thought she was dying, but when she didn't she went right back to Daniel. The writing prior to that made it clear that Nicole WAS fighting her feelings for Eric. There was clearly a scene right after Ericole's friendship reconciliation in which she had to remind herself to focus on Daniel, which can easily lead to the idea that she basically forced herself to move on and was into a lot of self-deception. In the actual FOL she stated that maybe it was alright that at the end they were together. Saying that Eric and Nicole didn't both long for each other is utter crap. They clearly did.

Uhm, why are the "Kiriakis men" going after the bad guys? :shrug: Not interested. Sounds like GH when Guza was writing. Sonny and Jason, the good mobsters, had to protect Port Charles from the bad mobsters.
