I don't care if it's Nicole or Chloe, but this show needs to stick one of them with Brady and leave it at that. I am tired of the revolving door of women in his life. He is one of those that has chemistry with anyone.
I think they are trying to make it not so obvious with Paul and Sonny but it kind of is. I guess, maybe, I don't know. Lol
And JJ is hazy? Is that because he gets shot? Or was he drugged on his trip to see about his sister. See...now that ONE statement from CM makes me interested in the story. That was all that was needed!
Writers, Just give Nicole a baby and please don't destroy the Abigail character completely.
I think it has more to do with the fact that the actresses keep leaving, I loved him with Sarah J. Brown.. I forgot the name of her character but I did like them together but she left as did Lindsay Hartley, Eileen Davidson, Molly Burnett... and the list keeps going. I do hope it's Chloe!! I've been wanting for a long time for them to give Eric and Nadia a chance, cause I've always felt like they had great chemistry. I enjoy him with Ari too but it is Nadia's turn!! I have always loved SJB (and I actually think Brady and Madison had potential) but just like my other faves Melissa Archer and KDP, Dool didn't do them any favors.

If it's Chloe that makes me happy. I want to like Brady again. He's always been one of my favorites. I didn't like hating him (when he was with Mel and Theresa).

I have wanted NB & EM's version of Broe to happen for years! Nicole should be paired with Eric and Brady and Chloe should get back together.

WTF we usually talk about destroying the characters in stories or pimp another characters, well the 90th Kristen pimp Marlena and John, in my opinion. Maybe Lysie is right, in wanting to move this to the classic tread.
I totally disagree with this comment about pimping J&M! DAYS did not need Kristen to do so. Most of the audience wanted J&M, especially after the tale of the 2 Romans, the affair and the birth of their love child, Belle. Kristen was just an interloper in their story. There was no real need for her back then and frankly she was boring up until...her gradual transformation from a good girl to a dark, manipulative and clever schemer. THAT's what made 90's Kristen so much more interesting! It made her character unforgettable for years to come...
Her return(s) under TomSell left a lot to be desired! Where was she, all those years? Why was she still carrying a grudge against J&M? But the drugging and raping of Eric & her stealing an embryo, totally destroyed the character and made her cartoonish, IMO! It makes me sad, because I love Eileen and I think she plays a great villainess. But I love my villains on soaps to be smart, clever in anticipating their next move, just like a game of chess. That's the way she was in the 90's, she was always a step ahead of Marlena and it drove me nuts, but I loved it! Do I want Kristen back? Absolutely! But definitely NOT with Dena Higley or Gary Tomlin or Chris Whitesell as Head Writers.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
There's a difference in a rooting couple and pimping. They would have prevailed whether she went bad or not. That was set up long before she went psycho. If she hadn't gone bad, she would be a blip on Days' radar. Rooting couples can be pimped, but I don't think she pimped them. She didn't need to. If anything, she did the opposite.
I thought Kristen was an interesting character in itself and I think she had coped very well if they had allowed her to say fuck you to John and moved on to something else. So if John and Marlena did not need a third party in their story why was Kristen in this story ??? I stand by it was pimping of John and Marlena,. And I was glad that Kristen was John who ?? when Tomsell wrote for her, I mean, she was busy with his son instead. lol ;) Kristen would have been written out as soon as she moved on because she was so damn boring. John and Marlena provided her with story.

I understood but I disagree with it. :) Sure John and Marlena were endgame and yada yada, but that does not mean I liked that Kristen went psycho I mean a young, beautiful woman went crazy for John ??? Nah not credible in my book. And I do not like stories where women become a mess for a man. I like stories with strong women who go their own way. This is cracking me up. You realize, Drake won a Soap Digest hottest male actor award the year he was paired with ED?

I don't really get why a six year age difference is such a big deal though. Especially since the other man she was paired with was older and the men she was most known with on Y&R were older I believe. She wasn't an ingenue. I also don't get why being a mess over John 20 years ago is worse than being a mess of Brady 3 years ago. :shrug:

I'm like 2 weeks behind or so, and i'm not sure how Theresa's leaving (dead I'm guessing?) but I'd be happy with Brady/Nicole or Brady/Chloe. I like them both though and he doesn't have a good track record, so for their sakes it would be best if he were alone. Just no new random women. At least with Chloe or Nicole they already have a real relationship built-in with years of backstory so it doesn't feel eye-rollingly forced.
That said, I'd be all for another Brady-Kristen reboot. I know, even he can't possibly be that stupid, but if he wants someone who can outlive being with him, she's literally his only hope.
Also if Chloe's kid is Daniel's I will freak the eff out bad. I'd literally rather the father be anyone else from John to Joey.

I mean, sure if you want to forget that the writers had Marlena purposely be an interloper in the relationship during and after the whole John killing Tony/Andre trial and only briefly stopped when Kristen's pregnancy was revealed to be high-risk, then yea Marlena did everything she could to help Kristen & John stay together. :eyeroll:I didn't even like John/Kristen together, he was a total creeper, but I hated the whole destruction of Kristen and Marlena's semi-friendship. They were oddly sweet together.
How was she an interloper? :shrug:
wow, really? :lol: I thought that was a legit question, but ok you don't need to answer.

And she got to chance to....on several occasions in 2014. The Kristen of the 90s would have been begging for his scraps. Which is why I preferred the Tomsell version over the whiny version from JER. :)
But in the end she did the same kind of thing then too. She didn't just leave town or move on like a normal person. She was just as whiny...blaming Marlena for everything, then stealing a fetus. It's always Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!! Marlena, Marlena, Marlena!! ;)

Re:John. Apparently he isn't very insightful where his feelings are concerned. Before Kristen he was living with Rebecca. Fortunately, Rebecca was wise enough to leave him after she noticed he cared more about Kristen than her. Somehow John wasn't able to recognize that too. It's a pattern lol. I think he had a problem with moving on after the affair. He had to walk away and try to find a way to live life without Marlena. Reilly always played it that he felt guilt about his part in breaking up her family so I think he buried his feelings for her very deeply. He wasn't going to ever do anything to hurt her again. That let Reilly move him on with Kristen, who he fell in love with very hard. It wasn't until Aremid that he finally saw that Kristen wasn't the woman he thought she was. She believed he could kill Tony. That opened up that door to Marlena that he'd closed.
Btw, he never lived with Rebecca. Rebecca also knew he was still in love with Marlena. She was a smart woman, and could see right through John, and left. Kristen wasn't smart like Rebecca. But if she had been, she most likely would be written out like Rebecca was.
