Pearly, does your avatar show Sami punching Lucas? If so, is that recent? If it is... OMG!

I'm so far behind on DAYS and have no time to catch up. I've missed at least 90% of the episodes in the past two months.

DAYS is delivering for me again. I have actually been watching it day of/a day late as opposed to like weeks later. :lol:

Same here! I quit taping when Jawn came back and mostly just paid attention via spoilers and clips on the boards but finally I'm tuning in again on a regular basis... mostly because of improvements I feel like were made to Sami so that I can root for her again without question.

(ok I confess some of this is cribbed from a post I made at Twop so bare with me)

Maybe my time removed from the show skewed things so I give everything more of a benefit of the doubt, but this Sami that exists right now compared to that sniveling Carrie clone with the martyr complex we got stuck with under Hogan is just like a revelation to me.

Yes, Sami is kind of crazy and is frustrating and still does a lot of things that don't advance the EJami love story. But I can deal with that because I don't have to watch the show as an EJami shipper with a chip on my shoulder (the way I did under Hogan at times) because she entertains me and her banter with EJ entertains me the way it did before everything got so twisted. I like that there is a constant push-pull with Sami not knowing what she wants or having the dilemma of wanting everything and trying to have it all even when it forces her to contradict herself. I like that she is impulsive and jealous. I like that I don't know yet whether Sami really twuly wuvs EJ or she's just horny/lonely/wants to deny Nicole that nice piece of ass. But most of all I love that she is SELFISH rather than the weepy heroine pod-Sami that got Hogan fired and ruined the show last summer. At her core, I've always envisioned Sami as a Scarlett O'Hara selfish and shrewd bad sheep-type and I feel like that is how they are writing her now again.

That's why I'm not stressing about this trip back to the EJamicas triangle, because FINALLY I feel like things are on fair footing now that the event that never should have happened is behind so I can just lay back and enjoy the story and not worry so much about some character pimping someone else no matter who Sami winds up with. (I'm sure some Lucas fans balk at this thinking everyone is pimping EJ, of course I always felt like EJ got ruined the night of the rape to pimp Lumi so I guess it's all in perspective) But whether Sami and EJ wind up together *OR* Sami goes back to Lucas and EJ finally gets fed up and moves on (preferably in a big "Frankly, Sami, I don't give a damn" scene) I can deal.

Obviously I am being carelessly and foolishly optimistic for the ensuing nightmare I'm sure we'll get in this arena, but like I said I just got back from a break so I have a lot of cynicism recharging to do. ;)

OMFG!

can i mary this post? please!!!!!!!!!!

I watched today for the first time in a long time. I don't want to say too much because the episode I watched was tomorrow's US episode.

I was actually kinda bored by it. The only intriguing part was watching Kayla's emotions towards her newborn.

Seeing Lucas back and the interactions between Sami and Lucas weren't as awesome as I expected.

Say hello to the weepy, apologetic, needy, Sami worshipping at the feet of the yelling, sanctimonious, deadbeat dad. Ugh, what a bore.

I was enjoying the show so much...til now.

The Victor/Philip scenes last Friday were amazing! I can't remember the last time I enjoyed any scenes that much. I LOVED IT! The music, the way they were holding their drinks, EVERYTHING was perfect! John and Jay did an amazing job. Please TPTB give us more scenes like this :hail:
