I can (grudgingly) buy that Carly has renewed feelings for Bo. OK. What I can't swallow is that Bo returns those feelings, regardless of his situation with Hope. I do look forward to the scenes between Bo and Hope, though.

And I too am upset that we won't be seeing the Horton house for Christmas this year.
Why? Bo loved Carly deeply. Hope has been treating Bo like a piece of trash for a long while now. She never lets him forget his flaws. She blames him for everything and always assumes the worst. This is not new. Hope has been doing this to Bo since the return from Aremid.

So here's a man who is being blamed by everyone for Hope's decision to move out. Here's a man who has been beaten down and suddenly here is a woman who he loved deeply, who loved him and is now soothing his ego. I don't see it as a stretch at all.
What does that have to do with Bo having feelings for Carly again? Because if this is about Hope, then Bo/Carly is nothing more than a rebound for Bo. And sure, Bo loved Carly...sixteen years ago.
Love doesn't die unless you do something to make it die and sometimes even if that person does something you still love them. I don't care if it's 50 years. It doesn't go away. You can move on but it's still there.

Bo did not break up with Carly and Carly only went with Lawrence because of Nicky. The show messed up making her motives clear at that time but that was the reason. The show's been building up to this and they haven't forced it but I do think they expect some people to be against it.

Thank you. I agree, love does not have to have a time limit, nor does the intensity depend on the amount of time. I think Bo and Carly had a deeply passionate, more mature love.
I think if Peter had not left, things may have been quite different. But we will never know.

However, it would be great if the show addressed why Carly chose to leave with Lawrence. Even MS and CC found it strange and not at all making sense. I think the show could easily delve into the shock Carly was still in (being buried alive is known to be one of the greatest of all human fears universally). So shock, post traumatic shock, all would make sense. As well, wanting to be with the child that had been stolen from her all those years, makes sense as to why she would do it. That should even make sense to Hope, if only she bothers to use her so called detective skills to learn about Carly instead of asking Vic and Viv.

I'm excited for Bo and Carly, but I'm sort of disappointed about Christmas Eve being held at Bo and Hope's house. For one thing, I miss the Horton house and I look forward to seeing it every Christmas. For another, what family asks a couple, who are having marital problems, to host Christmas at their house? You would think Maggie and Julie would insist on Bo and Hope not doing anything to help out with Christmas this year, leaving it completely up to them, so that the Bradys can repair their marriage.
I agree although it sounds like the Horton's are trying to reunite them and that having the party at their house is part of the plan. They may figure that having it at Alice's could allow for Bo not to show up or something so by having it at his house, he kind of has to be there to help. I do agree that having it at Bope's is wrong though. Maybe if I felt this was just a one year occurrence like Aremid (although I didn't even like that), I would feel better about it. However, I feel this may be the end of the Horton house. It could still be a great Christmas celebration but it will feel very different.

I agree. I wish they would address it too. That whole exit arc was botched big time.

Yes. They have dumbed Hope down. All she does all day is moan and bitch. Her detective skills are bad in this sl at the moment. Why are they writing Hope like this? She has always been a good detective up till now. I don't like the way they are writing her at the moment.

I too didn't like the way they wrote Carly out. It was stupid. I remember watching it and wondering why they had her leave like this.

She is the one that right when things get a bit rocky, packs up the kid and hightails it out!
I just don't understand Hope. She wants to throw her tantrums and leave Bo high and dry for the stupidest reasons, but at the same time she expects him to put his own life on hold and kiss her ass until she finally decides to grow up and go back home. You can't have your cake and eat it too, bitch!
ROTFL, sounds to me like Bo is the one who wants to have his cake and eat it too - as per the usual.

He almost kisses Carly and then five minutes later he wants to hug and kiss Hope.

Sorry, but if Bo wants to be with Carly, he should at least have the DECENCY to divorce his wife first. If someone needs to grow up here, it's Bo. So what if Hope moved out? That doesn't give him the right to cheat on his wife.

I don't know about that one. Besides why would they promote Bo and Hope as a couple on 30 Rock if they were going to keep them apart? Doesn't make sense.
I don't know - they promoted Phloe as a couple on 30 Rock, and had them do a pretend love scene for E! News Weekend...and now Chloe's with the pervy man-whore groper, and Philip's marrying a child. I don't know that the promoting of a couple necessarily means anything to Days anymore.

Oh please. I'm sure Bo has feelings for Carly, but he's never once said that he wants to be with her or shoved his tongue down her throat. He doesn't seem any closer to her right now than Hope seems with Justin. If Hope can hug all over Justin and pour her heart out to him 24/7, why can't Bo do the same with Carly? He is, after all, only human.

Frankly, I think the debate over who is in the wrong between Bo and Hope is stupid. They're both acting like idiots.

i disagree, this is a soap opera..not real life, we want the drama, the things we wouldnt do in real life isnt that why we all watch soaps to break from reality...they are doing this for the vivian/carly story along with all the other vets that will be involved which is what we asked for in the first place..it may seem to soon to us, but actually melanie and phillip were in a relationship before and have been hinting at this tension for a while...they dont actually marry til sometime in february..and we all know the spoilers so we are not as shocked..but the viewers who dont read spoiliers this may have more effect on them..i dont know hope i made a point...

I agree but you still have to do right by the characters. I'm all for anything as long as it works for the characters and tells a good story. I just think you have to be careful not to make people suspend disbelief too much. Yes, it's a soap but you can't go nuts but I do agree with you completely. It's just a delicate balance and I do think outside of these boards you will find that most people could care less about many of the things we do. They only watch for entertainment. For them, it may not matter how long it takes for someone to wed or who does what. Is that the right mentality for TPTB to cater to? No but I do think people are like that.

Peter says in the article that Bo and Carly ALMOST kiss before Hope shows up. This after she tells him she is falling in love with him. And then Bo wants to kiss Hope. He sounds like a dog in heat.

Hope and Justin may hug, but neither are telling the other they are falling in love and then almost kissing.

I for one am loving Bo and Carly....I really hope Days explores this wonderful couple and gives Bo and Carly fans there chance to see them together again...whether it be for a while or for the short term. I want to see them explore this. If GL can break up Josh and Reva and Y&R can break up Victor and Nikki...why can't Days break up Bo and Hope.

I agree with the poster that said if Peter Reckell had stayed all those years ago things would have been so different...there would have been no Billie...it would have been Carly/Bo/Hope....Days own version of B&B's Brooke/Ridge/Taylor triangle or Y&R's Ashley/Victor/Nikki.

I've loved DAYS since the Day Carly returned (I hadn't followed regularly in years). Peter Reckell's comes alive in his scenes with Crystal and Crystal is finally comfortable as Carly. I'll also say that I think Kristian Alfonso is doing great acting too...I can't wait to see the Day (I hope) that Bo and Carly are an official couple has Hope has to deal with this. I want to see Alfonso and Chappell have a huge confrontation scene where they both take the gloves off and go at it.

If any GL fans are Days fan, Chappell and Kim Zimmer were awesome rivals as Olivia and Reva...I think Alfonso and Chappell could have that same explosive rivalry if Days plays it right.

Great Job Days. Great Triangle....which is about 16 years overdue.

I am so tired of this Peter Reckell comes alive in his scenes with Crystal nonsense.

If you "hadn't followed regularly in years," what are you basing this on??!

Peter is and always has been alive and well in his scenes with every actor he works with. In fact, I think he looks the most bored with Crystal than anyone I've EVER seen him work with. And this is based on actually having watched the show for the past 15 years LOL :wave:

You don't have to be so rude...While I haven't followed Days in years I have watched from time to time...You know, I think you're simply upset that there are many fans out there who like Bo and Carly together and this has never been an issue because Billie was never a believeable threat to Bo and Hope's love story, but Carly is. It's not Bope mania anymore...Barly fans are giving them a run for their money and that's called great storytelling. This is a writer's dream to have the audience torn....they're doing a great job.

And for what it's worth...I think Peter Reckell looks bored to tears in his scenes with Alfonso. We agree to disagree and that's what's wonderful about these forums...

It's great that you're a fan of Bope...and I'm a fan of Barly...let's just not be rude about it.

Brooke/Ridge/Taylor triangle? Didn't SOD say that was the worst triangle of 2009 in last weeks SOD or the week before's issue?

I have to agree with SOD on that one. I watched that and it was awful! It came across as the same old boring triangle and didn't work. The show lost alot in the ratings because of it and they haven't really recovered much from it. I think the writing was bad for that triangle. Again it comes down to the writing. So far I don't really like this triangle/quadrangle but will see where it goes. I do believe Bo and Hope will get back together. It's just a matter of when and how.

I love how Bo's definition of not taking Hope's shit is by sleeping with another woman. That's rich.

Let's just hope that Bo can "man up" and actually end his marriage before dropping trow. Instead of trying to screw his ex (literally) and string his wife along.

Oh, how I can't wait to see this play out!!!
