And there are a lot of people who started watching again because of Bo and Carly. They were on every day last week and guess what....the ratings went up. Can't prove they are the cause anymore than anyone can prove that if Bo and Hope are split up the ratings will dive. Bo has fans, Hope has fans, Carly has fans. Bo and Hope have fans. Bo and Carly have fans. A good story will drive ratings and keep viewers. The same old, same old "people will quit and the ratings will crash" and it will hurt DAYS if a break up happens to J/M, J/J, S/K, S/B was said..........or if they leave the show will crash. Guess what, it did not happen. Threatening the show is the best way to give Peter and Kristian the same treatment that was given DH/DDH, MA/MR, MBE/SN. I truly believe writers and producers are sick and tired of not being allowed to write outside the supercouple box. The best thing Peter's fans and Kristian's fans can do for them is cheer for them to get good stories, frontburner stuff. IMO, their fans should put them before insisting a fictional couple not be touched. |

No one's suggesting that at all, Sam. I'm certainly not going to e-mail NBC Burbank and voice my criticism with this story. Hell, this is history. Give me a story that utilizes the soap's rich history and I'll sit back and enjoy it. That's why I loved today's show with Maggie talking to Mia and referencing Janice Barnes. Yes, I'm a Bo/Hope fan, but I'll certainly sit back and enjoy the story as long as it is well written. They haven't had that good, meaty story in quite some time. Zack's death started out as such until Reilly disintegrated it into an excuse for Hope to have an affair. Earlier I referenced Josh/Reva on Guiding Light... GL still might have been canceled, but had the writers reunited Josh and Reva a little earlier the ratings might have gone up by a few tenths of a point. Instead, Josh and Reva were kept apart until it was too late. This story is going to cause some friction between the fans. It's no different than the Lumi, Safe and Ejami fans going at it. You're going to get this because some fans like some couples and never the twain shall meet. Edited by sungrey, Dec 18 2009, 12:37 AM.

Im ok with the Bo/Hope/Carly angst and triangle if its written well.. I just never cared for Bo/Carly as a couple.. But she is good for creating Drama. And I know I dont wat any Hope /Justin stuff ... They do nothing for me. Edited by Taelyn, Dec 21 2009, 01:49 PM.

I don't think Bo and Hope will be apart for very long. I think Ciara will play a part in getting her parents back together. Alot of people seem to be forgetting their is a child in the midst of all of this. I wonder if Victor will use Ciara to get Bo and Hope back together and keep Bo and Carly apart. If Ciara wasn't in the picture then I could see them dragging this sl out till we are all bored and tired of it but I think with Ciara in the mix we may see Bo and Hope back together alot sooner. The show has yet to be renewed as far as anyone knows so I doubt they would be planning for this story to drag on for too long. I don't think they plan how long a story goes for. So no one can say this sl will last 6 months let alone a year. The writers might decide to take it in another direction who knows. As for Justin and Hope. I agree with the previous poster. I don't want any stuff to happen with them either. They don't do anything for me. They are dull and boring. Hope would be better paired with Dan I think. Justin needs to go back to Dubai and be with Adrianne. They can't write for Justin. He's becoming a gossiper like Maggie. I don't like how they have reduced him to this. I think they have scraped the bottom of the barrell with Justin. It might be time for them to write Justin out before they do any more damage to this character. |

No thanks, Justin needs to stay in Salem. I agree that he needs more to do then play interference with Bo/Hope/Carly. I do like his friendship with Hope and I want to see more. I do see something between them, but I much prefer Justin/Carly. i want them to be given a chance. Bo/Hope need to get their act together and work on their marriage. But Justin needs to stay in Salem there is a lot that can be done with him. There are other characters that need to go way before him. dubai can wait for Justin. Justin needs to have fun in Salem for awhile. I hope that Justin/Carly can get their acts together and have some fun together. :) Justin stays!! |

Hope is the only one acting like a spoiled, immature child. Bo has been nothing but patient with her. Hope is mad at Bo for bringing their child home safely. She threw a fit and moved out of the house to get attention. Bo has asked her numerous times to come home. She pops in whenever she wants invited or not just to cause trouble. Instead of focusing on fixing what's wrong in her marriage; she is focusing on Carly. Carly on the other hand has always been mature and respectful of Bo. She treats him like a man and a partner. She truly loves him as an adult should. Bo is beginning to see the differences between the love he has for Hope and the love he has for Carly. I hope in the end Hope learns to treat him better or he choses Carly who will treat him the way he deserves to be treated. Hope needs to be nocked down a peg or two. She needs to learn that the world does not revolve around her and her fluctuating hormones. Bo did not kill Zack and he did not kidnap Ciara. Get over it Hope or live your life without Bo. |

That is the one thing I seriously want them to address in this story -- Hope's general shrewish behavior and her selfishness. Since the show's on an upswing recognizing its history and Doug and Julie are sticking around, have them address what went wrong in their marriage(s) with Hope and with Bo. The story will ring so much better if you involve them in it. |

I really don't like what they are doing to Bo and Hope mainly because of Ciara. I really cannot blame Hope in a way, because, look at Bo's track record. She said she wanted to come home several weeks ago, he said no. she and Ciara were over to decorate the tree she was about ready to come home then and Carly came in. Bo has had Billie in his life. Look at all the promises he made and broke then. Zack's death again he lied. I can see where now she could feel insecure and need a little comforting. I am not saying she has not been a shrew , she did move out, but when she tried to reconnect, Bo let other things come between them. How can he say, there is nothing going on when obviously for one of them at least , something is going on. Hope is not dumb. |

:hail: :hail: I so so agree. Bo does not deserve this. Never has. Bo has never maliciously kept secrets from Hope but he learned early in their young relationship that Hope overreacts, or acts impulsively. He tries to keep her safe. Even with the info about Chelsea hitting Zach, he made it clear.......he feared telling her for what it would do to her. He never meant to keep it a permanent secret. Now that may have been a bad choice, but the man was in as much pain and shock as Hope. Hope has always assumed the worst in Bo. I am sick of it. I loved Carly telling him he was a good, trustworthy man. Maybe Hope should try that sometime. |

Hope said she wanted to come ONCE, after she had left Bo to hang out at D/J, after she had moved to Kiriakis land. Every time Bo asked to come home, Hope said NO....NO, NO. ONLY when she found out about Carly did she want to come home, and even she admitted to Bo it was not totally about being with him but about keeping an eye out for Carly. In other words, when it was just Bo, NO, she did not want to be there. How about just telling the man yet again, she is not interested in him but in making sure she gets her way. Hope was dead when he fell in love with Carly, with Billie. Maybe if Hope had not lied to Bo about following him she would not have "died." But she did and Bo had every right to fall in love. Bo's track record is a heck of a lot better than Hope's ever was. Bo cannot trust Hope because when she does find out about stuff, she insists in putting her nose where it does not belong and has created a lot of havoc. Bo ONLY lies to Hope about Chelsea hitting Zach because he was not sure she could handle it. And everyone seems to forget, Bo lost Zach too. He was in as much pain as Hope, as much shock, plus he had to deal with what his daughter did. Hope is self centered and selfish and always has been, Bo always gives in to her demands and always takes every bit of blame she throws in his face. Bo deserves better. |

i dont know why hope has to insist on knowing a secret that is not anything to do with her bo admitted it had nothing to do with it she should just drop it or at least pretend she has she keeps blaming bo for the marriage apart did she forget she is the one who left and then when she came back again..SHE...IS is the one who left AGAIN..but i think the writers are making her this way to make us angry at her in case a bo/carly pairing is possible..personally i love bope..but what more can we do with them unless we turn hope back into gina or bo into that mime thing he used to be theres not much stories ..then we would be mad bo and hope got no air time.. personally i think days should do some disaster..snow storm, hurricane, tornado earthquake something...and have bo and hope save eachother or something...days has never done a natural disaster that i can remember |

I am looking for an opinion. Do any of you think with the death of Mickey Bo and Hope will get any closer or only further and further away? It will be interesting to see what lies ahead. Maybe this will shake Hope up and she will realiize how stupid she is being. If she is really afraid of losing Bo maybe she should get her act striaight and they should start talking. |

Wow! Lots of Hope bashing going on! :wtf: Look people need to just watch this story and let it play out already! How about we just be happy for the vets being in a frontbunner storyline! :dance: Can't say it enough that this is a Bo and Hope storyline! This is a tearing down to build it back up story! Tomlin and Higley are attempting to do an old school soap classic story! When Hope first returned in 1995, they didn't tell the story they should have told. Now after all these years, they are going to do just that! :cheer: It's long over due! There will be plenty uncomfortable and frustrating episodes ahead. And we will have plenty of debates regarding these things to come as well! Let's just hope that we all are in agreement that Peter, Kristian, Wally, and Crystal will kick butt during all the ups and downs of this storyline! JMO :cheers: |

Bo and Hope need their children for the Holidays ? Where is Shawn-D? His parents need him! Chelsea could resonate with her dad as well. |

Because it seems recycled? Hope gets mad....Bo grovels....Hope misreads relationship between Bo and past flame.......Hope will probably go jump bones of someone else who ends up the bad guy.........Hope and Bo make up............Front burner storyline at any expense? |

Well, Hope's not going to sleep with someone else. However, I totally agree with you that this is recylced stuff with a few changes! :shame: Unfortunately, we are stuck with some lazy writers who really need to start reading some fanfics if they can't come up with anything more than the same old same old! However, the fact is this is the story we are stuck with for now. And both the Bope and the Barly fans are not going to be happy at some point during this story. For now, it's the Bope fans. However, when the story takes it's turn...well you can guess. Let's us all agree that Peter, Kristian and Crystal will do a great job playing out this once again recycled storyline! :applause: |

I wish she would, and be the first party to do so. And not feel guilty. For me, that would breathe some life into her character, LoL. |

Bope falling in love was my introduction to Days, so I've always had a soft spot for them and always rooted for them to be together. Bo pulling up on his motorbike, was just classic Days, lol! So I couldn't imagine that I'd be open to either of them being with anyone one else, instead of with each other. Argh......not any more tho! I'm shocked to say that these writers have totally turned me off Hope and ICAM with all the posts about her whiny, selfishnesss, etc. There just seems to be no respect there. If this was the writer's intention, I give them top marks for the fall of Hope & I'm wishing that Bo continues to call her out on her princess behaviour & not grovel at her feet for forgiveness. I like Carly and, more surprisingly, I like Bo & Carly together. I think their caring friendship is refreshing and I see a maturity there and a connection, outside of romance. Given that Bope is pretty much the last supercouple standing, I can't see the writers giving Barly a serious chance at a second go round, I think we're going to get Dr Dan as the love interest instead. But at this stage, I'd surprised to say I'd be happy to see the writers continue with Barly and give them a go. Edited by UKDaysFan, Dec 20 2009, 06:16 PM.
