Don't get up. So how are you? What happened, eh? Let me guess, Stefano told you that you could fly,and you jumped off a building. HeHe It's funny right, no I'm sorry Bad EJ, I should'nt be that cruel!

I rather watch Abe and Lexi argue about politcs than to read more about Ali. :shame: I don`t see why she won`t just quit the show, preferably I want Sami dead. The irony is that she hosts the Biggest Loser, what a fitting title for the host. Edited by JamesScott_19, Aug 18 2011, 12:00 PM.

But don't we all have people in our past that no matter how much we've changed, grown, learned you can't help but fall into those old dynamics? Even if you know better? Gonna be interesting... I was thinking that the whole "old dynamics" would be the Austin connection and can see Madison knowing Austin from the business world. Madison and Sami can be friends now, but maybe Sami gets back to obsessing about Austin, which would both cause a rift in marriage and in her workplace. It also would be a different twist on the Carrie/Sami relationship- instead of always being rivals all the time and it being the same story that's we've seen in the 90s and 00s. (That's also why I put a ? at the end of the Austin statement.

AS is not the best speaking off the cuff. And the most beloved television icon? Really? And I am not going to comment anymore on her insistence that her family is the top priority. In addition to Days and TBL, let's throw in another reality show of the Hollywood Mom's Club even after she just says that her schedule is already packed. I think Dena Higley writes Sweeney's interviews because they really don't make any sense. But thanks for posting! :) Always a good laugh!

For now. Why do you think it will be easy for their relationship to turn explosive? A.S.: You�ll have to tune in to find out!

I had trouble getting past the title: Allison Sweeney, the hardest working woman on television! :lol: And I thought this was funny too: "Alison Sweeney is certainly giving Ryan Seacrest a run for his money when it comes to having the most jobs in Hollywood." Personally, I think she should focus on her acting skills and put more effort into her "Day" job instead of spreading herself so thin. I feel like she is just 'phoning it in' on Days. I was more impressed with AS/Sami when I started watching the show. For the past few years I've gradually developed a hatred for the character, and I know part of it is the writing, but it is partly due to the way AS interprets the writing and her acting choices. To me it doesn't look like she is putting much effort into it. But that's just this viewer's opinion...I'm sure some would disagree.

I know Jaime had scenes with Lucas.

No matter what you think, I DO love you. Posts: 2,210 Group: Elite Member Member #9,529 Joined: June 7, 2011 Favorite Current Daytime Soap Opera OneLifeToLive Favorite Soap Opera of All Time DaysOfOurLives	SB mentioned in one of her interviews that her character and Sami are childhood friends. So I'm guessing back in the teen years when Sami was a real bitch. So no matter how she's changed, Madison probably doesn't buy it and will be keeping an eye on her while she works at Mad World Cosmetics (is that the name of her company?)
