Truly I don’t see Kyle Lowder coming back any time soon, especially now that Eric has taken over the role of Brady Black and has done a good job with it. At one point I also felt that I could never support a non-“Kydia” Broe; however, Eric has won me over. He has been very gracious to and supportive of our fanbase; which is something that Kyle never truly was.

Even though the show went out of their way to keep Brady and Chloe apart, Eric and Nadia have done their fair share of PR for the couple with the wonderful interviews that they have done together. You can see that they would work well together.
The reason that I’m not a Phloe fan is because I don’t like them together, period! That isn’t going to change because I can’t have Kyle back. Hell, they paired Chloe with every other male on this show, I don’t see why NuBrady can’t have a shot.
The trouble, however, is that we still don't know -- do we? -- if Eric can sing.
That, to me, is the dealbreaker. Broe were magic because of so many things -- Lowder contributed mostly to those things. His voice was particularly standout.
Oh Eric can sing and he sings very well!!
I hope so.

It's always hard when you have the "originals" contrasted with the newcomers.

This is just CLASSIC, even MAGIC ( :wub: ) soap:



It's like when Travis Schuldt left Passions and there was something missing when Eric took over the role of Ethan. The "ET" magic, as fans called it, was gone. Fans only remained passionate for the couple because of the idea of ET passion. In Days' case, it will be very difficult to turn a Broe fan like me into a new-Broe fan. Lowder and Bjorlin had ridiculous, supercouple chemistyr.
Oh goodness, I love Kydia. :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:

Oh Hell no! Sorry, but Nadia is all tits and eyes and zero substance. she had flashes of good when she was losing her mind, but the majority of the time her incessant whining about Daniel was PAINFUL to watch and listen to. Chloe annoyed the crap out of me. If for whatever reason they do bring her back, ship her off (quickly) somewhere with Orangeballs.
You do know that it wasn't Nadia who was whining about Daniel.It was Chloe and the problem wasn't her acting.The problem was with the writing since she "had flashes of good when Chloe was losing her mind"In other words when she is given meaty material,she delivers.Thank you.
Um...She was "OKAY" when she snapped...not great. Nadia ia not a goos actress, sorry. She whines through her lines when they should be emotional and the rest of the time she stares blankly. This is my opinion and I'm just as entitled to it as you are to yours.

Chloe as a character has been rather pointless too.

again, my opinions. Not asking you to not think she's wonderful. I find her boring.

And another thing I don't get the venom directed at Nadia, she is a fantastic actress. She always will be one my fave Days actors!!
Yeah, I don't get that... sorry. I've never thought she was a good actress. I've still enjoyed her on the show in some respects, but she just never goes where she should go with her material IMO. And the thing is, she's been on the show since 1999... why has she not gotten better?

Nadia is a doll though, and I like her a lot personally, but yeah... as an actress, she's just not there.
A question? WHAT MARTERIAL?What did they give her to work with since her return in 2007?The HP,The PPD and Chloe losing her baby.That's it . In 4 years that's all she got and boy did she deliver with these materials...She was totally spot on.And her performances were praised everywhere.I could bring some articles to prove it if you want.

You can't make the claim that Nadia being a good actress is a factual statement. It's a subjective thing - a matter of OPINION, and I am entitled my my own. I am telling you that I don't find her to be a good actress, and I know plenty of others who feel the same way. No article is going to change someone's views - at the end of the day those articles are but the opinions of other individuals. I don't know about you, but personally I don't change my opinion just because a journalist disagrees with me. This is a DAYS board open to all view points, so don't expect to see everyone praise your favorite actors... you're going to find various beliefs.

Just because I don't like her acting, does not mean that I don't like Nadia. I think she's a very nice person - in fact, she's probably my favorite on Dirty Soap. I also think she's vocally talented. As I have also stated in my previous posts, I have enjoyed Chloe on the show - Philip and Chloe were one of my favorite couples, they had great chemistry and were fun. I'm just not impressed with Nadia's acting talents.

My favorite actors on the show are Arianne Zucker, Matthew Ashford and Chandler Massey. I've seen some people say that Ari is overrated, that Matt lost his touch, and that Chandler cries way too much in his scenes. You will not find me sending articles to these people to try and make the claim that they're absolutely wrong, and the sheer genius of these actors is a universal truth. It's not the law of gravity, there is not just one truth regarding their talents. Some people appreciate their work, some don't... that's how it goes for all actors - try to understand that.
Same here. Cheers.

I'd like to see Chloe come back as a model for Mad World. She'd be helping to kick Kate while she's down, and I think she deserves that chance after last year.

For partnering, idk. I have no faith in mardar's ability to script a believable triangle... all their current attempts (which is nearly every couple) are failing so hard. I'd like to see Daniel drop Jennifer like a dishrag and go crazy over her like what she did to him, but I think he should end up shut down, and alone. It wouldn't hurt him to be alone for a while.

In the end, without KL, I don't want a Broe. Plus, like I said, I'd like to have her working for Madison. I think Phloe should be revisited. Let them raise Parker together and be ADULTS for a while.
I think Chloe and Phil should return with Parker and be a happy family. Then I want Daniel to find out Parker is really HIS son and I want him to be devastated over the way he basically threw his kid out on the street and turned on the mother of his child so easily, without even trying to understand the circumstances surrounding her infidelity. It was all about him and what he was going through, and in the meantime, Chloe tried to kill herself and wound up being a hooker. :soapbox: The writers need to stop pimping Daniel as this perfect being and let him face his demons and his selfishness. He needs to hit rock bottom, this so-called medical situation is a start, but I want him groveling at Chloe's feet and I want her to brush him off like he did to her. Then, in time (LOTS of time) he may be worthy of her love again.

And not even then.When you're indifferent to someone 's almost death.there is no return from this point
I would agree with you in the real world but not on a Soap. Characters are molded to suit the agenda that TPTB want to promote. Brady disappointed Chloe when he was a drug addict and divorced her without a second thought. Sami shot EJ in the head. Nicole stole Sydney. Hope tried to kill Bo. Jennifer is acting like Jack is the biggest bother in the world and she is annoyed that he came back and destroyed her perfect life with Daniel. I could go on and on. The point is, when one is a fan of a couple, it's the history, the chemistry, the potential they have that has a TRUE fan coming back, no matter how appalling one or both members of that couple are at any given time. No one is a Saint in Salem.

I really hope it's old Chloe.

Chloe's last few years on the show were TERRIBLE.

You asked and now you shall receive. Eric and Nadia singing, "All I Ask Of You" on the Soap Cruise 2010
He's not bad. But notice how they clapped when Nadia started singing, lol.
They don't seem bad as a pair, but I have to say, still prefer the Lowder/Bjorlin pairing.

Note to the show's current writers:

THAT clip I posted? That was ROMANCE.
The shit your shoveling for us these days? That's SOFTCORE PORN (Bradison).

There's a big difference.

It's particularly troubling that NBC has a poll question nowt hat says whether viewers prefer passion or romance.

Um, DUH!!!!

I am all for Chloe & hopefully, she'll have Daniel in her corner so J&J can get back together!

TFP!
Well hopefully that will happen just heard the news today that Dirty Soap isn't being renewed for a season 2 so hopefully Nadia will return as Chloe since she will have some more time on her hands !!!

I never watched "Dirty Soap" but to be honest, I'm kind of glad it didn't pick up. Nadia deserves better than being on a reality show produced by E!.

True !! Most of the soap stars on that show were doing double duty.
Actually Dirty Soap was more interesting and exciting to watch Than DAYS.
Any case hope Nadia still returns to DAYS

Well there is the problem right there. I don't understand why we can't have both. If you write a good romance, then the masses will be on the edge of their seats when the passion part comes along. What the writers were really asking is whether we prefer romance or sleaze. Fools to confuse passion with porn.

Exactly! No reason at all why you can't have both, which is the way it used to be on soaps. BTW, Days, we were promised romance, not sleaze.

Trouble is, porn earns record eyeballs. MarDar REALLY think we'd rather see sleaze, based on the numbers.

It shouldn't be either/or BUT I'm pretty sure any person working on any soap would much rather be on a reality tv show than a soap. Its just the reality (no pun intended) of television these days.

I remember when danloe were first starting they were called porn couple by a lot of people. if there was ever a porn couple on days it's marlena and john and now Brady and madison. all they ever do is screw.nonstop.

Danloe actually had substance and higley had to fuck it up.

I don't think Nadia is much of an actress but she has a certain presence which most of the women on the show close to her age range lack (the only other one I'd say has that is Ari Zuker). I thought once Chloe had pulled herself together in her last weeks on the show she showed real potential.

I'd rather see Chloe/Brady again than other pairings for her (or Brady).
Yes, Nadia does have an amazing presence as Chloe. She makes you feel so much for her character and no matter how several writers have tried to ruin her, she still has that rootable quality that so many others lack.

I want her back as Chloe, ONLY her. If she does return, Daniel needs to realize how much he has lost and work for her love, and I mean WORK. It was so hard to accept that a love as strong as his for Chloe was so easily brushed aside. He treated her like dirt, no doubt about it.

I don't know if nuBrady and Chloe have romantic chemistry, so far I haven't seen him mesh well with anyone. But if TPTB want to go with a Brady/Madison/Chloe/Daniel quad, that's fine with me. All I ask is that Jennifer is kept away from the mix, she drags everyone down.
ITA, especially about Nadia having a quality that makes you root for her no matter what the writers do to try to trash Chloe. So much damage has been done to the show, and the writing is still pretty lousy, so I'm dubious that much can be done to save Days, but Chloe is a very popular character IF she is played by NB. If its a recast, I don't think there is much chance of her return doing anything to help the show.

If Chloe does return, I'd like to see her get a free pass for her insane behavior - the soap staple brain tumor would be perfect and explain Chloe's seizure while she was in her coma last summer. Plus it'd be funny if the genius Mr. Perfect surgeon didn't notice that his fiancee/wife was seriously ill. I can't stand to watch the sainted few get endless excuses for their shitty behavior when other characters are burnt at the stake.

Dannifer's got to be one of the all time worst Days couples, maybe on paper it sounded okay (except for the part where one of Days all-time iconic supercouples was trashed) but both Dan and Jen were turned into heartless selfish characters I can't stand. I adored Danloe's chemistry and really wanted them to have a romantic love story. NuBroe doesn't do it for me, I like EM and I loved classic Broe, but Danloe had that old school chemistry - it was such a waste to trash them for awkward Darly and then throwing Jen into the mix - :badmood:

If Shawn Christian remains on this show, there's no doubt that Chloe will once again be involved with Daniel. It's obvious the people in charge are in awe of SC, and Danloe was his most successful pairing. They could have a whole story about Parker's paternity, since no one bothered to have the paternity test redone, they just took the word of a confused, desperate, 90 year old, who probably didn't know what the hell she was doing when she read and switched the results. :drunk: It would be great if Phillip came back too. Maybe Jay could be talked into it if they promised him he wouldn't be involved with Pippi.
ITA, and there is a ton of dramatic potential in another Danloe s/l. They never did prove Parker's paternity (like with a medical emergency, so its still up in the air and subject to change) and generally speaking soap characters who say stupid things like "I won't regret this" ALWAYS regret whatever rash thing they proceed to do - like abandon your wife and a small baby. Plus Victor hates Chloe, Chloe hates Victor, Chloe could have PTSD from being beaten up and coerced into prostitution, Daniel still doesn't know what Kate did to Chloe etc.

Daniel's been so badly handled by TPTB, but SC is a good actor and his character on ATWT was quite likeable. I was never a fan of the sister-triangle with Rosanna/Mike/Carly, but the exit s/l with Mike & Pillar was very romantic. Daniel has been so inconsistent, and his motives so ill-explained, I lost sympathy for him not because he broke up with Chloe but because of how his arrogant attitude put a baby in danger. Chloe was his wife after all, and she started showing signs of PPD during the marriage, so this so wonderful doctor not noticing....but that was the whole point I think, Daniel the "I'm such a great observer" doctor NOT noticing something was wrong and failing the person he claimed to love most in the world. Then he couldn't deal with the consequences of his actions and acted like nothing had happened. Its his identitiy - I save lives, I can't have put anyone in danger, its impossible, so he ignores reality and how his behavior hurt Chloe.

If this were the real world, I'd say no way, hell no, never to any revisit for Danloe, because Daniel was horrible to Chloe during their engagement. But its fiction, and they were writing him as taking Chloe for granted to setup Darly, and then moved him onto Jen really fast to save money & not have to hire an actor for Jen's latest stop-gap pairing. So I could forgive the shitty way he acted if Daniel suffers over how he neglected Chloe and Parker. I don't give a flying fig about Melanie's marriage to Philip and couldn't care less that her hubby cheated on her after catching her with her tongue down Nathan's throat.
