Seriously. John hasn't done anything yet. Maybe Bo and Marlena are going to hook up in Jope's absence. Or no one will hook up and this story is going in a completely different direction.
I have one direction, and one only that I'd like for it to go in... I want this to be the story that peels away layers that shows Stefano being the mastermind behind many different things. Mainly:

- Roman 2.0 is an imposter, and a ticking time bomb. He's going to kill certain people for different reasons, and they don't know who or why.

- Princess Gina and Jawn Bwack was a set-up, Stefano created everything. What we saw on the Sub was the memories Stefano wanted them to have. In reality they were drugged and in a chair (thus, Hope and Stefano also never did the nasty).

I want Stefano to be the mastermind being setting up this decade long plan that led to this moment, which is set up to make the Bradys destroy themselves (Roman kills them, and John/Hope believe they are married). Except, Stefano underestimates love, Marlena goes off to save John and Hope, while Bo stays in Salem to work on getting Roman to reveal his targets (whichever, I'm more willing to compromise on this).

John kills the Imposter in the end.

There's nothing more disgusting in a man than developing feelings for someone other than your soulmate. But hey, if they want to make John an unlikeable pig to 75% of the viewing audience out there, who am I to stand in their way?
Ahem. Pretty sure that's how John & Marlena became the supercouple they are today.

Back in the day there were many Roman/Marlena fans. I was one, but was pulled to the other side because of the awesome storytelling during the affair.

That was before John & Marlena's make out sessions made me want to stab my eyes out with a steak knife.
I don't think I can "LIKE" that post enough for the LIKE that it deserves. If I weren't already married to several posts on different boards, I'd propose to it.
Why don't you just have an illicit affair with it and then blame it on the chip Stefano implanted in your brain??
Excellent idea. Or I'll just blame it on my overwhelming grief from my notdead nonchild.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deepthey shoul be cuddlin up together in front of the fireplace reminiscing their best days and talk bout when they first fall in love!!!
i so hate this shit!!!


what..u would rather see them hoppin in bed with someone else every new year...just to keep things interesting???more like pukeshit!!!
there are tons of way to keep jarlena and bope "alive"without addin the cheatin factor....JMO
Who said they are cheating...that is major jumping the gun. Right now it is just Hope/John going to Alamania..there is NOTHING there implying they are going to cheat on Bo & Marlena.

Yes the speculation of them cheating is jumping the gun but honestly I'd much rather watch J&M in throwaway happy scenes than in a story that could further ruin their characters or tarnish them in any way. I don't have much trust in MarDar, they haven't given me anything to really enjoy (besides those throwaway happy J&M scenes, one of which we know for sure hit the editing room floor). Storywise, they're weak...beyond weak. They miss beats, they drag things out, it's all talk no action, and when they have action it's random out of the blue wtfuckery.

Is there anyone written right now that I like...uhm, nope. I did like the solid writing they had for J&M as a couple, but now they're going to pulling them apart to send John/Hope away for weeks to try to get this marriage annulled leaving Bo home to possibly deal with Billie's return, and Marlena to council the rest of Salem. Do I want a J&M story, of course...one where J&M work together, not one where John/Hope are gallivanting off in Alamania trying to get a divorce from a bogus marriage that could not have been possible to begin with and Bo/Marlena back in Salem "worrying" about them. It's just bullshit writing.

Why couldn't there be a "conflict" created where both JnM and Bope work together to solve? Why split up the pairings if you're not wanting to force some bullshit conflict on the couples? If they wanted a story involving the Fab4, why not have them work together to try to prove EJ/Stefano's involvement in John's setup? I still think it's completely out of character for John to not want to prove what the DeMira's did to him. Bullshit writing all around.
Exactly. I'd be more positive if this was a story where Bo and Hope went looking for answers, John and Marlena went looking for answers... and they all ended up in the same place.

IDK why you're letting your commitments come in between you and a good thing.
Yea, just practice your ugly cry for after you get caught, then go for it.

If this actually was going to lead to an adventure, I'd be all for it even if it didn't make much sense. I always thought it was a mistake for them to make Zach Bo's instead of John's so I'd welcome a jope child provided the kid was still a kid and not a full grown adult. I don't like the idea of EJ being jope's because that removes his connection to Kristen.

While my preference would be for John to be the one jealous of...whatever, I have to say I don't think I could handle Marlena/Bo. That might be the one that would kill me. And yet, I'd still be confident that J&M and Bope will end up with the right people, lol.
That's because it's all a little too incest-like. John and Hope are like siblings, Bo and Marlena have considered themselves in-laws ... forever.

That said... jealous!John watching Marlena fake a crush on some Alamanian prince would be DEVINE!

OMG, you're a genius. This whole thing is just a set-up for the real shocker. All those longing looks and occassionally awkward hugs will finally make sense.

What was the point in Drake and Deidre doing the Superbowl promo or whatever they did and they are going to have John and Hope together onscreen? Won't people feel deceived if they see the promo and decide to tune in to see them only to find John with Hope?
It's not a good look for Days.
This whole sl is a joke!

You know I am not even pissed at the fact that they are un-marrying John/Marlena and Bo/Hope for the umpteenth time... even though it's stupid! It's the timeline for this sucktastic shitfest that irritates me! I mean COME ON! The only way it could be Hope and John would be the five minutes they were together in 1999.

Otherwise it would have to be John and the Actual Princess Gina. There was a actual Princess Gina that John was with right? Maybe I am just block this shit out or not remembering it correctly lol.

It wouldn't surprise me. The show has increasingly become "Gays of Our Lives." The WilSon stuff -- which has been compelling and the best part of this show -- is so out of place on this show, though. But with these writers at the helm, I can see more characters coming out. Why not Marlena and Hope? Or anyone, for that matter?

You know the "story" is bad when people say they will suspend their belief in order to enjoy it.
But isn't that all one does when watching this show? I mean, has there really ever been a time when you haven't had to suspend your disbelief while watching DAYS? Not for me, and that's what makes the show fun. All the stories I watched in the '90s were completely unrealistic but I enjoyed the hell out of all of them. I really could care less if things are crazy and full of fantasy...as long as they're entertaining I will be tuning in. And for me, this is a hell of a lot better than watching this show try to do boring, "ripped from the headlines" types of stories. This whole relaunch has been a bust, but it finally looks like things are turning around and there is some action and good "soapy" stuff ahead for everyone. :)

I've been waiting for something like this since I started watching this show again at the relaunch...some type of adventure storyline.
I don't think this will lead to an adventure story. I think John and Hope will fly to Alamainia, spend a few weeks parading around a single 4x4 set with cardboard walls, hit a snag, end up in danger and then fly back to Salem happily divorced. It might be interesting if it's executed properly and MarDar learn how to write suspense and drama, but the odds of that happening are slim to none. This will fall flat just like everything else on the show.
I'm doubting we'll even see them in Alamainia.

I'm sure we'll see them there. Kristian and Drake weren't off for weeks while Hope and John are supposedly in Alamainia. And on December 12, Kristian tweeted: "Working under cover today ; ) stunts and fun ; ))))" No doubt that means that they're both in Alamainia doing whatever. Sure, I totally admit that this is going to be nothing like the big productions of Maison Blanche and Aremid with the low budget DAYS has now but it sure beats seeing them just sitting around at the HTS or at the Brady Pub talking about the situation. Kristian said stunts so there is obviously some action ahead. I'm looking forward to it...at least it's better than what we've been seeing.

We'll it looks like most of April will be about Bo in a hospital bed with Hope by his side.
I'm hoping we get some good Bo and Hope scenes. I may watch that if Hope is herself.
But I won't be watching the March stuff. I don't trust that John and Hope won't have sex.
I hope they don't but it's not looking good right now.
I think the last thing this show needs is Hope who is about to go through menopause getting knocked up.
Hope's past the child bearing age. Let her enjoy Ciara.
