Ok...I like it...I am on board!! A bit contrived for sure, but I LOVE John/Hope stories and I LOVE when characters leave Salem on a mystery and go to places that are so obviously fake (Aremid, Alamania ect) LOVE IT!

I hope their lives are turned on their head there...and I hope they uncover more secrets there and that Stefano has a dastardly evil agenda in store for them while they are there. I also hope Marlena and Bo are heavily involved.

I am also VERY ready for a big adventure story, something that will end up with half the cast heading to Alamania as well...MAKE IT HAPPEN DAYS!
Sorry to disappoint you but John and Hope are back in Salem at the end of March.
It looks like Hope is by Bo's bedside then!
Doesn't look like an a adventure to me!
Days don't have the budget for big adventures anymore!

Oh, but you just KNOW Hope will come back pregnant. And of course she won't miscarry or abort the fetus like the audience wants. Instead she will give birth to a healthy baby, and Marlena and Bo will just have to live with it. Live with John torn between feeling guilty and wanting to be a father to that disgusting child.

No thanks. I'd rather John be permanently dead than live through that pain. I will just hate him further and further. And feel as much sympathy for him as I do Newt Gingrich. Which is a "get your tainted and disgusting self off my tv screen, you ass" type of feeling.

No. If John fucks Hope (mind control or not) and gets her pregnant, he can be mauled to death by a grizzly bear, and I wouldn't shed a tear at his demise. There is NOTHING to make him sympathetic if he does this. Just pure hatred for him.

I hope that doesn't happen but this show is so fucked up it's not funny anymore!
Hope should be past the child bearing age and should be going through menopause.
But with these writers they will think it's great to have a 49 year old woman pregnant. It won't matter to them that the audience is disgusted and revolted and won't watch.
Don't forget Billie whose going to be hanging around Bo like a bad smell. And Kate begging her to get Bo back.
We will probably find out in a few months the real Gina(The Psycho) is alive (even though she died of lung cancer) and has been in Salem since John and Hope returned from Alamania and the real Hope is being held captive in Alamania.
That being said I hope Hope comes back as Hope and not Gina.
This show is going downhill.

Honey, I'm 51 years old and haven't hit menopause yet. (Pisses me off!) ANYTHING can happen on a soap. Remember Marlena's pregnancy by Winston in, what 2006? She only lost it because she fell down the stairs.
I say, BRING IT! Stir up the shit a little. Can't hurt anything anymore than it already has, no matter what the NBC "insider" says.

Jope is not going to have sex...certainly not as the John and Hope we all know...so come on people...lets get real here.

If they hit the sheets its because they will be Gina and the Pawn....and I love Princess Gina and The Pawn!
The real John & Hope would never in a million years sleep together. They are both happily married. Those two other freaks would though...And I think they will. And I will puke.
Won't be watching any of it!
Well I will certainly be watching...and so will millions of others....DAYS is not gonna have some appocolyptic drop from this...I am ready for Bope and Jarlena to get some fucking action for a change.

And I always loved Princess Gina and Jawn, so bring it on...ready for some damn action on this show. And I am HUGE fan of JARLENA and BOPE, but its time for them to have some SERIOUS drama thrown their way.
I totally agree with you! :D Bope and J&M are my favorite couples on this show, but I can't tell you how bored I am with them right now. In order to keep a couple interesting you have to give them angst and drama, and bringing back Princess Gina and The Pawn will do that. And I always did love that story. It was totally entertaining and MUCH BETTER than anything we're getting right now, so bring it on.

I am totally looking forward to this story and hope that people will be tuning in to see it.

BTW Mitch, your avi is HILARIOUS!!!!! I can't stop laughing! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Gina's not coming back. Hope's going undercover to pretend to be Gina.

And I doubt very much KA would want her character to be pregnant on the show.
They said in Feb sweeps the story was about love being stronger then Stefano DiMera. Given the pics tweeted recently it appears both Bope and Jarlena are still together.
This isn't going to be some big adventure story.

Just wanted to say that this thread has been so much fun to read! 26 pages and counting! And how nice to see that it's about a story that has nothing to do with Sami for a change! :D That right there is cause for celebration! :cheer:

Hope's mother was in her 50s when Hope was born so Hope having a baby while in her 40s is not outside the realm of possibility! :wink:

I think nothing sexual will happen between John and Hope.
Their love for Bo and Marlena will be what saves them in Alamania.
I think everyone has been reading too much into this.
I still hope nothing happens between John and Hope though.
Hope has an 8 year old daughter that she barely takes care of.
The last thing she needs is another kid.

All this about Hope and John being alone for 2 weeks and something may happen over there. What if the set up is for something to happen back in Salem with Bo & Marlena? No, not with each other but isn't the timing around when Billie gets back and isn't this new character Ian supposed to have surprising connections already in Salem (beyond Kate, which isn't surprising)?

I've been thinking it could be that too.

I don't think that's really fair to say. Just because people may want different things for their couples doesn't mean that one person is more a true fan than the other. I love Bo & Hope and John & Marlena, but I also want a story for them. It doesn't interest me to see them play one beat, one emotion all the time. What keeps me interested in couples is seeing them go through some struggles and hardships and then overcoming them and seeing them come out stronger for them. I want to see their ups and downs, and just because I want to see those "downs" surely doesn't make me a non-fan of J&M and Bope. It just seems misguided to think that.

We'll according to Peter the writers have said they are going to give Bope more therapy sessions. But when that happens is the question. No doubt the sessions will be about Billie and this latest fiasco.

This is so ridiculous. And it doesn't even make sense. These idiot writers/Corday are going to push John and Hope on us AGAIN, which don't get me wrong, I thought they were hot the first time. But I am so sick of this crap. Everything on DAYS right now is terrible. TERRIBLE. ALL OF IT.

You know what though...for me it's almost like, if something doesn't happen with John/Hope then this whole storyline is a big waste of time. I think that's why people are jumping to that conclusion. Because otherwise...what the fuck is the point, really? Oh, they're married but their love for Marlena and Bo triumphed over...a piece of paper saying they were married. That's just dumb, imho.

Okay, I really don't want John and Hope to hook up when they're on their little getaway, but the way people are acting like its the end of the world is starting to make me cheer for it to happen! I cannot stand the "i'll never watch this show again..." or "this show will be dead to me..." comments! I feel like anytime someone says that they deserve to get the opposite of what they want. So right now I'm starting to hope that John bangs Hope's back out multiple times and gets knocked up.

I don't want anymore babies on this show for a long time...UNLESS they finally give Nicole a child that she deserves. This show severely needs a shake up. I don't want Bope or Jarlena to break up, but they bore me to tears when they aren't doing anything so I'm just going to be happy that Stefano is actually putting a real strain on their marriage instead of something that doesn't even have the possibility to change anything.

These are four characters that I want on my screen as much as possible, but I want them to be doing SOMETHING rather than nothing. So I say lets do this.

Exactly!! If something doesn't happen to cause issues for J&M and Bope, then what's the point? This "secret" as something that was big enough to make Alice enter into a deal with Stefano. If all it takes to make things right is a quickie annulment and a double wedding (gag!) then it makes Alice look like an idiot for making the deal with Stefano and handing over her secret. I realize that the writers are making it so Alice didn't know what the secret was, but it still makes her look stupid -- and I hate that.

So, something has to happen that makes this more than just John and Hope having to travel to Alamainia together. It doesn't have to be them having sex. But it does have to be something that legitimately threatens J&M and Bope so that there is something they have to actually overcome. Otherwise they haven't proven that love triumphs over Stefano because the love was never put to any kind of test. All they have proven is that their great love can survive a couple of weeks apart and a marriage that nobody remembers or cares about. Whoopee. That's hardly a supercouple level obstacle.

People have been asking for a storyline that is about J&M and/or about Bope. They want them to do more than have sappy love scenes or dig through old records. Well, here it is. I don't think there's a chance that the endgame is anything other than J&M and Bope. I don't think there is any chance that we'll see the real John and real Hope having feelings for anybody but their respective soulmates. If those two things are virtually guaranteed (and I believe they are) then this is the kind of supercouple story that has actual potential.
