"What's the big deal?" Thank you, John. Sigh. We're going to have watch these morons all get married again. There's just no way around it.
I ain't no Celeste a psychic or anything but I see a double wedding coming up, oh yes people another wedding.
I hope not. John/Marlena and Bo/Hope deserve their own separate weddings, in separate months. Make them separate events.
If they're going to make us sit through wedding #47, I think they should be as efficient as possible. "Do you, Marlena and Hope, take these men, John and Bo, to be your everlasting husbands..."
And then a year from now we'll have a big angsty story delving into the fact that when they said their vows they accidentally looked at the wrong betrothed. :doh:

I'm another who thinks dark Brady was a positive change. IMO the problem is that when he lost his edge, he didn't turn back into the guy he was before. Actually, the main problem is bradison. Brady isn't really a well rounded character anymore; he's a combination of every gag-worthy romance novel love interests put together.

Classic Soap Fan

Today's show was directed by Herb Stein & written by David A. Levinson (who I typically like, but today was... well...)

I'm really not going to delve too deeply into this thread today because... well... Only so many times one can bang one's head against a wall. But a few thoughts...

Marlena telling Carrie she didn't do anything wrong was an EPIC FAIL of character.

After seeing drunken Austin go into uber-swishy mode (he really was "that guy" in every gay bar), I don't know why Abby still wants him. I do like how they're written the story line that Austin is completely oblivious to Abby's crush (and still mostly regards her as a kid) and Abby's struggle to be viewed as an adult woman (hence her crush on an older man who she thinks of as a man).

Sami really needs to clean her windows. Those were nasty.

It's all fun and Segways until someone goes over a cliff.

I think they ruined Brady when he went on his bender thus creating Bad/Grey Brady, concurrently whitewashing bad Philip for Melanie. Brady could always use an edge but I feel like this shift in personality has really been to his detriment. He was interesting with Nicole during the miscarriage because he had a vulnerability with her and wanted her to do the right thing. Now he is just a sleazy, FallinInLove Asshat.
I much prefer edgy Brady. I will never mourn the death of showtunes singing Brady. Or Ethan-lite Brady.
I agree, the super white hat was bad too and I really wanted to like him but I feel like he is too emotionless to identify with. He isn't a business bad ass, he barely interacts with any characters and he's been relegated to basically to bang whatever useless new character they bring in.

I thought he finally hit a good place during the baby swap and quickly turned him away.
I think the actor is the problem. I've tried really hard to like Brady but I find Eric Marstolf flat yet, from everything I hear offscreen he's funny and delightful. I like him with Ari a little but let's face it, Ari has chemistry with almost everybody.

I never saw EM on Passions, was he better? I don't mind the dark Brady but about the only darkness EM added to Brady was making it painfully obvious he was drinking, taking a sip every 15 seconds.

EM wasn't good on Passions, but it's not like he really had much to do, since his character was basically a dumber version of Austin.

You can tell by looking at Rafe and Sami’s eyes they love each other with everything they have! Sami is letting her guilt get in the way of her love for Rafe. I don’t think it’s over, Rafe said he will always love Sami, and last week Sami asked Rafe, and Carrie asked Austin if they were OK, and the guys both said YES! The last time I cried for SAFE was when Grace died until today, they are both hurting so badly and both to stubborn to give in and talk about it~

Marlena officially became a BITCH today!!!!!! You didn’t do anything wrong, you didn’t mean to hurt anyone! WHT! How could Marlena say that to Carrie? If this was the first time Carrie went after one of Sami men maybe, but she does this with every new man Sami has feeling for. I don’t care what Sami has done to Marlena a mothers love is suppose to be unconditional, but instead Marlena is stabbing Sami in the back and turning the knife! But her precious Princess Carrie is perfect, ruining two marriages and giving Carrie the green light to continue hurting Sami and Austin!

Brady and Madison I just don’t see the attraction there!

Bo, Hope, John, and Marlena are just a mood-point this all happened years ago and who really cares anymore, I don’t!

Austin and Abby is just down right stupid and dumb, guess Carrie didn’t break Austin heart to badly!

Uh, don't you mean Sami goes after Carrie's men? Austin, sweetie? When the hell has Carrie gone after Sami's "men" besides this Rafe thing?

Seriously? Wtf? Being a blood relative has nothing to do with love or parenting.
No, it doesn't, and I'm not saying that Marlena shouldn't love Carrie and vice versa and guide her if she needs it, but for her to continously choose Carrie, who isn't her daughter, over Sami who is, to me is ridiculous. For her to tell Carrie that she did nothing wrong in kissing her daughter's husband is ridiculous. Are we supposed to think that Marlena doesn't love or care what happens to Sami's marriage with Rafe because of this? I know she knows Sami had sex with EJ, but Carrie doesn't know that, and what she's hearing is that Marlena is condoning what she did by saying she did nothing wrong. If Sami had done it, would she have told Sami that? I sincerely doubt it.
I agree that it's ridiculous for Marlena to seemingly side with Carrie in this - but I'd think it was just as ridiculous if Belle (her biological daughter) was swapping spit with Sami's husband as it is with Carrie.
Maybe Marlena will be getting her payback for telling Carrie to go for it with Rafe, when she finds out that her precious marriage isn’t what she thought it was, especially when your husband is married to Hope!?!?!?!? Sometimes karma is a wonderful thing!

Soooo sorry....I HAVE to disagree.....she gave him shit when Johnny went missing...she blamed him for everything and made him feel like garbage....followed by the romp dee romp on the Dimera couch with EJ.....upon finding out that her son was dead....which she probably would have blamed Rafe for. I mean....COME ON!!!!! Love....really!???The character of Rafe has been really good to Sami and has proven many times that he loved her...HOWEVER can't say the same for Sami sorry!!!!This isn't just the LUMI fan in me talking but...I do feel that there was a love story there..And it's thanks to the chemistry between BD and AS but They just portray time and time again on the show that they have a very unique soulmate-like connection.

I don't see how this would be any more acceptable the first or the fiftieth time. Playing tonsil hockey with your sister's husband would never be okay...no matter how many husbands it is.

Sami even told Rafe yesterday that this wasn't the first time Carrie did this, and the look on Carries face said it all. I believe that Carrie left her wedding bed with Lucas to have sex with Austin, if you want to find out more read the history on Carrie!

You see it one way and I see it another! Good thing we all have different opinions about the couples on the show!
