WILL and SONNY need to get together, but I am looking forward to a slow, sweet romance for those two.

Sounds like a good week!!! :)
I would really prefer they not get together. It'd be like the way they tend to pair off the Black people on soaps. Just...bring in another gay guy. This late in the soaps survival game, there's really nothing to lose, imho. Bring on another gay guy, maybe see if you can build a small family around it. That's what I'd prefer.

I love the idea of Rafe learning because he overhears a conversation. I just wish it were full-on 90s and Will was having that conversation with himself. I also wish it could somehow be bigger. We should be at an EJ/Nicole wedding, or reception- something where there can be spectators.

The rest of it- we'll see. I want to see how Nicole and Sami interact.

About the level of detail in the article- I kind of think it was necessary because their vague stuff is super vague, and Days hasn't had a real climax in forever far as I'm concerned (I don't count how they wrap stuff up when an actor is leaving). From this point, maybe they can find a happy medium in their teasing.

Oh- the gay kiss- between that and Abby possibly having a romance with Celeste's son we're moving nicely into the late 20th century. It's kind of...surprising. I wonder if it'll last, or if they'll blame low ratings on this.
Personally interracial couples are fine but I miss young black couples. Tv shows act like they don't need them anymore. But what if every couple was mixed. No white main coupling. People would say its unrealistic. No black couples is pretty unrealistic to me.

Also they should have made Will bi. They limit Will's relationships by making him gay. Everytime a gay character come on the show you know who it must work with. Plus will being bi would be ten times more drama filled. Because people would say "why can't he just be with a woman then."

This all sounds pretty good.

I'm hoping and praying this is the permanent end to the horrors that are Safe and EJole, but Rafe is a doormat and Nicole is needy and pathetic, so I'm not getting my hopes up.

I'm excited for the Will stuff. This storyline desperately needed some movement.

I still would have preferred a big soapy reveal for EJami sex. I wanted Will to blurt it out in the middle of HTS with all the interested parties present and then some.

Atleast the secret is out and I do like that the four of them are together for some scenes. I hope they play out as good as they sound.

I'm thrilled they've finally kicked this part of Will's storyline into high gear. About time.

Soaps being what they are today, I do in fact agree that Will has been boxed in, gay storylines haven't been well developed across the board they should have left it open ended and developed his story, personal growth, making mistakes and learning. There's only so much that they can do and they can't do self loathing for long even though IRL some struggle for an entire lifetime, DOOL doesn't have that luxury. Who knows what these writers have planned for young William after officially coming out.

Nicole fighting Sami is stupid. If anything she should confront and pimpslap EJ. I want the strong Nicole back. She's been missing for several years. She needs to lay into EJ bringing up all he's did to her and all she's had to forgive. He basically destroyed her family. She needs to be more than EJ's sidekick.
If Ej gets attacked for the beastsex by Rafe then Sami should have to face the consequences as well considering she is just as much responsible. I'd like to see someone anyone take the beast down a few notches, but of course I have my doubts whether AS will allow that to happen.

I like how everything related to Will sounds on this article. Will pulling Neil in for a kiss is a very good thing. He felt attracted to him and went for the kiss. I don't think Will is entirely drunk given the way he reacts when he realizes that Sonny saw them kissing. The alcohol just made him lose his inhibitions but he is very conscious about what he is doing.

I was concerned that Will wasn't the one initiating the kiss. It is good to see Will finally giving in to his true feelings.

What I don't understand is why he is so afraid of telling the truth to Sonny. Sonny is gay and he wont ever judge. No one understands what Will is going through better than Sonny. Will doesn't have to prove anything to Sonny. He would not lose anything by telling him.

Sonny have been such an amazing friend to Will. He opened up and revealed his hardships and encouraged Will selflessly. Sonny is the only friend that have been there for him since Will went berserk at Maggie's place last December. The rest probably assume he is irk because of Gabi and don't even care to find out more. Sonny is there for Will and does not pressure him to come out, but Will unfortunately is still lying to him.

Now with Marlena, I am VERY curious to see what she will answer to Will's "I kissed a guy. Does that make me gay?". Marlena should see this as a perfect opportunity since it is the first time Will utters the word gay in front of her. Since she knows that Will is gay, I hope she gently dwell on his feelings and pushes him in the right direction before Marie Barone barges in.

Now, the question is how much longer we have to wait for Will to say the words. What happens after the kiss? Another three week break without anything related to the gay storyline? This story desperately needs continuity and consistency plus a faster pace. I find it ridiculous that this is the only storyline going slower than friggin sloth.

I hope they have the big reveal set for May sweeps.

I'm looking forward to EJ proposing to Nicole, but after that, I'm kind of "meh" about it all. I've seen this before and I have no expectations that MarDar will do anything other than dust off an old script and tweak it a little-if they do, then I may be pleasantly surprised.

If there is any "beating" going on, I hope the writers at least change it up from the same old crap and let EJ beat the hell out of Rafe and let Nicole beat the hell out of Sami. Now THAT would be :popcorn: worthy!

I think it's because Will thinks that by opening up to Sonny, he officially has a "gay close friend", but if he keeps his distance from Sonny, he's not included in that group. I think it's all part of Will's trying to deny his feelings. If he's not confiding in someone gay, then he's not really associated with that social circle.

I never say I'll stop watching if....but if they pair Nicole with Rafe even for a ONS I'm OUT! Has he EVER looked at her in any other way than as if she's shit on the heel of his shoe? Even when he was wearing that ridiculous costume and she called him on it, he still had the nerve to sniff his nose down on her.


A few years ago, Rafe pretended to be into Nicole for some Sydney-related reason. I remember them being in a hotel together. They had pretty good chemistry.

While this sounds like a great week, the show seems to be making reveals on all the storylines this month and they haven't laid much groundwork for whats next . Which means the next few months are going to be all setup with the new characters coming in, with the climax next Sept or November. ?

I'm betting Will's kiss won't be shown, or will be done from a strategic angle so viewers don't see any lips locking.

I dont get why ALL their SLs have to "end" on the same week? They could have spaced it out better. I do see an improvement in that the "Steffy's secret" SL is going to continue through March and probably April until next sweeps in May. There's also the laughably stupid Bope/Jarlena one too, but that one is so unbelievable that I just can't buy into it. I just hope Steffy's SL is not dull and boring.

I thought Marlena was suppost to be the one to let the beastsex out of the bag?
Oh please, no. Marlena doesn't get to do anything real when it comes to Sami. She's just the Salem version of the Wailing Wall.

Re: Will. I'm really looking forward to see Will kiss a guy. I wonder how far TPTB will let DAYS go with their "standards and practices" people. I also think its great that Sonny is his friend and there's no feelings towards each other. Will already is in a complex situation with his sexuality and his secret about shooting EJ, I dont think he should have the pressure of either Will or Sonny being attracted to each other.

I'm glad she's not the one to reveal it. We'd still be hearing about it in 19 years if she were. Plus, I'd like to think Marlena is a little more cautious than that.

While this week sounds at least entertaining, it could have been so much better. Where were all the OMG-today-could-be-the-day moments along the way? Where was the big build-up to the secret finally coming out? Where is the big public confrontation with everyone staring and gasping? You know you suck when Dena Higley is better at writing dramatic reveals than you are.

I'm glad Nicole throws the rings across the room. Very realistic reaction. I want her to make EJ have to chase her for a few weeks. Don't make it easy for him Nicole!

The more I think about the reveal the less anticlimactic it becomes. While Sami betrayed her marriage, her soul-mate dujour, and her perfect family, EJ didnt really betray anything but Nicole's trust, which by now she should expect despite her pleading for honesty.
The reveal scenes will probably be entertaining but the fallout will play to each of the quad of actor's weaknesses. Nicole indecisive, Sami crying, EJ groveling and Rafe being emotional. This means weeks of horrorible storyline.

Yep - this is my concern as well. I'm waiting to see what the spoilers for the following week indicate - but I'm not holding my breath that it will be anything more than what you've just described.

Wimpy, Scrunchy, Sniveling and Monotone are my least favorite versions of each of these characters.

I don't want her to reveal it (that would be highly out of character for Marlena, heck, she only revealed her own affair to Roman despite Sami's threats when it became clear that Stefano would tell him if she didn't), but it would be nice if she at least got to tell Sami that she knows what she did. And (if they wrote it right) to see Sami not be able to say anything.
