I am not a Daniel hater, but him sleeping with Nicole right now is messed up. Right now she is his emotionally fucked up PREGNANT patient. This is bad for both characters.
It is, and that is why I can't comprehend why MarDar would go there with this.....after they admitted that they gave the character a rest because they didn't know what to do with him because of his behavior, specifically with sexing up his patients. What do they do? They have him sex up his pregnant patient.
my guess is they were trying to put Nicole on an even playing field with sami so they could make you Think Ejami was at least plausable. Yep, they had to try to ruin nicole and Ejole to even try their stupid story. Nicole had to hide the baby from ej, check, have her sleeping with daniel, check, turn against Ej, check. Maybe next on MarDar's list was to have nicole shoot Ej in the head and then rape him while lying helpless. That just might have made Nicole worst than Sami. But as it lies, Nicole will always be a better .woman than the Beast from down under This was done for cheap shock value. They saw the controversy over griefsex and wanted to try and do it twice. They are well aware that Daniel is already a controversal character after all of his patient dating and Dannifer debacle. They decided to take it one step further to really shock and disgust people. The fact that they do it in his medical office without any buildup or romance makes it all the more shocking. Also having a pregnant woman initiate the sex after it is implied that she is manipulating him was thrown in there for good measure. They got what they set out for, they got people buzzing. Tiic dont seem to care if it is good or bad buzz :shame: The part that really kills me is that they go on a date later in the week! WTF! Are they really going to try to sell this as a viable relationship! Talk about instaromance! :shame:

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
Will wasn't a disaster walking until Ej screwed up his life, made his mother divorce his father whom she loved and he blackmailed her into a marriage to save the Dimeras from killing off their family. Will's impulsive actions were the direct result of what Ej did to his family. If you can go back to the ONE reason why Will should not be trusting of Ej it's right there..... The writing is pushing an agenda to showcase Ej and Will has having this fatherly bond that does NOT exist, while downplaying any bond that Will had/has with Lucas. They were always very close and sure EM has said that he and BD are intentionally playing it colder since Will blames Lucas moving to HK for 2 years as part of it. But notice that there has been virtually no mention by Will of how much he appreciates what his dad did for him...sure a basic 2 word "Thank you" and that was it...while Will was shown torn up about his betrayal of EJ. If there is ONE thing that Will should realize is that his father went to JAIL to save him from it, got beaten up and almost died and came back to the most horrible of circumstances. Lucas was willing to sacrifice not seeing his daughter for a decade and being away from him for a decade in order for Will to be kept from prison. He lost the love of his life, and a chance at a happy family, as a result of all the decisions that were made to keep Will from going to prison....so to showcase this contrived BS relationship with Ej over what appreciation he should have for his own father is plain stupid, IMHO
We're really going back like 5 years? Sorry but no, I'm talking now while Will's an ADULT struggling with college and his sexuality. (Not to mention Will could have told his father thank you back then when this was actually a plot.) It's not now, so to say Will never in all these years said thank you we don't know. Will over the past year at least he's been dealing with the fact he was gay and not able to admit that. Dealing with his mother cheating. He was a disaster running around calling his mother a whore all over town, getting drunk, blackmailing EJ so he can run away. Who knows where Will would be if EJ hadn't turned the tables on him. Now look at him. He's not that troubled unable to deal with being gay person anymore. He came out to his parents, he's coming out to everyone now. He's going to school. The fatherly bond does exist to me based on what's on my tv screen, it exists based on the actors themselves, it exists based on the praise and media loving them. Things don't just don't exist because people don't want them too, they built EJ and Will up and they're a mentor/mentee relationship.
Will seems like a bigger mess to me now. He doesnt seem to hav any direction, he'a involved in blackmail and murder investigations, and he seems to be losing the conscience he once had. I'm not sure why EJ keeping him in Salem is some saving grace. He wasnt a twelve year old running away to prostitute himself. He's college-aged. That's the right time to leave, lol. Oh Will totally seems like a huger mess now!!
It's first now being revealed that Lucas went to jail for Will. Although some may have suspected it to be the case in 2007, we are first learning of it now. Sami is first learning of it now. Lucas and Will are first learning that it is out in the open insofar as someone else (EJ, now Sami) knows. It's a plot point NOW. It's a motivating revelation NOW. It's unraveling of secrets happening NOW. So NOW would be the time to show Will and Lucas discussing it, or Will showing sufficient gratitude for it. And we haven't seen that, really. Not when compared to the fucking over-the-top reaction he had to betraying EJ. The disparity and incongruity of the feelings Will has shown is just too much to take seriously, and I refuse to. Bad, bad writing.
Will is in school now? really? what's his major? When does he go? When has he cracked open a book? Seems that he was off doing EJ's dirty work instead of going to class. So I am not sure how his "going to school" can be shown as evidence that he is better off now. At least before I saw him sort of going to class and using his brain to set-up and operate a website. That website went to hell in a handbag, of course, and was a boring s/line, but at least Will was trying to do something productive and social. Now he is embroiled in controversies and murder investigations.
Will is still shouting and acting like an immature twit with his mother even after getting involved with EJ. That hasn't really changed.
Will was completely lost as a person once he didn't have EJ to provide for him, once he lost that beloved apartment and car. He felt he had nothing, even though BS because he still had his parents and family, a home with his mother if he wanted, Sonny's friendship, etc. But I guess that all paled in comparison to EJ's shiny toys. Sounds like EJ encouraged co-dependent behavior rather than socializing Will into any kind of liberating, empowered adulthood.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
Meng said that what Marlene said wasn't true.
When did he say this? I'm sure the truth is somewhere in the middle. It's best for NBC to deny all connections to what's currently airing so that MarDar will take the heat if it bombs in the ratings.
He word it exactly like that but he said he couldnt respond because he wanted to preserve a relationship wih MarDar. Which to me sounds like it backs up heyjudes claim that their stories were crap. Regardless, I don't think what we're serif wasn't from them. If this is what NBC wanted, they wouldn't have needed to fire MarDar. Okay, I saw that, but I saw it as a standard professional non answer. I have to disagree about the rest. They might have been carrying out NBC's ideas but doing it poorly, just like the numerous Dena Higley stories that sounded good on paper but were badly executed.

MarDar were all about Ejami no shocker there. I knew Lexie's memorial would be used to prop that pairing. Thank God they were fired. Wish I would have made a bet on that I could have made a few bucks.
Yet according to MarDar they weren't allowed to tell the stories they wanted to tell because NBC kept intervening. The people thinking a switch will be turned and suddenly all of MarDar's stuff will be poof gone and everyone will magically be in different stories are going to be in for a rude awakening. If NBC had the control over them, they have the control with the new writers. PR is leaving, new writers or old writers. It doesn't matter read PR's statement. New writers or old writers doesn't change that new people have come in and taken over the place he once held on the show in airtime. Are the new writers to blame for MA being gone? No. New writers just like old writers couldn't give PR the story and airtime he wanted.
Meng said that what Marlene said wasn't true. I think their control of the 'new' writers might look different. They brought these writers in for a reason which probably means these writers are on the same page as NBC. The truth of the matter is that no one knows what to expect because no one from the show has said anything. There's no guarantee at all who will be in for a rude awakening. However, as I keep saying, this.. - Quote:
-
a switch will be turned and suddenly all of MarDar's stuff will be poof gone and everyone will magically be in different stories
is exactly what has happened every three months wit MarDar's stories since October. Since they haven't switched EPs, I don't expect that to change. Meanwhile, PR didn't appear to have a problem with the writers until the new ones came along. So yeah, I think there's an obvious connection. PR seemed to like MarDar. And yes, I also think the new writers are partially to blame for MA being gone.
Then why isn't PR staying? If it was just the writers that was his problem, there's new writers. They can offer him stories and he can stay right? Wrong. PR's leaving because he got asked for another pay cut and then he's been replaced in the shows hierarchy. His own words. Old writers or new writers isn't going to change that. Where was Bo's character with GT before that writing team got fired? Rafe for example was on a lot with old writers and new writers. MA was fired and that had nothing to do with MarDar. MarDar are the ones that brought him, CC, etc.. back. They all got cut under NBC and the new writers. There's guarantee for rude awakenings for people who think that new writers will suddenly make a snap in fingers and make what they want suddenly happen. People thought that with MarDar and well how did that work out? The stories will continue, they'll evolve and change but things that were set in motion like EJ and Will's relationship isn't suddenly going to disappear into thin air. Lexie's not going to magically come back to life. Yeah...I'm not blaming MarDar. I'm blaming TomSell.
And I think a change with the snap of their fingers is exactly what MarDar did.

I wonder if Nicole loses the baby and somehow kidnaps Carrie and steals her baby. Maybe Nicole is using Dic sex to seduce-blackmail Dan into doing her bidding.

There may be some influence, but I expect things to look a good bit different when their control hits the screen. If this is what NBC wanted, I do think they'd have just kept MarDar who I'm willing to bet are cheaper than TomSell.

So Nicole's going to stab EJ in the back.......color me shocked. :eyeroll: Finally, someone questions Rafe's motives!
I forgot that part. Yes, I'm glad someone finally sees Rafe's semi-obsession to bring EJ down and parent his children. I wonder if anything substantial will really come of it though......I hope so. Just wondering for anyone on the legal team out there how submissible in a court of law is....
my ex wife who is supposedly pregnant with another man's child found bullets in my apartment then gave them to the other man who happens to be leading the investigation. (and both of them have motive to frame me)
Unless EJ's decided to get monogrammed bullets..... I am thinking this is going to be another sad saga in the Salem Police Department's file sheets.

I am not a fan of many of MarDar's SL, but they did make DAYS watchable IMO. DH along with GT and CW ruined this show and it would have been impossible for anyone to undo the damage inflicted.
And now those same writers are coming back and their first thought, was to make it all a dream :drunk: !!!! Easy fix to a problem THEY created! Yep, I have no faith in them at all. They might as well have left MarDar continue! :

I can understand wanting some closure in the Lucas/Will story, but the window for Will to fall at Lucas' feet and thank him over and over for taking the rap has closed. That's what happens when a story is retconned like that.
and I don't even want him falling at LUcas' feet...I just would appreciate the writers not insulting my intelligence and have Will (a kid who has ALWAYS been close to his father) not try to downplay the importance of that relationship with some contrived fly by night BS relationship that came out of the blue with EJ. I haven't seen Will downplaying the importance of his relationship with Lucas. Will and Lucas have shared bonding scenes, they've had serious talks and Will has shown that he's grateful for Lucas' sacrifice. Will has shown a weird affection for EJ too, but it hasn't been to the exclusion of Lucas and with the exception of the scene where Lucas attempted to forbid Will from working for EJ, Will hasn't chosen EJ over Lucas.
I agree that it would make more sense for Will to have the gay bar conversation with someone besides EJ, but I don't think that person should have been his parent.

According to GM in that TV Guide interview, after the Olympics!

I wonder if Nicole loses the baby and somehow kidnaps Carrie and steals her baby. Maybe Nicole is using Dic sex to seduce-blackmail Dan into doing her bidding.
I think thats exactly where MarDar were going as I said earlier in the thread but with the regime change this time Nicole will have her miracle baby. :wub: :wub: It wouldn't surprise me if Mardar planned to have her miscarry and go all Pyscho on everyone. :hypnotize:

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
will may not be chlid but on everything we saw screen will should not confidence to tell ej stuff like he will on today show where he was when stefano died he look like ej little bitch with stuff like that and show dismiss about lucas being very on will life just add pile to rest of the shit
Why shouldn't he have the confidence to tell EJ? EJ's his boss, gave him a job, home, car, treated him like an adult. The Will before EJ gave him a job was a disaster walking. It's not Will's fault or EJ's that Lucas has nothing to do with Will. Will himself pointed out to Lucas when he returned that EJ was there for him when Lucas wasn't.
Why WOULD will have confidence in EJ?? EJ gave him a car, apartment, job -- really?? really?? Seems to me those were conditional gifts that EJ quickly took away the second he felt "betrayed". EJ is God after all, right? He is celebrated on the show enough to make me think so. So EJ giveth and he can taketh away. Why would Will trust someone who has harmed his family? Why would Will trust someone who knowingly allowed his father to go to jail for a crime EJ knew he didn't commit? Why would Will trust someone who was at least partially to blame for the breakup, not only of Lumi, but more recently of the happy home Will had with Rafe and his siblings (unless Will entirely blames Sami for that, which he may). What earthly reason does Will have to trust EJ? The fact that Will was more broken up over "hurting" or "betraying" EJ than he was thankful for the sacrifice Lucas made is utter gar-BAHGE, shit writing. Completely unfathomable. I absolutely agree with LL that the show is pretty deliberately trying to establish a "fatherly" bond between EJ and Will that should not exist. That fact that it's been perpetrated for so long is disgusting. Will being intoxicated by the power of working for a DiMera, lured in by the perks, getting a kick of sticking it to his mother, feeling conflicted over these new-found feelings of power-hungriness and greed when it means working for the man who has caused so much harm to his family -- I can understand THOSE feelings. But fatherly trust for EJ?? I can't get to the bathroom quickly enough to vomit. Also, EJ does not treat Will like an adult. It's complicated, b/c some might say that the responsibilities with which he has entrusted Will are grown-up, or the fact that he wants to train him in the darker arts is treating him like a grown-up, etc. But in reality EJ is bullying and blackmailing Will. That is not treating him like a grown-up. That is treating him like a boy puppet. I only pray that Will wises up quickly and starts doing grown-up things like internalizing these DiMera lessons and turning the tables on EJ. Or that he has been hustling EJ this whole time with his effusive gratitude and repentance. I would love to see Lucas more forceful in the way he intervenes to help or guide Will. Hard to do when EJ is in every scene and Will, for some unspeakable reason, seeks his company. I call foul on the writing and want this to change immediately. And Will does not hold his own as an adult character without Lucas. He acts like a shit around Sonny. He screams the same tired immature crap at this mother. He seems pretty clingy with Marlena, to be honest. And he cowers with EJ except for a few sort-of threats. One of the best spoilers this week is that Will tries to find dirt on EJ. If Will has matured and developed more of an edge b/c of his association with EJ, IN ORDER TO GO AGAINST EJ....that I would accept. It's called perks. You've never heard of company car? Company expenses account etc...? That were taken away when he was fired. When you're fired, you don't get to keep the company car anymore. That's how it works in the real world.
Why would Will trust EJ who allowed his father to go to jail EJ knew he didn't commit? I'd say for the same reason Will HIMSELF allowed his father to go to jail for a crime he knew his father didn't commit. EJ not putting Will in jail, is a pretty big reason for Will to feel indebted to him.

Will should feel indebted to his father and probably thanked him 5 years ago when it happened. The Will betraying EJ, Sami, and Rafe happened NOW. Will's hurt and they're talking about it because it's occurring and a story NOW.
Lucas's sacrifice happened when? Will knew about it all this time, you really think he and Lucas didn't have this conversation back then? When Lucas shipped him off to Carrie and Austin perhaps? Why would Will thank Lucas now for something that happened 5 years ago and they knew about and had to have discussed back then? - Quote:

Will doesn't need Lucas, if anything Lucas needs Will for an adult conversation and for airtime.
Will held his own against Stefano, you don't get more adult than that when Will's holding a gun to Stefano in the raining night. He was along side Kate, Bo, Hope, EJ, Marlena, John, and Abe in that montage. Will's an adult. He's not the teeny set of Gabi and fake stalkers. Will has one on one scenes with Marlena talking, with Sami, with EJ, with Kate, with Sonny. Will's got a lot of interaction going on all over the canvas.
