Nicole's searching and finding bullets and now Sami's finding secret surveillance footage. The 2 of them should take over the SPD and get rid of Rafe & company. They're smarter than the entire police force.

Hmm. It's starting to seem like random baddie Andrew (and, by extension, Gabi) may wind up causing more damage and destruction in Salem than Stefano ever successfully did, even if it's an accident as Melanie is trapped in gas-filled sewers. Love it.

That's about the only thing that's caught my attention. I never would've thought that Gabi/Melanie/Chad would be at the core of the one storyline keeping me connected to the show. It's a bit unsettling.

I expected as much from Sami... As to her making "her rounds"', One man is never enough. Lucas, EJ, Or Rafe, just role the dice folks, anything goes! If Sami sleepS with EJ, while being with Lucas, she is heading down the same path, when she screwed over Rafe. Not creative in the least bit.

If EJ is really not the son of Stefano dimera and JM doesn't make a come back, are they setting up for EJ to be John's son with either Kristen or Susan since ED is coming back? i don't understand why EJ hasn't tried to find out who is his real papa.

Add Ciara and Theo and they'll be just as good, if not better, than the CIA!

Lawd, more Yelly McYellerson? :facepalm: Well I hope they give him something legit to yell about. ;)

I hope Mel uses those scheming skills to good use. I know she's rusty since she hasn't used them in (what seems like) forever but there is no time like the present to use them again!

Because does EJ really need another storyline at the moment? He's already got about 5. I really hope they just fix back his father to Stefano and spares us an entire storyline of EJ out looking for his parents and a reveal.

I believe they're trying to show a pattern. Lucas - she slept with EJ. - Rafe she slept with EJ. Ties back
to them wondering why they can't leave each other alone and Will just saying they're two peas in a pod.

It's not just positive feedback that gets attention. Negative does as well. For both Sami and EJ, it's love or hate without much middle ground, and in all honesty people post on forums, twitter and Facebook just as much about stuff they hate as love. EJ generates buzz. So does Sami, when she's off pulling idiotic stunts


That argument might be true if DAYS ratings didn't stink like dookey balls. People were buzzing about Casey Anthony a couple of years back but that didn't mean it was good. And the whole Penn State fiasco was on the internet, TV, news station, etc. But, that doesn't mean that it was good. Nothing was good about it at all. And the same holds true when people are showing their anger/outrage/disgust over horrible storylines. Many, many, many are put off by DAYS current situation. And that's what's on twitter, facebook, etc.
That'd be like someone buying a computer. The piece of junk lags up, breaks down, etc. for some customers. But, on the other hand, you have a couple of folks who don't experience a blip at all. So, the irate consumers are complaining like hell. And the one or two consumers are raving that it's the best computer since it was invented. A bad company motto would be to say, "well, hell, these few consumers think that this shit is the bomb, and those others might be complaining, but we'll let them keep the defunct junk and don't do anything about. But, hey, they're talking about the product." A good company motto, on the other hand, would be to say, "hey, what can I do to make my product satisfying for EVERYONE, or at the least the vast majority of my customers?" A good businessman is going to work out the kinks and tool it until its humming like a well-made sewing machine.
DAYS is an entertainment show, but, its a product. And people are discontent with it as a whole. So they need to take into consideration all the ire/anger/digust/what-have-you rather than take this idiotic, nonchalant stand of, "well, they're talking". Give me a break, Meng. IT'S NOT WORKING.
The ratings haven't moved inspite of the fact that James/Ali are complete airhogs with all the others' characters movements/actions contingent upon their next steps. Plus, when EJ/Sami are on 5 days a week, gettin 10 minutes shots as opposed to everyone else's 1-2 minute scenes, they're pretty much dominating the airwaves. And not because fans are demanding it, but because for some idiotic reason TPTB think that they're the showstoppers: and they're right because tons have tuned out.
As for buzz, good buzz, IMO, is that like Eileen Davidson coming back. Now, that's the kind of buzz that moves numbers. The kind of buzz that has positive effects. From what I'm reading, I haven't seen any, not saying that it's impossible, fans complaining/bitching/groaning about Kristen coming back. Fans are embracing it eagerly and happily. This type of buzz is what Meng & company should be focusing on. Not the kind where audience discontent is clearly obvious. And obviously, this was MarDar's motto, it got them nowhere and the fans nowhere.
And like clockwork, once again, we're back to reset 975698. This time, however, it's do or die for the show. Only a healthy, high level of viewer satisfaction will make it stick. Not Meng's warped version of negative is healthy indicator for a show's success.

And these spoilers haven't generated what the show needs to be successful in the near future. Most of what I'm reading here isn't overwhelmingly positive, but rather the opposite. This is exactly the kind of stuff that has gotten the show in the hole its in.

I have read several places where every thing is going to change once he is back. So I'm not concerned at all by what I see now. I'll reserve how I feel until the new stuff comes on. I believe all that we are seeing now is Mar Dars. Since we have't seen any Rafe proppin I feel pretty good in saying that this is not his work!
Could you give the rest of us the links? I haven't seen anything that says that, and I read a lot.

Hey, I agree....Sami is a dog...a beast!

Well, Lucas, in the role of chump again...all because AS wants all the men in Salem. Its like that girl want all the toys, the parents buy them, and she plays with them for a couple of hours and breaks them (EJ) or is bored and wants another toy because its new (GV/new role?)

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
But why do the writers favour this character?

You would think it would be in the interest of the show to spread the love around.

There has to be a reason for them to want to give nearly every storyline to this character.

Maybe its because this is the character that they see gets them the most positive feedback.
but it doesn't....it gets them both positive and negative feedback and probably 50/50 if you ask me. He's too polarizing, he's not a character that people 'love to hate', like Stefano or Kate are..or even Kristen. He's a character that you either love to death or hate to death...or you like him with xx female only....
It's not just positive feedback that gets attention. Negative does as well. For both Sami and EJ, it's love or hate without much middle ground, and in all honesty people post on forums, twitter and Facebook just as much about stuff they hate as love. EJ generates buzz. So does Sami, when she's off pulling idiotic stunts.
when you used character the most and written the most that character most likely get the most bazz[even without been Controversial]
thay why people asking to lower the airtime what do know if character the most bazz for right reasons simply because he used the most

the difference if it still create bazz with less airtime and less writing
jack its good example for someone they should use he create lot bazz with barely on the air image what would happen if they use him

So Ian is setting EJ up, can we conclude that Ian also killed Stefano? And the bigger question is, why? Then can one conclude that Ian is using Kate to get to DiMera Enterprises? Then which side will Kate be on, Ian's or EJ's?

IA, Ian is the killer and Kate his fool, used for getting some sort of revenge on Steffy. Kate has been duped, but I soon see her figuring it all out, hopefully not too late. I'd like her to team up with no one, stand her ground and protect Steffy's Dimera Enterprises herself.

How can they arrest EJ? The letter doesn't prove he killed Stefano and Sami finding the footage of EJ throwing the gloves away proves that he didn't use them so how the hell did the dumbass SPD get a warrant?

It's the SPD, they arrested Will based on nothing but a gun powder residue test.

And? It's doesn't prove he actually committed the crime. Half of Salem had a motive to kill Stefano.
