Oh EJami in spoilers, and very positive ones that accentuate that sexual tension that continually stands in the room like an elephant that everybody notices. Those two so need to deal with it. :sex4: LOL Looks like another good week. My ga friend will get hooked again if this continues. Thanks for posting :D |

Like all those moments of EJ needing comforting or Sami needing comforting weren't very obvious. Not to say that EJ wouldn't want someone to talk to about his sister [I am not suggesting he would have just brushed it off or anything], just funny how it was written for Sami to be there. Not to say as the mother of his children it doesn't make a little sense, but just added all together....it's raises my soap-opera device alerts. But that is just my opinion; I guess I am biased and more likely to see them this way - seemed to be layed on kinda thick. Goes back to my saying how every other day I saw another "sami" + "comforting" spoiler. If I had taken a shot of tequila for every one one of those spoilers, I might be in the hospital for alcohol poisoning. As it is I feel pretty ill about the whole thing anyway.
I believe Lucas also supported Sami through a lot of those messes, siding with her, for ex., in the mole debacle. He may not have been pleased to hear of it at first, but his allegiances were with Sam. for ex. And he dropped his life in Hong Kong the moment Sami called. But I guess that makes him a lapdog for helping. While it makes EJ is the true love of her life or something.
Lucas has said the same thing - about Sami being the same person and that's why he married her; she doesn't need to change (maybe at most the small things we all have to work on anyway - no big deal); when she asked why he was ready to give them another chance, what she did for him to want that, he said "you were just you", etc. And when he first came back from HK, he also told Sami "I want you to know I meant what I said - you're not alone in this anymore" Which I could just dismiss as clear pimping, so hyperbolic is the number of characters who have said something. Laying it on a little thick again, methinks. I think of Alice Horton as a truth-teller too, and from beyond the grave she is pro Sami/Lucas.
If you say so. I don't see it. I don't see anything so special or game-changing, that it's nothing I haven't seen before.
Well, Lucas and Sami are Will's parents - so that makes sense. And Will has been through a lot recently, so that still makes sense. If EJ and Sami had quite as many discussions about Will as Lucas and Sami, I would be even more irritated than I currently am. And since Will is so wrapped up in EJ at the moment, makes sense that a discussion about Will would go hand in hand with one about EJ. And Lucas and Sami have had several conversations about each other, where they currently are, their relationship, etc. Seems that some of it may have also taken place off screen, as Sami told Lucas on Tuesday's show "we've talked about this, haven't we?" Interesting.
I am happy for you, that you are seeing your couple written the way you like. That is nice. I know I am miserable seeing my trashed for this pairing once again. So do enjoy it - it is much fun to be able to revel like that. And I mean that genuinely; not sarcastically, honestly. However, I will have no part of what Days is selling, if they are selling this. For myself, I am turning off my tv and just hanging on for the day this all subsides. I really couldn't care less about the spoilers for next week (a few curious gems here and there, but nothing too too thrilling). This show is just utterly depressing. Keeping my fingers crossed for the week before the Olympics, and then for after once the new writers' scripts start playing out. It's really all I can hang my hat on at the moment. End to shippy post Edited by elci525, Jul 11 2012, 09:57 PM.

Lucas was brought back for Will's coming out story, and he was only going to have a short run on the show, but Bryan held out for a longer contract. So MarDar had to come up with some kind of story line for him, and the broken engagement/insta-reunion rebound with Sami is what he got. Edited by gailwinters, Jul 11 2012, 10:31 PM.

I wonder sometimes if Lucas' role in this story was initially supposed to go to Rafe. Rafe disturbed by the EJ/Sami relationship. Will torn between Rafe (who was early in MarDar's run hyped by Will as the ideal father) and EJ. Rafe torn between Sami and Carrie. Then they abruptly moved Rafe into Nicole's story, and yanked him out of Sami's life. They needed a man Sami had history with and who hated EJ, so they brought Lucas back. That seems to be his main role. I certainly don't get the impression they care about Lucas' relationship with Will (who barely seems to tolerate Lucas), or anyone else. |

The coming out story amounted to people looking surprised for half a scene and then saying fine by me. I wonder if it would have filled even one episode. |

Yep, even the coming out story, Lucas was woefully absent. I may not be Lucas's biggest fan but I believe he should have a stable role in Salem given his history and connections. I just think that the reintroduction of almost every one of Kate's children without a story with their family is an epic fail. It's yet another unbelievable waste. |

For all we know, Rex and Cassie came back too; Kate's other kids get just about as much airtime. |

IMO better Lucas than Rafe. Lucas has really good reasons to hate EJ - he broke up his marriage, stole his wife, slept with her, spends time around his kids. Rafe just hates EJ for no reason other than his involvement with Sami. I for one will never understand Rafe's obsession with EJ, or his obsession with EJ's children and I'm still waiting for an explanation from the writers regarding it. IMO Will should look up to his father, not his step father, with whom he barely spent a couple of years of his life. |

I agree with you on that - I never quite knew why Will suddenly saw Rafe as father of the year (and then promptly lost all interest in Rafe and the happy family about a month later). But I think the show was only interested in that element with Rafe. I rarely get the idea that Will cares about Lucas. |

I think Will only saw Rafe as a father cause his dad was not in town, but I think he sincerly cares for both. |

that makes no sense because its not like Lucas abandoned his kids. He was gone fir two years. Allie visited him and he asked Will to go with him. Will has no reason to disrespect his loving father for Rafe and definitely not EJ. Where's the Salem brain cause no one has it right now. ETA: it sure gets quiet when people get fed up with the BS. I wish Days would take note of that. Edited by Aliaron, Jul 12 2012, 09:32 AM.

I don't know. EJ kidnapping Rafe, replacing him with an impostor who raped his wife, leading to Rafe almost getting killed, kind of seems like a legit reason for Rafe to hate EJ. Edited by Lucky, Jul 12 2012, 09:41 AM.

Don't you know? No one has a real reason to hate EJ. But all this love he's now getting from characters he royally screwed over multiple times makes perfect sense. And its about time we saw it! :sarcasm: |

Really? We're currently on page 52 of this thread. I wouldn't consider that 'quiet'. |

I look back the last couple days since I wasn't online mostly. Just a small few are talking doesn't make it active just makes them talkative. Three people can turn a post into twelve pages if they wanted to. It's still three people. Example NBC's official Days board. Speaking of which, what happened to that board? I remember when it was hopping. I do think the cliffhanger will cause buzz. I wish it would cause good storytelling. Edited by Aliaron, Jul 12 2012, 10:28 AM.

Threads typically slow down after a while and then fizzle out - but I think the overall size show there has been quite a lot of discussion. Personally, I enjoy not having to read through pages and pages of fanwanking (admittedly more or less so depending on who is doing the wanking) so shorter threads wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing as far as I'm concerned. But I definitely wouldn't say that's what we have with this one. |
