Chad expresses his support for EJ even after learning they're not related.
That's another reason I love Chad. Sweet :cloud9: Now if only he can go back to his dark roots, cause lately he has become a disgrace to the Dimera name.

Some of this sounds decent. At least we are getting some action. Way too much Sami though. Just go away for a while! Have the bitch go missing.

I can't believe how much EJ has ruined Sami as a character, Nicole at one time too. Please for the love of all that's holy free Days from the albatross that is EJ

Now if only he can go back to his dark roots, cause lately he has become a disgrace to the Dimera name. Maybe this explosion and having the Town Square fall on him makes him lose it. Here's to hoping. :cheers: "Come to the dark side, Chad!" lol.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
There are actually quite a few characters featured. Daniel, Brady, Madison, Will, Nicole, Melanie, Andrew, Gabi, Chad, Hope, Lucas, Abby, Rafe, Cameron, Carrie, Ian, Austin. While I'm definitely not complaining about the EJami stuff - they are not the only characters being showcased.
its how been showcased and been the writing for everthing seem after hought for anything that not include ej and sami carrie leaving with austin while still lusting for rafe it did not seem bother to real exist to austin and carrie lucas use to prop ej and ej and sami and set up fool when ej will prove he did not do that will stuck with worship ian use tp prop ej as poor victim abby probaly willbe used how they will kill jack nicole stuck with daniel hope was not mention brady story his madison since she going to die melanie going to give leave the show did not gave lot scenes or airtime to chad and mel so care we care about the story gabi turn nuts over night and wanted to work for ej despite what he did to her brother
I'm not sure I'm following...are you saying that each of those characters are somehow being used to prop someone else? Isn't that really what every character does? With whomever they are sharing scenes with? For example...the Brady/Madison stuff. If they are killing her off of course it will lead to story for Brady. I don't really feel like Melanie/Chad have lacked for air time. Maybe that's just me, though. Gabi becoming a nutter had more to do with feeling like she didn't exist and being tired of having to work so hard for everything than it had anything to do with EJ. That only came up as a result of seeing Will with the splashy car/apartment. Not propping EJ - just showing the audience that Gabi is willing to find success using dubious means. I would expect Abby to be part of Jack's exit story. Ian's story has more to do with EJ - in fact, they've had little to no interaction. I'd say he's been used to prop Bradison more than anyone else. Carrie/Austin/Rafe are a mess - but not propping anyone other than each other. Dicole seemed to come out of no where - but again, really not propping anyone but each other at this point. Maybe Rafe will now be thrown back into their mix...who knows. I agree that Lucas has seemingly been sacrificed by being tied to Sami and back into a potential triangle with EJami and it's a shame for BD and his fans. But at this point I don't feel like the same can be said for any other characters. The EJill interactions have actually benefited Will, IMO - it's given the chance for the writers to grow the character up a bit and CM has seized the opportunity. Not sure if I've answered all of your points...but this is just how I see things. EJami are not involved in every story with every character - there are plenty of other story arcs going on. carrie leaving no story while stiil lusting for rafe with austin the show do not seem bother to write for carrie and austin good exist
with barley writing for abe for losing his wife and EM latest interviews it does not seem brady will get any writing
Ian's story has more with Bradison but unlike Bradison he had reasonsits ej ian frame with no reason and they've had little to no interaction only to make ej the victim abby being jack exist story the face there exist story for jack and from MA said did not seem bother to write real exist for jack
will did not grow as character he no real direction there only direction there is will team ej and pimp ej and sami like last week will with had short scences with ej and sami to said to them they like 2 peas in pod and he more airtime and mostly with ej and with other talk about ej
the difference CM had more airtime than he had in past that why CM has seized the opportunity to use his Talents
Dicole it for ej will not look bad if slowly go after sami does anyone can root for ejole or nicole outshine ej after dicole there no real direction just remove nicole from ej
ej and sami are not involved in every story with every character but they only one they writers had direction and more writing compare to anyone else in show

Am I missing something? It could be me because I am a relatively new viewer. Been watching for only the last two years..
But I just don't understand why Will and Sami are so invested in proving EJ's innocence.
It doesn't make sense to me after everything that he has done to their family.

I think it's a huge stretch to try to tie every single character/story to EJami and use them as the excuse for all the bad writing (or what you perceive to be bad writing). In truth, EJami have had less interaction with one another than many of the characters you've listed. They've only been prominently featured together in scenes the past few weeks leading up to the cliffhanger.
Regardless, I'm really excited by what we're seeing and the potential outcomes. I hope the show comes thru even partially on it - it would be a huge improvement over most of the past couple of years.

It doesn't make sense to me after everything that he has done to their family. You're not the only one. It doesn't make sense AT ALL. They have both tried to kill him, now they want to help him? The fact that Sami wants anything to do with EJ (or vice versa) doesn't make any sense. Terrible writing.
I was liking the EJ and Will relationship for a while. It's getting too friendly now though.

Tomlin/Whitesell destroying the town square as payback would be truly pathetic on their part. I would hope Corday nor Meng would allow that to happen. It's a great set and losing it would be a huge blow. Just remembered to check....Horton Town Square is listed in many August episodes (all with Tomlin/Whitesell listed as head writers), so it does survive.

Who knows on Will. Almost nobody on the show holds grudges anymore.
A thought on Ian -- We know he was meant to have ties to the Dimera family. Clearly the full story didn't air, so that's why we don't know why he's targeting EJ.

Not sure, but we know she'll continue to appear, as Rinna has been taping. I'm curious to see what Tomlin/Whitesell have in store for Billie. There is a Billie sighting in August. She has some scenes with Kate and Lucas.

It doesn't make sense to me after everything that he has done to their family. He's innocent and people are trying to send him to prison for something he didn't do. Sami and Will believe in him.
Makes sense to me, especially considering Sami has 2 kids with EJ. I'd expect her to do the same for Lucas too despite all he has done to her also in the past.

She clearly wanted him dead when she shot him in the head and later wanted to pull the plug when he survived the shooting.
As for her saying the kids need him, she just looks stupid saying that. After he "kidnapped" Sydney and faked her death that all should have went out the window. Plus he had a dangerous man (Rafe 2) living with his kids. These characters are idiots! I am not seeing any great love story here.

sami did not do anything for lucas when lucas went in jail sami did nothing from preventing from lucas going jail
