I was pretty tired of Ejami by around October 2006. Still tired of them. Will prob be taking a long break from Days for the immediate future. Excepting any mention of Will, Sami or EJ (even Will and Sonny together doesn't make me as happy as it once did; I've just lost almost all affection for that kid [not Sonny]), the spoilers for the week are intriguing - I do like it when new characters are (understandably, not forcibly) introduced into storylines they previously had no part in. That is often fun. So for that reason I will give this week's episode some of my viewing time.
And gradual or not, I am just holding onto the hope that [positive] changes - even just the ones that are natural to the ebb and flow of a soap - do occur.

What the . . . So they're really gonna blow up their beloved Town Square set??? I guess with so many explosions maybe we'll get treated to a bunch of new sets after the Olympics? The one thing I wouldn't mind seeing get blown up is the tan cat detectives' office/Lexie's/Daniel's office/interrogation room/police station/Carly's rehab room (did I miss anything?). That is all shades of cheap-ass-ugly.Oh and please throw the DiMera couch on top of the burn pile for good measure!!!
This all sounds really good to me. This is the first time I've been excited about Days in forever. So many story lines intersecting! Looking forward to it!
Your banner is outstanding, Ejami and Ejwill, that is how it should be :D Exactly! Team EJAMILL for the win! :cheer:
LOVE that Sami and EJ are trying to help EJ! :cheer:

Quoting limited to 4 levels deeppast.
When did Sami become this woman that fights for truth and justice? I'm sorry but the Sami I know and love doesn't care about innocence and guilt unless it gives her the results she wants. Helping EJ with no ulterior motive is unlike Sami. If she doing it to keep her job or is scared of ej blackmailing will it would make a small amount of sense. Not much. But a little. But none of that has been define. Right now this storyline is out of character for everyone involved. It makes no sense.
I think she does have an ulterior motive. She can't have sex with EJ if he's in prison, LOL. Really though, at the end of the day, Sami is hot for EJ and may even love him so she does things for him and forgives him things she wouldn't for other people. I don't think it is any more complex than that.
Sami is in love and that is why this doesnt make sense? What an easy excuse fir bad writers. Maybe that explanation would work if we had never seen Sami Brady in love. But we have seen her in love and Sami in love is not one who would let a man blackmail her child and still help the man. And to say a Sami in love forgives easily is basically saying Sami never loved Marlena and John. Because before this version of Sami began six years ago Sami was always struggling to forgive. I guess the Sami I saw 20 years before the vedetta was not the true Sami. Well I won't argue that its great writing because it isn't, but I don't find Sami's willingness to overlook some of EJ's trangressions outside the realm of possibility in the soap world. On a much lesser scale, I know I've let things slide for a guy I was in love/lust with that I wouldn't let slides for others. The level of trangression is hugely diffrent but the sentiment is the same.

HA! I hope MarDar didn't spend too much time trying to figure out why they were fired!! This is complete garbage! I can't wait for mid August to see how poor Tomsell get themselves out of this mess! It's almost comical!!
Marlene said "they won't let us write what we want to write" OH BOO HOO! Like Stefano always says "You Stupid Idiot!" His words really suit Mar and Dar!! Can you even imagine if those hacks had not been fired?? WOW! What a way to lose what at one time was a great show!
Bye bye EJ/Sami's sick friendship! Bye bye Dan's hooks on Nicole! Bye Bye Rafe having any feelings for Carrie!! Bring on the Lumi/Safe triangle! Ejole is on the way too! I love the tweets we got from Ari, Galen, and of course the Lumi Magic one from Lucas last week!! At least we know there is some intelligence left in Burbank!! You're getting tweets from Lucas? Wow, I'm impressed. ;)

Yeah she doesn't seem to have taped much the last couple of weeks (though more than she has the last couple of months). She seems to be spending alot of time in Tennesee lately aswell (and not just in dark weeks). But if it's true yes it does make it infuriating but I don't know. There doesn't seem much point in Jennifer being around if they are just going to have her move on again but who knows what goes through these writers minds.

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 If Ej somehow "ruined" Sami, then he needs to keep on doing that because if anyone ruined Sami is Rafe.

There doesn't seem much point in Jennifer being around if they are just going to have her move on again but who knows what goes through these writers minds. I think in their haste to get rid of Jack/MA, T&W 2 may have written themselves into a corner with Jennifer. The character's already taken a huge beating from T&W 1, Higley 2.0, and MarDar: she comes across as shallow, fickle, self-absorbed, childish, and emotionally stunted, as if she's shown no true growth for about 10 years--which may well be the case. Having her move on romantically at warp speed after Jack "dies" would be grossly inappropriate. If Jennifer doesn't take the time to grieve and truly mourn for the love of her life, ripped suddenly and violently away from her, even more viewers will turn against her. T&W 2 might want a Dannifer redux but they've shot themselves in the foot by killing Jack instead of letting him and Jennifer separate amicably and having him return to London.
I wonder if MR's possibly leaving means TIIC are sticking with Daniel/Nicole instead. Or if MR made her decision after learning there wouldn't be a Dannifer 2.0 after all. Either way, I can't say I'd be sorry to see this version of Jennifer leave. After the last two horrid years, the character needs a rest if she's to recover even a little of her lost luster. And I'd rather have Jack back first, anyway--preferably with amnesia.

If she does leave, then it makes no sense to kill Jack. He could have moved for a job and she followed in Sept.

I love Dicole's dynamic It makes Daniel more appealing. Maybe because he cares more than Nicole, and she's just kinda having sex. I love that, it makes me feel a little bit sorry for him. :)

Dacole are true magic together!!!! Just like EJami!!!
Should Daniel raise Nicole's baby instead of Rafe? Love Dacole!
While I want Nicole to have a baby, I really wish she would have one with someone that truly loves her. EJ's never treated Nicole as a priority and she deserves to have a baby with a guy that will love her & be the white knight she's been longing for.
Plus I can't take any more repetitive baby drama for EJ! I don't want to see anymore paternity tests, custody battles, kidnappings, eye cancer, or anything!!! EJ's been in Salem for 6 years & this is going to be his 3rd kid- ugh! Can't another guy father a baby!?!
If something happens to the Ejole baby, it would great to see an adoption storyline for Nicole! Ari would rock that storyline!!! I'm fine with Nicole having the baby as long as we don't have to endure Ejole fights about the baby.
But yes, Dacole is awesome, but I have to admit, I'm interested in a Rafe/Nicole pairing too!

The relationship with Dicole makes my skin crawl. There's nothing hot or sexy about a Doctor bedding another one of his patients, especially a pregnant one at that. I don't care how much chemistry Zucker and Christian have, nothing will take that ickiness factor away.
But then again Dicole is just one of many things that have turned this show into an unwatchable mess. :shithitfan: It's no wonder TomSell wanted to make this crap all a nightmare. :shame:

At least they are in the same league of attractiveness, wit and intelligence.
Seeing her with the other two just makes me feel ill. Like poor Nikki has somehow landed in the world of the neanderthals. The good guys are always going to have issues with her scheming ways... EJ and Brady embrace it.

And honestly, whether I like them or not, I believe the show will always ultimately go back to EJ and Sami. So I don't bother. Flings with other women and EJ I think could be interesting, but other than that, I probably wouldn't believe it based on the usual pattern.

Hey, I like the idea of Daniel being Nicole's white knight :wub: I just can't believe I care. I'm surprised too! I wasn't sure that I would like them due to the circumstances but I knew they had potential. To my surprise, the exceeded my expectations. I remember watching the bball episode and FF through some of it just to get to the Dicole scenes. Granted, most of if was the Keystone cops but that's saying something.
