Ok, so how about EJ has this subtle smirk as he's telling her he can't hold on and the audience is left wondering if he really did intend to kill Sami. That would be good. There has been dialog where EJ is threatening Willigan's Mommie Dearest. TomSell did shock...some times it didnt make sense and was for the sake of plot, but AT LEAST SOMETHING HAPPENED! Oh, If I cant have my dream of really killing Sami, then can she be in a coma for as long as Don Craig went to mail that letter? Edited by Liz<3Days, Jul 18 2012, 10:49 PM.

Typos? I thought you were just letting us know you are so excited about ED's return that you are planning on quitting your job so you can watch her. BTW, welcome back. I missed your comments (except when you make disparaging remarks about my flawless ship). |

Much prefers sweevil, snarky EJ over Father Figure Fucktard Eejiot.

Yeah...I'm not sure she's seen that just yet. And for the record, I totally forgave the typos because I was assuming you were still roughing it in the bushes in a country far, far away. If I had realized it was just a regular old auto correct fail I'd have been on it like a fat kid on a Smartie. |

I love the sound of these cliffhanger spoilers. I cannot wait to see JS's favorite scenes play out; him and AS are gonna rock! |

I had overlooked this until just now, but there is a note in August: "Square has been cleaned up from explosions"....so indeed HTS does suffer some (off-camera?) damage, but all is well in a few weeks! |

Jason, I've got a question... The info you get, is it just scene setups/characters/props etc or do you get dialogue as well? |

I'm finding it hard to keep my ship going, pic or no pic. I'm very irritated with days right now. I feel like they might could have a decent show if they'd stop for a minute and focus on characterization. Every thirty something character is interchangeable. That's not a good thing. There's nothing special about any of them. Nothing makes any of them stand out. They added three "new" ones last September and they'll all be gone by the time this crap finishes playing out and we'll once again be back to the same five interchangeable, not special characters. The only characters who have their own personalities are supporting or extras. They're never going to fix the real problem. They'll just keep changing the background. I'm to the point where I think elope would be just as interesting as Brady/Hope or Rafe/Hope because they'd all be the same generic couple. I hope that when a decision comes about a renewal that it comes with a new writer regardless of whether it's renewed or not. Someone who has the balls to make things actually happen to the main characters. I'm not interested in any fanbases crumbs. (meanwhile fanbase was just autocorrected to fan asses and fantasies. I'll keep my commentary on that to myself, but I will say that it seems Paolo the iPad finally gets me) |

You really think he'll drop her on purpose? So... They are promoting the hell out of EJami as a romantic pairing to get people to tune in and watch EJ drop Sami to her death? These NBC and Sony guys are sure amateurs in the biz if they think you're supposed to spend tens, or even hundreds of thousands of dollars promoting a non couple, or another couples angst. They mislead the viewers they want to gain, by making them think they are getting EJami romance, then EJ actually kills Sami to be with a woman they don't even put him in scenes with, let alone promote him with. No way. They wouldn't spend money on EJami, or air scenes like today's if TomSel were going to flip them on a dime come 3pm next Friday. I could be wrong about this, but I'm not, because it makes rational sense.

It varies. Sometimes scripts, sometimes not. Back in the "old days", I would post the entire script a month in advance (back then they only taped a month or so in advance). But I've learned it's best to not spoil too much too soon!! Plus it was quite tedious typing up that 80-85 page Carrie/Mike goodbye script from 1999. The Internet was still pretty new back then, so I'm not sure how many people actually got to read it a month early at my site! |

While I think you're right story wise, why are we suddenly talking about TiIC like they're rational beings? They got their nicknames for a reason, and that reason hasn't changed just because it's suddenly in ejamis favor. |

I was hoping major entertainment corporations like NBC and Sony, who seem to have suddenly developed a real intetest in the running of the show, were a bit more savvy with their dollars than Corday and the trained monkey brigade. Edited by Shadow, Jul 18 2012, 11:30 PM.

Sony and NBC are both dying brands. One is expected to disappear soon. They're no better at making decisions or handling money than Corday. They're a part of the trained monkey brigade. Their influence hasn't helped before. This is not the first time they've interfered. I personally think their influence in 2004 is one of the things that's led to the mess we have today. All the things you're saying they wouldn't do, they've done before. This is a cycle Days has been stuck in for decades. It's not different this time. |

I would love it if as he holds on to her after the first explosion while thinking if I'mmo die at least let me get this off my chest.....while EJ struggles to get a firm grip....she cries out ILY to which he pulls her up slightly so she's close enough to see the smirk on his face and close enough to hear him say "this is for my wife and unborn child" and releases her as we watch the utter shock on her face that Elvis could ever do such a thing (he's thinking, b*itch you put a bullet in my brain, just returning the favour) as she plunges deeper into that black hole so very much like her character, while Will and/or Roman scream out variations of NOOOOOOO or SAMIIIIIIIIII or MOMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!! Sweet! This is my 2c.....Drop her Elvis, DROP THAT COW! Edited by NikiLani, Jul 18 2012, 11:52 PM.
