If we're talking about Chloe and wasted chemistry - they totally blew it with Chloe and Philip. During the ONS storyline, they should have had Phloe falling back in love, but fighting against it because he was technically her son-in-law and because they were committed to their relationships, and then having them find out that Parker was Philip's (which I will always be grateful for, because they hired some of the cutest dimpled babies ever) and going from there.

Instead they were obsessed with Dan/Melanie respectively, making Chloe want to kill herself and be a prostitute and Philip grow really ugly hair.

If she's on her way back, I want Philip and baby Parker on their way back too.

Sami and Susan were both a part of Marlena's wedding to John that didn't happen.
Right - that was the first Ejami scene. When Marlena was choosing a wedding gown, Sami was standing next to the stroller with the baby in it.
lol, i also think there's a scene on youtube with Susan, EJ, Austin & Will, & i think Austin's holding baby EJ at one point :P

We are heading into the explosion scenes and they do not disappoint!! The explosions were real and extraordinary care was taken for everyone's safety. I think the photos, although wonderful, still don't capture the intensity of the actual scenes. Look closely at Lauren's hair in this shot. WOW!! Make sure you're tuned in to see all the excitement!!

http://ow.ly/i/NJ53 watch today and tomorrows #days cliffhangers before the Olympics! @melissa_reeves and I have a big surprise for you!xo

I don't care unless the surprise is that Matt Ashford has been rehired and Jack isn't dead.

I think the reason the idea of Jennifer/Brady bothers me (I mean, aside from the fact that it just sucks that, despite there being great story potential for Jennifer and her soulmate, Jack, we didn't get that, but they'll keep her around for some other sub par pairing) is how much a part of Jack and Jennifer's story Isabella was. That just makes the fact that Jennifer could have held baby Brady glaring or ignores Isabella and Jack's friendship. I hate that.

Does anyone remember the name of the thread here that was about all the drama, gossip, and rumors from over the years about DAYS behind the scenes/backstage?

Okay, so I'm reading your responses and realizing I'm wrong. But I'm also pretty horrified. "A little weird" doesn't begin to cover it, imo. So how are they going to handle this mess now that Susan (more than likely) is back? Horrible, horrible stuff to contemplate.

Back to the topic at hand, Brady has talked a lot about his mother Isabella in the last few months. And they just had the Patrick-Abby cradle-robbing story that upset Jennifer. So I still don't think a much-younger-Brady paired with older-widow-and-mother-of-two-children-who-are-not-that-much-younger-than-him-Jennifer is in any way appealing. Even if the show had good writers who could handle it with sensitivity, it's still not a good enough reason to kill off Jack in order to force Jennifer into yet another shallow sexual tryst.

I would like to think they'll just have the two become friends. But this show doesn't do that. When there are so other many more palatable (and more entertaining) ways to go, it's amazing that Days consistently seems to choose the most sordid, sleazy option -- and they still manage to make that boring and lame. How can we possibly expect that Brady-Jennifer will fare any better in the writing than Bradison or Dannifer? Really?!

Eric Martsolf was interviewed for an article I just read in a soap publication. He said there will be unexpected pairings after the cliffhanger, and that he will be working a lot with someone he hasn't before. I think those Brady/Jennifer rumors might be true.
Jennifer and Brady would be better than Dannifer. However, I would have a hard time with it since I was watching the show when Jen and Isabella were pregnant at the same time with Abby and Brady.
Yeah that gives it a major ewww factor (not to mention Isabella was Jennifer's roommate and Jack's best friend). I understand what you're saying about better than Dannifer but that should not be a reason for a pairing. Anything at this point would be better than them but doesn't make it acceptable to kill Jack to make it happen (which is what they're doing). I wouldn't even care if they wrote a slow build relationship it's still not right.
For those reasons alone, I do not see a romantic pairing for Brady and Jennifer. Perhaps Jennifer hits the sauce and Brady joins her to get over their pain and loss. Jennifer needs something to give her character more personality. Jennifer needs to get some flaws, I can no longer stand her perfectness.
There was no reason to kill Jack to put Jennifer with someone else. Its could have been so easy for the writers to separate them. Even now that they are together, it's nothing like it used to be, and I don't want Jack with Jennifer anymore.

I want to love the character of Brady, but EM has rarely drawn me in. KL did at times, particularly with early Broe, and even Bricole, and on a non-romantic note, I loved him with Belle, and he had a better father/son vibe with John. It may be that the writing for EM has been worse, but I don't feel the 'love' feeling I should have for John's son with EM that I did with KL. I feel like EM and MR together will be incredibly boring. She was cute and sweet when she was a child actress. Jack elevated her, but her acting is still often too ingenue-ish for me. Before Jack even came back I didn't like her with Daniel. I don't see her playing off well against Brady. MA was interesting with anyone. I think MR needs a strong partner to carry her.

The writers may win me back, but I have trouble watching Jennifer anymore.

So what is KM trying to say? There was no doubt in the fans minds', that Abby would be the one in jeopardy, unless Jennifer is also badly injured and Jack has to make a choice as to who he should save 1st. Child before wife?
Maybe. Jennifer does have a stunt double and Jack doesn't, so maybe Jack has to make a choice. And knowing the writers, they could always use his choice as a reason to justify Jenn moving onto another man quickly :huh: I wonder why she says Melissa and she have a surprise for viewers and not MA as well. Interesting.
Any parent would choose child first. If me and my daughter were both hanging off a cliff and my hubs could only save one of us, it better be her over me. I would choose her, he would choose her. Without question.

I have no idea what kind of surprise KM and MR could have though.... weird
All I can think of is what a great story it would be if Jack did have to choose between Jennifer and Abby, and he vainly tried to save both but still lost Jennifer. MA would have been amazing grieving, dealing with that angst... /sigh...

Do you think the actors get paid extra for all of the PR too? Do they even have a PR department anymore? :shame:

Unexpected Ending Ahead

Sarah Brown exits on August 15th and according to Eric Marsolf (Brady) Her on screen beau doesn't waste much time getting involved with someone new

Thanks, though how in the world does "someone new" point to Jennifer? I feel like I'm missing something here.

Maybe someone 'new' for Brady? As if he's never been with Jenn? Didn't we get something from Missy Reeves via a tweet suggesting that they were going back to Dannifer?

not saying it is Jen but when I read the article I interpreted it to be someone new to him as in they have never been in a relationship before as opposed to someone new on show.
