I have so many sarcastic comments on the edge of my tongue about this last page, but I no longer trust y'all not to take me seriously. Don't talk about the fanbases. You know what it leads to. Besides, while I think online numbers are relevant, they're obviously not the only thing that counts. There's one character (that I won't name) that the idea that she might even have one fan absolutely stupefies me, but apparently her portrayer knows of some fans, so they must exist somewhere.
I still like Gabi/Camilla.

EJ may try to save Sami in the cliffhanger, but Rafe will probably be the one to actually save her. Yep, Safe is on the way! Popcorn! Popcorn!
how is he supposed to do that when GG will be offscreen!

GG no where around :cheer:
Rafe "My hero" Hernandez can do anything.Don't under estimate him.

Oh I am almost certain Rafe and Sami are far from over since GT is back. But I just think they missed the boat with the character of Rafe, they so should have made him go BSC after finding out Sami slept with Ej. They should make him dark(similar to Rafe2 but w/o being such an idiot). I think the show needs a few more bad guys instead of Ej. It would also give GG a chance to show the world he can make more than one facial expression!
The fact that Rafe 2 was a sleezy idiot made me like him.

I did like today's episode with the exception of a few parts:
RAFE AND HIS ANNOYING SISTER

Rafe flashback to Sami, has to be from GT, even though I saw Mar/dar were still credited with writing this episode, it screams some SAFE pimping. I don't think Days will ever learn that the majority of the viewers don't like Sami with Rafe. Just look @ the days FB recently when they asked who Sami's soulmate is. Very few of the answers were Rafe, actually more people said Sami herself than Rafe. I can see that there will be a rekindle of SAFE later down the road and that hurts my heart, eyeballs, brain, just everything on me hurts thinking of even one more second of those 2.

Gaby- You are your brother's sister.

Sami is super adorable today with her little pink blazer jacket and cute hairdo. I really liked her and Will's conversation. LOVED the Ejami scenes as well, Ej breaking that board was hilarious.

Melanie is really playing that Andrew, she was pretty good today and I am starting to like that crazy ass Andrew.
Not meaning to be rude or mean, but how do you know that the majority of viewers don't want Sami with Rafe? Unless you or someone has conducted a scientifically based survey of the millions of fans who watch Days every week, that is just your opinion. Only a small percentage of fans actually belong to message/fan boards and post there. Same with online surveys, which can easily be spammed in many cases.
I agree! It's like people say there are ejami fans out there--I have yet to meet one and I have been to a few events.

Also there is NO way anyone can say Galen isn't popular. He is totally swamped with fans when he goes to the events.

I do think the flashbacks were put in by GT for his buddy Galen and the fact that he is committed to them as a couple. I hope he still gives us Lumi's a chance. I want to see a Safe and LUMI triangle so badly!

Lumi/Safe2012
Wow that is really interesting that at all the events you have been to you have never met an Ejami fan :wow:
Been to lots if events and have met & hung out with all different fanbases including Ejami's , Safe's, Bricole's,
Lumi's, Danloe's , Phloe's and the list goes on & on
But yes only a small percentage of fans are on-line & post on message boards, Heck at evenys I have
been to lots of people loved Mel, Daniel & Gabi LOL

You know, Galen really looked like he was phoning it in today to me. He got a new hair cut or something, and it looked weird, and he just didn't look like he was into the scenes with Christie.
I'm not sure how you can distinguish GG phoning it in from his regular performance, lol. It's all a bunch :huh1: to me.
no, it's not :huh1: . it's :mellow: . Get it right, Tom.
LOL. See, that much be the minor differences that you and Gail are picking up on. :huh1: looks the same as :mellow: to me. Subtlety is lost on me.

Even if Rafe/Sami are on the way back together I think it's a mistake to start this back up so quickly, when Lucas is still in the story. Too many men.

Rafe could be in the very next show, just coming back from his trip and saving all of Salem.
:cheer: :cheer: :cheer: THAT! :cheer: :cheer:
Hi Vicki! I'm fairly new to the board and trying to get to know everyone. I signed up years ago but never really posted much and I just started enjoying the show again so I decided to come on and start posting. :) I see that you are a big Rafe fan, but are you a Safe fan or a Lumi fan? Your banner is Lumi but your comments seem to be for Safe? Or are you just a fan of any couple BUT EJami? Which is fine, I'm just confused. Anyway, I'm sure you can tell by my comments that I'm an EJami fan, but I try to appreciate different viewpoints and usually enjoy reading other people's specs and views on the show. Anyway, nice to meet you! :wave:

ETA: Sorry for spelling your name wrong! Vicky...got it! ;)

But when has Sami recently chosen someone stable...oh yeah Rafe.

I also think it would be rushing if they got together so quickly. But its also far past time that Rafe and Sami acknowledged each other. What MarDar loved to do is break up couples and not have them share scenes for months. Then theyll get one scene and another month of ignoring each other. Its not angst, its isolation.

I think SAFE need to be start sharing scenes, not romantic, just friendly, like "how are you," type stuff. Then have a story where they have to be together for longer periods of time. Then they finally talk things out. Then they make up and little Rafela or Samuel on the way!

See how :huh1: has a quizzical expression? Or to be more to the point - an expression, period? I do like that representation because of the eyebrows, though.

pretty much.

Quite frankly I do not want to see Sami going back to being a dud attached to Unibrow; we have had enough hero worship to last till the end of this show. Sami is coming into her own and she needs to stay that way.

Besides, EJ is the person that Sami has proven that no matter what she will not stay away from, no matter how perfect the others are, lol.......Rafe would do well to go find Emily haha because quite frankly nothing will ever be enough!

I don't know. Caroline is getting so old. It seems mean to make her watch another kid... ;)

I said the same thing, (not that I WANT Sami and Rafe together...ewww)...BUT, right now there is no need for them to be in each other's orbit and they can't say it's for the kids, so Days would need to come up with some reason for them to interact if Safe were going to be reunited. Just throwing them back together would be hard because there is really no reason for them to interact at this point. Lumi and EJami always have an "in" because they share kids. Although I'm surprised Rafe didn't try to get visitation rights on Lucas' and EJ's kids seeing as how he LOVES other men's children! lol

Actually, I want them in each other's orbit. That's why I brought up how MarDar isolated couples so they wouldnt interact.

Rafe was visiting the kids and that was dropped. Sami can always say that Johnny misses him. He could say that he'll come over and visit. There...now you have them sharing scenes, back in their orbit.

As for another kid, they can easily make SYDOLE happened or Johnny can be Lucas' kid...problem solved. I think GT was dying to give SAFE a kid. Sami has just too many.

There is plenty of reason for them to interact. They are in the middle of a divorce and have 4 years of history together as a couple. He has a bond with his her kids. If they are not able to work it out, at least they need to gain some closure so that both can move on to something else. Every good story needs a beginning, middle and end.

when your bond is derived based on ridiculous circumstances the way Rafe's was done with EJ''s children, there is no foundation to build on. EJ is back in his kids life, their is no more BS of 'protecting' the kids from EJ and EJ is not going to be replaced by a piss poor replacement!

The entire SAFE dynamic was built on saving Sami from the big bad wolf EJ, all of that became null and void the moment Sami found herself at the DiMansion in November 2011.

Johnny being Lucas' still makes him Sami's, so how exactly does that solve her too many kids problem and god forbid they take Sydney away, EJAMI still had a kid, so we will be off to find her! This seems to be more about the perceived threat of EJAMI's kids than anything else JMO!

None of what happened takes away from the fact that Rafe was a stepfather to these kids and, like it or not, there is a bond between them. Ej is their father and he always will be. But it is possible for children to also have a loving relationship with their stepfather. It has nothing to do with him being a "hero" or protecting them from Ej. They simply care for each other and it is difficult for children to have someone like that just disappear from their lives.
