Sami/EJ: Sami and EJ grow closer as they start working together. Says Corday, "We're putting our lock, stock and barrel in those two."
Any fans of this couple believe it? Pardon me if I don't.
I'll have to see it to believe it.

But for the moment, I'm eating up KC having to force those words out like manna from heaven.

It's the little things. :laugh:

No mention of Rafe, Daniel, Jennifer.

Is this an alternate universe?

Rafe IS mentioned - in the Gabi/Nick/Will/Sonny blurb.

You're right.
Crap!

Personally, I think Ejami are much better than Safe. Mainly, because James Scott is a far more superior actor. Maybe Rafe and Chloe can hook up when she comes back to town. They'd be hot at least.

There is nothing in there that is remotely unexpected. If the show is going with Ejami then so be it, but actually go with them for goodness sake. Enough with the same old over and over again. Either make her totally into him or give it a rest already. I'm glad Kate is getting a story. Hopefully the under 25's being featured prominently will mean less Dannifer. It sucks that Lucas isn't mentioned in a story that he should be heavily involved in.

Yeah, I'm not really believing this.

I'll take it but I am reserving judgement.

Maybe if I know it's gonna happen I'll turn my TV on again; there's been nothing good to watch since they let Matt Ashford go along with some of the others.

Considering the show is now filming Valentine's Day episodes according to one of the younger cast members in a podcast interview this week, I would expect the scripts for part of March are being written right now. It wil be summer in Salem before it is Christmas in the real world.

Please write 4 Bryan Dattilo, Give him a love interest.

I think these are not all the previews, I'm sure there will be more to it then this. I'm not giving up hope on Lucas being in on this Gaby pregnant story. It will effect Lucas too, its his son. The writers really freaking suck donkey balls if they think for one minute I will watch Ej and Sami. I'd rather have all my teeth forcibly removed with out knock out meds then to have to watch that disgusting pair. I will still only watch clips of what I want on you tube. These suck. I can't wait to see the ratings for this utter bull shit!

I know.

For me I think I'm more giddy over the fact that KC had to utter those words....Lock....Stock....Barrel....Ejami thn any hope of a decent storyline.

When has TomSell given us anything that didn't suck?

But KC had to pimp Ejami.... :wub:

Same for me. The pro-ejami description was like my favorite dessert.

Knowing that KC uttered those words was like a million dollars raining down on said dessert.

It's just too far ahead. I'm sure there's reasons behind it all (money!) but still.

Ken Corday, your mid-March shit does not excite anyone. Its not good to be that far ahead! I want every story to have direction that can last that long, but this show has no means to change something that the audience hates until its too late the ratings take a nosedive. This is the same spiel was have gotten 100 times. By mid-March I would guarantee we have new writers coming in. Why does Corday lie to us so much? Even worse why does he lie to himself? Its just stupid.

As far as the actual spoilers...I like hearing about the Marlena/John/Kristen things. Its time for Marlena to stop treading water on this show so this should be great. Deidre has had great individual scenes with Matt Ashford, Chandler Massey, Joe Mascolo, Alison Sweeney, but they aren't stories, just scenes. I love that she FINALLY has a storyline. The more Kristen the better. I hope this is THE frontburner story.

I guess we are getting full on Dannifer since Nicole/Eric will be on the frontburner. I'm fine with that as long as Dannifer rot away on the backburner. I really don't need to ever see them again. Excited to see if Ari and Greg Vaughan have chemistry. I want to like Nicole again so badly!

They're putting everything into EJ/Sami again? Right now we have Sami/Rafe so here we fucking go again. EJ will use some underhanded tactics to get her to leave Rafe and then they will be exposed. Yawn. We literally JUST did this. Multiple times. Sami is such a gross character at this point. Just go away.

Listing Rafe instead of Lucas on that Gabi/Nick/Will part. The writing could not be more all over the wall for Lucas than it is. He is so gone as soon as Will/Sonny becomes acceptable to all of Salem. We would have heard about a new female being cast months ago if they were going to do anything with Lucas. So sad.

Beyond THRILLED to hear that Kate is finally getting another storyline. Now its like an event when Lauren Koslow is actually on my tv. I am really missing Kate. MarDar kinda overused her, but I need more of her than we are currently getting. Kristen vs. Kate could be crazy good. Looks like Stefano is staying off screen, I hate it! But hopefully he will come back eventually for some Stefano/Kristen scenes.

Have Gary Tomlin and Christopher Whitesell ever given an interview?
Honestly don't think Corday is big fans of theirs. I also think people request Corday and only get the writers if Kenny turns them down. But I have not seen a Tomlin interview in YEARS. I would love to read one just to see who he pimps and who he brings up on his own. Michael Logan needs to get on this, stat. I don't have any respect for Gary Tomlin as a writer, but I would be very intrigued to hear from him.

John/Marlena/Kristen: Kristen's return poses a threat to John and Marlena's relationship. John believes Kristen has changed and Marlena doesn't. As a result, Marlena resorts to some underhanded, "un-Marlena-like" tactics. Says Corday, "[Marlena] doesn't tell John she's doing it and sooner or later, that's the kind of thing that comes back to bite you. But she's doing it for the sake of her relationship with John and the audience will be rooting for her."
This sounds semi-interesting to me. I like that Marlena isn't just waiting around to play victim to whatever scheme Kristin cooks up.

Sami/EJ: Sami and EJ grow closer as they start working together. Says Corday, "We're putting our lock, stock and barrel in those two."
I'd be all for it, but I just don't buy that they're really going to commit to Ejami.

Quote:
 
Eric's Return: Eric returns to Salem just in time for Thanksgiving. Corday says they brought him back because they wanted another character in his age range on the show and they wanted to give Nicole a front-burner story.
I'm excited for this one - been wanting Eric back for awhile and GV is dreamy.

Quote:
 
Gabi/Nick/Will/Sonny: Gabi receives big news that not only affects her relationship with Nick, but also affects Sonny, Will, Rafe and Sami. Says Corday, "We'll be seeing a lot of the under-25 crowd, which in the past has always proved successful."
I'm all for this kind of story in the kids crowd, but they chose the wrong female character/actress to put at the center of it.

Quote:
 
Kate/Stefano: Kate receives divorce papers from Stefano. She has a big story on the horizon.
Yeah, just don't care.

Wabi baby putting an end to Safe would be wishful thinking, right?

And while I agree with the post above that James is the better actor, EJami doesn't work for me because of everything that's happened in the past. There's no way that EJami can be end game when neither of them really loves the other, & all they love is being able to get under each other's skin. Do they feel something for each other, sure, but it's not everlasting love, by any means!!

No. It was never successful. Allow me to give examples: Max and his nieces. Anything involving Melanie. Mia and her baby. Chad as a DiMera. Need I continue?

But, if you want me to continue watching (and I'm barely watching as it is), here's some advice: for once, make the more talented actress the lead heroine. You have Kate Mansi. Utilize her. Not Banus.
