IDK, I would have said it trumps it IF Ken had a tendency of telling the truth. As we all know he doesn't, soooo I'm sure they'll do Ejami the same way they've always done them. Sami will be thinking about someone else during the entire time I'm sure. Think of it this way they could have just continued Ejami post cliffhanger, the insertion of Safe and their recent ILYs was all unnecessary unless there was a reason, a plot point to them. I'd be really surprised if they show a mutual love between Ejami. It will all be one sided again on Ej's part. On the rest of the preview.... I like the Marlena trying to screw around with Kristen. I'm intrigued by the potential Eric/Nicole story I hate that AGAIN Lucas isn't mentioned where he should be, instead we get a Rafe mention instead. The fact that so many fans are clamoring for a story for lucas should tell them something.... Give the guy a love interest outside of Sami and write a good story Dammit!! Love how unpredictable the gabi getting pregnant was right! Shocking, lol |

So...what's the unexpected stuff that's going to happen in November? Because all I see is more of the same. The same boring, repetitive, done over and over again Groundhog Days stories that TomSell seem to adore. Maybe the unexpected is things that everyone's just loved so far...Jack dying, Nicole losing her baby, Dannifer, etc. :soapbox: |

I'm sure that TomSell will fail to impress me with the storyline, but....... For KC to have to come out & make that statement (cause you know he hated every minute of it) Warms the cockles of my cold dead heart. And, as much as I loathed his comments in the spring/summer of 2010, I knew that's where the story was headed. |

Glad I get to enjoy the Sonny and Will love scene before the baby drama starts. Though I bet it happens concurrently with them having sex the same time Gabi finds out she is pregnant :shrug: . I'll take it. I think the baby story does have a lot of potential. I love WilSon and Nabi so sounds good to me. Could be great material for all of them. But yeah sucks no Lucas mention in that all. Still wonder if it is Sami and Rafe that have the wedding and the drama comes out at their wedding about the baby. TFP Edited by michr544125, Oct 25 2012, 04:40 PM.

Some people have to learn the hard way. I don't believe they'll really going with ejami because if they were we wouldn't have Caroline soon telling Rafe that she hopes he and Sami will be back together by the time she gets back or Lucas just pimping Safe or Kristen lying to Sami to get her into EJ's orbit and not to mention Kate telling EJ why he would never be happy with Sami. They knew which way this show was going to go months ago for Nov sweeps and didn't lay down any of the usual groundwork for when you know a couple is coming.....you know everyone in town pimping them. |

Yes, that's why I said mostly Corday. I just think it's strange, when MarDar were hired they gave previews, did video interviews, got twitter, facebook, everything. Then Tomlin and Whitesell returns and Corday is back giving the previews. That doesn't mean I like the pimping MarDar did and Carlivati and Valentini do. But if would be nice to hear story previews from the people writing it. |

I don't really think that anything in this article is worth getting excited/upset over because next spring we will probably be reading about the next new team of Days writers and their new stories that will be the exact opposite of the stories we are reading about now. As for the couples, if your faves are not together now, no worries. Inevitably they will work their way back around to another turn again. There are no supercouples anymore and everyone is a fickle bed hopper. |

For me, here's the deal. This show is crap; everyone knows it is. Some of us still watch and others don't. We all still hang around here making fun/deriding/commenting/reminiscing about our show. We all watch what we want and FF the rest and we all enjoy different things. Having said that, I don't know how long EJami will last but I do believe we will get them again in some capacity. That doesn't mean that Safe won't have another shot or even Lumi. I think with GG saying things and with Bryan interviewing that Lucas still loves Sami... The merry-go-round will always continue because Days wants us all to watch. It doesn't work for everyone but some will still watch to catch their favorites. I will take what I can get. I don't personally believe GG knows that far out what is going to happen; I don't think any actor on the show does. EJami might not have sex now but I don't totally rule it out in the future. I'm just glad they will be sharing scenes again - and hopefully what seems like good scenes, aka, growing closer and all that jazz. I happen to think they are lovely no matter what and I honestly thought maybe Daysaster would be the last time but then again...I should have known they'd bring them back for awhile - they will do that because enough people clamor for them. I think I'll enjoy this while I can and then FF when Safe make a re-appearance and then Lumi... Who knows? If the show gets another renewal I might be able to wait for the merry-go-round to circle another time before cancellation! ;) |

Here's what Corday said last year about MarDar and the reboot (in SOD on November 15, 2011): "I think the writers did a good job with this [the reboot], but things will go at a much faster pace from mid-November into what I'm reading now, which is March. Stay tuned: Stakes will get much higher. After the first of the year...wow." We already know what happened in mid-November (grief sex) and we know what happened after the first of the year and leading into March -- which is when things really starting going woo-woo (Alice's secret, Pawn/Gina, Cafe/Safehouse, Daniel's pro-longed farewell for a temporary va-cay, and the beginning of Nicole's baby daddy deceptions) That is also when they put the ki-bosh on the PTSD storyline and slowed or stopped WilSon in favor of EJill. Corday may be selling, but we really, really shouldn't be buying. Caveat emptor! |

At least you can watch General Hospital to see Wally Kurth used properly. So glad he's going back there. |

I sure as hell hope not. The thing about John and Marlena is that (written in character), they have ALWAYS believed each other. They believe in each other, no matter what circumstance, "evidence" or other people say. So a) if John believes that Marlena was forced to do whatever it is, and b) doesn't care because of her history with Kristen (kidnappings, drugs, secret rooms, attempts at her life, almost killing her daughter, the list goes on), then I'll probably be able to accept whatever it is. But they'll use it as a plot point to push John and Marlena apart, and seriously, at this point, what the hell is going to tear them apart? The devil tried and didn't succeed. Eileen is playing it subtly that Kristen could turn on a dime, so I'll have no problem saying Kristen deserves more than anything Marlena could ever conjure up. Oh man, we had that spoiler about Brady, Kristen and the mugging. Marlena probably sets it up. Ridiculously out of character, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's where they go. She IS desperate, but she's smarter than a freaking mugging, so I hope it's something Marlena-like. Like, going to Stefano (who apparently everyone now knows is alive and well) and making a deal would be more Marlena-like. These people don't get Marlena at all. If pushed to the limits, she WILL attack, but it's always when pushed to the brink and it's always understandable in some way. |

Ken Corday, will you never learn the proper way to give spoilers? I don't care about your business strategy! |
