They probably don't want to show/talk about/promote condoms at all cuz that would spoil all their future who's the daddy stories.

And Lord knows how much we all love them...

I remeber on GH a few years back they made sure to show a package of condoms when patrick/robin were having sex now granted robin is an HIV character so that might have had something to do with it

Couple chemistry is important and IA that everyone has a different vision of what "chemistry' is. I love DAYS couples, when they make a valiant run at create them. Over the years, I have enjoyed Lumi, Ejami and Safe and just like other pairings on the show, each time for different reasons. They've all had their ups and downs, lows and highs. For me, I think SL & writing has been key and that can either make it or break it. We all have our favs or preference of those who we think work better togther, other than when paired with someone else.

But lately, I am really put off by all the triangle SL stuff DAYS have been showing us over the last couple of years. Almost everyone has been in a triangle...and frankly it has become boring and redundant to watch. There are many other ways to create agnst and drama in life than always having ppl together and having someone wanting them at the same time. or characters that are with someone, when they want to be with someone else.

Everything MARDAR was triangles with different angles. STATE -Ian, CAFE- Austin. Dan/Jen/Jack. Chad/Abi/Mel/-Gabi as a quad. Safe- with Lumi on the side. etc.

No one was ever 'happy' and now there are almost no couples together on the whole freaking show. John & Mar and Magic. Everyone else is in a state of singleness. WTF is wrong with that picture? I do have to add that Wilson are together, but they really haven't had period of any happiness and Gabi and Nick was insta and I like them together... but really have zero impact as a destined pairing... BB is only on a short contract.
And now that Kristen is back, it does not look like John and Marlena will be happy either. The only happy couple, Magic, are barely shown!

Eric's Nicole self improvement - healing plan is not really endearing him to me.

Doesn't Victor have some swarthy charming illegitimate son who can come back to town and challenge him for his inheritance she can hook up with. (I'm thinking a beautiful mix of EJ and Phillip). Someone who can be all about her but encourage her to be underhanded and amusing.

And off topic I know Magic is almost the only couple left on the canvas but enough already she's killing him. I need a nice custody battle over Parker (I know everyone is sick of them but if its not EJ and Sami I assume its different) . I'm thinking Kate and Phillip (not necessarily having to be on screen) one side vs Maggie and Daniel on the other and Victor siding with Kate and Phillip. With Victor/Kate outing Daniel's paternity changing ways, grandaughter sleeping with ways etc and Maggie being outraged. Then once irrepairable damage is done to Maggie and Victors rellationship he can move on to bigger and better things.

PS I am happy for Sami to have this version of EJ ... ick.
If they were going to hook them up couldn't they at least have had the pre Daysaster version which had a little bit of spice to it.
Oh well maybe they will improve.... although I do hope his character is not going to consistantly stay this way ... such a loss.

I have been reading some nice discussions on this page about condom use and STI's on Days. That could be another breakout storylie. Someone getting an STI (I hope not Will or Sonny, that would be too cliche and borderline prejudice). We would have a good storyline, something to tune into besides the same old couples and love triangles.

Doesn't need to be an illegitimate son. How about one of Justin's other three boys? I'd especially like to see Alexander (whose bio mom was Angelica Deveraux), who has been mentioned but never seen. Victor essentially adopted Justin, and so Alexander could hit town and try and take over, creating chaos in the process.

Oh Nicole, your telling me someone who less then 9 months ago was a campaign manager doesn't have the money to rent her own apartment or a suite at a swanky hotel? And really Nicole's going to live in a church and work so soon after her son dying and having a nervous breakdown. I mean really these writers are so out of touch with reality, I just can't.
Still no funeral/memorial service or mention of one for Nicole's full term "miracle bady".What did they do,flush the baby down the toilet?They couldn't be bothered to write a few lines for Nicole about some sort of service for the baby.

Nope. they wanted any thought of that baby or her pregnancy out of people's minds.so they could move on with Nicole and Eric.

I've wanted Alex back for awhile I also think alex should feel resentment towards sonny because he feels his parents love him more and he was there bio child ect maybe Alex will even have a hard time accepting sonny being gay we've seen people have a hard time in releating to will but not releating in sonny.THeres all kinds of stuff they can do wth alex being who his mother is and maybe uncle victor is his mentor in wanting to be ruthless like him

Sigh this show will never get it. I personally would have much rather seen Nicole with a baby in her hands right now then have her lose everything and move in with the nuns all to have a romance with Eric.

I get the impression that a Nicole/Eric romantic pairing isn't going to happen that quickly.

Yes, but we are all still watching it, reading about it and posting about it all the time, so who's right really, us or them?
This has been my point for a while now. They have no reason to change things up, and I think they'll continue doing a rotation like they've been doing with bones here and there either until we shut up or the show is cancelled. We like to whine and complain and we happily accept any and all bones, so there's really no reason to do a good story, lol.
I'm not a big shipper but for a long time I did like the idea if EJ and Sami together but unless there is more profound discussion between the two about their sordid history I really don't care. I don't like the on/off schmoopy stupidness of their relationship(or any relationship for that matter).

I liked the idea of a sordid affair between the two because as a secret relationship they could have been smokin' and only semi-addressed their history. If they want a romantic relationship for these two anti-heroes it needs to loose the saccharin coating.

Actually I think that's what ruins most if these couples, the instantaneous nature of true love and happiness over the process of working through the challenges. It removes all drama and payoff.

Monday's show sounds like what the spoilers have been saying, Sami enjoys working with Ej, but is drawn toward Rafe. Same Same Same. We have seen that so many times.

It also sounds like a lot like what Galen said in October..we get some good (last week was good) and then we will have some bad ( tomorrow's show). The man does know what he's talking about!

To me, a very telling scene was when EJ was lying to Kristen telling her his plan to get closer to Sami was working. More manipulations by the Avon Lady...oh joy.....

For some reason this show likes to portray Nicole as always broke no matter how much money and jewelry we've seen EJ give her. They like to keep her as poor as a church mouse and now she'll really be one with Eric. Why couldn't they give her nice apartment? Gabi, Sonny and Chad all have a place to call home, but they have Nicole always needing to move in with someome. I guess they just like to keep her a state of always being needing and desperate. And someone mentioned they have Sami and EJ working at the Horton House and thought it was odd they weren't working at Sami's apartment and someone else suggested they had taken down the set that was Sami's apartment because she'll b eventually back at Rafe's loft, it'll be interesting to see if we ever see Sami back at her apartment. Frankly, I don't see how they could get around her not being there sometimes.

Poor as a church mouse but with fabulous shoes. At least the girl has her priorities straight.

I actually thought Nicole and Eric would interest me more than what they've done so far, maybe it will be interesting in the future? Bristen is the story that I find clearly is the best right now! And EJami Ejami they are topnotch and pulls me in as a viewer, but it is a big but? for unfortunately it's bland Rafe involved in this sl and pulls down the whole story to pure crap!
