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.
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.
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.
Sami's apartment set was up when the Deidre Hall segment for Jeff Probst's show was taped.

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.
I agree with much of this. I'm still sucked in fairly easily by decent EJami scenes and although I've yet to see the scenes for today's show they sound good. However, this is far from my preferred story for EJami. My concern is TPTB feel that in order to go with EJami they have to change EJ into a dull as dishwater Brady wanna-be instead of having Sami embrace her legendary vixen side. A big part of the allure of EJami for me in the beginning was both characters were fun villains. Sami hasn't been a villain in ages, and EJ's villain skills have been seriously muted. I'd have no problem watching EJami wreak havoc on the people around them while still having one another's back. (and front ;) ) Unfortunately, I've given up hope we'll ever see them go there.

Ha Ha @ Daniel's tremors being permanent. Saying that in Salem means it will eventually be proven to be untrue.

Daniel plays mad good. He made Nicole cry... he's such an ass.
I am loving this soft and concerned side of Nicole...Even if it over Dr. Dan.. she is a little missled right now... but I see that it is fitting to her character. I think that Dicole scene was played well, it was more real and not so contrived like some of the other crap.

I guess Nicole is another woman he's done with so he threw her out on her ass.

LMFAO... Daniel thinks he's not just 'pretty face' and that he does have a brain in his hard head. I was thinking this line was something more like Jennifer would say.....not the self-absorb, egotistical and now vain Dr. Humper.

Looks like Dr. Dan has started a drinking habit... it seems a little out of character.
Was he a drinker before over the last 4 years?

Yet later this week we'll have Nicole chase him to an island after the way he talked to her. I really hope Chloe comes back to put the screws to him.

I'm really trying to see what everyone else seems to see with Eric and Nicole, but they're just not doing it for me. I found their scenes today boring. I really want to like them!

Just caught the last 5 minutes of Days. The Bristen scenes were HOT! I officially love them. Although the music was so cheesey I started laughing out. :laugh:

Eric hot and sweaty in his bed scene.... mmmmm, at least TomSell gave their new characters places to live.....I still laugh at the fact Jack was on screen for over 8 months and we were never once shown his nightmares or nights demon in his place.... of course we all belived he slept in a car or something to that effect... I guess 2 thumbs up for TomSell to give Eric and Kristen bedrooms. I don't think we'll see Nick's bedroom.... since he's living, is it in the Kiriakas mansion?

I get the impression that a Nicole/Eric romantic pairing isn't going to happen that quickly.
Maybe they are just waiting for her to have her six week post partum check up before they start turning up the heat.

(although it doesn't appear that anyone remembers she's just had a baby)

Yep, it's all forgotten that she had a still born a short while ago. I don't get these writers sometimes. it's not like these little details are impossible to remember. i get that we can't be stagnant with characters and the dialogue but something as important as this should not be brushed aside so callously.

EJami are so dumb. Along with Dannifer they're the show's weakest links. I get second-hand embarrassment watching them.

I thought the Sami and Ej scenes were some of the worst I've seen. I don't know if Ali and James felt pressure to make them into something and therefore overplayed the moments but they came off phoney and forced to me. 'Hey everybody, look at the fun we're having!' Positioning them on the floor in her office and the other moment of Sami hopping all around grabbing at a file didn't help matters. None of it felt honest.

I'm really dreading more of Jolly Old Ej and Sami the Twit, but know the deal is done and suffer I must. :shame:

I thought Will did a great job of looking appalled by the idea of giving up claim to his baby and how he also seems to have cottoned on to what a freak Nick is being. I didn't like that Gabi was so wimpy on her stance. Is she giving the idea of lying to her child for the rest of his/her life any real thought at all? I can't believe she wouldn't struggle with it more. Her nonchalant weakness is annoying.

Yay that we are finally getting a glimpse of Eric's back story. They need to liven this dude up.

I'm so over any and all Nicole/Daniel scenes. Let it go!

Did Jennifer and Daniel have scenes together? I think my mind wandered off at that time.

Brady you are sooo gullible, but I thoroughly enjoyed the romp. I must admit I did laugh through a lot of it.

Nicole is just a hot mess.

LOL. Nick sure made Will look like a patheic little boy.

I wish they would stop dressing Sami in those ridiculous tight outfits.

I'm loving Nick and Kristen.

IA Will look like a pathetic and whiny little boy. Sure some can say Nick was being forceful, demanding etc but what he was saying was true. If Will wants to claim this child now is the time to do it. Will is too wishywashy for me. I don't feel any empathy for him at all.

I thought Gabi is being quite fair/considerate to Will. Despite how she feels about Nick she won't do this without considering Will's feelings too.

Time to send him back to EJ school - claim the baby 101. (JOKE)


PS What is the piece of writing under the profile picture that some posters have called? and where to you go to add it?
My Bring on Autumn campaign is a bit vague without it.

I couldn't even take him serious. All he did was smirk and look stupid through the whole convo with with Nick and Gabbi. No wonder Nick laid into his behind. He was telling the truth.
