Pretty rich to see MarMar warning EJ not to break her daugter's heart. Hm. Wasn't her advice to Carrie to go ahead and steal Rafe away from Sami, ergo, breaking her heart?
Bah. She's become such a hag that the only time I can stand her anymore is when she's getting schooled by Kristin.
Sami is a hag. Marlena is a heroine. Marlena >>>> Sami any day of the week!
The great thing about soaps is that one person's hag is another person's heroine. I think Marlena's supposed to be a heroine, but she doesn't always act like one, which IMO makes her story infinitely more interesting. Marlena is a likeable heroine 90% of the time....full of warmth, compassion,and grace even towards those who have purposely tried to destroy her in the past.
Sami is a bitter, miserable bitch who does shitty things to her mother and other members of her family for her own selfish benefit, about 70% of the time. And 30% of the time she tries to put her unfounded, unwarranted bitterness towards her mother and other family members aside.
Sami could only hope to one day be like her mother. Maybe if she'd stop acting like a bitch towards her, the mom/daughter relationship would improve.

LOL. Plus, isn't the point of EJ smiling in ALL his scenes with EVERBODY (even including Caroline and Marlena) supposed to demonstrate that he's super happy now because he's with Sami?? I mean, hell, we even have Johnny pimpin' how freakin' happy EJ is nowadays. Personally, I'm still waiting for him to break out in a little dance in HTS to You Make My Dreams Come True.
Yep. Not even seeing Marlena, Brady or Nicole brought him down. He still had a pep in his step and a smile on his face. The man is in love and just had desk sex with the woman of his dreams. :wub: I'm surprised he hasn't :cart: all over Salem yet.
I guess Sami has made EJ a little light in the loafers. So I guess showtunes would be the natural progression. Perhaps he feels like he's 16 going on 17? Do we really want to hear Sami sing? A fanwanked EJ/Chloe pairing (imagine the opera! imagine the pretty!) sounds better and better.

Marlena. Marlena. Marlena. :shame: This supercilious hag is a far cry from the chick who cheated on her husband and screwed guys on desks. I liked the latter a lot better. She wasn't as judgmental, hypocritical, condescending, inconsistent, and botoxed. I do like how it's biting her in the ass with the ever awesome Kristen though! Mar's painful convo with EJ was awesomely enfuriating. She wants Sami to be happy but not with the adoring man she loves and with whom she shares two children. Oooooooooooookay, Doc. :bs: Loved Deidre's glasses though! AZ was on her A game today. She looked gorgeous and Nicole got to pull out a few snotty and hilar quips at EJ in passing just like pre-EJ Nicole would have. Win! Win! Nikki, EJ and Sami may have nowhere to go but up from where they were at but the same goes for you, girlfriend. Keep your new attitude and go out and get your holy man!Nu-Syd is a cutie pie. Nice casting. I have no idea why but I love Johnny, Syd, and Allie's babysitter. That girl is adorbs!
Would you want your daughter to be married to a man who raped your daughter and tormented your family no matter how much he has changed. I commend her for accepting Lucas after what he and Kate did to Sami.
Marlena's a rape victim, if she ever cheerleads Ejami, I'll be seriously disappointed. EJ also shot to kill John, after John survived he forced Kayla to take his liver without help in a dirty warehouse which he barely survived. Just recently he nearly got Marlena's entire family gunned down framing John, and tried to put him in prison. Why the hell should Marlena welcome him with open arms?

Bah. She's become such a hag that the only time I can stand her anymore is when she's getting schooled by Kristin.
No, that wasn't her advice to Carrie. What she basically said to Carrie was that she loved her and she better think long and hard before pursuing a relationship with Rafe because it would hurt a lot of people, but that she understood that sometimes the heart wants what it wants. Not to mention that Marlena didn't know anything about Rafe and Carrie's relationship unti after the reveal of the EJ/Sami notdeadbabysex and after Rafe had already left Sami. So the circumstances were vastly different. I don't care what the circumstances; if I ever say anything other than, "LEAVE YOUR SISTER'S HUSBAND ALONE!" to a daughter contemplating cheating on her own husband with her sister's estranged husband, I will know that I have failed as a mother. Jeesh, I get that it's a soap and all, but no matter the circumstances, Rafe was Sami's HUSBAND and MarMar wasn't acting much like a mother hen . . . except to Carrie.
Gah. I miss Carrie a lot; she was so annoyingly perfect and easy to hate and I loved the Brady girls love/hate dynamic.

She never did that with Sami and Austin either so it's not a Carrie favoritism thing.

I miss Carrie a lot; she was so annoyingly perfect and easy to hate and I loved the Brady girls love/hate dynamic. And Rafe and Sami were separated because she had cheated on him. And if my mother ever tried to run my life and issue ultimatums, I know she has failed me as a mother. Marlena didn't advocate Carrie's potential action and warned her of how many people she would hurt. But she also said she loved Carrie and that wouldn't change. Pretty much the kind of thing I think a good mother would say.
And, as was pointed out, she didn't tell Sami to stay away from Austin either.

He truly hasn't smiled like that in a long time....
At least since he fucked Sami on the desk.
LOL. Plus, isn't the point of EJ smiling in ALL his scenes with EVERBODY (even including Caroline and Marlena) supposed to demonstrate that he's super happy now because he's with Sami?? I mean, hell, we even have Johnny pimpin' how freakin' happy EJ is nowadays. Personally, I'm still waiting for him to break out in a little dance in HTS to You Make My Dreams Come True.
Meh. That's just JS's acting. He smirks all the time even when he was not with Sami. I've watched that ejole scene eight times and it still makes absolutely no sense to me. Weird James acting choices have me totally baffled.
