So EJabby is just EJami without the baggage and a stupid 50 Shades overtone. Nah, I'll pass. I hate Abby and putting her front and center does nothing for me.

This is getting a lot of attention anyway. I haven't seen it, but I saw the hubbub. So it's got shock value working for it, but that's never been my favorite writing technique, though I don't know, maybe there will be more than that to it. But I hate that you can't ever feel like there's a rooting couple with this show anymore. (Jerks hosed my JnJ for utter, fetching garbage!) For a while I really liked EJami, but there's always been too much switching it up with them for me to keep caring. I don't know, maybe Ericole is a rooting couple now. I guess, those who are loving EJabby, enjoy the moment!
I was full-on with the whole "I'm not watching if I don't get what I want" a while ago (you can look at my pic & see who I'm referring to. But as I read more and listened to other fans more, I realized that there are rootable couples/characters - now that John is returning, I'm ecstatic for Jarlena of course. But I also like Eric & Nicole - Ari is just really shining and the nicer side of Nicole is a refreshing change of pace. Plus Greg Vaughan...woof!! Lucas & Sheryl have some good chemistry and with her arrival, it lends more backstory to Jordan, coupled with GG's gig tweet, it makes you wonder who Jordan will end up with. I'm actually looking forward to single Hope as well, although I have a feeling she won't be single for too long and that kind of sucks cause seeing her as a single-working-mom might have been interesting, given the shenannigans that Ciara is capable of. As far as JnJ being given up for the pukefest that is Dannifer...I just can't. I want both Dan and Jen killed off in spectacular fashion and Jack returning to Salem to be a dad - not just a father - to his kids. There was a LOT of room for a good PTSD storyline with him as well.

So, it's not all about EJ and Sami - and while I'm no fan of theirs, I know it's rough for their fans to see what the pair is going through. You gotta either hang in there & find other ships to sail or bid it all adieu... I made my choice & I'm stickin around and probably making an ass of myself cause I don't know much of the history of the show, but it's all good as far as I'm concerned as long as Days is around for a few more years at least, the fucked up lives of Salemites will serve as a reminder to me that my life isn't as bad as it seems. :cheers:

And ice cream cones, Mer. Don't forget the ice cream cones.

I hear you on the Abby issue. The last thing I wanted was a storyline that gave me more Abby. And it's a totally skeevy storyline, but at least it provides a bunch of snark material. I'm just hoping it airs on opposite days from Ericole so I can at least enjoy the show half the time.

Yeah, I don't think there will be double dipping either. He's already done that once with Taylor/Nicole, so no need to play that plot point again. There are other more important loose ends to tie up first.
I also think that ejabby has a much longer shelf life than some are expecting, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see. I have to say that I'm loving the fact that Days keeps the spoilers on supreme lockdown these days.

EJ wasnīt double dipping with Nicole/Taylor he stop sleeping with Nicole once he started sleeping with Taylor. Itīs already spoiled that Sami will recommit to EJ which means they will have sex again, so if he continues to sleep with Abby also it must mean double dipping.
That doesn't necessarily mean that they will be sleeping together. If Sami is able to remain engaged while not fulfilling conjugal "duties", then EJ should be able to plausibly do that for a while as well. Sami doesn't call all the shots, and frankly if my husband did something like that to me (for whatever reason), and then came to me all ready for things to be hunky dory because he wants them to be that way, I'd need a few minutes to decide that it's all honky dory for me too.

Is that the direction things will be going in?
I would say that the fans are always so surprisingly spot on. They can expect that this isn't something that's going to fade quickly. This is something that's really shaken things up for the both of them. Abigail goes places that she never thought possible with EJ in very many ways.

*SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*

EJABBY is happening people....

BRING! IT! ON!
Wow Mitch, I'm trying to remember if I've ever heard you squee before. LOLOL.

So...I'll JOIN YOU!!!! *SQUEEEEEEEEE*****
I'll trump that with a OOOOOOOOHHHHHHH! EEEEEEEEEHHHHHH!!
Yes, yes, yes.... I guess it's Sami the fiance and Abby the mistress. EJ Dimera and his love affair with a Horton? Lucas and Steve Johnson's niece??? OH YEAH!!!

Can they get a love shack? Sorry Momma Jen, hahaha!

PS. no baby, please!!

^^^ EJ is going to be having double-dippin' sex really soon, I can guarantee that. I hope he doesn't forget which safe word goes with which woman.
OMG this is hilarious!!! You know this is going to happen right? lol It will be the equivalent to EJ calling out the wrong name in the elevator or just have him flat out say the wrong name while with Sami. They are not going to miss an opportunity.lol
OH PLEASE Let EJ call Sami, Abby!! OMG

I've been there, wishing the couple stories you want to see are on opposite days of the people you don't, now, for me, it's any eppy that's not Jen & Dan, ewww!

There is also the chance that Ej's guilt will drive him to deny Sami wanting to sleep with him again, with the excuse that 'we'll wait till after the wedding'....because well....it's his way of 'thanking' her for finally forgiving him for the Kristen thing. Sort of like telling her, you see now that I could have you, I'm not because you are more important to me than sex and I'm going to hold off until our wedding night to prove it to you...all the while he's banging Abby on the side. I can definitely see that happen too. Not that I can't see the double dipping...

Maybe her being paired with JS and AS will help her acting skills because Lord knows she needs all the help she can get. KM is Team C when it comes to acting while JS/AS are Team A. I think they have to tape her scripts around so she can read from them because it really sounds that way when she talks.

This is pretty much how many currently feel about Sami.

I am enjoying
every second
of this. I am happy
that Ejabby are going
to be ongoing.
I haven't been this
excited about a pairing
in a long time. I'm happy
they will be on more.

Sami better not ever forgive this.
Cheating is cheating and it wasn't
just for her if he goes back for more.

Thoroughly disagree...LOL If AS's "acting" rubs off anyone that is not a good thing. She's one of the worst. I also don't see why everyone was so pumped about CS as Jordan. She couldn't be more boring.

I think AS can be a little OTT sometimes but she can nail emotional scenes but that is just my opinion. I still have little interest in Jordan at all, I don't know if it is CS or what but she is a bore... probably why she is paired with Rafe. Jury is still out on Sheryl though... she has potential.

I don't think KM is a bad actor as in she's a line reader, she just doesn't choose to play Abby in a very entertaining, engaging way. There's many times when Abby should come across as strong or funny or smart in a scene, but she instead comes across as whiny or judgmental or naive. She's pretty though and she's a good on-screen kisser, so there's that.

Abby is awesome
and Kate is a wonderful
actress. She needs no help
from JS or AS. She can
act just fine in her own right.

Abby is amazing bc she does
not take any crap. I love her
character and love her paired with
JS. I think tptb did an
outstanding job putting these two
together.

Now Ejabby are truly
ratings gold!
