The more Abby the better for me. I've always thought Kate Mansi had potential to be one of the top female leads on the show, I'm just glad they're giving her a shot. She's my favorite person involved when it comes to these three. They started fixing her character before this even happened, but the episode in the cabin was just glorious. She's shown a little of the annoying Abby the last couple episodes, but I can't tell if she's being manipulative or not yet. Either way I enjoy it.

I don't think any of those quotes meant its over, but it very well may be. I just think she meant those specific scenes when she was talking about it so they are obviously over. Even if they do end EJabby I think they will pick it back up again in months when they see the response its gotten. They love buzz and this has caused more buzz than anything in quite a while...positive or negative.

After seeing Sami literally whining like a 5 year old child when EJ left her standing in DiMansion I can't with people acting like Abby is too young in any way for EJ.

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.
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.
Watching AZ in her terrified scene today, made me realize an actress like AS can not pull of that emotion. AZ looked terrified! AS just gives this booboo face...

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.
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...
Nah - I think he's got no qualms about double dipping.

Whatever's best for EJ.

Example 1 EJ /Nicole kiss from 2011, I think JS played it badly if you're so in love with her sister don't lean in for more.

I don't think EJ's having a problem with guilt; he just doesn't want the ONS to get out. I think he'll compartmentalized the "affair" with Abby just like he's doing with the ONS as the something for himself while still keeping his promise to Sami to be there for her at the same time since it's all about her and not about "them". But I do think he will put her off with the excuse of waiting until after the wedding to buy himself some time.

Additionally, we don't know yet what Sami's mindset will be. She might actually be relieved to wait having made the offer and maybe having her own dish of fish to fry. ;)

Sami would get suspicious if EJ doesn't sleep with her so he has to sleep with her to stop her from
finding out about Abby.

I'm actually shocked. I had such low expectations for what the Ej/Abby relationship would become that reading this makes me feel spoiled. In fact, I want to go out now and do a good deed for someone else to pay it forward.

Uh oh. Ejabby is making me a better person.

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.
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.
IDK...I've always found KM a pretty solid actress....especially before sharing any screen time with JS or AS...I remember she took the Austin story and ran with it...and that is when she was sorta new to Days, so I don't see her needing to learn from AS or JS...she does fine on her own IMHO

NAH..Ejabby is not working for me. Its so wrong on all different levels. If they wanted to break up Ejami there are millions of ways to do it, not blatantly disrespect their whole history the way they're doing now. The only reason most Ejami fans are still watching is because there's this tiny hope that EJ will somehow come to his senses. But if it looks like he won't, most like myself will say Goodbye.

She did very well with the right material. (Austin storyline)

Ever since 50 Shades came out there has been support for James as a perfect candidate for the movie version. Days is smart to move on that and utilize it in the show. Why not bank on that popularity and the fact his fans want to see him in this type role? KM is the perfect choice to pair with him. I hope they make the most of this and keep tongues wagging!

Well, suprise suprise, sorry but I agree with those who think that KM probably way over her head, she is in a different league than JS and he will have to carry her, and that's a shame. Either way the character Abby is a bore sure she can have hot sex scenes with EJ but it is thanks to EJ / JS they are hot. IMO And now a question why can not EJ be honest with Sami and let her go? I would say that EJ is an asshole here, and Abby is easy and willing to be exploited by his needs. And why not form their own dynamics of EJabby instead of imitating EJami? The story is not strong enough to keep my interest sorry but this is nasty and a big fail to me.

I can't wrap my head around the 50 shades references to this story, though. There is absolutely nothing in this that plays anything at all like the books. The plot is nothing like it - the characters are nothing like it. It's completely unrelated.

I think angry sex means 50 Shades of Gray to a lot of people. I've seen the reference in relation to Ejami's angry sex scenes too and I never understood that either.

Didn't Lauren K say this past week in her interview with Diva of Days that EJAbby was still going on and they are filming like May or June by now aren't they? I can't remember her exact words but I believe that's what was said.

I don't think NBC will be silly enough to lose the momentum EJAbby, LUSH, Jafe and Ericole are giving them. It's been a long time since DAYS has gotten this much buzz and excitement. They need to milk it as long as they can and keep it going! Give us something to be excited to watch!
