^^^ 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.
That whole double-dippin' business is just gross. :x That's EJ for ya. He once double-dipped directly into Lucas's fresh "tadpoles"

I honestly don't get how EJ and Abigail having consensual sex in an affair can be viewed as worse than Sami rewarding EJ's crimes, or character damaging. EJ does this sort of stuff constantly, Abby instigated the entire Caustin fiasco in the past. It isn't changing history, or rewriting the characters like this show has done so many times for WTF moments.

Love the interview. I find that I am enjoying Ejabby, and I think a large part of that is because I like Kate Mansi so much. I'm glad that Days is giving her some headlining material to work with, in order to keep her around.

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.
Thoroughly disagree...LOL If AS's "acting" rubs off anyone that is not a good thing. She's one of the worst. Happy you appear to be back on a regular basis.Could not have said it better myself.

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 I just realized I have liked Kate Mansi since that mess with Chad and Melanie but I began to love her in the Austin-Carrie fiasco.She used to crack me up with Austin.I still liked her during the Cameron-Chad mess but I think this will be the story that causes people to take notice.In a way I am kind of sorry because I don't want to see her leave but I can see it happening.She is a good actress getting better as time goes on.If Molly and Casey can move to primetime,I can see Kate doing so as well.Anyone know how long she has been playing Abby,I can't recall.

I was a HUGE jack and Jennifer fan. Still have their entire story on VHS and they need a much more interesting character than Abby if that's what they're attempting. This character is just bleach - which is a tragedy considering her parentage But in J&J the more interesting character was always Jack. Jenn was the innocent one that bieved in the bad guy and saw something to love...and we learned to love him through her eyes...

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!
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. Perhaps a lot of viewers are like me.I have not read Fifty Shades but have seen references to it and made assumptions as to what is actually in the book based on the comments of others.Another poster cleared up some content for me by giving me the names of the characters and their ages because I assumed the male character was early to mid thirties and the female character early twenties.If EJ/Abby is not Fifty Shades,it does not bother me.I like what I am seeing on my screen even if its not Fifty Shades.

But in J&J the more interesting character was always Jack. Jenn was the innocent one that bieved in the bad guy and saw something to love...and we learned to love him through her eyes... Yes but Jennifer had a personality. In fact when she first returned to Salem to line with Alice it was because she was in trouble at boarding school. She always had fire and fight in her. She was a good girl but she wasn't a goody goody boring character. That is what Abby is - nothing defines her. Nothing makes her interesting and it's laughable to me that a complex character like EJ would be interested in anything other than a quick fuck - and even that's a stretch IMO.
I get what days is trying I do. They want to push KM to a leading character and the quickest way to do it is by putting her with their A story with their top leading man but it doesn't make any sense. Not with EJs character and with ZERO build up. They may as well have had him fuck caroline. At least they have more of a history together.
It's nonsense. Oh well this too will pass - in six months.

I want to try and hold out hope Ejabby continues for the long term but Kate talks about this story in a very past tense language. Hmmmmm trying to enjoy them now while I can. But i get the feeling now it's not going to last very long. :'(

I'd argue Abby's had a personality too - just not during the fetch propping saga.

It is also very poorly written fan fiction.

50 shades is mommy porn, s&m and bondage, not getting way that's appropriate for daytime TV. Not to bring up the R word, but I prefer consensual bondage any day of the week.
