It'd be cool if the person spying on Ejabby turned out to be Chad. And I'd be super impressed if DAYS had recast the role of Chad and managed to keep it secret all this time! (Actually, I recall that DAYS put out a casting call for a really tall twenty-something guy that sounded like it could be a Chad recast. But I don't think we ever learned if DAYS had hired someone for that role.)

And it makes sense that Chad would be spying on Abigail in Horton Square. Here's my theoretical scenario: Maybe Chad returned to Salem a few days earlier in hopes of speaking to Abigail, so he followed her to Smith Island. But before Chad could speak to Abigail, EJ showed up at the cabin. Chad spied on them to find out what was going on and was shocked to see them having sex. Chad decides not to confront Ejabby and instead decides to get revenge. Chad could've been spying on Abigail in Friday's episode because Chad knew that Abigail would eventually have another rendezvous with EJ. Then Chad, with camera in hand, follows Abigail to Smith Island and photographs her kissing EJ.

Also, it makes sense for Chad to be around when the Ejabby affair is revealed because it would really increase the emotional fallout. Everyone in Salem would be pissed at EJ for betraying Sami, whereas Chad would be pissed at EJ for betraying their brotherly bond. And it would be an especially vicious betrayal because Chad had asked EJ to be kind to Abigail and to help her after Chad had left town. Plus, DAYS needs more twenty-something characters (both male and female), so the Ejabby reveal would be a perfect time for Chad to return to Salem.
And chad can go on to ruin the ejami wedding getting weirdly blamed for the whole mess by everyone involved but a new place in Salem as a serial wedding stopper in conjunction with Marlena.
Why not. I've still got Marlena at the Bristen wedding on repeat. It was that good!
I still can't believe they don't give Deidre more comedic stuff to do.

I'm hoping J&M's road to a reunion will be it (I want it to be funny and sassy, while sexy and romantic, and honest).

They had something in SID or SOD about John and Marlena's story that's coming up but I didn't read it.

I sure hope Drake brushed up on his acting since he's been off screen. It was hard to watch him before he left this last time.

Friday was good to last sip...
EJabby, what a surprise
Ericole, there are no words.... the I love you moments could have only been better if he kissed her, but falling toward each other's heads and her crying hearing those sweet words was the next best thing. I feel for the poster that wanting the Ericole moments on oppostie days as Ejabby, but I loved loved loved the love that poured between Ericole. I will hate him leaving but I hope, hope, hope... that when the olympics are over, Eric will return, at her door, with his coat buttoned up. I want her wondering what his decision is, and him unbuttoning his jacket to a priest-collarless shirt, ready to be her man. :wub:

Maybe they recast Cameron. He did text her a New Year's message out of the blue. And apparently she was supposed to be "in love" with him until he let Chad have her.

The show isn't going anywhere for the Olympics. It's only going to be preempted for one day for, I believe, women's ice hockey.

No.

He wants to wait and decide together when their lives are less crazy. In other words, they want Guy in role longer and for the proposal not to come out of thin air in the middle of a murder crisis, planning a christening, etc.

Finally watching Friday's episode. I can't see Will now without seeing

But he's definitely a good actor. I like the more grown up feel GW has brought instead of it seeming like a goofy kid in adult situations like with CM.

Abigail not believing that EJ would find her attractive pushes credibility.

Brady "I can spot a phony" Black cracks me up. Oh yeah?

Actually, that Ben guy in casting,.. couldn't he be Chad? He certainly looks like he could play the role of Chad. It would really put EJABBY into another perspective with EJ dealing with Chad finding out on screen and having to deal with his brothers anger over it. And of course competition over Abbys affection perhaps?

I love to see brothers being on love with the same woman... I don't think we seen that on days. Of course, EJ isn't just any brother. And both are Dimeras. =) Love it. I can definitely see this play out once its revealed and the effects of it has been played out. Maybe Abby decides to make EJ envy by going back to Chad. After all EJ has always been very flirtatious around abby in front of Chad.
He could be Chad, but we already know a Ben is joining the show based on the May script in the JL/MSL video. Plus, in the Ben audition tape, he sounded like a 20-something guy who played music. Given Justin's musical background, it makes more sense that he's probably Ben.

I do NOT need Daniel/Dannifer propping from JJ and Maggie.

Maybe Daniel/Jennifer would be more popular if Marlena propped them? Usually when the show wanted an unpopular couple to be more accepted by the audience or wanted a couple people were torn about to be more accepted they pulled out Marlena to give her blessing like what happened with Mike and Carrie

Hey they've tried everything else so it couldn't hurt
Well, I love Marlena, but I hated Mike and Carrie. A LOT!

I don't think it was necessarily bad acting, though I know he's no Olivier, but more the writing for John made it hard to watch him. Painful to say the least. I blame the writing for that.

No more Dannifer propping please. END THEM now! They are boring Imo.
NO. Just NO. Enough characters have been sacrificed over the last two years trying to make Fetch happen without throwing Marlena into the mix too. Why TIIC are clinging white-knuckled to this dud pairing baffles me no end, though I suspect it has to do with Tomsell trying to make Daniel--their personal Gary Stu--a tentpole character on the show. Ironically, they have a better chance of succeeding in that aim if they cut him loose from Jennifer, because these two bring out the worst in each other. Surely it couldn't be that hard to end the inFetchuation permanently and send both characters in different directions!
I don't like them together either I'm just saying that it might help their popularity if Marlena got behind them lol. That's how they got the audience behind Mike and Carrie instead of Austin. Marlena gave them her blessing and the audience got on board. During the triangle with Philip and Brady when the show wanted to go with Brady they had Marlena and Brady reconcile and the audience got on board. It was a pattern of using Marlena to get folks behind people ad pairings the show wanted up push lol. Maybe I shouldn't give the writers any ideas, it's just funny but instead of using JJ which isn't working use Marlena which has worked in the past

Sorry to go off topic, but if the audience bought into Mike and Carrie why did they ride a bed off into the sunset, never to be seen again? I don't think the audience bought them one bit. I sure didn't.

N-O! That would just make me dislike Marlena and probably punch a kitten in the throat - perhaps BOTH!

I hope its not too lovey dovey though. Jarlena got boring for me for many years and I actually found them interesting again when they were at odds over Kristen and Brady.

That could of been part of the reason, but if that was the only reason why did Carrie come back alone, then again with Austin?
