I agree with Aiden. Hope is blind when it comes to Ciara and she wanted to talk her way out of trouble and make excuses. Can't stand parents like that. Bullies need to be stopped.
Aren't most parents blind to their children? :shrug: Is it wrong that Hope wants to defend her child? It's not like Aiden was behaving rationally towards Hope.

Is Ciara wrong for doing what she did? Yes.
Is Hope wrong for wanting to at least talk to Ciara before sentencing her? No.
Should Aiden have been a bit more respectful towards Hope? Yes.
Is Hope going to let Ciara get away with what she did? No.
Will Ciara tell her the truth.......
At first, probably not. But once Hope tells her that she talked to Father Matt, I think Ciara will start to tell the truth.

I've mentioned before that this kind of thing made me stop supporting a couple that I previously liked.
My nosiness is getting the better of me, which couple/show was this?

I wonder what Doug has been doing while Julie is playing Jessica Fletcher? I'll bet he's gotten an earful about Nick at home!

ohmahgoodness that first Ejabby screen cap. The feeling just jumps off the screen to me.

Also, KM is friggin gorgeous. I really love how she is playing Abby looking/sussing out EJ in the last few episodes. Or trying to suss him out at least. As Matt said earlier in the thread, this Abby is really giving me life as well.

Today was just flat out good soap. Ericole, EJabby, Julie, Beannie, Baby Ari, Hope/Aiden...everyone was great. There was a little bit of everything and I didn't hit my ff once.

I'm sorry but those two don't look like a couple to me. They look like a father having a conversation with his adult daughter. I could see EJ with Hope, heck even Theresa but not Abby.

Which is good because then no matter how much Abby's cow eyeballs water up, I will not feel sorry for her in the least. Especially if she does it out of shame and not vindictiveness. She'll deserve every oz of pain and misery she gets. The fireplace awaits her.
LOL, HF. I've missed your no-fucks-to-give commentary. Nice to see you posting more again lately.
Her big ass eyes save her, she's like a cartoon character's eyes welling up with tears. IDK like Nibbler/Futurama. Anyway, I'm not going to let a throbbing nerve ending ruin my enjoyment of EJ. So I say let him get his R. Kelly on all he wants, not going to feel bad for her.
I don't even agree with all this, but you get a "like" from me because that's some funny shit. :blulaugh:

The age difference between EJ and Abby doesn't bother me at all. Abby doesn't seem like a teenager to me. As a matter of fact, for the past year or so she's acted like the parent and Jennifer the child in their relationship and I hated that. Now, she seems to be acting more age appropriate.

I love how Abby can stand up to EJ without screeching like a banshee with a hangnail
Have we ever seen Abby screeching like a howler monkey? I can't remember a time. . . :shrug:
Hers is more whiny than screechy. It's how she earned the nickname STFUAbby.

Thanks for the screen caps, Supergirl!

I am grinning like an idiot here. Ejabby is everything I didn't know I wanted from this show. KM and JS just bring this smoldering dark sexiness to every interaction. Them together makes me "get" JS' appeal. KM makes Abby so feisty, but traditional.

Ejabby is love. I just adore them.

It's a personal thing...because of Kate's looks & the way her character is written, I relate to the character of Abby like a daughter & my daughters are only 13, so I'm stuck with that visual because of the similarities. Lindsay Hartley is probably even more petite than Kate and I thought when she played Arianna that she & EJ were hot together. But she didn't look or act anything like my teenage daughters, like Abby does.
I think the criticism on Abby acting like teen and that why she wrong for ej while Sami ej currently fiancee acting like child and almost short as Abby and yet not problem with her
The difference is that AS couldn't pass for a teenager. I see it's become the thing to dismiss everyone's complaints by bringing up Sami (because obviously, what else could complaints about Abby be about? After all, everybody was just thrilled with Abby's behavior before ejabby started, right? :rolleyes: ) but the trifecta of Abby looking very young, acting younger and being so tiny seems off when compared to JS who looks so much older. I've mentioned before that this kind of thing made me stop supporting a couple that I previously liked.
No shit.

And how is it somehow surprising that people have different opinions about Abby or Ejabby? Seriously? Not everybody on here is going to agree that a couple is awesome. And that goes TRIPLE when it's any couple that starts with a EJ--- or ends with a ----ami. Can't we just debate the merits of a couple rather than debating the merits of having a different opinion about said couple?

rotflmao. Aiden's pretty much accusing Hope of being a bad mother
That's how I interpreted it too because I kept wanting her to smack him in the face - what a weiner!

Unfortunately, in 2014, many parents are blind to what their children are doing. Once upon a time, parents gave teachers, principals and priests the benefit of the doubt, apologized for their children's behavior and then parented instead of defending their actions. I hope I don't end up disliking Hope in this storyline.

I thought it was stupid of Aiden to criticize hope the way he did. It was as if he expected a bully like Ciara to be telling her mother about her bullying activities at school. :blulaugh:

This is the only time I have or will ever wonder where Sami is.
I KNOW! I KNOW! I kept thinking, "HOLY CRAP! You're talking about having sex with each other in church and your fiancee's family is right outside and well. . your fiancee' could walk in. . :drunk: ."
Funny, I never thought about her the entire episode.
Well, it was only a fleeting thought, but it did alarm me. Maybe that tuna sandwich I was eating gave me a brain fart.

JS looks much older than his actual age, imo.

And that goes TRIPLE when it's any couple that starts with a EJ--- or ends with a ----ami. Can't we just debate the merits of a couple rather than debating the merits of having a different opinion about said couple?
I don't know about this. Are people balking at the idea that there are those who don't absolutely love and fawn over Ejabby? I don't get that impression; it's just opinions that are disagreement with other opinions. But maybe I am missing something.

Abby looks young in comparison to EJ - gotcha. Believe me, I get it. Fair enough, although I never got father/daughter niece/avuncular figure or whatever you want to call it from them. Which is probably why I enjoy them in part, or why I am able to enjoy them. But given that some think EJ is currently engaged to someone who also resembles a child, I can understand why that rejoinder or comparison would come up. I have made it myself, mostly in an attempt to try to be "funny" as best I can, which is never a good idea probably. I understand that most of the "young girl" stuff for Abby comes from her looking physically youngish (although her behavior seems to be a sticking point on that front as well) and Sami does not look as physically young or small, but her behavior sometimes makes it seem like EJ is dealing with a teenager anyway. And yes, Sami acting like a child does not CANCEL OUT Abby looking (and acting) child-like, and it is none of Sami's doing that Abby appears young and small. But I think that is where the comparison/equivalencies are coming from...and I don't think they are so off base (and I am sure there is a healthy dose of attempted snark coming into play anyway). I just think it's people disagreeing the "young child" thing is an issue.

But those who see it as a deal-breaker or overwhelmingly ubiquitous or grossly inappropriate, are certainly free to hold and express that opinion. I haven't seen posts debating the merit of HAVING A DIFFERENT OPINION, just commenting on their thoughts about that opinion, engaging the premise put forth by the opinion (eg, not understanding why it's such a "problem"). I dunno, that's what I have gathered anyway.

Jokes are jokes, of course, and they don't need air-tight logic to exist. Nor must they be followed by a lengthy debate each and every time.
