As for Abby being referred to "crazy", I don't see that one bit. She admits her feelings to EJ and how she still wants him. But that's pretty much it. She's not "stormed the castle" and forced herself on him. She left him in the park and....went back to work. It was EJ who followed her out to Smith Island initially. It was EJ who held her very tightly at the Dimansion without letting her go. It was EJ who insisted on talking to her at the church and practically dared her to kiss him (which she resisted). Then it was EJ who followed her to the park and finally the hospital. You can't accuse EJ of "manipulating" Abby to protect Sami and the Coven (when she kisses him and he doesn't stop her) then turn around when he follows her all over Salem, she now can't be the stalker.

All points taken. Ej is like a child following a bad guy with candy. Hes liking Abbys attention, he likes the fact that shes up front with how she feels about him and he doesnt have to act like someone else with her. Shes excepting him. Something Sami hardly ever did.

Again I dont think he slept with her to shut her up. I think hes developed feelings for her and I also dont think that when he sleeps with her again it will be for the purpose of shutting her up from telling Hope anything. He WANTS her, he LIKES her. Abby has his attention now and she knows it. The ball is in her court and shes certainly making all the points in this ballgame.

I have been a fan of Days of Our Lives since the 80s, but the last few years I have been half-heartily watching because I got tired of them focusing so much of their storylines around Sami (Alison Sweeney) and her destructive and I will admit sometimes amusing relationships with various men. I am now hooked back on Days, because I like the direction the show is taking and the different storylines. I like the romance of Ericole, the scandal and soon to be epic fallout from Ejabby, Hope’s possible new romance, and the return of Nick. I even set Days as top priority on my DVR.

Isnt that why Nick was in prison in the first place. Murder? Didnt he kill Melanies Father? That would sure break his parole if he did kill Gabi... Is Burris leaving the show as well?
Good Ol' Nick may be heading back to Prison...

If he murdered Gabi, breaking his parole would be the least of his crimes.

Just joined the board and this is my first post. I've been visiting this board for a little while now and have laughed my ass off at some of the "snark" and other entertaining comments that are posted, I love it! But, today I found I had to join, break my silence and give my two cents about the EJ/Abby sl that so many seem to love. To put it simply, I hate it and am looking forward with great anticipation for it to be over and hopefully never revisited again, I find it gross and uncharacteristic for both of the characters, for a lot of reasons. I had been a loyal Days viewer throughout the 80s and 90s, and only came back after a 15 year absence because of the Ejami chemistry and storyline that was going on one day when I turned the show on out of boredom in early 2012. I was drawn in immediately by the so called "chemistry" between the pair. From the start, I found Abigail's character to be utterly boring, annoying and mostly laughable (Little Miss Golden Circle Club/Drama Queen) and I usually FF'd through all her material. From what I've seen of Ej's character so far I just can't understand his pairing with Abby, and I think it's solely for ratings and raised eyebrows, both of which it has received, so unfortunately the scheme has worked which will only fuel the EJ/Abby insanity. I'm very disappointed with where they have taken the Ejami sl since I began to watch Days again. I was hoping for a happy ending for the couple, after catching up on the whole Ejami history that I missed, I really thought a happy ending was fitting. But, I am still holding out for a hero, to somehow save the couple from the brink, and provide that happy ending.
Welcome aboard.Since AS is going to finish taping in May and will be off screen by the end of the year,the only way they can get their happy ending is if EJ and Sami leave Salem at the end of the year in the same exit story.This may be the case but I hope its not.I have always liked KM's Abby even though others have not as shown by Rivergail and STFU Abby.I respect that others do not like Abby or KM even though I like both.I think she is a good actress.I liked James Scott with Nicole and I like him again with Abby.The only way to keep JS is to have EJ move on from Sami. I don't want him to leave the show but if he leaves I will likely continue to watch just as a watched before before EJ arrived in Salem.

I only disagree with the EJ is like a child following a bad guy with candy.EJ is no innocent child being lead astray by big bad Abby.He is more like "Brocaine".

I thought about Gabi dying but I dismissed it because they already killed off Arianna,I didn't think they would go their twice with Rafe's sisters.

I guess there's no chance they recast her? Maybe she goes crazy because of nick and they send her away? I couldn't see her leaving the baby on purpose after all this mess.

For the one millionth time - GIVE BC A FREAKIN' CONTRACT!
BC?
T Tad Brendan Coughlin

"Tad is part of Salem High's Class of '11. He played baseball with Will and ran track with Will and Chad. He frequently appeared as comic relief for the teen scene, and often acted as the buffer for Kinsey. Other's referred to him by the nickname, "T."

But, when Abigail's cousin, Sonny, came to town, T was less than welcoming. As soon as T learned that Sonny was gay, T began being very mean to Sonny. Will, Chad, and the rest of their friends jumped to Sonny's defense, driving a wedge between them and T. When Will came out, T accused Sonny of "turning Will gay" and punched Sonny. Sonny retaliated with a punch back, then tried to make peace with T. But, T wasn't willing to call a truce. He continued to hate Sonny.

Finally, Will intervened. Will opened up to T and made T see that they're still friends and that Will being gay doesn't change anything between them. T began to act more accepting of Sonny and Will. T is now considering dating Gabi."
If Tad keeps hanging around Gabi, he'll become a target of jealous Nick

I liked how Will was a cool customer. He looked surprised to see Nick but didn't look suspicious or like someone who knew anything. I think he's happy that Nick is alive and hasn't thought through any other ramifications.

Also, the discussion between the coven and WilSon was a clear indication that they were suspecious of the amnesia story. It was strange that Sami was the only one reinforcing the posibility.

I just don't get the need to silence Abby now that Nick is alive. The writers are just looking for lame reasons for Ejabby to continue.
I disagree about Will. He didn't like a cool customer to me or happy. He looked angry to me.

I can easily see that. Flipping it though I could also see Gabi actually successfully killing off Nick for good before she leaves. That would explain the emotional scenes she has with Abby before she goes (probably to jail, obv) and the tender scenes Will has with Kate around the same time as well. Either way, Gabi is most likely going to be leaving Salem (she's not being recast, right?) in negative way. It would be interesting to see Gabi go from this crazed dramatic woman (with good cause though) to being the one to off her ex-husband when he's hated by other stronger people who will want him dead as well. Maybe Nick will threaten Gabi and Arianna and Gabi, tired of being the victim, has enough it, and kills him.

The possibilities of how this revenge plot eventually wraps up are endless but each of them are soapy as hell. :)

Loved BB today. He hit it out of the park today. Honestly I don't believe his act but I really wanted to.

A couple of things i thought of after today though. Is it possible that Stefano was actually the one that found him. Maybe the bird watcher works for him and he was following kate when he saw it happen. He saved Nick and now he is indebted to Stefano. Maybe Nick blackmails everyone for him.

Also I'm kind of hoping that Nick on goes after K/S/G I know it is a stupid plot point but as far as Nick should be concerned Ej, Will and Sonny don't even know that they tried to kill him.

In the past quite a few posters complained that there were too few characters had storylines.I guess TPTB do listen occasionally and the show we see now is the result.
More watchable episodes for there who like stories beyond three or four characters.I must admit this site has seen an uptick in new members in the last month or so which is great for discussion purposes.It is rare that you are alone in who/what you like on this site.As you have probably noted there is robust disussion of just about any aspect of the show and most is positive.Good story telling has done what a lot of posters thought would likely not occur,50th anniversary and more.Good to have another view point for the daily discussions.Hope you have a great time here.

Dear Nick has seen the error of his ways, yeah right! I predict blackmail, trickery, harassment, and other nasty things.

I don't think Abby is wacko, I think she's in lust with EJ. I do think it's wierd that everytime somebody mentions him dealing with Abby, he thinks....fuck her! a few times... That's a tell.

I think he does want her, and feels like he needs to drink the liquor cabinet to rid him self of that desperate barbaric need. Something tells me he's going to screw her in the store room.

She feels the need to be with him, I think his pickle feels the need to be inside of her.

Frankily I think Ejabby are in sweet LUST!

This isn't the first time I've read this, but we haven't had an uptick in new members. We're actually a little below our average. Though, I guess we could reach or exceed our average by the end of the month.
