Today is the day Eric tells Nicole his decision!! :cheer:

Well on paper anyway, but it could be a cliffhanger until tomorrow too... :thumbsdown:
I hope he doesn't talk in that halting monotone way that drives me nuts.

I know I am a minority here but I don't want Nicole and Eric to be a thing. They just don't work together.
They bore me too and I think it's the lack of charisma. Eric is dull to me and I like Nicole
better with shades of evil in her. I wish they would bring back the old Nicole and have a darker man lure her back to the shady side. The last time I found them interesting was when Kristen was messing with them to be honest
I'm not feeling Eric & Nicole (sorry, I hate name combos), which kind of makes me sad because they are the closest thing to a juicy soap super couple in the making this show has now. Just not feeling it --wish I was :shrug: :-/

Just turned it on. Why is Nick dressed like he was featured as an extra for Mad Men?

I'm glad I'm not the only one who got a Mad Men vibe from him! I actually liked how most of Salem was dressed today. Even though I teased Sami's Patridge Bus dress, it still looked good on her & was flattering (which is more than can be said about 90% of the things they put her in)

I don't get why Marlena is in favor of a Wilson marriage. I feel like it's just Days wanting to push the story ahead. Marlena's usually more 'don't rush into things', and how old is Will, anyway?
I was thinking the same thing... I don't get the Will & Sonny marriage story. Is that all they can think of for those two? Why the rush to get married? Do they just want to marry them then write them off into the sunset?

David Cherrill stepped up to the plate and showed how to get it done! Leaps and bounds better than the dribble we were subjected to yesterday.

Nick soared playing Kate! :blulaugh: I loved his veiled references to what they both know happened and how Kate is in no position to decline the blackmail.

I just want to give Sonny a big kiss for his handling of Gabi's gullibility. He didn't hold back and yet Gabi stays true to character. She's stupid! I can't even rationalize that she's young, inexperienced and naive. The girl knows the dark side of Nick and yet she's living in fantasy land that side of him just magically disappeared. Keep throwing that water in her face Sonny til something seeps in her brain.

Abby and Ej were very engaging. I love that Abby calls him on everything and so on point. Ej's reactions felt authentic. He's definitely swept up by her even as he wants to right his relationship with Sami. It's good drama.

Thank you! Marlena and Will! How overdue this has been! Such love and support needs to be shown more frequently and the bond here also needs to be honored. I thought Guy stepped in to this relationship wonderfully today.

Julie! Cracks me up and fits this to a tee.

Nicole puzzles things out on her own is a big 'yes' for me. And oh my, my did they build up Eric's confession just perfectly. I was biting at the bit to get to the good part. That's romance!

I feel so relieved that Days can pull off a good sweep day.
(They just might want to give Janet Iacobuzio some time to get her shit together.)

Brady runs into Father Louis.
Fr. Louis looks like a slightly aged Ken doll.

Nick mimicking Percky is made of win.

Loved Nicole's reaction to Eric at the door.

I find it amusing that "text over the slightest Nick mention" is upset with Sonny for texting Sami because of their conversation.

I really don't understand the rush for marriage either. (my comment above not withstanding) As long as they are together it shouldn't matter. Unless it is going to play a role in them getting custody of Ari.

I just hope this doesn't mean that we will see even less of Wilson, if that is even possible at this point! It seems to be the thing to do with gay couples. Marry them off and have them play supporting roles to everybody else. :shame:

Isn't Will about twenty-one? And is it a good idea to marry the first and only boyfriend you've ever had? I would really have a problem if my child wanted to get married at twenty-one years old.......and he might be even younger.
I think Will is at least 21 since they have shown him drinking on multiple occasions. He was also 20 last year when Ari was born. And we all know that he was supposed to have a birthday recently, even if it was the totally wrong date!

If my grandson or son had an amazing guy like Sonny, who loves him and his daughter, I would tell him to hold on with 2 hands and never let go! Life is way too short!!



I agree that 20-21 is young to get married, especially to your first boyfriend but their situation isn't typical. Sonny has already proven himself a great guy in many ways, especially in regards to Arianna. Given their lives the way they are being written, I'd say that Will should snatch Sonny up as soon as he feels ready. Life, especially in Salem, in unpredictable as hell. Take a big chance when it comes around. :)

this is SO TOTALLY old-school 1980s supercouple soap and I. AM. HERE!
So am I. OMG, how I have been missing a slow build (super)couple on soaps. Ericole are now my #2 after Mason and Julia.

I just hope my favorite youtube site for quick Ericole uploads will not disappoint.

Excuse me please <runs off>

Exactly! I look at these situations differently for everyone. In general, I don't think people should get married and have kids before they are 30. However, life brings things to you when they are meant to happen.

Unfortunately I have seen 2 cousins lose their spouses way too young, so it was a good thing they were at least together, if not married, when they were so young!

Of course this is a soap and different rules apply, but I don't see people making such a big deal about how young some of the old school "super couples" were when they got together. :shrug:

On the Ejabby conversation, I think KM does an excellent job showing all the layers here. And I'm glad Abby isn't making this easy for EJ. Here is one of the reasons I like Abby. She says how she feels. She doesn't try to pretend that this doesn't hurt and she's clear to EJ there is nothing he can say to make her feel better about it so just stop trying. I'm not getting an obsessed vibe from her at all, if anything she has an avoidance vibe. She didn't want to go there, she tried to get out of going there. She tried to leave as soon as the cupcakes were done. But if she's forced to spend time with him, one to one, she's making it clear she can't sweep her feelings under the rug. Or that's how I see it.

OMG, they finally had Eric say it!

Today EJabby felt more about them than Ejami. I haven't read any spoilers, but yeah, I got the sense that they are not going to stay away from one another.

Will looked and was dressed like an old man. GW is very meh as Will to me.

I wish I liked Ericole, because I really like Nicole and think AZ is a wonderful actress. But I find GV's whispery voice all kinds of irritating. Are we sure John Black isn't Eric's biological father?

For the first time ever, I wanted to slap Gabi. There's a line between trusting, naïveté and stupidity. And today she was stupid.

Brady needs to choose a reason he doesn't want Eric in his life and stick with it. One minute he recognizes him as a victim, the next he sees him as complicit.

Nick is really OT crazy.

I don't exactly get what Sami is thinking in this lets confront Nick mentality. The coven is still guilty of committing a crime (s?).

I wasn't feeling EJami. There has been too many false starts and declarations for me to get excited about Sami's "lines" comment, and EJ indirectly owning up to Kristen's rape of Eric.

Today was so much better than yesterday! What a difference a scriptwriter can make!

I think Brady is being a real tool when it comes to Eric. Eric is as much a victim of Kristen as Brady himself is ... and Brady's the one that brought her into the fold and led to Eric's humiliation. Get over yourself already!

Loved Sonny's reaction to everything Gabi was saying and yet I can also see Gabi's point - she desperately wants to believe that Nick has changed so that what happened would just go away and never be mentioned again. Loved Sami's passionate tirade about the woman Kate is and I like how she's telling Nick to put the cards on the table.

Nicole was just a little bit hyper today ... LOL! I liked how Eric came right out and told her he loved her. I also like that there isn't a shadow of a doubt that he chose her over the church as she never got the chance to tell him they got the evidence to clear his name.

And Abby ... absolutely love that she tells EJ exactly what she's thinking and feeling. No fear from her. And EJ may want to move forward with Sami but something tells me letting go of Abigail isn't going to be all that easy for him. And I agree with the person who said they don't get an obsession vibe from her ... I know that's what the spoilers keep pushing but I'm not seeing that on screen yet and I hope I never do!
