how weird would it be to be asked by your mother to go on a date w/her & her 2-time date? Utter weirdness there Jenny.
I think it was just supposed to be Jen's not so subtle way of under scoring for both Liam and JJ that it was not a date -- just going to get some dinner. And it was also a way to show the improvement in Jen and JJ's relationship, recalling that JJ followed Jiam the first time out to horn in and try to scare Liam off by propping Dannifer. This time, JJ didn't take the bait, even though he walked in on that awkward kiss. As Jeannie T says, JJ is different since he 'grew up and ungrew a pair.' That said, I can hardly take any more of these less than sizzling Jiam encounters. Nervous babble about their exes is not cute. Debra...Daniel...Whoever. Maybe Debra and Daniel would have some sparks. But what da hell is Days doing to Mark Collier? DOOL has already ruined the first Mike Kasnoff, now they're turning the second into a complete dud. Keep MC around, give Liam some oomph, and try him with MBE. Layla.... And most important...No, you IIC, this bland stuff does not make me long for things to go Fetchward again. Never...just never...ever...ever. :glare: It's almost funny how desperately hard TomSell keeps pushing Fetch and refuses to see that the third, fourth, or even five hundredth time is not going to be the charm for this couple. If they haven't taken off in almost three years of trying, it's not going to happen now, no matter how many characters they kill, write off, or destroy so this pitiful pairing can linger on long past its expiration date. Why is it so hard for them to just cut their losses and send the characters down different paths--paths that might actually work?

I'm really getting tired of all those spoilers that keep talking about 'obsessed' Abby because I'm not seeing any signs of obsession on her part at all. What I'm seeing is an understandably confused young woman who is trying to figure out who EJ really is and what he really feels and where she fits into the picture IF she fits at all. She asked him some very pointed questions and then walked away - where's the 'obsessed' in that?
Personally - who I see as obsessed is EJ. He's obsessing with possessing Sami; always has been. I have never seen love between Sami and EJ and I never will. I truly believe at this point both Sami and EJ are incapable of love.
Loved seeing Theresa brought down! It was long, long overdue!
Kate is coming off as uber-pathetic and that's not who Kate is! Enough already - have her move on. Really enjoyed the easy camaraderie between Jordan and Rafe. It's so nice to see and hear Jordan smiling and laughing and poking good fun at Rafe.
Nice scenes at Will and Sonny's apt. I especially liked Lucas and his reaction to the good news. Truth--all of it!
Abby asked him a legit question that he couldn't/wouldn't answer. She is confused, anyone would be, but she's not obsessed at all. I think EJ was thinking about Abby when Sami walked in and Abby really got to him today. He is the one obsessed IMO.
Sami just looked stupid getting back in bed with EJ. Wanna see NO Self Respect watch that scene! She is pathetic. Why would she do that when EJ is STILL lying to her about Kristen which is why she stopped sleeping with him in the first place. Eric was almost killed because EJ refuses to offer the help he has to catch Kristen's doctor. AND EJ is sleeping with someone else who is much younger and more beautiful which makes Sami look even more dumb. I hope she feels like a fool when the truth comes out!
I don't know if EJ loves Abby, but he certainly doesn't love Sami. I can still see a chance that it might come back to EJOLE when EJ is exposed and Nicole's new secret is out too.

I must be wearing some serious shipper shades for the first time in my life because I haven't seen crazy Abby yet. I think people are so hellbent on this turning into a FA story that they are just seeing it take place but it isn't. She did give off clingy vibes today but that isn't crazy. She asks EJ the tough questions and he doesn't give answers. Yeah he has said that he loves Sami and just wants to be with her and that Abby needs to move on, but he also said they were a mistake and couldn't happen again then did.
I'm not saying Abby isn't lowering herself to keep sleeping with an engaged man, who is trying to push her away, but it isn't coming off nearly as stalkerish or crazy as some are acting. Again maybe my shipper shades are a little tinted here because I'm not seeing it.
Nah, I ship opposite of you and I don't think she's coming off as crazy either. Definitely desperate and clingy, but not crazy. The story would be a lot more interesting if she was crazy, LOL.
This is why I'm hoping this storyline ends soon, for Kate Mansi's sake. Looking at the reactions to Abby these past few days, it's obvious that people can only tolerate her when she's in steamy sex scenes. The second she opens her mouth, the following posts come up: "Abby is so desperate/crazy/clingy/annoying." The conclusion is that the character is only tolerable when she's like a porn character: don't talk and you're good. I was hoping this storyline would bring some character development to Abby, but it's not happening. And Kate Mansi deserves better than that.
These are simply your opinions that you are projecting on the general audience to make sweeping conclusions about her character's tolerability. I am sure there are many people who find Abby interesting and more than just tolerable out of the bedroom just like there are others who will always find her annoying and cant stand her. That goes for any fictional character. Really? There are people that like her in more than sex scenes? ;)

Liam is very interested in Jennifer, poor guy.
I am sure there is an elevator shaft somewhere that will help him out. :whistle:

It would be great if he was really Peter Blake having had plastic surgery. Yesssssssssss!!!!!! I'm SO here for this!!
Also since I'm obviously gifted at accidentally predicting who's going to be on the show a certain day (I casually asked about Liam and there he was lol), maybe I should try reversing that talent. No Daniel tomorrow please!? ;)

I absolutely love getting to see Lucas on a regular basis! I also love that he is being written like the real Lucas and not some plot-driven version of him! :wub2:

This episode has a wafting smell of shit all over it:
-Smug Daniel -Jennibitch -Fetch propping -JJ blowing Daniel's dick the entire episode -EJAMI love scene...
You can't really get any worse as far as DAYS episode go than this!
JJ Deveraux is becoming one of the BIGGEST disapointments I have seen a in a long time....he was written PERFECTLY in his first year and now he has been reduced to Daniel/FETCH shipper #156876333.
He is meddling in his mommy's love life to prop Daniel & Fetch...he has essentially replaced STFUAbby in the Fetch universe.
Epic fail DAYS!

Epic fail DAYS! Amen to that. We need JJ to become a little bit like his old self. His rebel personality is what made viewers really like him and the actor. I also think him and Theresa/Jen Lilley have mad chemistry and should be paired together romantically as the little shit stirrers in Salem. They don't have to be on drugs to do that.

Yeah I agree. I don't get crazy but I do get desperate a now bordering on pathetic. He has now told her multiple times it was a mistake and he loves Sami etc. I still don't see this as being more than a man hurt & alienated by the woman he loves and acting out with a very willing body. Meanwhile Abby is throwing attitude like she knows ej etc. again on what basis? Grunting? O face? So I don't see crazy but I could see the potential. Her insistence on seeing more than what is there could possibly take her to crazy town but I don't see tptb going there Last time I checked none of the things ej has done has indicated any interest in more than fucking. Being kind to someone doesnt mean you're falling for them. I could easily replace Abby's name with Sami in what you wrote in your second paragraphs, given how he treats and treated Sami. But on the bolded, EJ is the one who has been doing the hurting. He only had to tell the truth instead of making jokes and openly taunting Eric while keeping the information he had secret. Information that if the police had, like a description of Dr. Fat Face, confirmation of the drugging and edited flash drive to go with Eric's words would have furthered the investigation for the police into clearing Eric's name without Nicole and Daniel going rouge and becoming targets, nearly leading to Eric and Nicole being murdered.
And he is still lying to Sami about Eric. Uncaring and unapologetic about hurting her family, hurting her in the process. He told her he has "come to believe" that Eric was drugged and raped. Implying that he was justified in his abuse towards Sami's twin, and Sami is dumb enough to believe him *again*

GIF requests?!
WilSon and Lumi Abigail's semi meltdown EJ/Sami/Abby
isn't that about 3/4 of the show? Haha! I am a total novice gif requests. I should be more specific. Lumi with WilSon scenes and Abby's last scene with EJ.

Translation: The writers aren't ready to let this story end. At this point, I don't know where there're planning on going with this storyline. I agree, I don't think Abby is crazy. I think she's just confusing lust with something else.

Now that Theresa has been brought down. I wonder what's going to happen once Eve is back. Its pretty obvious that Theresa and Brady are going to get involved and then comes Kristen (not really here for Brady and Theresa, I think her and JJ have more chemistry) Im sure Eve will come back to Salem and fall for Daniel. I really don't want to see Kassie/Eve as a interloper for Daniel and Jennifer. ENOUGH with this couple. I really cant stand Daniel/Shawn Christian. The man CAN'T act worth shit.

For anyone on baby bump alert... I think we got a hint today. Abby pushed her glass of red wine away, without drinking.

So, thinking about this: An entire Ejami scene today was dedicated to pointing out that Wilson doesn't know about the Nick/Percy blackmail. I'm doubting that was filler, and I think Wilson's ignorance of the blackmail is going to turn out to be important very soon.

That goes for any fictional character. I AM one of those people who find Abby to be an interesting character, so I wouldn't say I'm projecting. She is a character with so much potential, but I don't think this particular storyline is helping to develop that potential. Not based on the reactions that I'm seeing and not based on the fact that this has already been somewhat done with Austin. I do hope a change happens, but the way things stand right now, I'm disappointed.
And, just to make sure there's no further misunderstanding: I don't "ship", so this isn't about Ejami vs. Ejabby. I actually couldn't care less about that.
