I think Sami/Nicole fights can be good if the dialogue is well written and I donīt mind ejole scenes either especially when they are being snarky with one an other. I think they have more chemistry opposite each other than as a couple even if I think they might have potentiell as a couple too. Still if the writers wasnīt going in Ejole direction maybe itīs better not to have them in scenes together than to give people false hope or just crumbs. |

I want Nicole to have a baby because she would finally have someone who loves her unconditionally. She would have that love that she has been craving all her life. I'd like to think that this would help her "heal" from her abusive past, giving her a better sense of self-worth. This could be what made her stop making bad choices. Obviously not overnight, but gradually. I don't think any man's love will be able to do that for Nicole. |

I also agree that they threw years of story out the window by not allowing Nicole to have EJ's baby. Ejole didn't have to get back together, there would be many other storyline possibilities. Instead they decided to cut all ties between the characters. Not very soapy, if you ask me. Other characters interact with their exes on a monthly basis, but EJ & Nicole haven't had a scene together since September 2013 (yes, I checked). I'm not gonna suddenly think they're reuniting or see it as "false hope" if they share a few scenes every month. I'd enjoy the scenes for what they were. Why waste the chemistry between the actors, not to mention the years of story they shared? |

Obviously I"m biased about the Ej's baby but I think a fertility storyline would be really good for Nicole. I've known a few people who have gone through it and it's really emotionally trying . It would be a good story for her to tell. jmo |

Kate accusing Lucas is a little bit interesting does she know or does she only presume Lucas took her gun. What is the unexpected custody request of Gabi regarding Ari's custody agreement... Will is never going to back down from wanting joint custody, Sonny going to stick behind Will on that so the request has to come from someone else ... |

I don't thinks its the reason she is leaving but I do believe she is leaving now to test the waters elsewhere because she ,like JS,is not getting any younger.Unless one is a character actor,women tend to have a shorter shelf life than men in the roles they are offered,and she knows she can come back so she is not really taking a risk.I see her coming back too because she is not talented enough to work movies,prime time series,or host a talk show unless she is one of many like the View .

Trying to figure out why Kate would think Lucas would take her gun. If she still carries it in her purse, lots of people could have taken it.

I have to say, I had been two weeks behind on Days episodes, I stopped watching on the 4/25 episode where Liam showed up at the cabin, and only now today picked up on the 4/28 episode forward to see the entire thing happening on Smith Island. But omg, I really have to say man this storyline was not only in vain, it made everyone look even worse than before. I mean, since Liam is dead and didn't get to tell anyone about Nicole, it makes Nicole look even worse because now it seems like she's glad he's dead, and everyone can blame her for that aswell. And all this stuff about her "checking his pulse" etc, and grabbing the evidence just makes it seem like all she cares about is saving her own behind, never mind that a person just died. I mean, it's a time like that that should make everyone see the light and confess to their misdeeds. But no, not Nicole. And not only does it make her look evil and even harder to root for than before, it's going all the more bigger of a blow when everyone finds out. She's gonna go down so hard. And as for her actions she should go down hard, no question. But still. I have to wonder about this writing for her. I mean, Gahd. And another note the same goes for Theresa. Now, I don't particularly like the character, but I was sure they would at least figure out and/or have her reveal the key thing. But no, they're still keeping that a secret aswell. Which means that is going to blow up someday too and will probably she'll probably have even more secrets piled up by that time to protect *this* secret so that she aswell can fall down as high as she possibly can. Now, as I said, I don't care for this character so for me it doesn't really make it any less uncomfortable but I'm mostly just surprised. I mean, I was sure that since it's sweeps and all, a time for when secrets and things usually come out, they would at least have some of these things revealed already. Oh well.

After she shredded the documents that cleared Eric, I don't see her love for him. She did something horrible to the man she's supposed to love and she started attacking Marlena and calling her names, as though Marlena made her shred the documents. Eric defended her and practically chose her over his whole family. It's hard to see how they can recover from this betrayal. |

You know I couldn't think of a better person who could be suited for a story like this. It could be an amazing success as a groundbreaking storyline of sorts. And at the same time, they would never touch a topic like this, nor a foreign adoption. Most likely they would have her buy a baby on the black market only to have it be someone else's baby and for her to have to return it after being a mommy for a year or so. |

Yea lol, I'd pretty much say the Fetch interaction is just icing on the cake... It's like they're trying every single trick in the book to make her look more unlikeable and unrootable... |

Yeap, I remember those scenes, they were at the club. And also, before that they had scenes in July 2013 at the school opening. So yea that's pretty much it. |

EXACTLY. And that is why I am so freaking annoyed. They took what was building up into a classically beautiful soapy romance and then fetched all over it. There were a million other directions they could have taken it if they wanted angst that would have not only made more sense but would have still left us rooting for Eric and Nicole in the end. All to prove what a magically superior couple they are, I suppose. |

And even had they still gone the route of having Nicole betray Eric so unforgivably, it still would have been a million times more enjoyable to watch if it had involved ANYONE other than Daniel finding out about it. |

I suppose the one good thing that could be said about the Smith Island events is that the end part of it, the sweeps part, was really more about Nicole and Eric than it was about Fetch...

But still, my God, on the 5/1 episode, Nicole is in the hospital waiting for her x-ray and Eric is all worried about her and loving her and as soon as he leaves the room all she can think about is how to get the original photo and smashing that phone with the chair............. what is she the devil incarnate...... major side-eye at the writing......... |

Nicole was always WAY more like Kristen than she wants to admit. She took a brief reprieve from it last year, but she's ALWAYS been more villainous than heroine. Forgetting kidnapping Sami's daugter, this is the same woman who put a hit out on Marlena. And yeah, she's become very unlikeable lately. Of course, I never liked her pairing with Eric in the first place, so I'm fine with it being over. I like Nicole as the bad girl. Now just give her a martini and a man as devious as her, and we're in business. |

Yeah I know what you mean. I also don't really mind if characters are written to be bad or villains, but it's the hypocrisy is that isn't going to sit well with me. That's the most when I'm at my dislikement for certain characters, when they get up on their high horses and pretend they're better than someone else. That I can't accept. (But I'm trying to avoid turning this to be about Kristen lol, because I'm trying to defend the awful writing for Nicole and I don't want that thwarted by anything Kristen vs. Nicole because then I can't be on Team Nicole anymore lol) Edited by Yoryla, May 10 2014, 05:41 PM.
