I am going to be slammed for this but Marlena and Roman make a lot of sense. They were married, they have a lot to bind them and they're both unattached. Why not?
It's not like Marlena doesn't have a legitimate reason to be mad at John. He treated her like crap, then hightailed to Europe. Didn't contact her and even acknowledge her existence. Then came back to Salem without letting her know. She had to find out the Salem way, running into him. Why should she give him the time of the day?
I think Roman and Marlena would make sense as a couple, on paper. The spoiler about her sudden jealousy doesn't make sense, and they wouldn't make sense on screen though, because Roman doesn't click with the rest of the show.
I'd probably be okay with them revisiting Roman and Marlena if it was WN and not JT playing Roman. Heck, I'd be okay if the part of Roman was played by a Sesame Street puppet at this point rather than JT! Hmmm. You almost had me with the Sesame Street puppet--very persuasive alternative--but I'm gonna need WN. lol

If Sami forgives Ej for the affair then she really has no self respect left. :facepalm:
I think if someone should forgive cheating or not depends on the following; 1 Was it a short or long affair - Ejabby was a short one 2 Are there any circumstances that can explain why the affair happened - Ejami was at a bad place and wasnīt sleeping together. 3 Are there reasons to believe it wonīt happen again - EJ hasnīt seemed interested in Abby since he and Sami started sharing a bed again itīs Sami he wants. Plus if Sami doesnīt have self respect neither did Nicole when she took him back after he slept with Taylor and told her she would sell herself to the highest bidder. Anyway I think the writers might give JS a HEA for Ejami to make him more willing to come back. EJ had the "arrangement" clause get out with Taylor. That the relationship was supposed to be a mutually satisfying arrangement where he got "symmetry" plus a couple of other side benefits and she got access to his children.

About the Hope spoiler.....I can't get excited about Hope and Aidan until the show deals with Bo. I don't want Hope cheating on Bo or anything close to it.
Also, I am not that crazy about a supposed high powered lawyer and a police detective planning a gala and bake sale. Why can't Aidan and Hope bond over some sort of adventure. Something relating to their work.
KA and DC have an amazing chemistry and I love that DC was added to the cast but I just can't with this soccer mom/dad stuff.

I really hated Nicole and EJ's relationship at that time. EJ was a deranged asshole and Nicole was his little lackey. The relationship was just icky and abusive. I didn't get Nicole's motivation taking the kids from their mother and traumatizing them. I got EJ's motivations. He's a screwed up man who lashes out whenever something doesn't go his way. Besides, he was angry about Sami shooting him and then running off to marry Rafe. But Nicole's motivation was kinda weird to me. It was surprising that Kate was the sane person with common sense advise in that whole affair.

KA and DC have an amazing chemistry and I love that DC was added to the cast but I just can't with this soccer mom/dad stuff. At least Hope & Aiden's gala planning hasn't consisted of endless episodes of sitting in the pub, town square, or Club TBD discussing tablecloths and centerpieces. There's been a bit of a comedic undertone to their scenes. We had them losing their venue to a dominoes convention, their biggest contributor for the auction not going unless they had a date with Roman, Ciara telling Aiden she could make that date happen, seeing Ciara make that date happen, Hope finding out about Ciara & Aiden's plotting, and Aiden trying to get Mr. Dominoes to change the date of the convention.
And I have a feeling that, given the choice, people would chose to watch Hope & Aiden planning the gala over the repetitive nonsense that is Dan/Nicole/Eric.

Nick's Murder: Ken Corday says that they "didn't really want to drag this story out". The killer is revealed and exits the canvas.
Well, that settles that -- not that I ever had any doubt that it would be Gabi. Frankly, I'm more interested in the Will and Sonny preview than any of the previews that were actually posted, but that should come as no surprise to anyone. Yes it Gabi and that actually is a good way for Will & Sonny to be effected by the out come with out one of them being the actual killers. I agree that does settle it saying the murder exits canvas puts that task squarely in the lap of Gabi.

She battled baddies, went on countless adventures and I just don't see her planning boring ass gala. Society wives do that shit. Let her and Aidan do something more exciting and bond over a dangerous mission than this. But I'll still take what I can.
I hope they deal with the Bo issue before they move on to any relationship though.

Aiden doesn't strike me as the kind of person who's gonna have a relationship with a married woman, regardless of whether her husband's off somewhere on some "deep undercover" mission. I still think that whatever this "electric moment" between them is, it makes at least one of them realize that they might just have feelings for the other. I can't see them kissing at the gala, however. Especially with neither of them being in that frame of mind.
The show doesn't really do "adventures" or "dangerous missions" any more. Those all pretty much went away when TomSell took over. Now it's all about relationships. With the show having Countess W and Mad World, there should be a corporate battle storyline going on, but the show's too busy having Kate all wrapped up in Jordan's life and EJami shaking in their boots about Nick. No one's really trying to set anyone up, etc. There are just so many classic soap elements missing right now. TomSell really just like to focus on the relationship ones. And it doesn't make for the most exciting show. (I'm actually kinda longing for someone to find some "goop" and try to manipulate their way into possessing a whole reservoir worth of it. lol.)

LOL that would put Sami in good company along with Shawn D, Shawn D Sr., John, Bo, Hope, Rafe, last but not least Abe Carver because all those beloved characters have been cheated on they forgave their SO. Double standard much.

I agree. If you're waiting on adventures and dangerous missions for Hope you're going to be disappointed.
I actually like what they are doing with her character right now. I find Aiden and Hope's story one of the more interesting ones offered. I don't take offense to her being involved in her child's school functions. I see Hope as a woman who would try to balance family and work. She'd definitely be the type to take on a leadership role with the gala too. I don't think Aiden's profession should be a reason for keeping him from getting involved with this event either. He's obviously had a loss with his wife and is devoted to his son. I love the charming friendship we've seen develop between Hope and Aiden. It's a interesting set-up. Remember too that this is just the very beginning. They have a lot of options for further tales once they are established. I agree that the Bo issue must be resolved pronto, but other than that I think the writers are giving this couple a great kick-off.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
Don't get me wrong, I love them together and I think they have an amazing chemistry but I just want more out of these characters. This is Hope we're talking about not some lame character.

I love the charming friendship we've seen develop between Hope and Aiden. It's a interesting set-up. Remember too that this is just the very beginning. They have a lot of options for further tales once they are established. Yeah -- after the summer gala, there's always a fall gala and a winter gala they can plan together, and they could even throw a "win a date with one of the hunks of Salem" auction and a masquerade ball into the mix to spice things up! Maybe we can even watch them attend PTA meetings or organize field trips! There's truly no end to the array of great story arcs that being saddled with the responsibility of organizing all of St. Luke's Academy's fundraisers will afford these two characters! How exciting!
:sarcasm:
I'm not expecting adventures or dangerous missions (but I disagree with the assertion that the show doesn't really do those anymore; they might not look like the ones seen in previous decades, but they still occur -- Daniel and Nicole have gone on several in the last year or so), but I agree that bake sales and galas (that have supposedly been going on for years but have never been heard of before) are lame. There are much better ways to get these two characters to interact with each other.

Jennifer does something surprising which leads to a fallout between Daniel and her.
Marlena is jealous when someone else is interested in Roman.

There is not one ounce of chemistry between Deidre and JT. The focus should be on fixing the mess that the writers created when they decided to ruin the characters of John and Marlena and completely destroy the best love story in soap history just so Brady and Kristen could be thrown together.
Deidre and Drake are saints to put up with what has been thrown at them. It is so obvious that when they are in these awful scenes together that they are trying to give their fans a bit of hope....the sadness in their eyes....the way they can barely say the word divorce. They and there long time fans deserve so much better.

If Sami forgives Ej for the affair then she really has no self respect left. :facepalm:
I think if someone should forgive cheating or not depends on the following; 1 Was it a short or long affair - Ejabby was a short one 2 Are there any circumstances that can explain why the affair happened - Ejami was at a bad place and wasnīt sleeping together. 3 Are there reasons to believe it wonīt happen again - EJ hasnīt seemed interested in Abby since he and Sami started sharing a bed again itīs Sami he wants. Plus if Sami doesnīt have self respect neither did Nicole when she took him back after he slept with Taylor and told her she would sell herself to the highest bidder. Anyway I think the writers might give JS a HEA for Ejami to make him more willing to come back.
EJ had the "arrangement" clause get out with Taylor. That the relationship was supposed to be a mutually satisfying arrangement where he got "symmetry" plus a couple of other side benefits and she got access to his children.
I really hated Nicole and EJ's relationship at that time. EJ was a deranged asshole and Nicole was his little lackey. The relationship was just icky and abusive. I didn't get Nicole's motivation taking the kids from their mother and traumatizing them. I got EJ's motivations. He's a screwed up man who lashes out whenever something doesn't go his way. Besides, he was angry about Sami shooting him and then running off to marry Rafe. But Nicole's motivation was kinda weird to me. It was surprising that Kate was the sane person with common sense advise in that whole affair. When Nicole is in love she's irrational. And she loved Sydney.

I am going to be slammed for this but Marlena and Roman make a lot of sense. They were married, they have a lot to bind them and they're both unattached. Why not?
It's not like Marlena doesn't have a legitimate reason to be mad at John. He treated her like crap, then hightailed to Europe. Didn't contact her and even acknowledge her existence. Then came back to Salem without letting her know. She had to find out the Salem way, running into him. Why should she give him the time of the day?
I think Roman and Marlena would make sense as a couple, on paper. The spoiler about her sudden jealousy doesn't make sense, and they wouldn't make sense on screen though, because Roman doesn't click with the rest of the show.
I'd probably be okay with them revisiting Roman and Marlena if it was WN and not JT playing Roman. Heck, I'd be okay if the part of Roman was played by a Sesame Street puppet at this point rather than JT!
Hmmm. You almost had me with the Sesame Street puppet--very persuasive alternative--but I'm gonna need WN. lol Yeah, admit it. .. you just wanted to see Marlena hook up with Big Bird. Maybe at least we can get JT to speak in first person like Elmo? "Roman wonders what da hell?"

About the Hope spoiler.....I can't get excited about Hope and Aidan until the show deals with Bo. I don't want Hope cheating on Bo or anything close to it.
Also, I am not that crazy about a supposed high powered lawyer and a police detective planning a gala and bake sale. Why can't Aidan and Hope bond over some sort of adventure. Something relating to their work.
KA and DC have an amazing chemistry and I love that DC was added to the cast but I just can't with this soccer mom/dad stuff. I can't get excited about it either - Haiden that is. And I want desperately to be excited about something since I'm all depressed about EJabby and Ericole.

Nick's Murder: Ken Corday says that they "didn't really want to drag this story out". The killer is revealed and exits the canvas.
Well, that settles that -- not that I ever had any doubt that it would be Gabi. Frankly, I'm more interested in the Will and Sonny preview than any of the previews that were actually posted, but that should come as no surprise to anyone.
Yes it Gabi and that actually is a good way for Will & Sonny to be effected by the out come with out one of them being the actual killers. I agree that does settle it saying the murder exits canvas puts that task squarely in the lap of Gabi.
It could be T. Has anyone seen T lately? He hated Nick, maybe he killed him. :whistle: I've wondered about T as well, but I'm still holding out that one of the shots (I think there were two shooters) is Caroline and she doesn't remember or know she did it.

If Sami forgives Ej for the affair then she really has no self respect left. :facepalm:
LOL that would put Sami in good company along with Shawn D, Shawn D Sr., John, Bo, Hope, Rafe, last but not least Abe Carver because all those beloved characters have been cheated on they forgave their SO. Double standard much. I don't think any of those listed characters had pulled even 1/2 the excessive, obsessive, violent, ongoing, criminal crap on each other that Ejami has. Except for NightTime Hope throwing gasoline on Bo, have ANY of those characters tried to kill the one they cheated on or the one they cheated with? If they have, I need reminding.
And is Shawn D Sr. Grandpa Shawn Brady?
Now there's characters that Sami WOULD have a little in common with: Nicole, Kristen, Stefano, Peter, Tony, Andre, Victor, Kate, Vivian .. . and heck, have a seance' and talk to Nick. But of these names, I'm thinking maybe only Victor has actually tried to kill someone he was once in love with - Carly? And maybe Vivian back in the day? :shrug:
