Yeah watch the ratings plummet and they will blame Deidre Hall, Eileen Davidson, and hell even Kassie Depavia, when really it will be because of Shawn Christian and the terrible character that is Daniel Jonas.
Actually it's the horrible writing...Daniel was tolerable before they made him the egg baby, gave him a random daughter & paired him with Jennifer.
Oh I agree about the writing for the character, but Shawn Christian hasn't really proven to me that he is that great of an actor. Good actors can act even through shitty writing. I don't think the current regime's writing for the character has been bad. It is his acting that hasn't improved.
Testify!

And Lord KNOWS he's been on our screen eating up time that he SHOULD have improved! :soapbox:

I was about to ask the same question. I didn't realize that Kate was working for Victor.
Victor does own Mad World.
I have a feeling that something must go down between Victor and Kate since even through Titan there by Victor owns Mad World he has stayed out of the business doing of Mad World up until now.
IF (big IF) it's has all been a ruse of Sami and Kate's to fool the Dimeras into taking over their company, then it might not be inconceivable (said in Princess Bride manner) that Kate would let Victor in on the plot since he'd love to bring Stefano down.

I sometimes have the hardest time remembering who works for who on this show. I know the businesses like Mad World, Countess W, Titan, Dimera Enterprises and would love to see more story come from the business ends of these people but because it's so briefly mentioned here and there, I forget who's in what! Lol. Regardless, Kate can or can not work with Victor, their angry scenes make me happy. :)
Titan owns Mad World and Kate basically runs made world but Victor might in fact still have the power to fire Kate since Titan owns it. I am wondering if Kate firing could Victor offer the job to Will that Kate is fired from... that could be issue for a lot of family.
Victor offering Kate's job to Will would be strange, weird, a load of wtfery, you insert the adjective. Victor seems a smart man and there has been no indication that Will has any talent towards business. Hopefully the job Will will be offered has something to do with writing since that would make more sense.
Victor is all about nepotism and spite. He might hire Will because he's a Kiriakis now and out of spite to humiliate Kate. But I agree with you about the experience. I hate it when everyone becomes an executive overnight.

I am not questioning the spoiler about a conflict, I am just saying Victor offering Will Kate's job would make no sense. If I understand correctly Kate runs Mad World and Will's only business job was as EJ's assistant and that was for his mayoral campaign not his actual company. EJ believing Will has some talent is a far cry from being able to run a company. Victor does not seem the sentimental type that would offer a job to someone unqualified because he needs to support his family.
I hope they don't abandon Will's writing ambition. Doesn't Victor also own publishing concerns? A magazine? Will could get hired as a junior editor - and perhaps, oh I don' t know, Eve could be his boss.

I like the idea of a character being a writer because while it's not that exciting to see them work, they generally work independently on their own schedules (unless they are a staff writer somewhere). As a journalist or a writer doing research, it could give Will an excuse to be different places and look into things. It's a good plot driving profession.
I would be disappointed if they got rid of Will's writing aspirations as well but I do like the idea of Victor possibly taking Will under his wing a little bit. That could easily cause conflict between Will and some of his family members...more so than if Will worked for EJ now since Sami is with EJ and Marlena appears to be OK with him as well. If Will worked for Victor then I can easily see Marlena, Sami and Kate all taking issue with it. Poor Sonny would be caught somewhere in the middle. We know that Sonny wouldn't want to help Victor out since he likes running his club and being his own man, but if his husband got involved with Titan or Mad World or another of Victor's business, that could possibly prove to be interesting. I like the idea of the main families warring just a bit again. Of course since it could be interesting, it probably won't happen... :shame:
Well, it Kami IS planning a coup to take over Dimera Enterprises, then Kate and Sami might be wanting to protect their loved ones/weak links. If they've let Victor know what's going on, then he could be giving Will a job to help him AND protect him from EJ/Stefano or at very least to keep him out of the crosshairs. I think it's all going to be related to the portrait of Kami hanging in Dimansion and or the EJabby reveal! :$

Damn it, all these speculations flying about that are including the main families and finally getting back to their businesses are making me want things...things that are going to require at least competent writing of storylines and scripts. I don't dare to hope. :unsure:

writing (journalism) not a guaranteed conflict with family members some of them for Will SOD specifically says that conflict exists and Will interned for EJ, during which EJ actual did think Will had a knack for the business world. Will working at Mad World for Victor with the fact that Lucas worked under Kate who loses a job that Sami works for C.W. that conflict with family no one does SOD say the family the conflict is with is Sonny..

Exactly. That's why there's less of a chance of it actually happening.

-John suspects Brady is using again calls him out on it.
-Theresa threatens to screw up JJ's relationship with Paige.
-Nicole and Sami get into a huge catfight.
-Daniel meets with a new patient who is a former resident of Salem.
-A major confrontation takes place at the DiMera mansion.
-Victor fires Kate.

Former patient? The first person I thought of was someone attached to Jordan. But Eve? Hm, kind of weird way to bring her back to the show, she just shows up at the hospital as Dan's patient and that's it? I think it should be bigger somehow. She should show up at a party or somewhere. Well whatever. But if she is actually Dan's new patient then it's a done deal there will definitely be something going on with them.

Hmmm, major confrontation? Between Stefano and EJ methinks. Methinks EJ does not want for Stefano to hang around Kate let alone marry her.

A Victor/Kate scene? :popcorn:

Yes please Theresa go where you are more wanted and needed and destroy that relationship and make JJ interesting again.

Also looking forward to Nicole/Sami, glad they aren't missing that beat.

Now, I hope this actually means that we are getting some new and fresh storylines going on like it sounds, now that the horrid Ericole crap is over and Gabi's exit is done with we really need to get this show on the road and there needs to be a major ignition of a spark in it, I hope this is what it means and what brings it about......

I think, it's both - the writing and the acting.

I really believe that SC is a nice guy and an awesome person but the way he delivers his lines is just insufferable for me. I think, I could tolerate his "acting" choices only if I knew he really had some serious health problems (I mean, with his lungs or bronchi) we don't know about. Otherwise, just no.

Hearing that SC was really great in some other roles lets me think that his workload is simply too high and that's why he can't do a decent job on "Days". I don't see it happening but I still hope TPTB will somehow realize this and we'll see him at least less.

And lemme guess, Brady throws a hissy fit, then starts beating up his father again. Kudos to John for not swinging back, although I'd love to see him use a nice ISA/DiMera Mercenary style choke-hold on Brady if only to tell him "I could snap your neck right now" before dropping him to the ground and walking away. Hopefully to go make things right with Marlena. *sigh* I do think though, that they are setting up some FB scenes for both Brady & Marlena when John is in his coma - they'll regret how they've treated him, blah blah... Is it just me, or is the glacial-pace of this storyline frustrating as hell? :frustration:

Theresa serves no purpose on this show except to cause trouble. Which could be fun if we knew WHY she did it. As of yet, we don't, so she can piss off. :flipoff:

Team Nicole. Especially after their last brou-haha when Sami threw Nicole's miscarriages in her face. :fight:

Eve. :shame: To the people out there in the cyberworld who have told me to not call Daniel "Dr. Douchebag"...I rest my case. He is. :coffee:

Major confrontation at the DiMansion? :popcorn:
Victor & Kate? :popcorn:

Darn it, I MISS JUSTIN AND ADRIENNE! Bring them back, please! :pray:

I'm so sad to see what they've done to DH's John. I don't even know who he is....that's a shame...

I really want Eve to be so much more than to be in Dannifer's storyline. Sadly, I don't think that will happen. I know that they are popular, but I just don't get that popularity...at all.

Nicole & Sami-- Same stuff different day. There's nothing else they can do? Really?

I'm almost fearful to ask for new writers...they may be worse than the ones there.

A few weeks ago, at Stefano's request, EJ was encouraging Kate to give Stefano another chance and said that he thought she wasn't as finished with Stefano and she claimed to be. And now we have EJ not wanting Kate to get back involved with Stefano? It would be nice if this show could remember what another writer wrote and they could all decide in what direction to go. :shrug:

So could I. In which case, TPTB should a)retcon Parker back to being Philip's kid; b)turn Melanie(offscreen) into an Alamain; c)undo Maggie being Daniel's Egg-mommy; and d)keep Daniel far, far away from the Deverauxes forever. If Dr. Douche is getting another insta-family bestowed on him, he doesn't need to have Jack's family too.
