It makes sense that she got caught up in her stepdad's seedy connections. Maybe he inadvertently put her in a dangerous situation which led to her current predicament and bitterness. Whatever it is, they need to spell out that backsory now because Theresa doesn't make much sense right now.
Ya know what? What a great story that is! I always wondered whatever happened to Phillip C and he WAS a part of Teresa's life for awhile. There's an instant story that could possibly play a role in why she is the ways she is today, bring Kim back (I'm trying) even for that arc and you have an instant way to make her behavior make some sense. They should have fan arc contests where fans can submit a small bible for various arcs that could be used. I'd watch this one!
Is Richard Burgi on another series now? Maybe he could come back. It would be interesting if he came back and PP and CS and dug into that whole off screen history. I'd be more interested in watching that than Dannifer crap.
I'd love for them to dig into Jeannie T's backstory and involve Phillip, Kim, Shane, and Andrew in it! It would definitely make more sense than having her be the token "bad girl" with no reason given whatsoever. Although I still stand by my (and many others) assertions that seeing CS onscreen with KDP as his daughter is too unbelievable.

Sami knows and I'm thrilled. I, along with others, are calling it. The reason I'm in love with the idea is this is the final year of Sami and I actually DO want her to be old school calculating in how she's portrayed these final months. The Sami we've seen over the past god knows how many years has been all over the freaking place but THIS Sami, a Sami who knows and waits until reveals could best benefit her for whatever reason, is a Sami I can get down with. It's been maybe since 2000-ish since I've said this wholeheartedly (and I do love some Ejabby) but #teamsami. Yup I just said it. They best not let me down.
I will go down with the ship believing she's known since the 2nd time EJ went out to the Horton Cabin. Right before he came back into the Dimansion, she received a text and it just showed her looking confused over it. Someone posted it awhile back here of her seeing it. I think someone (either Percy or Nick) sent her the pictures THEN! Or she was having EJ followed and off screen a PI sent her a text that EJ was at Smith Island with Abigail. Either way, I think she's known for a LONG time and AS is lying about what her character does and doesn't know. THAT would be the best way to dole out a "twist" is to have the actors lie about what goes out onto twitter and discussion boards . .. well, IMHO it is.
I don't think she's knows since then but I definitely think she's known since Nick's death which hasn't been that many days/weeks...Salem time....

That is why I think that AS was choosing her words carefully in that interview...she said she hasn't known all along as she couldn't keep it under wraps for so long and what we've seen (up to the point of the interview) was sincere and no agenda or revenge planning.....up until that point...or all along....

Yea, I dont think she has known that long. I really still think it's a ripoff to let her find out offscreen. I think both Ejabby and Ejami fans can agree to say they wanted to see Sami's immediate reaction to the news that EJ was getting his needs met by Abigail. But after the horrific fake out dream, the writers believe they can have the best of both worlds (even though I would call it by giving us two shitty scenarios).

Which is a legitimate complaint. And what do we know about the step-father? Maybe he was too busy and maybe he was seperated from her mother. Unless they give us Theresa's back story we don't know anything.
Jeanie seemed pretty well adjusted in this clip (around 3:20):

http://youtu.be/glmDsr9bZJs
Don't you know that kids are always well adjusted until they're teenagers? I can't remember Sam i being a brat until Ali came along.

This just reminds me that we need Andrew to come to town and talk some sense into his sister. Possibly both of them.
True, except for Ciara, LOL

I remember Sami and Eric sort of being brats (to John at least) when they found out John wasn't their real dad. Then when Ali started playing Sami, she was actually a nice teen until she wanted Austin and she saw J&M at Titan.

If that's the case and GG stated an interest in leaving, wonder if that played a part in changing up Jordan's secret storyline? I'm often more fixated on the behind the scenes stuff that what's on the screen. I'd be suprised, however, if Galen decided to leave as it IS a good paycheck but he DID express some aggravation tho. It's interesting.
If he is being written out I doubt he had anything to do with it. I would think it was because there really is no story for him anymore. Wasn't he brought on for Sami, then they tried to give him lots of family and that's gone now, and I don't think the Jordan story has been very popular... I think there are more reasons to get rid of him than to keep him at this point.
The reason the Jordan story has lost popularity is because they haven't told it. It's totally the last minute change that affected the pacing and I DO wonder if that had to do with an idea GG may not renew his contract. Time shall tell. It's interesting to me anyway lol
How can they gain popularity when they stall the story the way they did? It's been MONTHS of nothing. No forward movement and not even sweet couple moments to play. The actors were jipped! And today they drag Rafe down into the mud. That was such gross behavior coming from him. It's hard to gather up support for a man who growls at his sweet comforting girlfriend and then goes off for a fuck with a woman who has been after Jordan since she set foot in Salem. I don't think women are going to be swooning over his character when you turn him into a world class jerk! They better have a plan for Rafe because this is just the thing to make you want to wash your hands of him.

I still do not think that Sami Brady is smart enough to pull off this deception: Knowing what EJ did and plotting her revenge. If it happens that way, then I will be shocked.

Richard was just a thief on "Hawaii Five 0."
Hmmm... maybe he'd welcome a more steady gig.

Thanks!

My problem is that he LOOKs like he's 42. He was so miscast. Plus having him be with Kristen emphasized that a lot. I have no interest in that story because it's dependent on inventing history that neither happened on screen or off. Brady's entire sorased lif has been based on false history and nonsense. It's why I have a hard time with anything that is written now about his childhood or past, because it all comes across as ridiculous nonsensical vitriol. I fully expect this story to go on like this for a while until Brady comes to his senses and gets off the drugs again and we're back to him and John and Marlena being fine with each other. It's pointless and a waste of time.
Totally agree about the casting. I've had that issue since 2008.
Agreed I still miss Klye Lowder as Brady i just dont see EM as Brady.
KL was even worse casting if that's possible.

Yea, it sucks that they cast KDP as Eve.

I don't either. Sami finding out about this should minimum been a reaction equivalent to the Tasmanian devil through the Dimansion. But AS is leaving and thus she says we are getting old school Sami which I guess means she is now calculating and cunning.

Why on earth is EJ pushing Abby to help Sami with this wedding?
Because when Abigail kept making up excuses, Sami got suspicious and straight out asked her if there is a reason she does not want to be involved in the wedding. Ej changed his tune really quick and suddenly wanted Abi to be help so Sami would not be suspicious I guess.

The odd thing is it seems that Abby was waiting for Ejs cue to make a decision one way or the other. she was looking at ej for him to tell her what to do the whole time. Strange that she could not decide on her own how to handle it. :shrug:
It's the Stockholm Syndrome thing... :eyeroll:

Ok so far with Sami asking Abigail to help with the wedding: AS displays no nuances that what she says has any double meanings and the lines don't show that either. Of course that doesn't mean anything with this show...

Maybe Rafe's brother Dario could come back...from Mareen where he's currently dating Daenerys Stormborn...or Argentina or whereever he is. Honestly, Rafe still has connections to the canvas via niece Arianna and I prefer him 1000x to Daniel. I don't like this out-of-the-blue cheating on Jordan thing, and so I hope that lets her get angry and get some real backbone.

Seriously, I am warming to CS as Jordan more and more and I do think the show kind of screwed her with the slow build of her storyline. They just need to get it going, and I'm in.

I wonder if Eve will be involved as well.

Ugh this whole show just made me :yuk:

:wtf: is wrong with these writers?!?

Rate/Kafe is disgusting!

Sami asking Abby to be a bridesmaid was dumb!

Ben and Jordan talking and looking like a couple was disturbing!

JJ and Paige are sooo boring and wrong for each other!

And for the love of God, whhhhyyy does Eve have to be Dannifer angst!!

If this is all DAYS has for the summer, I have a ton of other stuff to do for an hour!

Good grief, DAYS..get your crap together!!!
I could not agree more.

I am going to Europe this summer for a month and obviously will miss all of July....it is going to be a MUCH needed forced break from this show....and might be what I need to finally just break away from it for good.
The whole month? Congrats & have a wonderful time. I will miss your snarky comments about the EJami wedding tho...I'm looking more forward to the PBP than the actual show.

Why not? Sami was an expert schemer. She's been scheming since she was a teenager. She stood toe to toe to Salem's villains when she was younger and had much less resources and connections. She can do it. Old Samantha Gene Brady can pull of any scheme. #TeamSami

Thing is, I'm not convinced he is supposed to be 40. Martsolf is, yes. He's probably 30s and before the Kristen mess, Brady seemed to have had a fine relationship with John & Marlena. John doing what he did was beyond out of character, but he still did it - so I think its an example of old issues coming out. I wish Brady would have issues with John not being there as an adult the last few years. Mardar created this ideas that they are grown apart as ADULTS and I'm still waiting for that story to happen.
My problem is that he LOOKs like he's 42. He was so miscast. Plus having him be with Kristen emphasized that a lot. I have no interest in that story because it's dependent on inventing history that neither happened on screen or off. Brady's entire sorased lif has been based on false history and nonsense. It's why I have a hard time with anything that is written now about his childhood or past, because it all comes across as ridiculous nonsensical vitriol.

It's pointless and a waste of time.

Clearly TPTB aren't interested in casting age-appropriate actors (even for their SORASed roles)! In 2008, they were too interested in finding roles for their favorite unemployed Passions stars. Who cares that EM would be playing a role at least 15 years younger than his real age? They needed to recapture that Ethan/Theresa spark and sibling chemistry between GG and LH. I actually liked Lindsay Hartley in both roles, but I could have done without all three characters being almost exactly the same characters on Days as they were on Passions, and EM as Brady was just wrong and they changed his character completely from when Kyle Lowder was in the role.

I'm just surprised they never brought Eva Tamargo on as Mama Hernandez, even in a limited recurring role. It would have made more sense than having her be off screen when all of her children had major events going on in their lives.

I´m pretty sure AS said it´s not gonna happen like that at all, and that some other theory on the internet was close to how things is gonna go down, so if Sami knows she lied.
