Apparently, Daniel Jonas, the Ejami/Ejabby saga, and the Eve/Jennifer war isn't doing much for the ratings or holding interest. Those storylines are pretty much the A stories and dominating the show for the whole month of July and they're boring me to tears. Ericole/Haiden's love stories are practically on the backburner and GV/AZ/KA/DC aren't even ranking high in the episode ranking list. So unless you are into Daniel Jonas, Ejabby/Ejami, Eve/Jennifer/Paige/JJ, there's really not too much reason to tune in except in spurts.

Waiting for next week's ratings.
I'm thinking even if the ratings do go up during the first part of the week there could be a big drop in the last part of the week. Or the ratings could show an increase and then the next weeks ratings will blow hard. The Dan/Kristen scenes got ridiculous and the whole scenario just has not been enjoyable to kick back and tune into. I really wouldn't have cared if Daniel stumbled upon Kristen and brought her back to Salem to the police station but the way they did it felt like a year and was too much. A shame!

I totally agree. I expect the same but we'll see.

Weird. Last week had some amazing scenes. Ali Sweeney has been killin' it. And I haven't said that in like six years.
Sure but the storyline sucks. I mean Kami taking over the Dimera Enterprises and EJ and Stephano playing dead. Enough said.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
I hate this more than any of that.
I wanted to love this week.

Really really wanted to love this week was actively willing to want to love it.

And I didn't. It was just Meh. It could have been so much better.
I can't wait for Sami to leave town-and I would be fine with EJ staying and that's like the total opposite of what I wanted a year ago.

No, EJ needs to go, too. His time has come and gone.

I'm hoping there'll be at least a 1.9 for Monday and or Tuesday. But not expecting any 2.0's or more. Sorry to say.

This show is a hot mess but I don't know that it's any worse than the scarf sniffing, double Rafe-ing, drugged up Carly, heart taken from chest Jennifer days of 2011.
I liked Fafe.... He was amusing and entertaining.
He sure was!! Galen played that part perfectly. I was mad what they did to Rafe--but Rafe 2 had his moments that I totally enjoyed!

I do agree with you--but I was just saying between EJ and Sami--I would welcome EJ back long before I would Sami. Sami is burning bridges all over town--and EJ had his burnt but built new ones with Abby. I wouldn't mind seeing EJAbby continuing down the road sometime and I will always be open to EJOLE for sure!
There are ways to save the show and build up ratings but TPTB are just to stubborn to do it! Let's start with more Lucas and see where that leads!
