I think the writers could have still written for GV even IF AZ didn't want Ericole anymore. They could have sent Eric back to the priesthood or hooked him up with someone else. I lay the blame on the writers.

I'd be much happier if she were the one leaving and GV were staying.
I'm not sure why both couldn't stay, and Ericole go their separate ways?? Couples split all the time and both characters remain on the show. I'd say for whatever reason, the writers weren't interested in writing for the character of Eric Brady? I'm sorry to see him go, but I don't think it was ever an either/or scenario. :shrug:
Yes, I also don't get this...but that decision was not on AZ it was on the EP and the writing team. After this show used Eric in priest mode for what I believe was a very successful run, they should have really had him go back to the priest hood right after Ericole broke up....before Serena and the elephant and all that has come after. No need for that crap. Nicole and Dan could have started a relationship with Eric looking somber from the rectory at what is transpiring and then Nicole gets her job back at the rectory and we have the real temptation coming into play. Heck I would have even married Danicole, with Eric officiating and having real reasons to stop the wedding himself but decides he can't do that....Danicole are married and then Nicole and Eric get closer and closer and one thing leads to the other and BAM, we get a ONS, that leads to an affair, which leads to Nicole being pregnant....who's the daddy would come out of that with Eric wanting to confess to being with her, but he can't because he is a priest....oh lord that damn story would have been so damn good....then the fall out would be Dan spying them making love one day and he would call the archdiocese for an investigation....Nicole would have a high risk pregnancy that would actually not end in a miscarriage or still birth and the baby would be Eric's....the story writes itself....but instead we get this disaster with Ericole barely on and when they are..>Eric gets drunk and and kills Dan.... I like this idea. Definitely better than the crap we're getting now. :rolleyes:

My frustration with AZ now that we can speculate the BI is about her, is that if she didn't like Ericole, how can she like Dicole? You know, if the argument would be she didn't like Ericole but the minute Dena came back on board she was on the Bricole bandwagon I would have understood, but Dicole? Aside from SC being her RL love they had NOTHING in that pairing. It's not like they wrote something great and awesome for Dicole in 2008/09 that they could go back to....back then Danloe was the couple that was getting the writing.... IDK, but I remember an early comment on Ericole from her, that sounded skeptical that Nicole could change, or that it would be a good direction for her on the show. So it might have been about feeling that some of Nicole's core qualities would be lost the way she was written in that relationship. (For me, it kept me from investing in Ericole, knowing that she was against Nicole growing and changing and having a real character arc.)

Which is why it's so weird because they went all the way with that (without an arc) to hook her up with Daniel.

(For me, it kept me from investing in Ericole, knowing that she was against Nicole growing and changing and having a real character arc.) and if that was the case, then she really had no confidence in that writing team...because the beauty of Nicole and Eric would have been that she didn't have to change at all...that he could love her with her faults, while they would occasionally get her in trouble (Shredgate)....I think Shredgate was stupid but the actual reason she shredded the documents could have made sense if Nicole would have overheard him talking about not being sure if he could make a decision to permanently leave the priesthood. Her 'old ways' would have lead her to shred the documents while we see Eric make up his mind that he was done with the priesthood regardless because he loved Nicole. It happened that way anyway, which is why I don't understand why Ericole was written so badly after that shredding thing....unless that is the part she was talking about...how Nicole was written to be so wanting to get his forgiveness than she pretty much forgot about who she was and didn't move on for months....

I agree, but she's a schemer and a manipulator. She is Sami's cousin after all.
She hasn't schemed since July I think. End of August right before she got my Xander thrown in jail. I'd like to see Xander get out of jail and them team up and play havoc. I'd give up Thrady for that.

Unless she just didn't enjoy working with GV, which can always be a possibility then I guess,there really is no other reason.... That's what I'm saying? Did she think Dicole was a great pairing for Nicole? Did she not think Ericole was popular? Did she not think about the history of the characters involved?
In any case, TPTB went along with it and gave her what she wanted I guess. But then again, they wrote out Dan and Eric which also makes me think they didn't want to write for Eric or Ericole.
I certainly don't think AZ was directly responsible for GV being let go, but her personal requests are partially why we didn't get Ericole at all after the FOL. No actor should be given that much story input. So disappointed. :glare:

Idk, Nicole still had her edge til Dan entered the scene again. When she worked at the rectory, she still went head to head with Kristen, Vargas, and slept with Brady. She still was snarky, but not the goody good she was with Dan. :shrug: I don't get how AZ was worried about her character changing during Ericole, but was fine with Dicole. Dicole did her character no favors. Nicole's relationship with Dan was toxic. She had to change so much while he remained a total tool. :soapbox:

I think she was disappointed in shredgate and she hated the grand apology tour.
If the choice was between apology Nicole and gold digger drink skuller nicole I can see why she would prefer the latter it's definitely more entertaining to watch.
I don't think she's ever been given a choice of an evolved Nicole who has her stuff together the closest I saw with that was under MarDar where at least she has the cahoonas to kick EJ to the kerb and leave him there despite the temptations.
They really should have let her be a kick ass single mum.
Although I also think Eric and resurrected love had great potential... ( but I think that could have happened with the kid around as well).

On one hand, I think I would be fine with Xander and Theresa pairing up to start trouble. On the other hand, Theresa falsely accused him of rape and he was sent to prison, so I would be okay with him getting out and getting revenge on her, while also interacting with Nicole. Xcole had decent chemistry. :)

If there's no Nicole I can see why there's less need for Eric and /or Dan.
I really don't see Nicole working with Deimos or Dario.
Or maybe she's decided she wants to work less at Days and not enough to warrant any focus.

I'd also be happy to have Vargas back purely to torment Theresa.
I can't see Nicole forgiving Xander for trying to kill Eric.

The AZ thing doesn't really add up for me. GV still continues to praise her till this day and he seems like he would have no trouble saying or showing that he doesn't like someone. I feel like he would be upset with her if he knew that she didn't wanna work with him.
Also, if she didn't wanna work with him, I don't think the furnace thing would've happened.
I still think it's very odd and idiotic that they didn't continue on with Ericole tho. They had so much chemistry and still have a strong fanbase. There must be something more to the BTS story, but I don't think it's that AZ doesn't wanna work with GV.

I guess this was the tea that Jamey Giddens was talking about. I believe this to be true and once again solidifies what a STUPID IDIOT KEN CORDAY IS, always has been and deserves everything that is coming to him and more. He's running the show into the ground. I think most viewers on this board could write a better story than Higley could EVER write.

Little BTS video of that photoshoot. I have to laugh because it reminds me of those wedding photos where the groom and the groomsmen jump in the air. LOL.

I think this interview was pretty early on, well before Shredgate. I don't remember it exactly, so I don't want to say she was against growing and changing. But it came across that she felt there were pieces of Nicole that she didn't want to lose and that might be at stake in this story.
