The instant dismissal of the story because Paul is involved is disappointing. Paul has no impact on J&M's relationship as Lysie mentioned the other day and he won't take away from their love story. She's still searching for him the way he's searching for her this week. I still want to see this play out. I'm dying for her to be there during the rescue. Which is he following week probably and not a part of this information.
I can't say I love every spoiler I have read but it doesn't take away from my excitement about this story for John and Marlena. It is ultimately about them and their love for each other.

Aw, so JJ does walk her down the aisle. Doug is wonderful, but I think there's something more poignant about JJ walking her down the second time.
I read the article and it sounds like JJ originally wasn't suppose to be at the wedding. KM wanted him to be there and for him to walk her down the aisle (wasn't in the script). She mentioned talking to Albert Alarr and Josh about it. She also wrote her own vows even though the show had written them for her. They went with hers instead. Kate and Billy didn't rehearse the vows because they wanted it to be just that one time and to honor the moment.
It's sad when actors have to do the work writers and producers should be doing.
But knowing Kate had a part in the words makes it more special IMO.

The problem is not Paul. At least not to me.
The problem is that John has other children we know for a longer (much longer, actually) period of time. And they aren't using them in the story. A lot of viewers still don't see (or aren't used to) Paul as John's son, especially since we've barely seen them interacting.
Brady is already involved in story (Summer) & so is Belle (Phillip/Shawn/Claire) so why not involve Paul too. He needs story too.

I was hoping we get vows! I'm going to be a blubbering mess! lol
I'll have tissues handy since I'm prepared to cry buckets. :wub2:

Those stories were written by the writers as well. And it's not that the "stories" they are involved in are all that important. They could leave their bubbles for quite some time and nothing bad will happen to "their stories".

I honestly have no issues with Paul's involvement in this story. He's doing nothing! Both Brady and Belle have stories of their own currently. Sure, they could've included either in Paul's place and it would've connected two separate stories together, but then Paul would still be doing nothing. At the end of the day, Paul is John's son. End of story. I applaud Griffith and company for using Paul to support John's story rather than using John to support a Paul story I care nothing about because I don't care about the character. Paul's supportive role over the last few months has actually made me like the character. So when it is time for Paul to get his own story, I won't mind.

I actually agree 100%! By inputting him into a storyline of a fan fav vet they are sorta giving him a heads up, letting the character grow on us organically rather than throwing him into a sea/bubble of his own in which we really don't care what happens.

ITA! If Paul is ever going to carry a story of his own that the fans will care about the fans have to care and empathize with Paul first. The only way to do that is to establish roots and ties to characters most fans already love and care about. If this stuff with John and Paul is done right it will add layers to not only John but Paul as well.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Brady is already involved in story (Summer) & so is Belle (Phillip/Shawn/Claire) so why not involve Paul too. He needs story too.

Is this somehow in question?

WTF is this? They don't even mention who their mothers are.
What is it? I can't see it.

I was thinking about all the layers of this John's past story and it could actually be really brilliant of written well. If history is respected and the beats are played. Adding in the tragedy of Bo's imprisonment will tie in the Brady's, adding Paul gives a new layer to a still new character who the audience can become vested in, victors role in procuring the treatment, and it is, as is being totted, a love story. In which John (maybe) finally realizes that who he is has very little to do with his parentage and everything to do with who he has become (Marlena's (provisional) husband, father, grandfather, all around Salems hero....I for one am excited to see it unfold and I have faith (however unwarranted it may be) that it could be done well. Drake seems to be feeling it so that's always a positive!

Yep that's what I wanted out of this. He closes the book on his past. His parents sucked. And he can focus on his life with Marlena and the kids.

And I love the angle that his dad was behind what happened to Bo. And maybe he likely worked with Stefano too from way back.

I cared about him more before they re wrote history for him....

I don't need a character to be biologically tied to the canvas to love and care about a character.

It's just lazy writing and I resent it.

Quite frankly I'd probably care more about Theresa if she was just a random character rather than someone trying to convince me Shane and Kim were negligent parents.

J&M and Family Fanatic!

I have a view in my mind of the Brady/Black family (sig) and I don't and never will accept Paul as a part of the family, but I'm open to see how this plays out. I'd rather see Brady and Belle involved but ultimately I'm glad that John and Marlena are involved in a big story and acting in character (HUGE PLUS). If I really get annoyed I'll just ignore the Paul parts.
