I just caught up on the last 5 episodes from being out of town…. could a show drag out a wedding any longer??? I kept going to the next episode thinking okay moving on… and nope, more wedding, more reception…. holy cow
Comment by Sue — April 24, 2009 #
I really want Sami to be with Rafe. I dunno why. I usually loveeee Ejami but I just have fallen in love with Safe. I eventually want EJ and Sami to get back together but for now…. GO SAFE!!! hah and Arianna can get the hell outta Salem. So can Stephanie.
Comment by Chloe — April 25, 2009 #
It’s official On Monday’s epi Sami tells Rafe he was right about EJ!
Comment by happyme — April 25, 2009 #
Please tell me that the “rumor” that Daniel and Chloe give into temptation is true! I need more info, please. I know the writer for DaysCafe is a huge Danloe fan
I can’t wait for Danloe to reunite! It’s the main reason I am watching.
Comment by LJ — April 25, 2009 #
So what do you all think Sami and Rafe will do once they find out EJ ha Sami’s baby …? Sami will want her baby back and FBI Rafe will have some ideas to help, but what will they be?
Comment by ANNA — April 28, 2009 #
LJ, I am sure Dansea will happen cos spoilers say Lucas and Chloe start to have problems and the priest suggests marriage counselng.
Comment by happyme — April 28, 2009 #
I’m sure once everyone finds out about Grace and Sydney they will be PISSED! Espacially EJ! and he’ll find out that Rafe knew that Sami had been pregnant with EJ’s baby and he’ll want Rafe like, dead or something. It will just cause more stress on Sami and more complications for Sami and Rafe. I really hope those two can work it out. I love them. And Nicole? I don’t give a rats asssss what happens to her.
Comment by Chloe — April 29, 2009 #
I heard a rumor that EJ is going to be killed off, is this true?
Comment by margieminnick — April 29, 2009 #
naaa, it’s not true. EJ does not get killed. He might wanna kill Nicole when he finds out thr truth, though! But there is an interesting Nicole rumor – that Mia and Mel are both her kids har har!
Comment by happyme — April 29, 2009 #
woww. haha thats a weird rumor considering nicole cant have kids!
Comment by Chloe — April 30, 2009 #
Nicole DID have the ability to have children until about 8 years ago, when she was shot and was damaged inside so she could no longer have kids.It would be possible for her to be the biological mother of teens or a child born prior to that shooting.
Comment by happyme — April 30, 2009 #
1. Where does Mia live? Does she even have a home right now?
2. Chloe and Lucas have absolutely no chemistry. They don’t even seem to have anything in common. They are very ‘polite’ to one another. How boring is that?
3. Chloe and Daniel are crazy with chemistry. Perhaps they will be together again…
4. Stephanie does snivel. She’s a complete baby. Very annoying. She should be with an older man. She needs someone to help her grow up and stop being so sanctimonious.
5. Why was Rafe such an insecure wuss today? We need a strong, sexy man. This character needs to be beefed up a bit.
6. YES!!! A true, romantic, stand the test of time love story is due! But no one in Salem today has the chemistry staying-power — except Chloe and Dan. And their families are not a part of the core family tree.. (Hence the new, ‘old’ characters????)
7. Dan’s character has been a bit bland lately.
8. Kate’s ok as the manipulating, over-bearing mother.
Ok. That’s it for now. I feel like I left 2 items things off the list!
Comment by Daisy — April 30, 2009 #
Daisy, I agreed on 100% of your list!!! Bravo! I wish Rafe had manned up and gotten on that plane. I never have and never will like the Sami/Rafe match. She is meant for EJ!!!! I know Chloe will be pissed at me for saying that cause she is in love with Rafe but I’m sorry. I wish that Phil would blow off Snivelephanie. I wish Max would grow some stones and buzz of the skinny and immature child, Chelsea. I am sick of those couples. Max and Arianna, Rafe and New York, Chloe and Daniel, Sami and EJ, Kate and Roman, Bo and Dope, Melanie and Philip, Nicole and Strychnine, or if she has to live, Nicole and Brady, and finally Will and Mia, are the only acceptable couples for Salem in my humble opinion.
Comment by Caesar the Great — April 30, 2009 #
Well, Chloe don’t feel bad if you disagree with Daisy or Caesar the Great. I disagree with them about practically everything they just wrote. And it’s not because I’m in love with Rafe. Although I still prefer him with Sami, instead of E.J. They talk about Rafe not mannin’ up, which maybe a little true, but E.J. doesn’t exactly man up either, we all know he hasn’t exactly stood up to daddy, except like a year and half ago when he told the truth about John Black. Lucas and Chloe are though, like the worst couple ever. But everybody has the right to his/her opinion. That’s what makes it fun. But don’t let em make you bad Chloe, if you disagree.
Comment by Carrie — April 30, 2009 #
I mean’t make you feel bad Chloe. Philip and Stephanie get on my nerves most of the time too. But I totally disagree about Rafe/Sami. If people think Nicole of all people is too good for E.J., then they think him and Sami make a great match. Sami’s no saint, but she’s growed up a lot in the past year,in my opinion. Also I couldn’t stand a Brady/Nicole pairing. But I’m not trying to disrespect somebody else’s opinion. Like I said earlier, that’s what makes it interesting. I will say this though, these die hard E.J./Sami fans disrespect you if you disagree with them sometimes.
Comment by Carrie — April 30, 2009 #
I’m sorry if I offended anybody though, I know what it’s like for people to make you feel like you don’t have the right to diasgree.
Comment by Carrie — April 30, 2009 #
I have watched this show since I was a very small kid (with my grandmother in the summer). I am now 41 years old. This show needs some better lines! Some of this stuff is DRAGGING on forever! i really would like to see Sami and EJ together again but that will take EJ going back to the way he was! I love Rafe but Sami is EJ’s. EJ can be so sweet and sexy at the same time.Not this fake EJ we have now. Come on writers, get the show back on the road!!!!
Comment by lark — April 30, 2009 #
Nichole/EJ…they wanted and married each other…let it be!
(Please)…Sami and Rafe should be together and build a wonderful life like her mom and John, Uncle Bo and Aunt Hope.
Comment by Donna — April 30, 2009 #
Casear, I agree with you about the couples, only what to do with Lucas? I like Lucas so much better now that he is only Sami’s friend.I watched yesterday’s episode because I wanted to see Sami’s reaction for myself(about her being in love with EJ)and I must say that the look on her face says it all, she still is, and she still just doesn’t want to admit it, Rafe was the closest replacement to Lucas that she could find(you know how she feels that she HAS to be with a “good” guy)other than that I must say that I haven’t missed much at all, the whole situation is still so boring,and I was completely annoyed by watching Sami, fake cry, grovel and plead with a guy that she has known for about two seconds, I mean really, who cares??? Rafe, in my opinion, comes across as a world class wuss,who may not be all that bright to boot, hey Rafe the writing is on the wall when it comes to Sami and her feelings for EJ,I guess we can add not knowing how to read to the list of things that Rafe doesn’t know how to do.
Comment by Lisaday — April 30, 2009 #
Just watched today’s Days. I just want to say that Rafe is a Nancy Boy!!! He is as insecure as a pimply faced adolesent. Its sickening! And you people want him with Sami??? You know who has grown some balls (pardon the expression ladies)??? EJ!!!!! I am proud of him. He is letting Nicole know the deal under no uncertain terms. I am loving it. He is basically saying don’t let the door hit yah where the good Lord split yah if you don’t like the Dimera plan. And, he is starting to get on the trail of the big deceit played by Nicole. He is getting more sinister. I was his biggest critic but now am becoming a fan. Now if Philip will shrug off Snivelephanie and go on with his plans. Melanie my baby rallied around him today. That made a huge impression on Phil. This is furthering my hopes that Mel/Phil will happen someday. I wonder how they cast this girl to play Steph in the first place. Does the new Steph look like the car racer type??? She is whiney and too girly girl for the role. Bad decision on the part of the people in charge of casting in my opinion. The red headed Stephanie was much more believable and credible in that role. Recast Recast Recast atlast oh Days Gods!!!!!
Comment by Caesar the Great — April 30, 2009 #
I was going to quit watching DOOL I wasd so tired of the Nicole/ E.J. show THEN along CAME Rafe/Sami story and I,m hooked on DOOL again .I tape so I can ff threw Nicloe/E.J.sceans.Istill like James/ Arianna just not together ,That every day was just TOOMUCH, It was over kill.
Comment by patsy — April 30, 2009 #
I like sinister EJ too, like Caesar. He was too funny when he told Nicole the conversation is finished! Rafe neede to get his machismo back, like how he was when he first appeared. I understand May 18 is the day Sami and Rafe do he deed … Now what about a new woman for Lucas? Someone his height. I cannot wait until Chloe and Dan are back 2-getha!
Comment by ANNA — May 1, 2009 #
Now hold on a minute Carrie. No one is piling on Chloe here. Everyone has their opinions and no one means any disrespect, least of which, myself. Don’t be too sensitive. I don’t want to have to think you are the Days Cafe’s version of Snivelephanie. As for Sami and Rafe, spare me! Like Lisaday says, “she has known him for what, two seconds”? Why can’t Rafe be Sami’s fricking former body guard and let it be?? Why does there have to be some stupid love affair that developed in a few weeks with a guy that is a defect from another soap?? Not EVERYONE has to be hooked up for goodness sakes. And Donna, I just wanted to look in my closet and find and dust off my violin after your comments…sheesh are you kiddin me??? Uncle Bo and Aunt Dope??? You must have relations in Salem I don’t know about. See, Carrie, its not about Chloe, I disagree with many. Its nothing personal.
Comment by Caesar the Great — May 1, 2009 #
The bottom line is Sami just doesn’t want to be alone. C’mon, Lucas is married, EJ is married, who else is left??? She is desperate cause she is running out of men to ruin and the number of dependents is climbing. As for Lucas, he is also an odd man out. He is an immature, loud mouthed, lad who couldn’t find love if he had a fist full of 20 dollar bills in a whore house. He needs to just take a break. Good night all.
Comment by Caesar the Great — May 1, 2009 #
One last thing. Rafe’s behavior as an agent for the FBI has been unprofessional at best and down right rediculous at worst. No wonder he’ll likely be a greeter at Walmart next week. No agent would ever let his emotions compromise his duties. Its just not realistic!!! Then he doesn’t even bother to inform New York about his change of mind. He just blows off the plane@!!!! What a joke.
Comment by Caesar the Great — May 1, 2009 #
Carrie, yessss someone loves Sami and Rafe too! Ha its good to have someone agree with me! But yeah Its not that Rafe has to man up, he just doesn’t want to waste his time with Sami if she’s in love with EJ. I mean, I wouldn’t want to waste me time on a guy if he loved someone else. Rafe may come across as a little wussy, but being an FBI agent takes some serious manliness to do that. Moving on, to be honest I hated the old red headed Stephanie. I’m sorry, but she was uglyyy. You gotta atleast be decent looking to be on a soap opera. But the Stephanie now is even worse. All she does is whine, cry and wear nasty outfits to go along with her nasty hair. Ha thank the Lord that Arianna is Rafe’s sister! I’m so happy! Ha I was so worried she was gonna be like, his ex-wife or something like that. Phewww. Ha and yeah where the heck does Mia live? Does she even have family in Salem? And where does Rafe live?! He eventually will move in with Sami though. Ha I hope Melanie gets with Philip. They’re both hardasses:) Stephanie is too much a goody good girl for Philip. He needs a real woman.
Comment by Chloe — May 1, 2009 #
Can’t wait for May 18th. Haha I’m for sure getting that episode on itunes
Comment by Chloe — May 1, 2009 #
I love me some Chloe but she shines when she is with Daniel..NOT Lucas.
Like I said, I need some more info regarding the rumor that “she and Daniel give into temptation”.
Can anyone (Mr/Ms. DaysCafe) clarify this for me??…at least tell me it is NOT just a rumor..LOL
Comment by LJ — May 1, 2009 #
I think if it was an official spoiler, they would’ve posted it on a spoilers page. We just gotta wait – and hope …!
Comment by ANNA — May 1, 2009 #
I read in another spoiler that a medical student will be coming to Salem and he is said to be the father of Mia’s baby. He and Mel eventually hook up. I also saw this rumor and hope it’s not about baby Grace: Sami realizes EJ’s always going to be a threat, so she goes to Rafe, they “declare their love and consummate their love” mid-May. Rafe volunteers to act surrogate daddy to Grace, but in June, tragedy awaits.
Comment by Deb — May 1, 2009 #
Yeah Grace dies I thinkkk
Comment by Chloe — May 2, 2009 #
I don’t want any of the babies to die but if that is the case, maybe it’s the beginning of the end with the whole baby switching thing and it will come out that Nichole stole Sami’s baby, etc.
Comment by Deb — May 2, 2009 #
Anna..thanks for ‘hoping’ with me. It’s interesting that the rumor is worded “Daniel and Chloe give into temptation” and Daniel DOES say to Kate on Monday’s show “Sure – she gave into temptation” LOL (hope it’s not just a coincidence).
Daisy – loved your top 8 -looks like Daniel might get his “spunk” back when Kate confronts him.
Go Daniel!!!
Comment by LJ — May 3, 2009 #
Deb, I really hope your right about the baby awitching thing totally ending. It’s gone a little too far.
Comment by Chloe — May 3, 2009 #
You know I no it,s just a soap but it realy scears me when the fans cheer a babystealer ono.n.Makes you wonder what ythis world is comeing to Are there no morals left in the world .
Comment by patsy — May 4, 2009 #
I think by now we are all fed up with Nicole the baby stealer and just want that to end
Comment by happyme — May 4, 2009 #
Does anyone think that Mia has a connection with Dr. Baker other than his patient…like a family relationship?
Comment by Nik — May 4, 2009 #
You are right Happyme, We DO want it to come to a resolution!! I like Nicole as a character on the show though. Without Nicole, it would be much duller. However, I don’t condone baby stealing at all. I don’t like what she represents at all. The story line is fun albeit dragging on endlessly. What I also don’t like is keeping expendable characters on the show and firing veterans. Snivelephanie and Chelsea add no value whatsoever to the show. If you got rid of the riff raff losers on the show, ie., the above mentioned plus
Rafe, Maggie, and Dr. Baker you could afford to get some of our beloved stars back. And enough already of people falling deeply in love after knowing each other for 10 minutes, ie., Snivelephanie (Philip) and Sami (Rafe)!!!! Lucas cracked me up with his variations on Rafe’s name. Poor Lucas needs a real woman. Chelsea is no good, Sami was worse, and Nicole was worser!! Hee Hee, I know worser is not a word sillies!!! LOL! Is the fact that Chelsea going to London means the end to her career on Days? Some of you gossip buffs can help me out on that. Otherwise, she is a CHILD and needs to go to school and get herself together instead of going to London to do what for Billie??? Like she is gonna add anything to her recovery…sheesh!!! C’mon, Billie had a friggin car acc. She doesn’t have terminal cancer for chrissakes. Let Kate go if someone needs to go. Kate is the mother anyway. A bit more important I think. Well that’s all my rantin and ravin for one day. Peace 2 everyone…..
Comment by Caesar the Great — May 4, 2009 #
Jennifer and Jack are there anyhow and can take care of her when they get back from where is it this time, Africa???? I thought they went to the moon on Space Shuttle Challenger. Also, is it not funny 2 ya’ll that these ding dongs on Days can just fly off on a whim to anywhere in the world without batting an eyelid. I don’t know what Chelsea does for a living but to fly to London on a moments notice would cost a fortune!! She’s not the only one. Okay, ranting really over now.
Comment by Caesar the Great — May 4, 2009 #
It sounds like Melanie and Mia are going to have a connection. I guess they look a little alike. I would say that Melanie’s dad got her mom pregnant and left her. I don’t think thou that Nicole is involved with either of them. I do hope that Brady gets together with Rafe’s sister. They would make a good couple. He needs someone nice.
Anne
Comment by anne — May 5, 2009 #
ooooooor, maybe Melanie and Mia are fraternal twins. I mean they are about the same age so Robbins took Mel and Mia went with the mother.
Comment by Deb — May 5, 2009 #
Why!!!do they always give Nicole sexy cloths and Sami drab teenybooper cloths.To me Sami is just as sexy as Nicole maybe more so Please dress Sami like the sexy woman.to where E.J. would eat his heart out every time he see her.
Comment by patsy — May 5, 2009 #
Mia and Melanie must be about 4 years apart. since Mia is 16 still in high school and Melanie is 18 or little older. sounds like they are matching her up with someone from the hospital that is 25.
Anne
Comment by anne — May 6, 2009 #
In reply to Caesar – it definitely looks like the end of Chelsea, as there’s been no mention of re-casting her (well, so far anyway).
And as for the whole falling-in-love-in-10-minutes, I have to agree with you there – Sami needs to find herself first before getting herself into another r/ship. Maybe Rafe will be a casualty in the Dimera/Kiriakis war; EJ will realise Nicole is a deranged freak and try to make amends with Sami; Sami will move on from Rafe’s death (as she always does with every guy in her life) and will finally reveal to EJ the secret about Grace/Sydney & will become the supercouple they were meant to be.
Oh and Stephanie will fall into a coma and die. And that shall be the end of the ranting, raving, confused little girl she’s always been.
Comment by Sabiha — May 6, 2009 #
EJ is too tall and thin for Sami. It makes her look silly. Furthermore, he is a killer. Sami would need to become a dark character to be a supercouple with him at this point. Rafe and Sami are better suited and he at least doesn’t make her look fat.
Comment by ANNA — May 6, 2009 #
does anyone know when Max’s last air date will be?
Comment by ANNA — May 6, 2009 #
What you need to look for is on screen chemistry. EJ and Sami def. had that the night they conceived “Sydney”. Chloe and Dan have chemistry as well but as far as everybody else on the show? Not so much. I might as well watch a dog lick a bone or something. Although I do think that Sami and Rafe show more of an on screen chemistry than any of the other couples right now.
Comment by Deb — May 6, 2009 #
Deb, yeah your right with the chemistry. haha Lucas and Chloe are a friggin joke! NO chemistry whatsoever. And EJ and Nicole I guess have some, but I’m just not feelin’ it with them. Stephanie and Philip are just annoying. He peoposes to her on Friday or something like that! I mean come on! Sami anf Rafe have the best chemistry! I love them together. But I have to admit no one will ever compare to the chemistry that EJ and Sami had. That was the absolute best.
Comment by Chloe — May 6, 2009 #
Sami could never look fat under any circumstance.I guess that’s what happens to people’s perspective when all that is seen is skinny,anorexic women that try to keep the body of a little girl, instead of embracing the fact that they are not supposed to have that body type throughout all of their life, women are intended to naturally have curves,to be shapely and sexy is not the definition of fat, and Alison(Sami) embodies what a woman is supposed to look like, unlike some others on the show who look like they need to be held down and force feed pizza, bread,hamburgers, and potato chips 5 times a day for the next month.(Hope, Chelsea, Nicole,and Stephanie could all stand to gain at least 20 pounds) It is sickening and disturbing to watch woman starve themselves in order to try and please an industry that has a warped sense of what makes a woman beautiful, and it is even more sad to feed into that crap, the way that Sami looks should(her curves or weight) never even be a consideration for who she is paired with, because as far as I can tell EJ, Lucas and Rafe have only become or became as popular as they did because they were all paired with the very talented and beautiful A.S.
Comment by Lisaday — May 6, 2009 #
Stephanie and Nicole are slim, not anorexic, FYI. Now, to get back to gossip – which is what this board is supposed to be ahem – what do y’all think will happen with Rafe’s past? Who will have been the love of his life from before? Mia’s mother? Nicole’s sister? Someone already in town?
Comment by happyme — May 7, 2009 #
I understand the gardener is FBI and has been gathering info on the DiMeras as in infiltrator pretending to be a double agent.
Comment by ANNA — May 7, 2009 #
Too funny! When Philip wants to trade Stefano for Stephanie, Victor’s answer is no. haha! http://www.dayscafe.com/sneakpeek.html
The trouble with Steph is that this character was cast as a shallow girl in a bikini who became a shallow ho in the sky who became a shallow sorority chick who became rich boy’s shallow girlfriend. Nothing has changed. The acting hasn’t improved either.
Comment by happyme — May 7, 2009 #
First of all, Lisaday, I was amused by your chatter about the paper thinness of Salem’s girls. I agree. Chelsea looks like she dines from a bird feeder. Snivelephanie could use a meal or two as well. I don’t see Sami as fat or thick though. She is beautiful and has meat on her bones unlike the above mentioned undesireables. Sami can’t be fat, she plays the role of A.S. on Biggest Loser. Hope’s face is sunken. Nicole will get fat after she loses EJ when Sydneygate is exposed due a sudden eating binge. Secondly trading Stefano for Snivelephanie is like trading a Bentley for a Gremlin. Snivelephanie + 5 million dollars and we’ll talk turkey mister!!!!! Happyme, you are awesome too!!!! I loved your assessment on Snivelephanie. Keep it coming!!
Comment by Caesar, aka, Steve — May 7, 2009 #
Rafe is only popular IN HERE!!! Plus he is a putz who now I come to find out has a history of unprofessional behavior in the line of body guard duty. Go back to where you came from Ruff, Raff, Riff………uh…er…uhh..Rafe!! Get out of town and let Sami and EJ resume the amazing chemistry that started in the hallway of their apartments 2-3 years ago.
Comment by Caesar, aka, Steve — May 7, 2009 #
I guess Americans have gone back to the old days when tubby was beautiful. So be it. And this link is for you, Caesar, to enjoy all the pro-Rafe talk teehee!

Comment by ANNA — May 7, 2009 #
I’ve been watching for 40 yrs…sick of all these baby couples…the best couples are…Bo & Hope,Steve & Kayla, Shane & Kimberly, Jack & Jennifer…those ere the good old Days…
the only ones now that whould be any good are Brady & Nicole…EJ is a &*%$
and get Sami & Lucas back together..they know eachother the best and who other than Lucas can put up with her
forgot to say John & Marlayna…they are great too
Comment by eilloc — May 8, 2009 #
didnt rafe see nicole’s fake belly when he broke into the mansion – why is he not remembering that?
Comment by leeniee — May 9, 2009 #
I think that Nicole was wearing a robe covering her belly at the time. So, here is some interesting gossip. Nicole and EJ will becomes Mr. and Mrs. partner in crime. It will be tough for Sami to get her baby back from EJ, that’s for sure …
Comment by happyme — May 9, 2009 #
Rafe and Sami do not have a great on-screen chemistry. It seems forced. EJ and Sami have always had a great chemistry and have a destiny to fulfill. Chloe and Dan have TOO much chemistry when on-screen – almost feel like someone needs to hose them down. Kate – seriously needs a man in her life.
Comment by daysfansince5 — May 10, 2009 #
I think that Sami and Rafe have great screen chemistry as evidenced on Thurs and Fri shows. I think the writers and actors are doing a good job of building their love, little by little, insteady of just having them jump into the sack right away. At last Sami is being honest with herself about her feelings. I think they could become DAYS next supercouple which the show desperately needs!! Lucas has been a loser with so many women, Chloe and Daniel won’t last, Nicole and EJ are too evil to become a supercouple. I think it would be great for Sami and Rafe to work together to build a family and work against the Dimearas. Rafe must have secrets about his past, though, since Sister Agnes and Arianna have already alluded to them. If he wanted Sami to be upfront with him, then he needs to tell her about his past, too. All in all, though, I think they are the couple that DAYS needs to hold this show together. The others are either gone or trite. I have watched Days since the late 70’s with Alice and Tom and Doug and Julie, Bo and Hope. This is the couple that, to me, has the most staying power of any in a long time. I agree— Kate needs a man and to stay out of her kids’ buisiness already.
Comment by Gail — May 11, 2009 #
Kate seriously needs to leave the show. The only thing she ever does is meddle in her kids’ lives instead of getting one of her own.
Comment by Deb — May 11, 2009 #
Comment to Daisy on Rafe— I think the writers are purposely making Rafe look softer for awhile, to show us he has more than the tough FBI side that he had when he came on and to show that he can be with Sami in all aspects, as a lover and a father to her kids. I would guess he will toughen up soon—especially in the case of Grace and the DiMeras. He will have to be tough to keep Sami in line!!
Stephanie needs to go— she is sickening. I expect her to break out in a chorus of “Stand by Your Man” any time now. She was sure miscast in that role. Can you imagine a Kyriakis man married to a whiner like her? Come on!! Brady also needs to man up here, too. Enough of the rehab stuff already– take your place in the Kyriakis family or leave. He needs a feisty woman— maybe Arianna will be the one– then she can leave Rafe and Sami alone.
Comment by Gail — May 11, 2009 #
I understand that Kate will get even more meddling but then apparently Lucas starts to get his memory back about the night of the explosion. Good. Chloe and Dan are HOT!
Comment by ANNA — May 11, 2009 #
Amen , Deb. kate’s role has gotten old!! Everytime one of her sons gets a woman, she does all she can to break it up. Enough already. She needs some new lines and a new role. I heard she was going to be on a network or cable show– maybe that will be her exit off DAYS.
Glad to see Victor is getting feisty in his role. About time. Some of these characters need more depth– Melanie for one. She has whined,whimpered, and flipped her hair for how many months now. Either get her a guy and a part, or get her off.
Comment by Gail — May 11, 2009 #
I am glad to see Lucas will get his memory back. He and Chloe are a definite mismatch. Chloe is way too hot for him– she and Daniel are a definite hot match!!! Lucas has been the loser with every woman he has had. Get him a new role or a woman that fits him. It’s not Sami or Chloe, that’s for sure. Maybe it’s time to move on with some of these characters. Like– where is Maggie Horton’s husband, Mickey? She has a house, but he’s never there and she is always hanging out at the Java Cafe giving advice. Speaking of the Java Cafe– it’s getting old seeing all the characters walking around with empty coffee cups, pretending to sip coffee that doesn’t exist!!
Comment by Gail — May 11, 2009 #
Apparently the guy who plays Mickey now says he thinks they forgot about his character poor guy!
Comment by happyme — May 11, 2009 #
They must have forgotten him because he hasn’t been on for ages!! He just kinda disappeared one day and never came back.
I am also right on with those of you who have had enough with the baby-switching deal. It’s time to end it already, but I hope when they do, the writers have enough savy to not let one of the infants die. We have already gotten the idea that baby Grace is not well with her recuring fevers.
The babies need to be with who they belong to— Sami and Rafe need to work together to resolve the issue with Sydney and bring her into their family, not the Dimeras. This should not be an issue to pull them apart, but to show the fans that they are a solid couple with staying power.
Comment by Gail — May 12, 2009 #
Is anyone else excited about next week’s Sami and Rafe episode where they finally make love??? I heard they even move in together!!! How about the spoiler for June when “tragedy” strikes for them? I am guessing that this has to do with baby Grace. Anyone else have any thoughts?
Comment by Gail — May 12, 2009 #
It would be nice to see Grace actually be reunited with Mia and Will can help her raise her since he practically is already. I can imagine it would be very hard for Sami to let her go…..unless Mia decides she is better off staying with Sami, therefore Sami will have both Grace and Sydney and Mia will still be able to spend time with her. Can anyone say “open adoption”?
Comment by Deb — May 12, 2009 #
I dont like the idea of rafe adopting grace, what are these writers thinking? Sami and Rafe are barely in bed together and now he wants to be her baby daddy, what happens when EJ finds out that Grace is supposed to be his?
Comment by isabel — May 12, 2009 #
Haha! Arianna will figure out that EJ fathered Sami’s baby. This’ll be good …
Comment by ANNA — May 13, 2009 #
Good thought. I had heard that they may be thinking of having Mia let Sami just raise Grace because she realizes she would be better off with her, but then is Sami going to raise both the kids??? I was wondering just how Rafe is going to adopt Grace when Sami has told everyone that she already adopted her. And if Rafe is going to move in with Sami and adopt Grace, shouldn’t he be getting a job soon? I am sure he will end up working in some capacity for the Salem PD, but it better be sooner, rather than later.
Just a suggestion for the directors– how about having the actors playing Rafe and Daniel take Philip and Lucas aside and give them some pointers on how to kiss a woman cause they certainly don’t know how to make the scenes with Chloe and Stephanie romantic and believable. There is just no screen chemistry between these couples AT ALL. When you compare these couples to Sami/Rafe and Daniel/Chloe, well– there is just no comparison. The scenes look forced and awkward, at best.
On yesterday’s show, EJ said all he wanted was a family life and that he would like to run away with Nicole and Sydney to a deserted island somewhere. Maybe that is what they have in mind for them to do– and Sami and Rafe can go after them to get Sydney from them. Any ideas?
Comment by Gail — May 13, 2009 #
Oh— I think that Arianna is going to figure out a lot of stuff pretty soon. The spoilers say that Arianna will giving some pretty “cryptic” talk to both Nicole and Sami either this week or next. That should prove interesting — like just what does she know already??? Obviously there is something in Rafe’s past with a woman and a child, as Arianna got incensed when she found out Sami had 4 kids and told Rafe he couldn’t be with her. No doubt she is going to try and break up Sami and Rafe, but I got the feeling from Rafe’s glaring looks at her that this time, he won’t let her succeed.
Comment by Gail — May 13, 2009 #
I do not like seeing Safe together. I feel it is forced writing/acting. All the Santo and Colleen scenes from last summer seem to be tossed out the window. So many fans were routing for Ejami to be together, then Rafe comes into the picture, they throw them together in a safe house and force this apparent ’super couple’ theme and everyone is on the band wagon (or so it seems). It does look like they will be together for the long haul….unfortunately. They are turning EJ into his father. I liked it when Sami influenced him to be a better person. He was very genuiene then and their chemistry, attraction and story line was captivating. Also — the baby-switching bit is so old it’s ridiculous. I’m so over it. I don’t even care if queen b1tch Nicole keeps Sydney. I just don’t. They’ve dragged it out too long.
Comment by Alison — May 13, 2009 #
Sammi needs to get back with EJ. It’s only right considering their chemistry, kids together and she is the only one that can keep him on the straight and narrow. I really like Rafe but just not for Sammi. She needs to be with one of the father’s of the kids. I am hoping it ends up that both twins are EJ’s as well. Sami’s list of men are crazy and adding another one is crazy. It would be nice to see Sammi and EJ like Marlana and John. I think Rafe could hook up with Nicole. I do like both Nicole and Rafe on the show. It would also be really cool if Rafe is still working under cover for the FBI and it would also be great if Mia and Melanie are Nicole’s kids. It would make for some interesting story lines. Also, I think that Dr. Baker is either working for Stefano. Before Sammi went into witness protection it was has if Stefano new she was pregers. What ever happened with that scene when Stephano had that piece of paper with Sammi’s DNA in his hands. What was that all about? Dead end story line I guess.
Comment by Ang — May 13, 2009 #
They will keep the baby story on going where they can keep Nicole/arianne on the show every day , and keep Sami/ E.J. APART.iAM SO TIRED OF THIS STORY LINE.iT IS SOOOOO BOREING..I like SAFE.and a couple of other story lines ,but tired of Nicole.
Comment by patsy — May 13, 2009 #
Anyone else feel that Rafe is still FBI, but working undercover? He was supposed to be going to NY to work for Homeland Security, but there is no way that they would hire an FBI agent who had been let go for improper behavior. My husband worked for them for 5 years and that would NEVER happen. So, I am figuring that it is just a cover story for him– he asked for a transfer to NY b/c of Sami, but then when they got together, he asked to be put back in Salem. Remember, when Rafe got the NY phone call, he took it in secret, even when EJ wasn’t there, so we have no idea what transpired. I think he may have been hired to be more than a bodyguard for Sami to begin with— maybe to spy on the Dimeras, as he did break into their house and told Nicole he found what he was looking for.
How about Arianna??? All of sudden she appears as a waitress at the Brady Pub. There has to be more to her, also. She didn’t seemed surprised that Sami and Nicole both had babies on the same day and that they were girls. Any thoughts out there??
Oh– also, don’t forget Stephano knows about Doc Baker and he had the DNA sheet, so he knows the entire story, no doubt. Then again, maybe Grace isn’t EJ’s and he knows that, too. I just agree with everyone who says the baby story has been dragging on forver, and now that Doc won’t be back for a month, they will drag it out at least that long. Does anyone think that Rafe may know that Grace isn’t really Sami’s baby and that the babies were switched??? Is there more to Rafe than we think??? he has to have a more in depth part than just Sami’s boyfriend and lover.
Comment by Gail — May 14, 2009 #
I agree with you Allison. I like Rafe, but not with Sammi. Ej and Sammi all the way! They have great on screen chemistry. So do Daniel and Chloe – wow. I too liked it when Sammi influenced EJ to be better. I loved the Santo/Colleen segments. I’m excited to see more of Daniel and Chloe. Poor Lucas though. It might be ok to see Rafe with Nicole. I just really don’t like her. She always gets away with everything. I’d like to see the writers do something with EJ finding out about Sydney and maybe Nicole taking off with her and Sammi and EJ going after her to get Sydney back. For the Dimera’s being so smart, they sure are being doopped easily.
Comment by Jill — May 14, 2009 #
Ijust wished they would get the baby story over with, I am so tired of seeing Nicole every day .I hope E.J.and Nicole loose every thing .Then we,ll see how much she lovesE.J..
PS Ido love Rafe andSami together BUT Ialso love EJ/SAMI TOGETHER until the writers ruined their love story.They will probable screw up this love story too.
Comment by patsy — May 14, 2009 #
Ejami fans give up James want to be withArianne/Nicole and he being the Star gets what he wants.
Comment by patsy — May 14, 2009 #
I’s love to see some stories from the past revisited. A dinner club where the characters can eat and be entertained. Let there actually be someone with morals who says no to sex without marriage. And I do get tired of the cleveage. Love Bo and Hope – needs better story line. Love Sami and EJ together. Victor and Caroline need to refind their love and please can’t Micky die and Maggie fall off the wagon in her grief and then find new love. Like Daniel but can’t stand Chloe. Maybe Daniel and Nichole. Like Brady and Lucas too! Find them a deserving woman.
Comment by Patsy Ann — May 15, 2009 #
Regardless of who James actually wants to work with, which I’ve never read he had a peference other than that he praised Arianne for her acting scene when she lost the baby; bottom line is that he signed a contract and needs to adhere to what the writers write for him. Not to mention, Allison Sweeney openly admitted in an interview that she wasn’t thrilled to have a storyline where her love interest EJ (at the time) was someone who ‘raped’ her but she followed through and pulled it off tremendously. That is what a good actor does. Anyhow, I like Gail’s previous post and idea about Rafe…I’d love to see him be on an actual FBI mission and in fact play along with this whole charade just to try and bring Stefano down…that’s actually very clever, too bad the DOOL writers can’t be so cunning these days. Then after Sami realizes he was using her to get closer to the Dimera’s she will feel betrayed b/c he wasn’t completely forthcoming and she’ll push him away and BAM…go running back to EJ!!!! Haha…ok…back to reality. I’m boy-cotting the May 19th episode! Who else is with me?!!!
Comment by Alison — May 15, 2009 #
Dude i’m definately NOT boy-cotting the May 19th episode. I’ve been waiting for this forever! I’ve been counting down the days. Like, literally. I can’t wait
Sami and EJ are great but Sami and Rafe are hot right now and plus EJ is kind of a douche baggg. I absolutely LOVE Sami and Rafe!
Comment by Chloe — May 16, 2009 #
Main players can indeed make demands in contract negotiations. I find it funny, by the way, that the plan is to swap STEPH-A-HO for STEFANO! Like koolaid for fine wine! Steph and Owen should be the next supercouple haha! Go Owphanie go!
Comment by happyme — May 16, 2009 #
I read that baby Grace dies.Why??????IS IT SsAMI IS THE ONE THAT ALWAYS GETS HURT and Niclole gets to be happy.
Comment by patsy — May 17, 2009 #
The Sami show has never been good for ratings. That character needs to grow up already. On Monday she attacks EJ and breaks his cell phone. Zzzz.Will has way surpassed her in maturity. In a few years she will be like a crazy bag lady.
EJ has become a very interesting character, I bet when Stefano comes back, he will want him to remain in charge for a lot of aspects of the family biz. Maybe he will be front and center and we will not have to be subjected to Nicole lurking in every scene he has. Honestly, is she redundantly annoying or what! Overkill!
And pardon my straight talk, but Rafe needs to get a job before he gets laid. Would love to see him still with the FBI or join the Salem PD. Make him more than Sami’s unemployed love slave, please!
By the way, if you are over the age of 30 and you “boycott” this show, they could not give a rat’s ass. The advertisers favor younger viewers. Hence the newer younger cast members like Mia, her soon to be arriving cousin, etc. I think we are seeing more teens and 20 somethings and a few 30 somethings get the main stuff.
Comment by ANNA — May 17, 2009 #
I am hoping that the writers are finally having Sami grow up with her pairing with Rafe. He has called her out on her lying and coniving and wants the truth from her about her feelings or he won’t be in her life. He made that clear at the airport and at the JAva Cafe. I think that Sami has finally realized that she can and needs to be honest with a guy to keep him. The lying deal doesn’t work anymore.
I think Rafe is still with the FBI and has been all along. He was sent to not only guard Sami, but also to investigate the Dimeras, which he is still doing. Remember, he told Nicole that he found what he was looking for when he broke into the mansion. I think his applying to the Salem PD was a cover for his really still being an FBI guy. He just seems too savy about EJ and is overly protective of Sami with him— more than jealousy IMO– more like he knows what is up with them and is genuinely scared for Sami and her kids.
I love Sami and Rafe together. Finally, a couple who has taken their time getting to know each other before they make love. Not like many of the other couples who jump into bed with each other at a drop of a hat. We have seen their romance and love blossom over time. He loves being with her and her kids and just making her happy. No angles that we can see, as of yet and I don’t believe there are any. I personally think that the Sami/EJ story is over.
Lucas and EJ are Sami’s past and Rafe is her future.
Can’t wait for today’s and tomorrow’s episodes.
GO SAFE
Comment by Gail — May 18, 2009 #
Patsy- I read today, also, that Baby Grace may die. I would implore the writers to nix that idea. Having a child die is too tragic. I remember reading in an interview with Kristen Alfonso how hard it was for her to do the shows when Zack died. I can’t imagine ALi and Garen, both with young babies, wanting to do scenes like that. C/mon writers– you can end the baby swtich better than that. Having one of them be sick is one thing, but to die— no way, please.
Comment by Gail — May 18, 2009 #
Gail, I love you theory of Rafe still being FBI. That would be exciting and keep his character strong, too.

GOOD SHOW TODAY !!!!!No Nicole I get so tired of seeing her face every day I want to unplug my TV.If it wasn,t for E.J. sSamiand Rafe I wouldI love Sami and Rafe BUT i ALSO E.J.and Sami.Its hard to say witch one I want with Sami, their bothHOT.

Hey, Gail
Love the way you have Rafe and Sami’s story line going! Love this couple together! Could this be another John and Marlena, with all the things that
happened in their lives and still knew they should always be together, no matter what, because their love was so strong for eash other!
Hoping Rafe and Sami’s story line gets better and better!!!
Comment by Donna — May 18, 2009 #
Gail- finally someone loves Sami and Rafe together. Everyone is still hangin onto Sami and EJ getting back together thing. Honestly, it’s probably going to happen. I wish Sami would stay with Rafe and EJ?…. Well he can be aloneeeee. And yes i loved the whole Rafe being an undercover agent investigating the DiMeras. It seem like to me that the writers aren’t smart enough to think of that though. They need to check some of your guy’s ideas cause they’re awesome! Anywayy, I can’t wait for tomorrows episode
Comment by Chloe — May 18, 2009 #
Neither of the babies should DIE. Maybe Grace can get really close to dying but not allll the way! It’s said when a baby dies it just makes me wanna cry. They’re so innocent and cute. I hope Grace doesn’t die.

Is Sami and Rafe going on vacation or something THEIR NOT IN THE spoliers after next week?Their the reason I watchIguess we,ll have two week of Nicole and E.J.Sory i guess I,ll be ON VACATION TOO

Chloe, you and Gail aren’t the only ones that are a Rafe and Sami fan. I am too. I don’t care what these Ejami fans think about it either, they can call me stupid. Also, I hope Brady gets with Arianna, even though i think she’s a smart ass. Brady and Nicole is just nasty, I think.
Comment by Carrie — May 19, 2009 #
Anna, Donna, and Chloe– I see we are all on the same page with SAFE. Love them together. They are the couple that DAYS needs to be a good show again. I don’t know how long you all have watched, but I have been a DAYS fan since the late 70″s when they had great romantic couples like Julie and Doug, BO and Hope, Jack and Jennifer,etc. The show desperately needs this type of couple again. Yesterday’s episode showed us that SAFE will be that couple for DAYS. I think Sami put it best at the Java Cafe when she said that “reality smacked me upside the head before it was too late and I did something stupid” and “I don’t want my past to ruin my future”. She knows she has a good thing with Rafe, that he loves her for who she is and what she has and she loves him, too. Notice when Arianna asks Rafe is Sami is rich or a rock star in bed– he doesn’t answer because that is not what is most important to him. Her looks are just icing on the cake. I heard that Ken Corday said that Sami and RAfe are the new Marlena and Roman– tragedy struck Marlena, too and Roman was the bodyguard that she fell in love with. Sounds like much the same idea, doesn’t it. GO SAFE!!
Comment by Gail — May 19, 2009 #
I think that I saw that Sami and Rafe are in an episode about having a confrontation with Nicole. I think this is when she may find out that Rafe is planning to adopt Grace and starts panicking. I don’t see how they can leave them out of the story too much with the supposed tragedy with them coming in June. Like June is right around the corner.
I will be super-ticked if the writers decide to separate this couple now after all they have been through. How do we complain??? VOice our opinions?
Comment by Gail — May 19, 2009 #
Rafe and Sami are also about the only reason I watch anymore too. Finally a couple that are sweet and romantic and didn’t have to fall in bed right away, like most others on the show. I love Peter Reckell (Bo), but they show him maybe once a week. I was really happy to hear about his emmy nomimantion last week. I would love if he could win. I think he got robbed when he wasn’t even nominated when Zack died. Actually he and Kristian Alfonso(Hope) both were robbed. I also see no since in killing baby Grace off either. They could do this without killing off another child. only my opinion though.

You know every one blames Sami for the way E.J. is now .The way i remember it ,eE.J. was chaseing after Nicole like a dog in heat when he and Sami were liveing as man and wife. How could Sami possiable love him when he was acting like that.It was no bodies falt but Nicoles .She goes after all of Samis men
Comment by patsy — May 20, 2009 #
Jill,
The Grace dying thing is just an internet rumor that has been floating around for the last few months, as Grace will have a complication of some sort in June, but it does not mean she will die. It will probably be a life or death situation, though. Another rumor from a while back was that Wes Ramsey would be Mia’s father, though now we know he is just the crazy gardener!
Comment by happyme — May 20, 2009 #
OK. So I read yesterday on two different sites that in the next week or two Rafe will take a job as a construction worker, but that it will probably be an undercover job, which fits my idea of his still being an agent. Now, we have all heard that there is a June tragedy– perhaps that tragedy is that Rafe gets “hurt” on the job– you know how dangerous those jobs can be — especially when Nicole will be desperate to get rid of Rafe. He is trying to adopt Grace which will complicate the baby switch and remember, he told her that he found what he was looking for when he broke into the mansion. This tragedy is supposed to affect Rafe, Sami, and Grace and this would certainly do that. Of course, he won’t die– Dr. Dan will save him– but that could serve to bring Sami and Rafe closer.
I don’t think the tragedy has to do totally with Grace, as Dr. Baker isn’t even supposed to return to Salem until the middle of or late June.
In think things are going to start to unravel for Nicole quickly here. She as gotten rid of Tony and I predict she will try and get rid of anyone else that she feels is a threat to her and Sydney.
I absolutely LOVED yesterday’s show with Sami and Rafe making love, and that’s what is was– making love– not just having sex. It was soft, loving, gentle, and sweet. There was so much passion there– just not the tear your clothes off kind. Just what I wanted it to be with them. Rafe is obviously so in love with her and she is with him. The fact that he told her she is all he has ever wanted and that he loves the fact that she has four kids and wants to be a part of her complicated life, to me was sooo sexy in itself. Who wouldn’t want a guy like that???? I also thought it was realistic seeing as she has a baby– like who hasn’t been “interrupted” when they have an infant???
I didn’t necessarily care for the choice of music or the singer, but I thought the words of the song were perfect for the scene– softly, gently, you are all I have ever longed for and wanted. Super!!
Hope to see more of this loving couple very soon.
Comment by Gail — May 20, 2009 #
happyme— I hope you are right about the Baby Grace dying thing. That is just not the way to go– it would be too tragic for too many characters. I, too, think they will have her get very ill, and maybe be near death, but that they will stop it at that point. That will probably be the start of the unravelling of the baby switch. I wonder if Nicole will take Sydney and go on the run with her? Maybe EJ will go with her, if Rafe and the FBI are after him.
Comment by Gail — May 20, 2009 #
Just read on another site that for the summer there will be a tragic turn of events that makes it important for Sami to learn the truth about the baby switch. Explosive secrets are revealed and repercussions are devastating to Sami/Rafe/EJ/Nicole. Nicole feels guilty about what she has done and betrays EJ to help Sami. Sami investigates Rafe’s past and finds out there is another side to him.
Now, for me, I find it hard to believe that Nicole helps anyone, let alone Sami, but herself. I am sure that Sami finds out some things about Rafe that she didn’t know before. I think we all know that there has to be more to him than we have seen. I just hope that she is accepting of whatever it is since he has been so accepting of her past.
Comment by Gail — May 20, 2009 #
Hmmm…just thinking…tradegy doesn’t necessarily mean death. Who’s to say that Grace could be kidnapped. Sami and Rafe then go on a mission to find her but when they hit a road block and Sami knows she needs more help; she seeks out EJ to finally tell him the truth and have him pull out all his men to search for their baby girl. That would be great!! Sorry, I don’t dislike Safe but want to see her with EJ — I think I just always will.
Comment by Alison — May 20, 2009 #
Yup, that one has been floating around for a while but I think if Stefano had known all along, he would have said something a long time ago, and he would not have been so harsh with Nicole a little while ago. For him to be the first one who finds out would be pretty much routine, since the phoenix knows all LOL. Sami will get her baby back by autumn is my guess. What say you all?
Comment by ANNA — May 21, 2009 #
Anna– I was wondering if Stefano is willing to forgive Nicole since she did come to him and EJ and tell them that she knows who invaded the mansion— that it was Rafe, posing as the cable guy. She said she did it to prove to them that she was a true Dimera. Now, she is helping and supporting EJ with all his plots to get his father back.
I hope that Sami does get her baby back by fall. I just hope that she and Rafe will not part ways because it is EJ’s child, although he already knew Grace was and Johnny is, supposedly. Being a super SAFE fan, I want to see this couple stay together and raise a family. We need some stability on this show.
I just heard the gossip for the summer that Rafe’s secrets about his past are about to “come to light” and that Nicole secretly tries to help when Grace is in jeopardy. Now those are pretty vague– could have a lot of meanings. I would imagine that we all realize that there is more to Rafe than meets the eye ( which to me is a LOT– what a fine looking man). Perhaps, Nicole feels guilty about baby Grace knowing that she switched the kids around, but I can’t imagine her helping out if it didn’t somehow benefit her. What do you all think?
Comment by Gail — May 21, 2009 #
Sami Rafe PHILLIP and Stephy are doing a GREAT job.Ialways said that if the writers would write for the others like they do James/ej andARIANNE/Nicole they will find the other actors can do just as good a job OR better than JAMES & ARIANNE
Comment by patsy — May 21, 2009 #
About this whole Sami/Rafe thing. If something or someone is too good to be true, then it probably is. There is something just not quite right with Rafe and I’m sure we’ll find out soon. He’s too perfect which means he has one ugly past.
Comment by Deb — May 21, 2009 #
Nicole has always been a bit of a lightweight in the dramatic stuff (she says all her lines pretty much the same way) but I mean hey she’s gorgeous, she can be a good Stepford wife. As for James, he is doing a FANTASTIC job as the tormented mafia heir and I enjoy this show right now only because of him! As for the Rafe past thing, I agree, he is too good to be true. Hopefully he doesn’t go psycho on Sami so she needs protection from him!
Comment by happyme — May 21, 2009 #
I agree that there is something lurking in Rafe’s past– maybe something to do with the Dimeras?? I think that the nuns at the convent hold the key to that. The fact that Sami said several times, “you are too good to be true” makes me wonder. I am sure part of his issues are with another woman in his past and maybe a child, but I would agree that that is probably only the tip of the iceberg. I just hope whatever it is, that it will not be a deal breaker for SAFE. Sami certainly has had a sordid past herself. So, to be unforgiving and judgemental of someone else would not be quite right. Besides, they are a good couple together and are, from what i have read,helping the popularity of the show a lot.
Patsy– i so agree with you about the writers. I read on another site where viewers were complaining about Bo and Hope being boring. They are only as boring as the writers are making them be and that goes for the others as well. If the writers would write as good for all the actors as they do for some– the s/l would interest more people and the show would be more successful.
Comment by Gail — May 22, 2009 #
Oh– forgot to put this on my last post— as much as I like Rafe and SAFE– it kind of bothers me that he is so much into Baby Grace. It kind of makes me wonder—-is he into Sami b/c of Grace? I do think he loves Sami, but I wonder if it would be as much of a thing if it weren’t for her kids. Maybe his not having a family growing up has something to do with this. Any ideas????

Comment by Stef — May 22, 2009 #
Spoilers say that Stefano knows a secret and Nicole is shocked! I bet he knows about the baby switch. Don’t know how long he has known, but now he has leverage over Nicole so as not to expose her to Elvis. He is probably pleased to have Sami and EJ’s baby, (right up his alley, the whole kidnapping/switcharoo), but not too happy about Nicole lying to EJ. However, I think he sees the value of being able to hold this over her head. He can now use her to help him influence EJ if need be. I can just see EJ gowing a bit of a conscience and not wanting to go along with something that Stefano has planned, only to have Nicole swoop in and convince him to go along with evil pappa Stefano.—Stefano can really turn her gears now b/c she would lose EVERYTHING if he told the truth. **HOPE this is where the writers are going with this, sounds entertaining !!** imo
Comment by okie dokie — May 22, 2009 #
I love SAFE! they’re perfect! does anyone else think the Owen is
A) a terrible actor
and
B) an even worse kidnapper?
I mean cmon, push annoying little steph into the wall of the morgue and leave her there. He’s also really creepy, and I kinda hope EJ has him killed for messing the whole thing up. Im pretty sure I could kidnap stephanie way better. Anyways I am a Dimera fan, IDK why really, they’re just smoother operators I guess. Plus I hate phillip and his cheesy smile. him and steph are perfect bc they are both horrible! And arianna is rude, I am not a fan. I just want this baby switch to come out! I start working next week and I’ll be missing it. =[

I have also read on a spoiler that next week Rafe will get his construction job, which, I figure will probably just be a cover for his undercover work. Maybe some of that has to do with his past,too. Could he be a product of a Dimera affair with his mother? Could he be a child of Tony’s that no one knew about?
Ashley– I hated those scenes in the morgue, too. They really creeped me out. Owen, unless the beef up his character some, is a joke. I did hear someone say, though that he may be a double agent. That should get him killed off by one family or another, right??
Comment by Gail — May 22, 2009 #
I think that Mia is Rafe’s daughter therefore Grace is his grandaughter so that’s why Rafe is so attached to Grace. We never hear anything about Mia’s mother except that she had lots of men come around and that’s why she wanted her baby to have a stable life with Nicole. Just a thought
Comment by idea man — May 22, 2009 #
Thanks for agreeing! Today was even worse, I man he creeps me out to the point of wanting to jump through the tv and hit him! haha. he ruined everything and I’m pretty bummed. EJ should have just said im giving her back weirdo now bring her! i hate owen more than i hate phillip or stephanie haha. and yes whoever has him killed will be A=OK with me haha. if he is a double agent he is the WORST!
If rafe is mia’s dad that’s crazy, is there really any truth to that? I am in awe of all of your wiseness. I am addicted to days and am sorta sad my job will interfere haha. especially since from what I read its about to get even better.
Comment by Ashley — May 22, 2009 #
1. I love EJ & Sami – great sexual tension!
2. I loved Nicole when she was funny and wicked.
3. Bo & Hope are the new John & Marlena.
4. Lucas and Stephanie need to hook up and diappear – Lucas is the worst actor, Stehpanie is not much better – she fails at sexy, she annoys at whiney and she misses the mark at being a good girl, she is a dumb girl.
5. Thank goodness Brady has an interest, let’s get him a little dirty!
6. Rafe needs a new woman.
7. Can Caroline and Vic have a fling? Also, I love one-liner Vic – love him.
8. Did I say Lucas was boring enough? Even when he has an exciting story line, he is boring!
9. Dr. Dan – I feel sick – help me!
10. Maggie, the new Alice – where is Alice…she needs a cameo, or they need to say goodbye.
11. EJ & Sami – back together, fighting his slippings to the dark side, her dark side and back to him calling her ’sweetheart’. Love them, I watch just waiting for them to have a scene together.

I saw a picture of ALI/SAMI IN THE SOD in a red dress .You know she is without a dought one of the most beauit women in Holly woodd.You don,t have to have leggs that go all the way to her eyeball to be sexy.I love her eyes
Comment by patsy — May 23, 2009 #
I totally agree with number 4. I hate Lucas when he tries to be tough its pretty pathetic. And why doesn’t he notice Chloe and Dan giving each other weird looks in front of him ALL the time. Seriously. And Stephanie is terrible in every way, no one would really ever want to date her, or even be her friend really. So total agreement.
Also agree with loving Vic’s one liners, they’re awesome.
I also love sami and ej, but idk, i’ve grown to rafe too so idk. i do think ej and sami have more chemistry for sure.
Comment by ashley — May 23, 2009 #
Lucas is not boring, he just happens to be NORMAL haha! I hope Rafe is undercover, secretly reporting to Bo. Bo is great as the commiss. Wait till ya see Monday’s show. He is tough with Victor alright! EJ is a fab villain indeed! Very Godfather. His lovelife is secondary to his role as a DiMera anyway. So Mia never told her boyfriend she was preggers OMG! Maybe his parents will want the baby …
Comment by ANNA — May 23, 2009 #
I have been watching the show for over 20 years and I think that Rafe and Sammi are great together. EJ and Sammi are not good together he should stay with Nicole. They should bring someone else to Salem for Lucas. Chloe and Daniel get on my nerves Chloe needs to come clean and tell Lucas the truth but, I dont think that Chole and Daniel should be together either their chemistry is too strong for day time television.
Comment by Freda — May 24, 2009 #
I wonder what Stefano will REALLY do with his knowledge of the baby switch. He will have Nicole available to his beck and call now.
Comment by happyme — May 26, 2009 #
Does anyone else think that Grace becomes very ill, but doesn’t die and that she will figure into continuing this s/l? Now that Stefano knows about what Nicole did and the baby switch, why would Stefano tell everyone what she did? My thought is that he will hold this over her head and tell her that he will not tell EJ about it if she continues to be the perfect Dimera wife. Afterall, now he has the Dimera heir living right under his roof, instead of with Sami, who is a Brady. Sydney may be the only heir since there is still a question about whether or not Johnny is really EJ’s ( remember the DNA tests were jumbled up). The glitch, I think,will come when Grace is ill and Nicole feels guilty because she knows that Sami will not be able to save her. I understand that she tries to help Sami with Grace and betrays EJ and the family.
I have also wondered if Mia isn’t Rafe’s daughter from a teenage pregnancy that he either knew nothing about or the child was given up for adoption. Maybe this is part of his unknown past that Sami will soon investigate. He and Mia have not been in any scenes together or even in the same place together so far. That makes me think that there may be a connection between them. This would make Grace his granddaughter and maybe he will have a part in saving her somehow. Any ideas?
Freda– i agree with you about Sami and Rafe. They are great together. I,too, have been watching the show for a long time and to me, they are one of the only couples who seem to be believable and have an opportunity to become stable and stay together. Lucas and Chloe– no way. Phil and Stephanie — ugh; Bo and Hope are good together, but we are not seeing enough of them– hopefully, that will change this summer; Brady and Arianna??? Not sure on that one yet. I think that EJ and Nicole are great together. She is the perfect little wife for him–obedient and willing to help him in his little schemes.
Comment by Gail — May 26, 2009 #
LMAO. The Danloe chemistry is “too” strong for daytime tv?? That means they shouldn’t be together??
I want to see sizzling hot pairings and Daniel and Chloe certainly fit the bill.
According to DaysCafe, expect a hot summer..I’m hoping that Daniel and Chloe reinstate their love affair. Otherwise, this summer is going to fizzle like last summer.
Comment by LJ — May 26, 2009 #
I really hope to see Daniel and Chloe together more. They are HOT HOT!! Also, I don’t think Rafe is related to Mia, but I’m not sure what there connection is. I really want this baby switch story line to be over. I hope Sami comes unglued with Nicole when she finds out. There is no chemistry between EJ and Nicole at all. They suck together. Even though EJ is turning into a evil turd, I really like him. He needs a woman that stimulates him, and that is NOT Nicole. Poor Lucas needs someone new too.
The spoliers say Stephanie will get hooked on pills after her abduction. Maybe that will make her character more interesting. I love Melanie, she’s so funny. I hope Dr. Baker comes back soon, he’s funny too.
Comment by Jill — May 26, 2009 #
idea man– I have thought for a long time that Rafe may be Mia’s dad and Grace’s grandfather. Mia may be the product of a teenage pregnancy and the baby, Mia, was taken away and adopted, or the mother took off with her. Rafe may have found about her from his stint in the FBI. The nuns, I am sure know all, and if Sami is smart, that is where she will go to find out about his past.
Comment by Gail — May 26, 2009 #
I always thought that Rafe could be Mia’s Dad and have said it many times. From what the nun hinted at and his sister it seems that he was most likely hurt by her Mom and maybe like Chad he never new about the pregnancy. There has to be a reason that she never mentions her last name. Did I read earlier about Mia and Melanie being connected someway or other. I know they are going to both live with Maggie. How big is her house anyway since her grandson is going to live there also. It sounds like Micky might finally be seen.
Anne
Comment by anne — May 27, 2009 #
I DO NOT like the idea of Rafe being Grace’s grandfather. Rafe is smokin’ hot and him being a grandpa would make him not as sexy. and if Rafe’s past ruins things with him and Sami I’m gonna be ticked! They are perfect! haha. I watched a video of Bryan Datillo (Lucas) and he’s hilarious! he may not be very exciting on the set but in real life he cracks everyone up! I was laughing my ass off when I watched the video Ask The Hunk. haha. You guys should check it out! Its on NBC.com. Go to days of our lives, then videos, then ask the hunk. Its totally worth it :]
Ashley- I totally agree with you about Owen! He’s such a creeper! Locking Stephaine up in that morgue. If I was Stephanie I would kick his nutsack and get the hell outta there. Poor Lucas, every woman he’s had has like, cheated on him! he deserves someone who wil stay with him forever and who really loves him! Okkk I love Melanie. She’s so funny. haha the faces she makes crack me up! She reminds me alot of myself! And as for Will, uhhhh he can go back from wherever the hell he came from. He came back as a jerk! I hate him now. He’s always asking Sami questions, “why are you going there?” “Is there something going on?” Like seriously, your mother doesnt have to tell you EVERY little thing! And get some flippin acting lessons! haha. oh and Gail- Sami did try to ask Sister Agnes about Rafe’s past but Rafe walked into the room before she could even asnswer Sami. I really hope his past isn’t solmething bad… :/ he’s so sexy. haha
Comment by Chloe — May 27, 2009 #
Owen is such a weiner! He was like crying today!
Comment by Chloe — May 27, 2009 #
The spoilers say that Sami loses Grace forever. Does anyone have any idea what’s really going to happen to her? Maybe the truth comes out about who she really is and Mia takes her back or the baby’s father finds out and takes her? I would really hate to see that the writers have her die. It’s hard enough reading the news these days about babies dying or their parents hurting them, etc. but to see it on tv (even tho it’s acting) would be just as heartbreaking.
Comment by Deb — May 27, 2009 #
Chloe— i remember that now. I think the nuns know all and can fill Sami in. I doubt there will be any big investigation over this. I hope that what she finds out is minimal– not a deal breaker for them. You are so right– he is smokin hot and soooo sexy. God, who wouldn’t want him????
Comment by Gail — May 27, 2009 #
Deb- ALl I have heard says that Grace dies and there is a funeral for her. I would like things to turn out as you have them, but from what I have read, they don’t. Personally, I am very upset over the way the writers chose to handle this issue. I certainly think that they could have come up with a better solution to the story than having a baby die. I can imagine how hard it must be on the actors to play this role. OK– I know it is a job and only acting, but Ali and Galen both have young babies at home, so it must not have been a pleasant scene to shoot. I remember Kristen Alfonso saying in an interview how difficult it was to play the role when they had Zak die on the show. I think any actor who has kids of their own would not want to do this.
Comment by Gail — May 27, 2009 #
Not that I want any baby to ever die or watch it for that matter but this is daytime fictional TV. I think they are setting this up so that in the end, Sami eventually finds out Sydney is hers and Nicole is left with nothing.
Comment by Alison — May 27, 2009 #
My daughter was born a few days after Ali had hers in real life so I will most likely be sobbing like a baby just as I did when Nicole lost hers because I went thru the same thing. Hey, they are living my life. LOL But yes, I also heard about a funeral and the last air date for the girls who play Grace will be June 8th, I believe so it will happen in the next 2 weeks. :-\
Comment by Deb — May 27, 2009 #
Yeah baby Grace’s last air date is Monday June 8th
Comment by Chloe — May 27, 2009 #
I thought i had seen that Mia’s parents are going to be Nichole’s and Trent’s. When Nichole first found out she was pregenant she made comments like she may have given a baby away before. Since Mia is going to live with Maggie it would make sense for Melanie to end up being her sister. After what Trent did with Max we can believe he had another child he did not raise.
Comment by Donna — May 27, 2009 #
if baby grace dies and sami finds out that sydney is hers, that doesn’t mean that nicole will be left with nothing. she will still be married to ej and will be sydney’s step mother. cause stefano is going to convince ej that nicole did the right thing and then some how they are going to say that the babies were switched by accident. so nicole probably won’t even get into any trouble. it seems like the only people who have so far are people who need exits from the show.
Comment by April — May 27, 2009 #
I wonder what the loss of Grace will do to Rafe?? He’s so attached to her. I hope he doesn’t become some creeper or anything. I’m gonna cry when baby Grace dies
This kinda sucks.
But hopefully the truth comes out quick.
Comment by Chloe — May 28, 2009 #
it seems strange that it is Grace that dies when it is Sydney that had the breathing problem when she was born. At first I thought maybe something medically happened to her so Nicole needed to let Sami know about it. Grace gets more air time it seems then Sydney. It seems strange to have Mia’s baby die since that is her storyline that brought her to the show. I don’t know why Grace’s death would make Nicole want to tell Sami the truth. Maybe it is something that Stefano says to her.
Anne
Comment by anne — May 28, 2009 #
How sad that baby Grace dies…that’s going to be hard to watch.
I’ve always thought that Mia was a product of Nicole/Trent. So Nicole gave up a baby once? I must have missed when she said that.
I really hope that Stefano does not protect Nicole with the baby switch s/l. Ugggg!
Comment by Jill — May 28, 2009 #
I heard in a spoiler that Baby Grace has bacterial meningitis. She has a fever and seizes and Sami rushes her to the hospital. Dr. Dan is going to do genetic testing since she is “adopted” and Sami doesn’t “supposedly know much about her background”, but when they find out it is meningitis, he says it isn’t necessary to do the testing since meningitis has nothing to do with genetics. I also read that Stephano knows all and confronts Nicole with the info, but that he decides not to tell EJ what he knows– at least not for now. I think IF Nicole decides to “help” Sami, it will be for selfish reasons to protect herself and her situation, not b/c she feels guilty. That would fit with Nicole’s persona.
I am hoping that this whole situaiton will bring Rafe and Sami closer together– not pull them apart.
Also, Sami is supposed to start looking into Rafe’s past. I wonder if that will be before or after Grace dies.
Comment by Gail — May 28, 2009 #
How is it that the character of Nathan Horton(Maggie’s grandson) is listed as Melissa and Pete’s son? Melissa and Pete never had a child together, Pete had a son with Ivy(named Charles) not Melissa.By the time Melissa and Sarah left Salem , Melissa and Pete had been over for quite awhile. I am not opposed to new characters coming on board, but good grief can these writers at least try to follow the show’s history a little bit? Nathan could have been cast as the child of Melissa or Sarah by a husband that the viewers didn’t know(one who could actually be the father)I also think that Melanie should be paired with Phillip, not Nathan. The two of them together are interesting, funny and have great chemistry together.I can’t stand Stephanie/Phillip as a couple, let Owen(who is kinda nice to look at) have her, after he starts taking his medication.
Comment by Lynn — May 29, 2009 #
I am sad to hear they are going to have baby Grace die. I think it should have been Sydney! I love baby Grace and love how Sami and Rafe take care of her. I think the writers got it wrong! I would love to see Nicole get what is coming to her and how better that to have her child be the one!
Comment by Luann — May 29, 2009 #
Bring back Marlena and John, Patch and Kayla, Mickey! We need them back to make the show!
Comment by Luann — May 29, 2009 #
I read yesterday that TPTB at DAYS are taking the character of Sami in a new direction. She will become a “new version of Marlena”, not a replacement– that’s not possible, but a more Marlena-like character. THey are hoping to put her vindictivness and scheming in the past and make her a kinder, more patient young family woman. Apparently, it was always felt that the character of Belle would fill this role, but since that character is gone, they decided to take Sami in that direction. It also said that Sami was not supposed to have anymore kids on the show after the twins. The pregnancy with EJ was a late write-in–perhaps due to Ali’s own pregnancy. That is one reason why they have decided to have Baby Grace die– there will be too many babies/under fivers on the show and they don’t want that.
So,if this is all true, it sure explains a lot about Sami’s character and pairing her with Rafe.
Comment by Gail — May 29, 2009 #
What is the Buzz spolier about today? Sami tells EJ his daughter is gone? What???
Comment by Jill — May 29, 2009 #
So the spoilers say that Sami finally tells EJ:
‘Sami tells a flabbergasted EJ that his daughter is gone; Stephano decides to console EJ that it ain’t necessarily true!’
What do you ladies think will come out this? I’m hoping EJ will come to his senses and realize he must tell Sami. However, also heard that Will is the one who first suspects Sydney is not EJ and Nicole’s due to her eye color and that it couldn’t be genectically possible. Hmmmm…there may be hope still for Ejami.
Comment by Alison — May 29, 2009 #
Just read some spoiler about Grace dying, AND Stefano knows Nicole’s secret??? This is how they’re gonna fix the baby swap??? I can’t believe they’re gonna kill off Grace!!!! Horrible
Comment by Sue — May 29, 2009 #
You guys/gals are talking about this page, which is the buzz page, not the pure spoiler page so there is hope yet!
http://www.dayscafe.com/buzz.html
Also the wording could be interpreted different ways. “Stefano decides” to tell EJ the truth. Stefano could be stopped from telling EJ if he gets interrupted by another health crisis. Gee I just hope Nicole doesn’t poison the phoenix before he can tell him!
Comment by ANNA — May 29, 2009 #
I suppose there is hope…. but I haven’t noticed the buzz page to be wrong yet… I am not sure I can watch the day that Grace dies…. poor Mia… is she ever gonna know the truth? Grrr the show just gets me all annoyed, maybe I’ll be done watching. I only started watching it the day Sami went into witness protection, then got sucked in for the baby swap thing and was waiting to see how it played out. If I knew it would end like this I would have just turned the channel
Comment by Sue — May 29, 2009 #
Anna– I am agreeing with you on the wording– Stefano deciding to tell and actually telling EJ are two different things. I had heard before that Stefano knows but decides not to tell EJ. I can more imagine this scenario b/c Stefano has everything to gain and nothing to lose by withholding the info unless he gets a shot of conscience when Grace dies and that is highly doubtful to me. I had also heard the one about Sami telling EJ the truth, but then I also read that she decides to do that, but keeps getting interrupted by people coming to the hospital. Sometimes these spoilers are made to be confusing, I think, to throw us off the track a little. I do think that this baby switch deal is not over yet. My prediction is that EJ will not yet find out that Sami thought Grace was his child. If he finds out now, what happens to Nicole and her s/l? I don’t think EJ would forgive her for this.
Comment by Gail — May 30, 2009 #
OK– so now Rafe has this job as a construction worker on the pier. When he got the phone call about the job, he was on the phone with Sami and clicked over to the other call. When he answered he said, “Hernandez”– the same way he answered the phone when he was in the FBI. I personally don’t think Rafe has a job as a construction worker, but is either with the ISA, FBI, etc. to spy on the Dimeras. He has to have more of a storyline than a construction worker on the show. What do you all think?
Comment by Gail — May 30, 2009 #
So who thinks with Victors pissing so many people off that someone even his family will be suspects when an attempt on his life is made weather he dies or not will remain to be seen!
Comment by Lynn — May 31, 2009 #
Holy crap! Just read that in tomorrow’s show, EJ says he doesn’t care if Stephanie lives or dies!He is bad now!
Comment by ANNA — June 1, 2009 #
Um, I don’t think any of us care whether she lives or dies…that was harsh, wasn’t it?
Comment by S. E. — June 1, 2009 #
Heard that, too. He just wants to get Owen to shut up and not tell that he, EJ, was the one to tell him to kidnap Stephanie. He is going to the dark, dark side quickly.
S.E.– I know how you feel. One more day of screaming and whining in that body drawer!! And then philip asking her is that you Stephanie? Well, geez, who did you think it was? They don’t put live people in those things!!
Comment by Gail — June 2, 2009 #
Hahah yeah I don’t really care for Stephanie either. But what the hell was Kate wearing?! It was like a suit! she looked like a guy! haha I started cracking up when I saw what she was wearing.
Comment by Chloe — June 2, 2009 #
Chloe– i agree– the suit was awful. It looked like it was too big for her and tie, well, it was disgusting. I don ‘t know what they were thinking putting her in something like that!!
Comment by Gail — June 2, 2009 #
Yeah, Kate had some killer shoulder pads in that suit! She is just annoying all around.
Comment by Nik — June 2, 2009 #
Can’t we find her a guy to occupy her time? Or has she already been with all the men in Salem? Then maybe she’ll leave her kids alone.
Comment by Gail — June 2, 2009 #
I agree with you ladies on this one…I think Kate is very annoying. Everything about her is and her storylines are awful. They are the same crap. She brings no excitement or intrigue to the show. Booo-ring. In my opinion, she should have left the show to be with Billie, not Chelsea. Although, Corday wasn’t the one who axed Rachel, rather it was her own decision. But still, send them both off together.
Comment by Alison — June 2, 2009 #
The function of Kate is to present CONFLICT these days, for Chloe, Dan, and Lucas. I found it interesting that Victor also recently voiced his displeasure with Daniel. Kate is the flakier female counterpart of Victor and she will for sure humiliate Chloe and Dan, especially Dan profesisonally, since Chloe was his patient, but I don’t think she will suceed in killing Chloe. As for her outfits, she is not supposed to be likable right now anyway. Though I do think it looks a bit like she has had a chemical peel.
Comment by happyme — June 2, 2009 #
Yeah and lip job and a face lift. Kate is really annoying. This might sound weird but I think her hair is really annoying too. Her flippin her ugly bangs everywhere. haha and she needs to butt outta Lucas’s life a little. She thinks she can run it. It’s stuuuuupiddddd.
Comment by Chloe — June 3, 2009 #
I had a sneaky suspision (confirmed by the spoilers) that once EJ found out Grace was his “daughter” he would keep Syndey a secret from Sami because she kept the secret they had a daughter together. Now the question remains what will he do with Nicole and when will he tell Sami the truth?
Comment by Deb — June 3, 2009 #
I hate that they are killing off Grace! The death of a child is terrible. It was horrible when Zach died, and now, the are doing the same thing with a baby. The spoiler says EJ will find out Sydney is Sami’s but won’t tell her. DAMN HIM!! I just hope the writer’s don’t make Sami forget her grief for Grace when she finds out the truth. Grace was her child since birth and she loved her as HER child.
Comment by Misty — June 3, 2009 #
What a bunch of crap — I’m so annoyed….seriously, EJ will be more annoyed with Sami then his decitful WIFE? Where is the justice here. They both did wrong and for Nicole to just get a free pass is crap. So, this means he and Nicole will be together and Sami and Rafe will remain a couple. Boo. Boo. Boo. How irritating. All this time, thinking finally, some redemption but nope….Nicole gets away with her nonsense and Sami feels the brunt of it all with no Ejami promise in the future. Oh well…my disappointment will eventually fade, I guess.
And I’m sure Sami would not be protrayed as forgetting her grief for the loss of Grace — but eventually when she finds out Sydeny is hers, we may see the old Sami for awhile when she seeks revenge on Nicole. Hey, that may be my redemption! She’ll think Ej knew all along and that will most likely seal the end of that relationship ever sparking again but at least Nicole will pay.
Comment by Alison — June 3, 2009 #
Can’t wait to see the look on Nicole’s face tomorrow when Stefano tells her he knows!
http://www.dayscafe.com/update.html
Comment by happyme — June 3, 2009 #
I just read the link to tomorrow’s episode. First of all, Nicole is such a manipulating b1tch…she knows that Mia is that baby’s mother and knows there is something seriously wrong, and that she may die yet she tells Mia to go away and leave the situation alone. Wow. Beyond words on that one.
Then there’s Sami and when I read she telling Rafe THEIR child was sick…um, nooooo. It’s not his child, not by a long shot. In that situation, she should be turning to Ej and telling him the truth asap, not running to her boring body guard/boy friend, Rafe. God, these shows are so unrealistic it’s sickening me. I get the fantasy of it….hell, I’m taking time out of my day to rant about a fictional show but give me a little reality from time to time especially when dealing with such serious issues.
Comment by Alison — June 3, 2009 #
Apparently Rafe is gonna let EJ beat him up after he finds out Grace was his (so he thinks anyhow) and boy will he be mad!
Comment by ANNA — June 3, 2009 #
This show send out too many wroung massages.It says do every thing bad and good things will come to you.I can,t stand EJ or Nicole .Iuseto love EJbut can,t stand to watch him now.Again James is getting what he wanted .He,s getting to stay with Arianne.
Comment by patsy — June 3, 2009 #
If EJ is not upset with Nicole at all for being deceitful, manipulative and cruel and is upset with Sami for not telling him about his child, then maybe he and Nicole belong together. That is just wrong. Nicole cannot keep getting off scott free and get to keep a baby that is not hers. Not that I want to see he and Nicole together, but I also don’t want to see this EJ with Sami.
Comment by Jill — June 3, 2009 #
Hello to all the Safe and Ejole people out there! I love the acting that James and Ari do together, but I think that Ari’s strongest scenes are when she is with Brady. That miscarriage scene(s) were the height of tragedy and extremely well done. You could believe that it was real. I love Victor the One-liner Man. He makes me laugh so hard some times. He is the definition of the old curmudgeon! I also really like Doc Baker – not for the one-liners, but for the humor and wicked little gleam in his eye! John must have fun playing that role! I love how he makes Nicole SQUIRM! On another note, I see that most of you aren’t in favor of Philip and Stephanie. While I agree that she whines too much (WAY too much!) she does serve as a moral compass for Philip, who, let’s face it, is at a disadvantage there because of who his parents are! I also think that they are letting a great character go to waste in Philip. He is passionate, stubborn, and definitely has fire in his belly; something Rafe seems to lack. Philip is also a Marine, Special Ops and ISA agent in the past. No wimp there! He also seems to have a “bionic” leg – note the drawer kicking scene in the morgue – and the ability to heal much faster than anyone else. EJ today is still wearing his bruises from the dock fight with Philip, but Philip is totally healed, no bruising, no bullet wound, and certainly no overhang from poisoning…And he has a new face courtesy of the military = Can anyone say experimental military physical adjustment? I also think that the writers could use the whole kidnapping thing to have Steph undergo PTSD (a real excuse to whine) and have Philip help her through it since he has obviously had some experience with this himself. Owen has a brother that the father said turned out “better.” Does anyone other than me think that maybe Owen ISN’T the MIT computer guy at Titan and maybe Owen’s brother IS? That both brothers were suborned by Stefano and the father will have reason to mourn two sons, not just one? Just a thought. It would be a nice twisty plot device. I think that both EJ and Stefano will applaud Nicole for bringing Sydney home to them. I think they WILL hide this from Sami for as long as they can. The question is, can EJ hide his true feelings for Sami that long? I remain doubtful. Perhaps Nicole will be a good dutiful wife for him – as long as it suits her – but EJ will always pine for Sami in his heart.
Comment by Pat — June 4, 2009 #
ITA with you guys about EJ. He has gone to the dark side and going farther and farther that way. I have also heard that EJ tries to get custody of Johnny– further punishing Sami, but that Nicole may interfere and let TPTB know that EJ was the one to have Stephanie kidnapped.
EJ should be more than upset with Nicole– afterall, she not only deceived him about Sydney, but also never told him about the child they had together that died. Maybe she thinks that she is somehow lessening her guilt here??? Don’t think so.
I have also read that Sami pushes Rafe away b/c she wants someone to be angry with her. She feels that she doesn’t deserve someone like Rafe who will be understanding,etc. I think that she will go back to Rafe after a few weeks when things calm down, tho–b/c EJ will find out from Stefano that Sydney is his and Sami’s and that will be a way to punish Sami– but for how long?? Is this going to drag on all summer? What about Mia here? She is the real loser in all this. I feel bad for Will, too– and I read that he really unloads on his mom for the secrets and lies.
What part does Rafe play here? He and Sami are so good together– she more belongs with him than with EJ who is becoming more evil by the day.

Ithink I have out Rafes past .I think he was a Prist or what ever they are callat the convent.He tryed to help a young woman and got too closeto her and got in trouble and they kicked him out of the church.THEman is too gentle to have done something real bad. I just love the charterRafe. I l0ve Ejam but I loooove SAFE
Comment by patsy — June 4, 2009 #
Rafe is the best. He and Sami make the show worth watching. I doubt he did anything too awful either. All the spoilers say is that we will see a different side of Rafe or see him in a different light.
Comment by Gail — June 5, 2009 #
Next weeks spoliers say that Stefano keeps his silence about the baby switch, but is unaware of something that could change everthing.
Does anyone have an idea of what this could be? Could it be that Sami finds out Sydney is hers? Any thoughts?
Comment by Jill — June 5, 2009 #
My take is that when Sami tells EJ that Grace was his, he will be so devastated over it that Stefano will eventually console him by letting him know Grace was not his, but he will also have to tell him that Sydney is his and Sami’s!
Comment by happyme — June 5, 2009 #
i think sami will become suicidal and try to kill herself. stepheno will tell her and ej the truth….maybe? to help sami deal with the loss of gracie…sami will then trust stepheno over her family. what do u think????
Comment by froggefairy — June 5, 2009 #
stepheno could explain he found out when he investagated tony’s death. tony left a crytic message for him to decipher…. he will blame dr. baker. letting nicole off the hook. she will need to tell ej about the miss-carrage though… he will then be torn between nicole and sami…..lol i hope..
Comment by froggefairy — June 5, 2009 #
I DON’T LIKE SAMI WITH RAFE….. NO HEAT OR HEART…SAMI WITH DR. DAN WOULD BE INTERESTING, BECAUSE IT WOULD DRIVE CHLOE CRAZY. {SMILE}
next week {week of the 8th} they barely mention sami, so i worry that DENA is planning something horrible for us sami -ej fans.! i hope ej over hears nicoles plea for punishment by god…she needs to get caught.
Comment by froggefairy — June 5, 2009 #
I thought this baby Grace story was suppose to be Allyson/Sami s time to shine .WHY was ARIANNE/ Nicole face in nearly every scenes? Sometimes Iwished I could reach threw the tv screen and yank her ballheaded.I,m sorry but the character/actress realy grates on my nerves.I can,t stand EJ either,They both think they are so great.
Comment by patsy — June 6, 2009 #
PS I see it,s still the Nicole/E.J. showenstead of Day Of OUR LIVES. where is BO&HOPE ?yOU KNOW THERES MORE PEOPLE ON YHE SHOW THAN E.J.&NICOLE Ialso like MELENE. i LIKE HER WITH PHILLIP.

I heard that sometime in July, EJ becomes the next victim in the Kiriakis/DiMera fued and has to be hospitalized.

Just a thought!!Wouldn,t be nice if Lucus had a chance to tell E,J. of all the times Sami try to tell him about the baby but he was so wraped up in Nicole he couldn,t see it .Nah the writers are too dumb to do anything like that.They reather write about Nicole getting away with liveing Samis life.
Comment by patsy — June 6, 2009 #
patsy—- you are so right, i would love lucas to be the one who informs ej about the many times sami has tried to tell him…i also look foreward to ej and rafe going toe to toe,. did you read that saint tramp chloe gets mad at lucas for keeping sami’s secret… where does she get off. i want sami too find comfort in dr. dan’s arms just to upset chloe.{{{{{{{{{{{{smile}}}}}}}}}}}}}} boy if DENA gets it right this summer is going to be worth this past winter. rafe is a tool , who is asking sami to lie. what a tool.
if brady comforts sami about the death of grace,nicole will know real fear…he will never forgive nicole for stealing the baby… i think MELANIE is a fun character for lucas. he needs someone to match his mommy kate. melanie might best kate, ohhhhhhhhhh.! this would be great. hope will help sami cope with the loss of baby, maybe because of ZACH. caroline needs to go on blind dates to meet someone. which would drive her kids crazy…lol…drop kick vic’s butt to the curb.
Comment by froggefairy — June 7, 2009 #
Sorry, froggefairy– I don’t understand what you mean by Rafe being a tool who is asking Sami to lie. When did Rafe ask Sami to lie? It was Sami’s decison and choice not to tell Ej about the baby– long before she even met Rafe. That is one of the reasons she went into WP– to hide her pregnancy. Rafe didn’t even know she was pregnant for quite some time. Even in the hospital on Friday when Sami told him that she almost told EJ the truth, he said I know you did and if it would help Grace, but she said Dr. Dan said it would not.
But I agree— he is some tool!!
Comment by Gail — June 8, 2009 #
Sami has been such a LIAR LIAR but oh well what goes around comes around! Rafe would be a good character if he was revealed to be still FBI. And soon. He is starting to seem like a bit of a hanger on bum otherwise. It is interesting that he lets EJ beat him up though haha!
Comment by ANNA — June 8, 2009 #
rafe got all bent out of shape,when sami first came home and was tempted to tell the truth…then the giant tool desides he wants to adopt grace ,but not marry sami..something is fishy…I thought about rafe last night, what if he is out for revenge against ROMAN. he could be a family member of someone who ROMAN had to kill ,to exscape the mexican jail where STEFENO stuck him 13 years ago..! that would exsplain rafe growing up with the nuns…RAFEis out to ruin ROMAN’s family….what do u think…wink..wink..
Comment by froggefairy — June 8, 2009 #
I like the idea of Lucas with Melanie, although I don’t think it will happen. There is a big age difference and I think she’s meant to be with Phillip. She would be a good one for Kate to spar with. I liked it when Sami and Kate used to get into it. Sami also brought out a little more spunk in Lucas.
I’m so over the baby switch s/l. Move on already…EJ needs to pull his head out and see Nicole for the evil witch she is.
Roman needs more air time and a woman. And what’s with Nicole having all these friends and Sami having none. Brandy and even Lexie like her. Nicole and Chloe friends???? She triend to permanently disfigure the girl. And Chloe doesn’t like Sami, give me a break.

Rafe is the most popular hunk in Salem right now. EJ is seen as more and more of a villain. Check it out …

Comment by happyme — June 8, 2009 #
Yeah, with EJ’s temper and scruffy looks these days, I’m kind of afraid he’s gonna give somebody rabies.
Comment by S. E. — June 8, 2009 #
Thanks for that happyme. And a hunk he is, too.
I have a feeling that the baby switch s/l is not going to be over soon. Who knows, maybe they will wait until the next sweeps– I hope not, but I haven’t seen anything yet that says Dr. Baker is coming back to town and he certainly must be part of that s/l.
I am sure there is something more to Rafe, but I don’t think it is bad– they already have too many villain type guys on the show. They need a couple of good guys to replace John, Steve, and Max. I think that’s why they brought in actors like Galen and Eric.
Comment by Gail — June 8, 2009 #
I read somewhere that the baby switch story line isnt going to wrap up until the end of summer :O(
I think that Dr Baker is gonna be the guy to take the blame for it though. Maybe he’ll say there was a mix up at the hospital and his nurses ACCIDENTLY switched the babies. That would get Nicole off the hook for baby stealing and allow her to remain in Sydney’s life after all is revealed. It seems like EJ will probably stay with her after all is said and done. Its a shame that she will get away with all the scheming.
Comment by Beverly — June 8, 2009 #
If the baby story is going to be going on all summer I think I,ll quit watching right now.

i really dont know what the big deal is about rafe. i know there is somethin shady with him because he cant just be the whole package without there being someting wrong with him. im not saying that i dont like him he just seems to good to be true. i also think that once grace dies sami is going to either go into a deep depression or she is going to go BONKERS, but she is doing a AWESOME job this week, i hope that she wins an emmy
Comment by kelsey — June 9, 2009 #
I like the rafe & sami relationship, I hope they keep him clean, Sami needs someone in her live to give her direction and I think he is the one to do it, EJ is skum, and I think srafe should get sami’s baby back from nicole, that isn’t right.
Comment by Toni — June 9, 2009 #
I have yet to watch yesterdays episode but I read the spoilers and got choked up. I know it’s fiction and none of it is true but it’s still sad to see a baby die on tv. I was tearing up on Friday. Ali is doing a great job as I’m sure with just having a baby herself was truly emotional doing the scenes. I really hate that the writers had baby Grace die.

Why would E.J. try to get full cousty of Johnny ?HE stays upstairs alltine by himself while E.J.and Nicole spend all their time with Syndy.He is so bad why would any one want him back with Sami.
Comment by patsy — June 9, 2009 #
He’s just doing it to piss Sami off, which is totally NOT cool considering she just lost Grace. If EJ really loved Sami he wouldn’t put her through that. Personally I think EJ deserves to be by himself.

Looks like Stefano thinks Nicoles baby switch was a good thing. He seems impressed with her.

Because Sami tells EJ that he was the “father” of Grace and he gets into a rage. He tried to gain full custody of Johnny.
Comment by Jewel — June 9, 2009 #
This is crazy. I am so tired of the show introducing kids into the show and then not showing them. Ali and Johnny have been missing foreverand it is a little unbelieveable that Lucas would not be by Sami’s side through all this.and there would not be more bonding between Lucas, Will, Sami and the kids.
Comment by shawubble — June 9, 2009 #
Wow just watched todays show, that was SOOO SAD! Ali did awesome I had tears running down my face, my kids kept asking why was I crying. I luv SAFE!
Comment by jess — June 10, 2009 #
I’ve been watching Days for years and it’s always interesting to watch characters evolve.
Watching Mia and Will together reminded me so much of Sami when she was a teenager. Not sure why..but just did. Those kids are growing on me for sure.
I’m back and forth with Nicole. On one hand I love that she has become very Dimera-esque, but I also miss the ever tipsy wise cracking diva. She just isn’t fun any more. Maybe bringing back Doc Baker will fire her comedic side back up. And what happened to Pookie???!!!
Chloe and Lucus..I just don’t get the two of them. Never have and never will. They just never made sense. Doctor Dan on the other hand, used to be sexy and even some of his scenes with Lexie were absolutely electric! Now he just has creepy fantasies and totally reminds me of a sexual predator. Major ick factor.
Stephanie. Any scene without her is a better scene by default. Whiny, self centered, and since when did she turn into such a nympho? My goodness! The girl thinks that all life’s problems are solved in the bedroom.
And Phil..seems he’s forgotten about his artificial leg..his beloved Belle and the child he obsessed over..Claire. And may I point out that when Belle was married to Phil they didnt live in the mansion and it wasn’t all greek mafia.
About Grace..hurt to watch, but I’m glad the writers took the chance. Everyone wants the show to somewhat mirror life, and like it or not in real life babies die from bacterial meningitis. Very sad but good they tackled it and didn’t take the chicken way out.
Sami was perfection and I love Rafe!
Thats all for now..have to go to work. Thanks for letting me rant!
Comment by JJ — June 10, 2009 #
Yup, cried like a big baby watching the last 2 shows. Ali/Sami did an outstanding job and I doubt she didn’t have to do much acting. You could tell she was truly upset and emotional. And as much as I hate to say it, I know Nicole was very sincere with her feelings towards Grace and her scenes with Mia also made me cry. She did good. I think Mia could have used more tears as it almost seemed forced with her. But otherwise, it was just so sad seeing Grace go. The twins who played her character are just absolutely beautiful.
Comment by Deb — June 10, 2009 #
I hope EJ is as nasty to Nicole when he finds out what she did.
I do like Rafe, just not with Sami.
Comment by Jill — June 10, 2009 #
hhhmmm. I think that maybe when EJ finds out the truth about Sydney, he may turn his wrath on Nicole too. Remember he told Sami that Nicole has not betrayed him. Well she did. She lost their baby and didn’t tell him (so he never grieved), then switched babies and now that he knows (thinks) Grace is his, he is in a rage and gets really upset with Sami. But now maybe Stefano has to tell him the truth so he does’t agonize and grieve anymore over never knowing his daughter. He might feel relieved once he’s told the real truth but then will lash out at Nicole for lying to him about Sydney not being “theirs”. And he will be mad because they let him still think Grace was his once he found out and.
Comment by Deb — June 10, 2009 #
I love Days. The past couple of days have been so sad, and Ali did such a good job today. The scene with Sami and EJ was horrible, and from what I have read there is worse to come for Sami. I cannot stand Nicole. She was so proud of herself when Stephano told her that he admired her cunning ways. I really am ready for Sami to know that Sydney is her baby and see what happens with Nicole and EJ. Does anyone have any ideas as to how the whole baby switch thing will come full circle. My daughter thinks that Sydney will get sick, and they will need Sami and only Sami in some way or form to help her. Just wondering if anyone else has any thoughts as to how this will play out?
Comment by Gabrielle — June 10, 2009 #
No EJ won,t be mad at Nicole ,HE,LL GET DOWN AND KISS HER FEET BECAUSE HE,S SO DUMB AND SELFRICHES/. i SURE HOPE SAMI STAYSWITCH A REAL MAN WHO DOESN,THAVE TO PLAY GAMES TO GET A WOMAN TO LOVE HIM.tHAT MAN ISRAFE THE BEST THING TO COME TO DAYS SENC BOi I USETO LOVE E,J. BUT CAN,T STAND HIM ANY MORE.o CAME ON,GIVE US A REAL LOVE STORY WITH SAMI AND RAFE.
Comment by patsy — June 10, 2009 #
I think Ali and James did a wonderful job today.Despite this, I am having a hard time feeling sorry for Sami. I feel bad for EJ. And for Mia most of all. I think EJ’s reaction to being told that Grace was his daughter was perfectly justified considering Sami only decided to tell him after Grace was dead. Say what you want about EJ, but he does love his children. I think he may have been more compassionate if Sami didn’t have a face on her that screamed”and I am not sorry about what I have done, not one bit” so why tell EJ then? to hurt him? I personally think that Sami was correct when she blamed herself for Grace’s death. When Grace first started to have fevers, Sami did not take her to the hospital, she was more worried about her love life. Stopping EJ’S Wedding and then groveling for Rafe to stay in Salem where at the top of Sami’s list of priorities.The second time that Sami knew that Grace had a fever, it was the same thing with Sami, Sami was more interested in making out with Rafe than she was in taking care of Grace. I know it is only a soap, but what mother REALLY does that?Even if she claimed that she thought that Grace was teething, you still take her to a doctor to MAKE SURE that this is all that it was, there is a REASON that Sami doesn’t have M.D. at the end of her name… and being the mother of three already, Sami should have already known to do this. so no I am not all broken up over Sami right now. I think that Sami deserves whatever payback EJ has for her and then some more.I hope that this will not all be pointless in the end.If the writers HAD to kill off Grace for the sake of ratings at least they could bust Nicole too, you know things to make the viewers sad and things to make the viewers HAPPY. I think that it should be a give and take relationship.lol I hope that in the end(soon like tomorrow soon) that Nicole is made to pay BIG TIME for all the crap that she pulled. I just hope that EJ and Sami being at each others throats will lead to an exciting new sl between the two of them. Ali and James really play so well off of each other, whether they are fighting or sweet to each other, I am never bored with the two of them together. And I must admit (imo)that even if they kill off a hundred more babies that this still would not help to make this baby switch sl any more interesting. It has dragged out WAY to long, can we move along NOW please?!
Comment by Lynn — June 10, 2009 #
Well the sweeps say that Nicole is guilty ridden and betrays EJ to help Sami, so somehow I think Nicole will play into this whole event coming out. I would love to see Dr. Baker come back and find out that Grace died and end up telling Mia. I do think it would be interesting to have EJ get suspicious and do a DNA test. He never did follow up on the note that Tony left for him.
I really want to see EJ and Nicole end. I do not like the two of them together – no sparks.

Beverly,
I think you nailed it! I read Dr. Baker is going to make a return, so it makes sense he’s going to say there was a mix-up. Maybe Nicole will be the one to put him up to it or Chad’s parents might get involved.
Comment by Lisa — June 11, 2009 #
Jill,
It would be great if EJ has a DNA test done for Grace to make sure Sami is telling the truth. He’ll find out that he wasn’t Grace’s father and who knows he may or may not reveal it to Samantha.
Comment by Lisa — June 11, 2009 #
If I remember, Sami did take Grace to the hospital to find out about her fevers and Lexie did the check up and said there was nothing wrong. I don’t think she cared about her love life more– She and Rafe stayed right there in the room with her while they just kissed on the couch and then stopped when she started crying. My kids all ran fevers when they teethed and I took them to the doctor and was told to give them Tylenol– so it’s a common thing. THe meningitis has nothing to do with those fevers and Dr. Dan told her that.
This whole baby dying/switch storyline is so sad. I am glad that Rafe has been there for Sami–especially since everyone else seems to be going to desert her– including Will. Rafe always seems to be her compass to bring her back to reality– she needs a guy like that now. As for his sister, I ‘d say drown her. She is being downright nasty. Saying to Rafe when she could see he was hurting “well she was adopted, right?”. How heartless was that!!!!
Comment by Gail — June 11, 2009 #
Maybe EJ will do a DNA test on Grace for both he and Sami and find that she was not either one of their children. That would be interesting. Sami would then be on a mission to find out what happened…
Comment by Jill — June 11, 2009 #
I still say I’m glad Rafe is there for Sami and they should always be together! Remember the nuns said he is a good man…I know Sami really needs someone like Rafe(you know they say opposite attracts) and can finally, finally let her past be the past. Let us viewers realize that good things can come out of bad things!!! With this baby situation, there is no telling what the writers have in mind with EJ and how he may try to punish Sami with their type of revenge. LOVE RAMI AND SAFE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I gotta wonder what it is Nichole does to betray EJ to help Sami. Any ideas? What if he finds out Grace was not his after all and accuses Sami of lying to him again? I must say EJ did a great job when Sami told him about Grace. I like him. Good or bad.
Comment by Deb — June 11, 2009 #
I think its disgusting to say Sami deserves the payback that EJ gives her. What kind of insenstive person can just take another child from her after her loss. Sure, Sami should have told EJ but with what Sami has been through in “real life” (I know its just a soap,lol) she would be looked at as irresponsible for bringing allowing her child to be a part of a family that is trying to kill people…however, EJ has shown what a truely hateful person he is an he isnt at all the nice guy he has claimed to be.REGARDLESS he wants to be just like Stefano, and although I am an EJAMI fan…there separation is only proving to be right for the both of them. EJ is going to regret (of course) what he says to sami and he will lose both of his children….as he rightly should….should sami give him the benefit of the doubt? Hmm, we shallsee! Cant wait till the s/l is resolved.

I don,t feel sorry for E.J. at all .he deserves every thing his gettin g from both Sami &Nicole. .Sami beged EJto stay away from Nicolebut he wouldn,t , he wanted to make Sami jeliousebut it only made her hate the both of them.I guess after today Rafe understands why Sami is afairedof EJ.the man has no control over his angar.I,ll be glad when E.J.and Nicole loses every thing. I love Rafe he is go gentle and careing.
Comment by patsy — June 12, 2009 #
I just caught up on my DVR and watched the lastest episodes of Sami telling Ej the truth. Wow. Wow. Wow. The acting on both parts were TREMENDOUS. I was very impressed. Sami’s acting was spot on and I feel it may have come easier to her as she may be relating her s/l to real life(god forbid). Ej’s acting was solid and powerful. Again, really impressed. Those 2 have the most impactful scenes together and I’m not just saying this b/c I want to see them together in the end. Anyhow, I do think that Ej was for sure jaded and regardless of how evil his father is, Sami had a right to tell him the truth. He has always been a good father to Johnny. In fact, Ej betrayed his family for Sami and the Brady’s just to prove he was on the good side, their side, and wanted to be a better person for Samantha so they could be together. I like Rafe but the chemistry is just not all there with them. I just don’t see it. Anyhow, I do hope that Nicole does come clean or is exposed so Ej realizes she also betrayed him. However, this will put him in such a dark, dark place that he’ll probably never recover from and truly be Stefano’s character/replacement. Unfortunately, I think that’s where the writers want to take him. Samantha will be like the Marlena to Stefano and Rafe will be the John Black to Sami. Boo. Why not change it up and give different characters different s/l’s? History repeating itself is not always good.
Comment by Alison — June 12, 2009 #
Just an observation. Sami never had any payback for making John a drug addict. She should have gotten some jail time for that one! Does Rafe know about it, I wonder? I mean, does he really know all the sordid details of those past wrongdoings? And how many times has Nicole gotten away with attempted murder? These women getting all the airtime are felons. I would have more smypathy for someone like Jennifer.
Comment by happyme — June 12, 2009 #
Well I think what’s going to happen is that Stefano and Nicole will be forced to tell EJ that Grace was not his biological daughter because he is clearly raging mad and upset over losing her. And so they will then have to tell him that Sydney is his and Sami’s. He then might be just as angry as Nicole for lying to him but then he will also not tell Sami the truth about Sydney.
Comment by Deb — June 12, 2009 #
I agree with Deb with how it will play out but then why would Ej stay with Nicole? How could he possibly justify staying married to a woman who lied about a miscarriage, placed a tummy pad under her clothes for the rest of the ‘pregnancy’, tried pawning off a black market baby as theirs and end up blatantly switching Sami’s baby at birth. I’m sure not all of that will be revealed or he’ll sacrifice just to paint a picture to the courts that he is in a stable marriage to gain full custody of Johnny and rob Sami of the truth re: Sydney. He’ll want an eye for an eye. But how long can he possibly keep it from her? I think he’ll eventually want to tell her after he feels she is punished enough but then I read that Will becomes suspicious b/c of Sydney’s eye color. I guess we’ll see what happens but I hope this doesn’t drag out forever. It’s already been too long.
Comment by Alison — June 12, 2009 #
After watching todays episode I was sobbing. Nicole is such a horrible person for letting people go through the things that she has put them through, and poor Mia has no inkling what a horrible person Nicole is and what she has done. After all of the pain and grief that EJ has gone through how could he not hat Nicole? I know I do. Please tell me this is going to end soon. You know Nicole is so money hungry that is all this is. If she really wanted someone who truly loved her unconditionally, she would not have treated Brady so callously. How could anyone like Nicole? I love it anytime Victor is around her because he knows her and calls it like he sees it.
Comment by Gabrielle — June 12, 2009 #
Rafe maybe boreing somethime but I love this gentel manwith the careing gentle eyes.I don,t care what he has done in his past it couldn,t be half as bad as what EJ has done.The only reason EJ is upset is because Sami wouldn,t give away her soul to be with EJ like Nicole has done .Sami is a woman I would look up to .WHAT SHE DOES IS FOR LOVE OF FAMILE .

Comment by waka — June 12, 2009 #
I don’t think that it is insensitive to have an opinion and in MY opinion Sami DOES deserve whatever payback EJ has in store for her. What Sami did was vindictive and completely selfish, a so no my heart is still not over run with sympathy for Sami’s character.(even if the acting HAS been great by Ali)Sami didn’t tell EJ about Grace until his “daughter” was DEAD, handed Grace over to a stranger, allowed the stranger who had a sick obsession with Grace to pressure her into not telling EJ when she wanted to (Sami has said herself 100 times that she knows EJ is a good dad)allowed a stranger to be Grace’s father,(some protective mother) told EJ in a nasty, hurtful way, and oh yeah after all this, Sami is still letting Rafe run around town calling himself Grace’s dad and still saying that crap right in EJ’S grieving face.( rubbing salt in a wound anybody?) so YEP,imo, Sami deserves whatever EJ throws at her right now. If Grace would of been their first child together, maybe I could see what Sami did as protective and not spiteful, but she isn’t and the bunch of excuses that Sami kept trying to give for keeping Grace away from EJ has always been weak, it has never made any sense.Sami was just as wrong to EJ as Nicole still is to Mia,Sami and Nicole both know that they are lying for their own selfish purposes and neither one cares if any one else is hurt by their actions as long as Sami and Nicole get what they want.I’m on EJ’s side in this, Sami was totally wrong. I also agree with Happyme, a character like Jennifer would have made this sl heartfelt for every one watching because it would have been true, undeserved pain for someone to treat Jennifer badly if her child died. I think that this is why Mia is the one I feel the most sympathy for, because she is the one who truly lost her daughter, doesn’t know, isn’t given the chance to grieve as a mother, only as a “friend” to Grace, has been betrayed and used by Nicole over and over again and Mia is just a scared kid who was trying to give her baby the life that she knew that she couldn’t as a teenager, which is what is REALLY, REALLY sad about this whole thing so what kind of insensitive person doesn’t see who REALLY deserves the sympathy in this sl?lol

Comment by patsy — June 12, 2009 #
Take heart Patsy because Nicole is the new Kristen and after a brief time, Kristen was exposed as passing off another woman’s baby as her own and she wound up with NOTHING! The writers will not keep Sami’s baby from her much longer. She is starting to grow and they will want to have the tear jerker mama baby reunion before she gets much bigger. As for the soap mags, they can be misleading. Better to stick with free websites.
Comment by ANNA — June 13, 2009 #
I guess Sami is ALREADY irresponsible since Johnny(remember him?)is already a part of the Dimera family.
Comment by Lynn — June 13, 2009 #
Sami didn’t really have a choice there seeing as how she was raped. Yeah, I guess she could’ve sued for sole custody, but my best bet is that she would’ve lost. She could’ve lied about Johnny’s paternity, but that also backfired because EJ had the tests done instead of her. I hate to say it, but Johnny was pretty much screwed from the start.
Comment by S. E. — June 13, 2009 #
I wonder if Dr. Carly will be connected to Rafe or Mia. She was an Allomain, right?
Comment by ANNA — June 13, 2009 #
I know that Dr. Carly Manning’s story in the past had nothing to do with Rafe. I don’t know if the writers will change this now. Yes, Carly was with Lawrence Alamain, they had a son together.(Nicky) Carly also married Bo in Mexico(wasn’t legal,so Bo and Carly planned to get remarried in Salem but it never ended up happening) Bo and Carly were together for several years(before Billie) before Carly left with Lawerence and Nicky to go back to Europe. Carly was Jennifer’s best friend from boarding school and at one point was even married to Victor. I hope that the return of Carly will lead to the return of Vivian,Jack, Jennifer, Ivan,Lawrence,Nicky, I would be happy to see Mr. Woo(maybe even John and Marlena, who had ties to the Alamain family will get to return with them at some point) Days back then was written so well and had so many interesting sl’s(Vivan buried Carly alive)I really, really hope that Vivian and Ivan are brought back.I am hoping the return of Carly will lead to seeing great entertainment, by a group of very talented skilled actors. I personally hope that there is no connection to Rafe whatsoever, I’d much rather see a sl that is independent of Nicole, Sami ,EJ and most assuredly Rafe. The whole show should not revolve around them, it will be much more interesting if it does not.I personally am sick of seeing them all on my screen everyday.just my opinion.
Comment by Lynn — June 13, 2009 #
Are we really sure that Johnny is EJ’s? I know the first test was botched by Nick, but then there were other tests run and Stefano said, Just as I thought, when the results came back, so who knows for sure on that one. Anyway,at the time, wasn’t Sami married to Lucas? If so, legally, both children would have been Lucas’s. And yes, Sami was raped by EJ to conceive those twins– would you want him to be the father of another child? I realize she had sex with EJ, but it was a one-night stand, a booty call IMO. She didn’t have consensual sex with him before that or after that. I don’t think what they did had anything to do with love on her part. She was upset because Lucas was in prison and said he was never coming home. Then, Stefano tried to kill the twins to get stem cells to save himself. What a lovely family they all are.
Comment by Gail — June 13, 2009 #
Gail, even though we disagree over whether Sami did in fact consent to sex with EJ on the night that Johnny was conceived, you are absolutely right that Lucas would have been ruled the legal father of both twins because Sami was HIS wife at the time they were born. For anyone who may not know this,if a child is born in wedlock, the presumption(rule of law) is the husband is the father of that child,even if the married couple is separated at the time of conception.( that does not matter to the Court) As long as the couple is still legally married, the husband will be determined the father of the child.The presumption is so strong that a natural father(EJ0 can be prevented from having rights to his biological child if the child was born in wedlock(to a married lover) or the husband acknowledges the child as his own and agrees to pay support for the child, or if the husband signs consent that he is the father of the child.The husband can also be prevented by the Court from establishing that he is NOT the father of his wife’s child. The presumption is so strong because the court does not want to bastardize a child.The natural father is not entitled to a D.N.A test unless the mother agrees to have one. Which all proves my point. Sami chose to allow EJ into her life and Johnny’s, if Sami did not want Johnny(or any of her children) to be a part of the Dimera family because she feared EJ and his father, then it would have been easy to accomplish this legally for both Johnny and Grace.(but then we all wouldn’t have been bored to death for the last year with the baby switch sl, now would we?How could anyone have wanted to miss out on THAT, silly me.lol)All Sami and Lucas had to do was talk to a lawyer and they wouldn’t have had to even go through very much at all to accomplish Johnny being kept from EJ. I have never believed that Sami feared EJ,I do not believe that fear was Sami’s reason for hiding Grace from EJ, it was spite.Everything that is happening now is nothing more than a bad, ill planned,nonsensical rewrite.I do not buy any of it, Sami and Rafe are totally and completely wrong for the way that they manipulated everyone around them.I use to love that I could escape the ho hum of everyday life by watching Days. I think I will love it again,(maybe even more) when the sl’s start to make sense to me again.Allowing of course for the fact that I AM watching a soap opera.
Comment by Lynn — June 14, 2009 #
Nobody knows for sure about Johnny. We can only assume that the DiMeras weren’t lying (fat chance). And yes, anyone who’s willing to use their child’s stem-cells to save their father must be a great parent. And people wonder why Sami didn’t want EJ to know about Grace–er, Sydney.
Comment by S. E. — June 14, 2009 #
Nice try, but still not quite true. Do we watch the same show?When EJ wanted to get Sami pregnant, a child was an abstract idea for him. Once EJ was aware that Sami was pregnant for sure EJ bent over backwards to protect Sami and the twins. EJ had absolutely NO intention of allowing any harm to come to Sami or the babies, even when EJ WASN’T sure if the babies were even his. That did not matter to EJ,he loved Sami enough that he was willing to do ANYTHING for her, including turning his back on Stefano.I understand wanting to try to give Sami a justification for her actions but there simply isn’t any excuse or omission of facts that can make what Sami and Rafe did to EJ right, both had reasons for not wanting EJ to know about Grace, reasons that were selfish and showed just how weak minded Sami and Rafe’s characters are together.EJ was NOT a bad father or a danger to Grace, Sami knew this better than anybody because of the way EJ PROTECTED Johnny and ALI from Stefano before they were even born and how he CONTINUED to do so after.(YOU DO KNOW THAT Ali is NOT EJ’S daughter right? Yet he continued to care for her/protecting Ali too from Stefano as if she was his own child, some BAD father. I wish that all men could be bad Dad’s like that. There would be thousands of children who would no longer be fatherless. Oh, and EJ DIDN’T try to STEAL Ali away from her real father(Lucas) in order to protect or care for Ali either
Comment by Lynn — June 15, 2009 #
I find BAD EJ very interesting but make no mistake he is a KILLER! He shot John and ordered a hit on Phillip because Tony fell down. Nuff said.
Comment by happyme — June 15, 2009 #
I just remembered something. EJ tested Johnny to see if he was his, but he never tested Ali. Why didn’t he test both twins?
Comment by S. E. — June 15, 2009 #
I wish that they will find out obout Nicole stealing sam’s baby and mia should’ve told Will about the baby she had that might get Will thinking since he is the smartest person on the show.like Will and Mia together best.E.J. use to be my favoret until he became a demera again. When is Steve and Kayla coming back? I also like Steph she is the nicest one in the bunch.
Comment by Donna — June 15, 2009 #
Yeah, he may have shot John and put a hit on Philip but the real concern Sami had from day one was to keep Grace away from EJ to keep her safe. However, make know mistake he is portrayed as a great father, who Sami has said herself, which was one of the reasons she forgave him for all his wrong doings in the past. Not to mention, who’s to say she is the safest person to raise a child with all the shenanigans she pulled. Anyhow, EJ showed her that he would be there for his children and if necessary, betray his own family to keep them safe. So, I compleltely agree with Lynne. There was no real reason to keep the truth from EJ other than spite and jealously. It just shows that the writers contradict themselves. Wasn’t there a death of one of the main writers right smack in the middle of all this when Sami was transistioned into the safe house? That’s when gears shifted to a 180 and Sami and EJ were written apart.
Comment by Alison — June 15, 2009 #
That is true, EJ did. He also SAVED John from Stefano,still managed to be a good father to Johnny and kept Johnny from forgetting Sami while Sami was away.( How ironic is it that EJ wanted Johnny to know and love his mother at a time when Sami was trying to replace EJ’s position in Grace’s life with anyone that she could find willing to do it, first Lucas, who was smart enough not to,(shocker, sometimes Lucas DOES actually use that brain of his, wish he could use that type of insight when it comes to Chloe *sigh*) then Rafe to condone and support Sami’s scheme out of his own desire to be a father to a child, any child) Sami also decided to keep Grace from EJ LONG BEFORE EJ order the hit on Phillip. To me,you can not use the current actions of EJ to justify the unreasonable decision that Sami made at a time when she was only angry at EJ because of Nicole(not for any other reason)and Sami only continued to stand by that decision because she was under pressure from Rafe.
Comment by Lynn — June 15, 2009 #
I like EJ. There is just something about him when he’s good or bad.
I also think “Mr. I’m still with the FBI” Rafe is going to end up solving the baby switching case! He notices Nicole is very emotionally attached to the outcome of what happened to Grace and then the spoilers say something that he figures something out about Mia, etc. Now it may take him a while but I think he might end up putting two and two and three together.
Comment by Deb — June 15, 2009 #
I read that Will is the one who gives Sami some genetic clues in terms of Sydney’s eye color. I’d rather Will be the hero here and not Rafe as he doesn’t deserve to get all the credit for this coming out.
Comment by Alison — June 15, 2009 #
i too have been watching days since doug and julie, bo and hope younger days, and i agree the chemistry between ej and sami, amazing! i always wanted sami and lucus together until ej came along. dont punish ej for sami being a BTCH! she already has a demeria so whats up with 2 nice try sami, ej loves his kids and yours. as for dr dan saying fever does not cause miningitis (gail) not true, my daughter had a fever, went into a seizure and they found she had miningitis, (not the dangerous one, of course they are not sure because they pumped her with antibiotics. but she is well now thank god! alittle tid bit for you all.
Comment by missy — June 16, 2009 #
AMEN Alison, I second that wholeheartedly.I also want Will to be the one who figures out what Nicole did. I also think that this would wake Sami up to the fact that she should have put her faith in her son instead of a stranger. Once Will and Mia figure it out(Mia has the missing puzzle pieces that Will needs) Maybe then Sami will realize that if she HAD told Will earlier, Sydney would have spent less time with Nicole.talk about Karma biting both Sami AND Nicole right in the ass.lol no two could deserve it more.Don’t you find it odd that Sami trusted TWO of her lovers with Grace’s paternity and yet not Will, her own son? Sami is screaming everyday that it was all to protect Grace, how about protecting Will too,he is Sami’s child also and Will was hurt and jealous first of the “adoption”, protective mother that Sami “is”, you would think that Sami wouldn’t want ANY of her children to be hurt or suffer if she could help it,and Sami COULD of helped Will.(I guess protecting her son’s feelings don’t count for much with Sami) I think that Will is old enough to understand and help his mother, Sami sure did trust Will to babysit Grace every five minutes so that Sami could spend time with Rafe.I guess that kind of trust only matters when Sami wants something for herself. I do believe that Will would have done a better job at keeping Sami’s secret than Lucas did.lol. Is any one else freaked out and pissed off by Rafe trying to act like he is the father of EVERY ONE of Sami’s children?Rafe, go have your own already, you are REALLY starting to scare me. I hope that I get to see Lucas punch Rafe in his face too.Rafe has been overstepping many, many boundaries with Will and would deserve it. It is just not Rafe’s place to interfere (BIG time daddy complex, right up there with Nicole’s obsession/delusion with Sydney)Rafe has NO IDEA of all the crap that Sami put Will through(even if Rafe did, it is not his place to try and parent Will, Will already HAS a father, one that is good to him, so how about we see more Lucas and Will scenes, and less Rafe stalking Will scenes, just a suggestion. )I personally think Will was mad at Sami on behalf of Grace too. Will knows first hand how it feels to not know who you really are growing up, Will thought that his uncle was his father for a while thanks to Sami wanting to be with Austin over Lucas,( Sami switched the D.N.A test results) stuff like that leaves scars on children that they can never fully heal from.(even in the soap world, the kid is bound to be messed up)Will did not like the idea of his mother inflicting the same type of pain on his sister that he had experienced first hand. I believe that Grace would have grown up and resented Sami(just like Will) for making her feel like an outsider in her own family, making Grace believe that she was adopted when in fact Grace wasn’t.Thinking that she was adopted would have always made Grace feel different from the rest of her family,(like Max) no matter HOW well Sami treated her,leaving Grace to deal with issues that were imaginary is a horrible thing for Sami to do to her child.Can you imagine the damage inflicted on Grace’s psyche when she found out Sami was her mother all along(can anyone say Lexie and Celeste)Even if EJ really was(NOT) a factor in Sami’s decision(as Sami keeps claiming) Sami was inflicting more harm on Grace by lying to her about who she really was than EJ being her father ever could.Imagine being told that your mother abandoned you at a convent at birth, no child should be made to believe that they were EVER unwanted, no matter what.
Comment by Lynn — June 16, 2009 #
I don’t think I can take anymore of this whole baby switch situation any more! EJ&SAMI are meant to be together (sorry for all you RAFE lovers out there). I love RAFE, I just don’t think him and SAMI are a good couple. Better off as friends. I just wish the truth of the baby switch can be out already so EJ can kick NICHOLE to the curb, and admit to the love he always had, and will forever always have with SAMI! And as for STEFANO supporting NICHOLE in this whole scheme, I think he just dug his own grave. I don’t think EJ will want anything to do with his “fathu” if and when he finds out STEFANO knew along, and went with it, even helping and encouraging NICHOLE all along. It’s getting all out of hand, and a little boring with the whole “close, but not yet” way the whole baby switch is being portrayed.. OUT WITH IT ALREADY PLEASE!!!!!
Comment by Sara — June 16, 2009 #
Rafe was great when he came on, they need to reveal that he is still FBI and soon! Otherwise, he is being written too weak and a bit of a hangeron. He is a fantastic leading man and deserves to have a career instead of having to float around and talk about Sami. Sami and Nicole, quite frankly, have dropped the ball with this baby switch sl. Case in point – when Eileen Davidson played Kristen in a similar kind of story that dragged out, she was exciting! Sami and Nicole say their lines the same way again and again and again. Yawn! Elvis is doing a great job as the new generation of DiMera, though I could not care less who they pair him with. I used to find Sami fun with Lucas (memba when he kept popping up and saying you did it again when hospital records were switched!) Now Sami screams and acts rather erratic with her decision making, as others have pointed out on this forum. She seems to be overeacting and that is why it looks like the character has very little common sense. An actress could have said she is doing this to protect her daughter in such a way that we would wonder what else she is thinking, but she did not, she just kept spitting out the line. Nicole used to be fun but she whines when given too many lines. I miss how she was when she waltzed into town with Pookie and her flamboyant outfits.She was excellent in that film noir too. My view on Sami and Nicole is that they should be given lighter storylines they can handle. I must say, I am pleasantly surprised by the way Shelley Henig is losing it, she is doing a very good job. I wonder who she will get together with when she ends it with Phlip and walks away from his family…
Comment by ANNA — June 16, 2009 #
I agree – the baby switch story line needs to END, now. Enough!
I like EJ good or bad. I liked Nicole better when she had more of a back bone and wasn’t so whiny. I’d like to see more of Melanie.
Comment by Jill — June 16, 2009 #
A lot of you are talking about Sami using the excuse that she was protecting Grace from EJ but you don’t buy it because he’s such a good father etc etc. Remember that she went to tell EJ the day she witnessed the mayor being shot. She also tried to tell him several times once she had Grace home with her. Her biggest gripe is that she was protecting Grace from the Dimera FAMILY, not really EJ. It’s Stefano that she fears and rightfully so. I think Sami was good with Lucas (and keep hoping they’ll get back together) but her chemistry with EJ can’t be beat – they are great together – who else could stand up to EJ like Sami? Could you imagine EJ telling Sami to stay out of his business – she’d laugh at him and remind him that he may be a Dimera but SHE IS SAMI.
Comment by Jaclyn — June 16, 2009 #
You are forgetting that Sami also accused EJ of trying to kill Philip. As for her laughing at him and reminding him he may be a DiMera but she is Sami, that will only work until Stefano walks into the room. Then she will hyperventilate and pee her pants until Rafe the action hero jumps out from behind her … It’s all so silly now. Time to move forward. Mia is more mature than Sami and Nicole put together!
Comment by happyme — June 16, 2009 #
I think that Stephanie should be paired with Nathan instead of Melanie. A another generation of a Brady/Horton love match could prove to be quite interesting….I also feel that Melanie is better suited to Phillip then a “good girl” character like Stephanie.I like Melanie. I find Melanie to be a funny and entertaining character that adds some desperately needed lighthearted moments to the show. I hope the writers allow them to switch.( Steph/Nathan, Mel/ Phillip) I never really cared for Stephanie, in fact I quite honestly hated when she was in a scene because all she ever did was cry, whine, beg, cry some more and then act self righteous with everyone else, so I must say that I agree with her being more enjoyable to watch now that she is being given lines that don’t involve her begging, crying or threatening to leave Phillip every ten minutes.IMO, I hate when they portray a female character as being needy, clingy, or weak and helpless without the male love interest. It is more romantic and realistic to watch the male and female characters take turns helping, needing and saving each other.I wonder if Carly coming back is going to spell trouble for Bo and Hope or if Lawrence and Nicky will be returning in the future also? I was thinking that Carly may end up playing some type of role in helping to return Zack to Bo and Hope(maybe she came across some information regarding Zack in Europe, the writers could make this the reason for her return) since I saw that Bo is supposed to have another vision involving Zack, I am hoping that the writers have decided to bring Zack back to the show and Carly being involved with the return of Zack would make for an awesome sl imo. Carly, Bo and Hope working together would probably end up being the show stopper performance that Days seems to be looking for. All three are great actors and have proven that they could handle the more dramatic scenes with great skill. Anybody have any ideas? Has any one heard anything more regarding Carly’s return?
Comment by Lynn — June 16, 2009 #
What a great idea that would be to have Carly involved in a Zack is really alive storyline! And they could soras him too …
Just read on the cast page that Justin Kiriakis is coming back. Sounds good!

I guess every one can see now why Sami hide Grace from E.J The man is pure evileand a madman .But because he,s goodlooking thats ok with the fans.. .This baby story is so boreing.I think I,ll quit for awhile , at least until the baby story line is threw.The only thing worth watching is Sami&Rafe MALENEY&Brady Bo&HOPE.can,t stand to watch E.J/Nicole ,PHILLIP/STEPHNEY/ chole/Lucasstory line.
Comment by patsy — June 17, 2009 #
Bleah. The entire baby switch story line was WAAAAAAAAAY lazy of the writers. Yeah lazy. There was nothing creative involved and too many holes. Please. And as for the baby death as a hope to get a boost in ratings, shame on the writers.
Let’s be honest. They write Lumi very crappy and have for a few years now. Lucas was overbearing, rude, and written to treat Sami like crap. There are nostalgic moments. People want to cling to that but in truth, lucas can be an ass.
Ejami has hot passion but is written as if the players have umpteen personalities. Safe is nauseating. It’s not got the …. well something is just missing. Maybe Sami should be alone for a while and grow up. Why pair her up with anyone if the choices are so wrong. Once upon a blue moon, Lucas was caring but it was still clear Sami was the “fallback” girl he went to when he couldn’t be with who he really wanted.
Ej and Sami are hot but the personalities are so weird. Both must have mental disorders. Rafe seems sincere but there’s a strain there that just doesn’t seem right. My suggestion is to have Sami diagnosed as Bipolar, give her back her other baby, and let her raise her children and find a career niche, perhaps in designing baby clothes. Sami is like Barbie. Once she stops whining she won’t need Ken.
For those who think she hates EJ, well it seems they are written a bit like Rhett and Scarlet at times. Should they be together? Should it be Lumi, Safe, or Ejami? I think Sami should find her place and stop letting men define her. She’d make a good hero. She’d make a good villain. The whiny stuff is old and gives me nothing to desire from Days right now. For me, Sami is the “every woman” character. That is the crown jewel for any soap to maintain. I don’t want to think that “every woman” is such a mess.
Comment by ADM — June 17, 2009 #
I agree with ADM, Sami should be alone until she can get her life sorted out, which is going to take a hell of a lot of effort. As for Zack being brought back from the dead, it sounds nice, but haven’t we had enough people rise from the dead already? The undertakers in Salem must be making a very nice living with these people dying 3 or 4 times. Now I know why everyone seems to have so much money even though they don’t seem to have jobs…life insurance!
Comment by S. E. — June 17, 2009 #
I am wondering if Rafe’s past and his secret life with Emily and the mystery woman who is coming to Salem will lead to Rafe being exposed as a shady character and not the supposed “good guy “that Rafe is currently viewed as being now?I am starting to believe that this may be possible. The similarities between the history of Ejami’s and Safe’s love story are very similar(Sami falls in water, EJ/Rafe BOTH rescue Sami, Sami needs protection from Stefano EJ/Rafe BOTH are in witness protection with Sami,Sami developes feelings for BOTH Rafe/EJ due to the time spent together in the safe houses, Rafe/EJ BOTH come to town as good guys(history of BOTH vague at first) that try to romance Sami BOTH times Sami is already in love with someone else,and yet BOTH times Sami developes feelings and gets involved with BOTH men romantically without first knowing who BOTH of them are really all about,Only later on was it revealed that EJ was not who he first appeared to be and boy was his secret a doozy with a capital D.lol I see a pattern here.(you think? It wasn’t really hard to find) This all makes me believe one of two things-1. The writers know that it was a big mistake to mess up EJ and Sami’s love story the way that they did and are trying to recreate the same type of love story/effect now with Rafe as EJ’s substitute with Sami(it worked so well the first time around, I believe that the writers were looking for a second chance at recapturing the same type of magic with a DUPLICATE love story for Sami and Rafe (mission failed, the ORIGINAL is always better) OR…. 2. The writers have no new ideas for introducing a character other than what has already been done and Rafe will most assuredly turn out to be a bad boy too.If I give the writers the benefit of the doubt(which I find very hard to do) I think that seeing Rafe as a bad boy may liven up his character some what because right now he is creepy and boring,imo so hell it couldn’t hurt anything right? I also would like to point out that the writers are PAID to know Salem’s history. There should be no reason that a fan is the one who has to point out a characters history in a blog.(but I will to help them out) Maggie did not come to Salem alone , Maggie came to Salem with Mickey.(Maggie told Mia yesterday that she came to Salem alone, not true) WRITING STAFF AT DAYS: Don’t you guys have proof readers that are supposed to catch these types of mistakes BEFORE the cast is handed the script?????If not, may I suggest that you hire a FEW…….today.

I thought to myself the other day that Nicole’s face was starting to fill out and the shirt with the long tie on the back of it was not something she would normally wear as I noticed it was “baggy” in the front. Well I just read that Arianne Zucker is pregnant in real life. So that explains it. LOL But her pregnancy will not be written into the show. I can understand a little now why she can get so emotional on the show about baby Grace. Her hormones must be going crazy. LOL
Comment by Deb — June 18, 2009 #
I think Rafe and Chloe would make a good pairing. I think her and Daniel will never work…it all started as an affair and their relationship will not be more than lust. By the way, she is beautiful but her eyes creep me out at times…they bug out all the time! Anyhow, back to the baby s/l…maybe in the end EJ will come to realize Nicole betrayed him as well as his father. He will then forgive Sami and he’ll realize she did the right thing by trying to protect her from Stefano. A decent, loving father would not hide such a thing from his son, just for his own personal gain. I can always hope but I’m sure it’ll be September and this board will still be guessing when this will be all over and done with.

Naaa, too much bad blood between EJ and Sami and it will grow. especially when he gets custody of Johnny! The show has just done a big photoshoot of Rafe and Sami TOGETHER so there seems little more to guess as far as those couples are concerned, other than will EJ ever forgive Nicole?

Comment by Jill — June 18, 2009 #
Lynn,
I think that with the popularity of SAFE right now, and them declaring their love for each other, they are here to stay. Almost every site has them as the #1 couple on DAYS and the #2 couple in SOAPLAND. That recent NBC photoshoot in the park kind of says it all, IMO.
I think when Rafe first came to DAYS, they left his character wide open to see how the fans took to him and to SAFE. Now that the writers know, they are establishing them as a major couple on the show. From what I understand, the woman who comes to Salem is Rafe’s ex-girlfriend’s sister, Meredith Howard, who has been hired by Stefano to throw Rafe off the track of the baby switch since he is getting closer and closer. Emily is his girlfriend who passed away. We don’t know why, yet, but he does visit her grave next week and tell her he is sorry. My guess is that he is not evil— he is too popular for that– but that maybe he was protecting Emily and she died while under his protection.
Happyme– I totally agree with you. I don’t think Ej was even in any of the pictures with Sami that I saw.

From what I have read, John is not coming back and neither are Belle and Shawn. I read somewhere that this is the reason for Sami not being as “bad” as she was before– Belle was always the good girl and now that she and Marlena are gone, they have given the role to Sami.
Comment by Gail — June 19, 2009 #
Would love to see SAFE happen even though I was a huge EJamie fan. I hope once Sami finds out about Sydney that EJ becomes extremely obsessed with her much like Stepheno was with Marlena. If we’re going to repeat some stuff, let THAT be the repeat.
Before I go away though, I wanted to point some things out.
1) I agree that the writers need to have a proof reader or someone familiar with Days past.
2) They had Lucas be the one that shot EJ AFTER they already showed Lucas come home AND check his box with the gun still in there AFTER the shooting. Making the whole him being in jail thing just extremely crappy!
3) EJ/Sami had real chemistry. Although Rafe is real touching and nice and all, I don’t see real sparks between characters, but I still love them.
4) I do wish the writers will stop writing for the younger soap watchers. I’ve been watching days for well over 20yrs and I hate where its going. Watch the ratings! How dare you get rid of real s/l to bring in newer boring ones?
And seriously, I am tired of the whole Chloe/Lucas/Daniel thing.
Lookin forward to some story with moral development in them for a change. Bring back the old days.
Comment by JustaThought — June 19, 2009 #
I wish they would keep Kate out of the Dan and Chloe SL. It would be more interesting to see them together as a solid couple and then maybe have problems from the outside that they tackle together. I just read that Kate goes though with poisoning food intended for Chloe. What are we now PASSIONS? Is Lucas gonna be the new blue guy? The writers need to stop demeaning his character. Brian D. is a smart talking interesting guy who could pull off his own decent storyline. Give him a chance!
Comment by ANNA — June 20, 2009 #
I wished they would end this baby story line to but looks like we are going to have four to six more months of the E.J./Nicole show..
Comment by patsy — June 20, 2009 #
I am wondering if Justin and Carly are gonna become a couple since they are being brought on at the same time.
I just read the quote of the day and Will is such a jerk I almost cannot believe it!
Comment by happyme — June 22, 2009 #
Kate really annoys me. She has alot of nerve going after those who hurt her children but look what she did to Chelsea!! With Dan the man at that. They had an affair while Chelsea and Dan were seeing each other and then Kate got involved by sleeping with Dan during that time. So it’s ok for Kate to hurt her children/grandchildren and then all she can say is “I’m sorry” but it’s not ok for somebody outside the family to do so and then have her plot a huge revenge plan on them?? What a hypocrite.
Comment by Deb — June 22, 2009 #
Kate gets on my nerves. She needs something else to occupy her time.
I’m happy to see Lucas supporting Sami!
I think I’m going to like Melanie and Nathan – but maybe down the road Melanie and Philip and Nathan and Stephanie.
Comment by Jill — June 23, 2009 #
Ya..I agree with bringing Belle and Shawn back. Where are they!?!
Comment by manna — June 23, 2009 #
I wish Sami would of had a recorder with her when she dropped off Johnny at EJ’s
Comment by Jennifer — June 24, 2009 #
Kate is just a bitch. Haha. She’s getting on my nerves too, she should just back off. I can understand her wanting to protect Lucas but he’s a grown man! and killing Chloe?! uhhh not a good idea. Kate’s a psycho. But I feel really bad for Sami. EJ is being a huge jerk right now. He’s pissing me off. And it seems like Nicole and Rafe are getting kinda close… not that close but their starting to warm up with eachother. What if down the road the writers pair them up?! Ahhh! Nightmare! Anywayy, EJ says he’s never gonna forgive Sami but we all know that, thats a load of crappp. EJ will always have feelings for Sami whether he likes it or not.
Happyme, yeah Will is a jerk. I’m sick and tired of him being so freaking nosey too. He’s ALWAYS mad at Sami for some stupid reason. He’s kind of a wuss. And when he heard EJ say that he’s taking Johnny, Will didnt seem upset at all! If that was me in that situation, I wouldnt want anyone taking my little brother! Will needs to get over himself, and stop feling bad for himself. He’s such a pussy sometimes! And Mia is getting annoying too. I dunno why? And do you guys remember that “Kinsey” girl that was a Java Cafe talking to Mia. Kayyy she made me wanna jump into the TV and punch her in her ugly face! Oh my gosh she made me mad! Haha Her and her horrible attutude. Ugh. But Atleast the storylines are interesting… sorta… Ha can’t wait till EVERYTHINGG anout the baby switch comes out!!!
Comment by Chloe — June 24, 2009 #
I think Belle and Shawn are still sailing around the world. From what I heard, they are not returning.
Sami having a recorder with her would have been great. Too bad Sami didn’t think ahead that far.
Comment by Gail — June 24, 2009 #
I hope that the writers remember that Brady is Bo’s nephew, it would be nice to see a sl with Bo that included Brady. Carly is set to return soon, maybe that could be the link(Brady) to a sl involving Bo, Hope, Victor, Carly and Justin. Carly and Isabella were good friends for some awhile before Isabella died. It would be natural for Carly to want to see how Brady is doing.Justin is Brady’s older cousin,all of the ties that exist to Brady….wow,the sl’s could be endless… I would like to see the show utilized these in a more creative way than the sl Brady is currently being given. I really hope they do. I don’t know about anyone else, but Marlena/John’s shoes are not being filled by Brady, bring them back and let Brady move onto more interesting sl’s than bumping into people and spouting advice.
Comment by Lynn — June 25, 2009 #
I agree. I’d like to see Brady have more going on.
I like the spoiler that says Steph and Nathan grow closer. I think Melanie will be good with Philip.
Nicole is surprising me. I did not expect her to have a heart.
Comment by Jill — June 25, 2009 #
Yeah, well, right now Nicole has a heart b/c she is feeling guilty over Grace’s death, but how long will that last??? Especially when she realizes how close Rafe is getting to finding out that she must have done something. I understand she goes to Stefano and he plans to cause trouble for Rafe to get him off the baby switch trail for awhile. Nicole is not going to let her world cave in to help anyone else.
Comment by Gail — June 25, 2009 #
Dang Rafe was so sexy to day.I love his eyes, they are so kind and care kind. Rafe and Mia could pass as daughterand father, they look so much alikein the eyes. That would be great if they went that route.Please keep Sami and Rafe together.Just let her get her children away from E.J.and NICLOE.
Comment by patsy — June 25, 2009 #
i JUST READ WHERE aRIANNE/NICOLE wants to keep JAMES/EJ as a partneron the show ALL time I thought it was just James Wonder how their life partners fill about that?Just couris
Comment by patsy — June 25, 2009 #
Forget I just wrote that above ,it just made me so angury when I read that
Comment by patsy — June 25, 2009 #
I think Melanie and Phillip together as a couple is a great match. Phillip is written as too serious sometimes and Melanie’s character is the exact opposite, imo Melanie and Phillip together would help to balance each other out.(kind of like Tony/Anna)If Melanie and Phillip end up being written in that way(classis sl) Days would finally have a fun,interesting couple back that the viewers could all cheer for.I have my fingers AND toes crossed……lol
Comment by Lynn — June 25, 2009 #
I just read in a spoiler that Melanie, Nathan, Brady and Arianna are going to play strip poker at the Horton cabin. All I can say is YUCK. I think with the obvious age difference between the two couples that this is like children playing strip poker with their parents, imo this just does not seem to fit together well. Maybe if the couples were Melanie/Nathan Phillip/ Stefanie or Brady/ Arianna Nicole/ EJ it would not seem so disturbing…. I know this is a soap and that they won’t show too much, I just think sl’s work better when the writers have the characters around the same age interacting with each other(in scenes with sexual overtones anyway)
Comment by Lynn — June 29, 2009 #
What do you guys think about the poll on Sami and Nicole becoming friends at NBC.com? Is that supposed to be a joke or what? I know Ari is pregnant in real life, so I am wondering if the writers are trying to tone down the baby switch reveal by making Sami and Nicole start to bond…I can understand, I have two children… but as a fan, and after suffering through this sl for the last year, imo THIS would be a great big let down by the writers once AGAIN. Nicole and Sami as enemies are fantastic to watch, when these two actresses go at it I can not stop laughing. I hope the writers do not take away yet another enjoyable element of Days history.I think that the writers should look for another way to expose the switch other than a friendship angle, bring Baker back, have Stefano threaten Baker into saying the switch was an accident, Stefano tells EJ, eventually EJ tells Sami,switch revealed, sl OVER. Then give Stefano his own sl that does not revolve around being Nicole’s lackey, pit Stefano against EJ in a search of an all powerful object, involve others in the quest.bring back the adventure/ mystery to the show. Joe is a wonderful actor and his talent is being wasted in this current sl, Stefano is STILL on this show, USE HIS CHARACTER……
Comment by Lynn — June 29, 2009 #
I wonder how Rafe’s fiancee Emily died …
Comment by ANNA — June 29, 2009 #
We watched (sadly) today as Philanie was separated. Snif. I hope that this is not a permanent problem. I would like to see them back together. Just had a thought – wouldn’t it be funny if Mel got them back together? If you look at the pics in Days of Summer you see Philanie kissing and being together. Just as much as Safe is together, in fact. I like Mel and Nathan together. I like the fact that they are having Mel in Nursing school – I just hope that they make it realistically hard! NO Soras here, folks! Make her work for it…
Comment by Pat — July 1, 2009 #
Melanie belongs with Philip, she could also handle the Kiriakis link, unlike Stephanie. Mel will try to get them back together and they will not work. Gee I understand Corday will end the baby switch story just before DECEMBER! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I just pulled out half my hair!
Comment by ANNA — July 1, 2009 #
—it’s been awhile since i’ve posted on here,..so first thing is ..KATE what is wrong with this nut..snow white ripoffs.. a better story would be if phillip had to have surgery and realized that his D.N.A didn’t match victors…kate lied about who his father really is…not Victor’s but maybe young DR,DANIEL’s son..remember she had an affair with him years ago..dr,dan could pass for a man in his prime mid to late 40’s…dr,dan could have went on graduation night to strip club and ran into hooker kate…….this could work..i think…great story line for vic/dan/phil/lucas/chloe….also dr,dan sleeping with his own son’s leftovers is kind of ickey..lol
- phillip needs to get mad at momma kate about her treatment of chloe..imo…this is the woman he always falls back to..he breaks up with stephanie and turns to chloe,..she has a fight with lucas and can’t trust daniel, so she turns to phillip…this pairing works..why mess with it..
–Stephanie just needs to leave the show…i don’t like her character at all….unless you the writers deside to show the back side of prostitution s/l. …victor sets stephanie up in a hotel room, to do titan business deal..only it’s not really business..just a set up for sex…she is video taped/and blackmailed by victor to be his beck-and-call girl..he wants to punish her for phillip and brady…not to mention kate’s problem with her ,,in regardes to phillip risking his life for her all the time…her contantly breaking up with him…her putting sami’s needs over Kiriakis family needs…not a good choice for her to make..imo..lol this would show a young girls decent into the world of sex crimes and drug addiction, also back alley abortion clinics…suicide attempts and petty thief to pay for drug habits….this is a good s/l for the show……you’ve only shown the hero helping the girl after years of abuse…never the decent into the abuse…this would be a new twist on a old s/l…………………….obviously stephanie would be pitied as the hapless victem…this could work..!!!
-this story line could take up to #2 years to tell on the show…if written right..imo…
Comment by froggefairy — July 1, 2009 #
Froggefairy, Hello! It might work, but I really can’t say that I like it! Stephanie is that good, sweet girl of the piece. Typically, there has to be a bad boy/woman, a bad girl/woman, a sort of transition character of both sexes and a reforming character of both sexes. This way, the writers have multiple choices for opposites and foiling one character off of another. Usually, the person being reformed does so by loving, being influenced by, or by being saved/saving the good one. That is why, to me, Stephanie and Philip work. They do need to find her backbone, and Philip does need to come up to snuff, but if you look on the Days video clip, every shot of Philanie is of them “eating face…” I think that the writers like them, too, but realize they are rather diverse people who will need to come to accommodation, like Bo and Hope did, years ago.
And for once, I’d like a couple together I can cheer for! Ejole does nothing for me, nor does Safe. Brianna might be okay, and they seem to be grooming that one. Nathan and Mel should be good, too as they will also have a lot in common. Chloe, well, Philip has always been her fall-back boy, but Stephanie might have put her Chloe right out of his mind! I think Philip will fight to keep Stephanie and may man up more than you think!
And for once, I am liking Lucas! He is funny, caring, WORKING, and providing for his family. Has any other character bought a house for their wife? Nada. Only Lucas. I’d love to see Philanie become Luloe’s neighbors… Can I borrow a cup of sugar?
If the PTB can’t see Philanie work, well, I can take Mel and Philip together – but DO REMEMBER Mel is only 18 and Philip is about 28. They would be funny, but I think Mel would exasperate Philip beyond all belief. And Philip NEEDS and CRAVES unconditional love. Not so sure Mel is up to that from what she went through earlier in life.
Comment by Pat — July 2, 2009 #
I heard that if Ali Sweeney signed another contract with Days then the baby switch s/l would go on; if she hadn’t then it would end in Sept. Guess she signed or is going to b/c this s/l is going on until december.
Rumor has it that Stefano has a plan in mind for Rafe. Uh-oh.
Comment by Gail — July 2, 2009 #
So, Rafe’s past loves name was Emily. But the very first time a name was ever mentioned from his past Ari and Rafe called her Heidi??? So, did they change the name from Heidi to Emily, or is there a Heidi also??? I’m kinda lost….
Comment by April — July 3, 2009 #
I think they either forgot the original name was Heidi (I heard that too) or Heidi will be Emily’s alias or another person. What I find strange is that this Emily seems to have been only 20 years old a couple of years ago. Sami is supposed to be in her mid-30s and Rafe is thirty something as well. Ari said it was all happening again when Rafe started getting innvolved with Sami’s kids and now we find out his dead fiancee Emily was very young??? Rafe should have been Mia’s father or something.
Comment by ANNA — July 3, 2009 #
Also, I am gonna scream if they create a Bo and Hope and Carly triangle!LAME!
Comment by ANNA — July 3, 2009 #
I wonder if Ari had something to do with Emily’s death. She and Rafe did have a falling out a couple of years ago so I wonder if it was because of Emily that they didn’t keep in touch over the years?!!
Comment by Deb — July 6, 2009 #
Does anyone think that nothing will come of Kate poisoning Chloe? I have a feeling even if it does get figured out that Kate did it, she’ll get away with it.
I hope I’m wrong. Kate is a nut job.
Comment by Jill — July 7, 2009 #
Love Rafe and Sami!
I think Ari is protecting Rafe as a sister would do! With Emily, I think Rafe could have been the target of a jealous girlfriend (maybe the new girl from his past that is coming on board) but Emily was the one who paid the ultimate price.
I still say, if anyway possible, please keep Rafe and Sami together because I think they are John and Marlena all over again. They are an awesome team, in my book!! T-Terrfic, E-Exciting, A-Awesome, M-Meant to be! just like John and her mom, Marlena. They can take up where J/M,S/B,J/J,D/J left off!!! Thanks!
Comment by Donna — July 7, 2009 #
More I think about it, I think Emily may have committed suicide or it was made to look like she did. I originally thought she was murdered but the preview shows Rafe holding a newspaper article stating her death was mysterious. I also believe Ari was involved in Emily’s life somehow. Since this story line seems to be taking forever to unfold, I’m curious to hear what others are thinking.
Comment by Lisa — July 7, 2009 #
—I think that Kate will be the obvious suspect in poisoning Chloe…however Lucas will somehow help her excape being charged for it…Victor will not tolerate dr,daniel being framed by Kate..so she will have to marry stefeno to get him to help cover her tracks..this would not be good for Nicole or Elvis…they had an affair, remember…………if BRIAN aka LUCAS wants to leave the show…then he’ll take the blame for his mother…he will be heart broken from Chloe’s affair..and gladly go to prison, just to get away from everyone…
stefeno will have Kate in his house and also Nicole….holy crap-ola..!!! whose missing..oh right sami..lol..that would be some fun dinning imo…
the only way Carly will be interesting is if they pair her with Roman or DR,DANIEL or Rafe…not bo and hope triangle again….that was boring the first time…..maybe Dr,Baker could be her ex-husband….it could work…he gave sami’s baby ,or nicole’s premee to his ex-wife to raise..this would be an interesting twist…yeah..
ooohhhhhhhhh..what if stefeno fixes it to-where sami ends up adopting nicole’s premee baby..now that i would pay good money to see..nicole raising sami’s and sami raising nicole’s..with elvis stuck in the middle..lol…who would he pick.?
Comment by froggefairy — July 7, 2009 #
Maybe Arianna’s boyfriend and Rafe’s fiance had an affair. Then Arianna confronted Emily on her wedding day. The two argued which broke out in a fight. Emily fell and injured her head which result in her death. Out of guilt Ari confessed to Rafe what happened and in order to protect his sister he swore to keep her secret.
Comment by Lisa — July 8, 2009 #
I think Emily’s sister is going to blame Rafe for her sister’s death.
Comment by Lisa — July 8, 2009 #
ok days people you don’t have to watch days to know what is going to happen. Let tell you Kate is always trying to kill Lucas’s girlfriend no matter who it is. So that story line never changes. Sami will try to marry Rafe but the wedding will be stop and again sami’s 10th wedding it on Hold. Another switched baby story you know Sydney will get sick and DNA test that Nicole will try to change will relieve that she is not the mother. Come people this show has been repeating the same story like five times
Comment by Jodi — July 8, 2009 #
Chad is a very in your face kinda guy. If he thinks Sydney is his, look out, Nicole!
Comment by happyme — July 8, 2009 #
I bet EJ will go to jail for his role in the kidnapping, at least for a little while until Stefano can blackmail someone into setting him free.
Comment by ANNA — July 8, 2009 #
Better yet how about it was Ari’s husband and Emily were having an affair because she became very lonely since Rafe was away a lot on FBI assignments. Ari found out and confronted her and they fought where Emily ended up accidently dying. Of course Rafe covered up any evidence that result in any wrong doing on Ari’s part to protect her from possibly going to prison for manslaughter. Later on the autopsy revealed Emily was pregnant. Ari broke the news to him it may have not been his and that’s why they had a following out.
Comment by Lisa — July 10, 2009 #
“falling out” not a “following out”. oops =(
Comment by Lisa — July 10, 2009 #
Donna— Your post is Super!! Love the TEAM for SAFE. THey are great. Hope the writers keep them together. They are a great SUPERCOUPLE for DAYS!!
Comment by Gail — July 10, 2009 #
—–lisa…..ohhh my gosh!!!!!!! wow..now thats a twist i hadn’t thought about..oooooohhhhhhhhh. DR,BAKER can be her ex-husband..he hasn’t seen her yet…and RAFE is always gone away on assignments, that he might not have seen who ARIANNA’s brother is or what his name was..she was going to introduce them at RAFE and EMILY’s wedding..
Comment by froggefairy — July 10, 2009 #
When are you EJAMIFANS GOING TO GIVE UP .Its not going to happen. James /E.J.and Arianne/Nicole wants to be together soooooo beings they are the writers babys they will get what they want.I don,t wantJames /EJ Allison/Sami to be together if they don,t want to star together.It just looses something knowing this .Yes I know it,s a soap opera.
Comment by patsy — July 11, 2009 #
I still would like for Lucas to tell E.J.about all the times Sami tryed to tell him she was pg and he was so hot for Nicole he couldn,t see the end of his noise.It,s his fault he has lost Sami to Rafe I want to see him HURTso bad for all he has put Sami threw.
Comment by patsy — July 11, 2009 #
Can anyone tell me how Nathan Horton fits in the family. I am lost.
Comment by Janice — July 12, 2009 #
I agree, Patsy. EJ has done so much to Sami and the other people in Salem in the three years he has been on the show, that he deserves to lose Sami to Rafe. She has finally found a good man who loves her. There are no hidden agendas here. He may not have told her the entire truth about Emily’s death, but he has told her that she was the love of his life and she died on their wedding day. I predict they will end up together in the end– getting married. Stefano, etc. will try and do something or get someone to stop the wedding, but will not succeed. Rafe will be more careful this time. He won’t let Sami become another Emily.
Comment by Gail — July 12, 2009 #
Is it just me or does the guy playing Nathan Horton look a lot like Austin?
Comment by Misty — July 12, 2009 #
Bleh, I don’t think he looks like Austin. I think the guy playing Nathan is not all that cute at all!
Comment by Deb — July 13, 2009 #
What if, I mean seriously WHAT IF EJ still has feelings for Sami and is lashing out b/c of them? What if the chemistry EJAMI has sorta threatens SAFE a lil? Wouldn’t that be a s/l to get into? Having EJAMI bump into each other in the hallways and then EJ throwing that sexy accent against her and then before her legs fall from under her, RAFE comes in and sweeps her away. Now that I could watch! Anyhoo, back to reality:
1) Lucas was always smarter than the writers are making him. Now, he’s just sadly pathetic. I hate the loser twist they put on him.
2) Stephanie might actually work a bit with Phil. I haven’t ruled them out yet even tho they wrote them apart.
3) So very tired of just the younger viewers being catered to. Can’t we have both!? I mean, keep the traditions of Days alive and just mix in some of the new. Perhaps that may spruce the ratings up a spell.
4) Huge summer s/l usually get concluded to make bigger s/l by fall. So why drag out the baby switch thing? It’s getting old and boring. It’s like: do we even care anymore!? I mean, its not like Sammi knows anything. This might as well carry on until Sydney’s adult years. Pfft!
5) Okay, the Dimera’s are smart, but what about the Kiriakis!? Vic isn’t a dummy. He should already know what Kate’s been up to, but since he HATES Cloe, could care less until Dan gets implicated. Any why couldn’t Kate just come up with some elaborate scheme to expose the affair like the old classic Kate usually does!? This new twisted Kate doesn’t fit her at all.
Comment by JustaThought — July 13, 2009 #
Misty: about Nathan looking like Austin: not really
. The only similarity would be the hair.
Comment by JustaThought — July 13, 2009 #
I agree with Safe fans, EJ’s just getting too bitter and annoying for Ejami to spark any interest in me now. Him and Nicole need to give Sydney and Johnny back to Sami and take a long, extended trip in the jailhouse.

Comment by froggefairy — July 14, 2009 #
I,d give anything if Johnny would tell E.J. that he liked being around Rafe because he makes his Mommy happy.That would make my day.
Comment by patsy — July 15, 2009 #
Patsy,
That would make my day too. But I have feeling EJ already knows that since he seems to be filled with jealousy. The idea he can find dirt on a former FBI agent doesn’t seem to be too realistic. EJ is grasping.

Has anybody else been bothered by the fact that they are moving Ciara’s b-day to July, when she was born on Dec. 26? She was being born in a warehouse at the same time that John was being shot by EJ. This is also the same night that Sami was raped and the twins were conceived.***talk about action packed….

Sami keeps repeating she needs Rafe. What say you all? Does she really mean she needs RAFE or does she mean she just needs SOMEBODY?

Sami needs the love of her life and solulmate to get his b— and brain back and see Nicole for what she is and kick her but to the curb.B before Sami and Rafe get any more seriou.Allthough Ireally like this gentle man rafe

Comment by DaffyTaffy 4 elvis — July 17, 2009 #
I think Arianna is an undercover agent. That could be the reason why she doesn’t want to get involved with a recovering drug addict.
Comment by Lisa — July 17, 2009 #
You know, Kate is such an evil thing these days. She has always been a difficult character, but not this bad. Could she be suffering from some sort of reaction to the anti-rejection drug she’s taking for the bone marrow transplant? What are your thoughts on this?
Comment by Pat — July 18, 2009 #
I hope you are right, Pat. I really liked Kate when she was with Roman. I even liked her when she was with John. But the love hate relationship with Kate and Roman created more sparks. Them being an unlikeable pair made them a lot more interesting. I wander if that ship has sailed.
Comment by Lisa — July 19, 2009 #
DaysCafe did break a rumor last March that Kate’s altered mental state was caused by her treatments so I would not be the least bit surprised if this indeed was how the writers planned to explain her evil actions …
http://www.dayscafe.com/rumors-luxury.html
Comment by ANNA — July 19, 2009 #
WHERE is Dr. Baker…? I thought his absence was supposed to be a temporary thing? Does anyone know when he is scheduled to return to Days? I thought that he would play some type of part in exposing Nicole… maybe not, it doesn’t seem as if he was ever a part of the show at all… there has been no mention of Dr. Baker at all, ahhhh well, I guess he is the latest of a long list of characters who once resided in Salem and no longer appear to have ever existed at all….Boo to the writers for forgetting one of the funniest characters I have seen on Days in a long time.
Comment by Lynn — July 20, 2009 #
Lisa – You mentioned Arianna could be a FBI agent…what if Rafe and Arianna aren’t even brother/sister? And they are old partners under cover as brother/sister? Oh that could be interesting…and that is why she doesn’t want to be involved with someone.
Comment by Nik — July 20, 2009 #
Why do the writers always make Sami to be a bad mother and Nicole to be the perfect little mother?It,s digusting how the treat Samis CHARATERAnd how dumb they have made E.J.Thats why I don,t watch any more .Ijust read the spoilers.Maybe after the baby story line is over thet can get some new writers that writes for the whole cast not just one person.
Comment by patsy — July 20, 2009 #
Nice to see some of the spoilers that are popping up, but wondering if anyone else is looking for more of the Stepheno acts that we always saw in the past? The master at work! I know that some are pushing for a Nicole/EJ fix, but I’m wondering if it’s going to take a turn like it was when Nicole was married to Victor. Once her scam is exposed, will he keep her around as prisoner, or will she keep HIM as prisoner since she has insider info. Hmmmmmmmm…
Comment by JustaThought — July 20, 2009 #
Oh! Forgot about Kate:
I still HATE the KATE spin on her. I loved the back in the day, expose Sammi for druggin Austin days and ruining her marriages, but for goodness sake, mental issues or not, they have her written with this stupid spin that makes absolutely no sense. BAH; I hope the spoiler that has Vic talkin to her reveals to HIM that she’s nutty and did it. He hates Cloe so he’ll get Dan off and not expose Kate due to G.P.

I think that Sami should really focus on herself and her kids before getting serious with Rafe. it seems as if she cares more about him than spending more time with her own family. i have nothing aganist Rafe its just that i think maybe he’s hiding way to much from Sami and i really hope that they make EJ get a clue FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did anyone else get a kick out of the exchange between Nicole and Stefano yesterday when the two were talking about Sami and Rafe “getting what was coming to them”? When Nicole said to Stefano, ” What’s gonna happen? are they going to be struck by lightening or drown in quicksand” I must admit that this made me laugh. I don’t know if this was an intentional shout out to the past by the writers or not(I don’t want to give them too much credit) but I enjoyed the irony just the same…. (Stefano was struck by lightening during the Aremid sl while sitting in a wheelchair and Andre later rewritten as the ‘real’ Tony drowned on an island in quicksand after a duel between the two cousins during the prisms sl)If it was intentional writers, keep it up and bring back some of these same type(not identical)of interesting sl’s for the character(Stefano) still left on the show and watch the ratings go through the roof…. give Stefano an older grandaughter from Tony/Andre/Renee/Megan or his own long lost Daughter (older)to add to the dynamics in Salem(she can pair up with Lexie since we dont see Abe anymore and Lexie needs a sl) Renee or Megan one of them should be alive somewhere… it shouldn’t only be the Dimera men who get to return from the dead 20 times…and could you PLEASE give Mia a last name…it is annoying to know Chad’s last name(he just got to Salem) but still not Mia’s( Mia has been on the show for the past year) Please wrap up the loose end… it could lead to a foreshadowing of a great sl if Mia turned out to be related to the Dimera’s herself either through her mother or father.. I would prefer mother since Will and Maggie should already have known by now if Mia’s last name were Dimera…. but they wouldn’t already know what Mia’s mother’s maiden name is……

I wasn’t a huge fan of the current Arianna when she first came to Days, but I think TPTB are making a mistake in letting her go to bring in Theresa from Passions…UNLESS, Theresa was recast for another role(which she wasn’t) As a fan of Days and not Passions, I think that Brady should be paired with Nicole anyway,this would allow me to invest into Brady’s character and to see Brady as becoming a true part of the Days cast, I want to see Brady act with the other cast members of Days, not just an actress that he was paired with for years, that does nothing to allow me to invest in him as the replacement Brady.I don’t want to watch an Etan/ Theresa romance replayed under new names. The few times that I did view Passions I just couldn’t get into the characters… I found them to be annoying and lacking in chemistry.I think Arianna has started to grow on me and I had more interest in what her character was up to… the knowledge of this replacement has killed that for me, I don’t know when the writers are going to get that the fans of Days want to see sl’s that reflect Days history and not Passions reruns… They are letting/have let several talented actors/actresses slip through their fingers(Dr. Baker, Owen, Meredith, Arianna)characters that could have brought on great performances and added new interest to the show all in an effort to try to cater to the ex Passion fans and recreate the romances from that show to please them, this kind of thinking is short term by TPTB, where does it lead to for everyone else? WHAT ABOUT THE TRUE Days FANS……..WHAT do WE GET?
Comment by Lynn — July 23, 2009 #
i just read that Felisha who plays Ari was fired and Lindsay, who played Theresa on Passions will be replacing her. How odd is it that she and Garrick will be playing brother and sister again. I always wondered initially why they didn’t cast her in the first place for that role since they were migrating the Passions actors to Days. Oh, even more funny is that on Passions, she and Ethan (the guy who plays Brady) were deeply in love as well and finally wed at the end of the show. And now on Days they could be paired up again. I loved them together on Passions so we’ll see what Days has in store for them.

It’s time to end Kate s/l completely. I ff anytime she is on. Can’t stand to see her.
It’s time to get Sami dressed and made up to look like the Diva she is instead of the mouse she has been lately. Nicole has always dressed like a queen and Sami ha been being dressed like a frump. She is too pretty to be done that way. Let her be more like the old Sami with a toned down reationary/always crying type. Let her surprise everyone by her new personality. Also, time to end the baby switch. Let Sami win complete parental control over Johnny and Sydney and then Nicole and EJ can commit each other to a lifetime of “You reap what you sow” and they can eat their hearts out over what they have coming.
Comment by Deborah — July 23, 2009 #
It is a major coup that Days was able to snag an experienced heroine to take over Arianna, who has been to much of a drip. Now we just need a Stephanie recast and we’ll be all set!
As for the coment on Sami’s look, I think she is supposed to be more of a real mom than Nicole, who is married to a rich DiMera and has a cheap past. Plus she’s not really a mom lol

Ok as a devoted Days viewer for 30 years as crazy as that may be. Get on with it..!Are the writers to tired to give us what we want then find something new.Time to end the baby switch Nicole and Kate both need to get caught. Find someone to love poor Lucas.Viewers need some conclusion.One more thing this is Days not Passions. Whats next a Witch with a crystal ball.Get on with it!!!
Comment by Jenni — July 25, 2009 #
EJAMI fans beware….I don’t think we will ever get the endall we desire. EJ and Nicole have made it known that they like the s/l of them together and we all know they get what they want. Let’s not be fooled…EJ has either suspected or down right knew about the baby from when Sami left to go into WP. He is not nor ever has been stupid and with all the cameras and THE BABY MONITOR on with Nicole and her mouth running, I think he has always known and is keeping it to himself to punish Sami for rejecting him or pushing him away.
I’ve always wanted to see them work it out; but, I think we are just being teased and afraid it will never be.
Comment by Deborah — July 27, 2009 #
I believe it that Chloe will wake up minus some of her memory. What would be a hoot would be if she did not remember marrying Lucas, and if her entire recent memories were wiped out. Then she would remember leaving Lucas to be with Daniel and none of her silly deal with God nonsense. Also, I wonder what Lucas will do to get REVENGE on both Dan and Chloe. He is Kate’s son, after all …
When I read that EJ gets Grace a headstone that says DIMERA on it, I gad a good chuckle. That poor boy is being made such a fool of, he is gonna hate EVERYONE who misled him!

For those who didn’t catch it, I do believe Mia’s last name is McCormick. When Nicole was talking to Chad on the bench in the park to tell him to stay away from her, she mentioned “Mia McCormick”. Did anybody else catch that or was I hearing things?

Nicole state that Mia’s last name was McCormick… thank God the writers finally gave the poor girl a last name…. now if we could only find out more about Mia and Chad’s family background….. Mia could still have some kind of link to the Dimera”s….. I would be interested to see Chad’s family move to town, I think Salem could use another important family in town….. was anyone else happy to see Roman get a little air time or it just me? If only Mickey were allowed to come down out of the attic as well…..*sigh* I like that Maggie”s character is being given the role of a new Alice Horton but it is just not quite the same without a “Tom” around to help her out….I hope that with all the new/old characters return to Days that the show once again regains it’s mojo….. with these actress/actors there is no reason that it should not….. all that is missing is John and Marlena and I would be 100% content.strike that, it would take John and Marlena, some new sl’s and Rafe’s return to Passions to make me 100% content but for now I will happily settle for these great characters that are returning…… we can’t have everything we want so no point in being greedy…..lol

I don;t think EJ’s dream will really go anywhere, it was just one of those fake cliffhanger things Days likes to do. From what I understand, the baby switch story starts to unravel starting with the teens so we have to keep a close eye on Mia and that diary of hers. It is also interesting that Chad’s mother is a JUDGE haha!

Comment by S. E. — July 31, 2009 #
Does anyone else remember the episode of Days when Kate and Daniel actually discussed the name of the drug that he treated her with. That is where she got the idea to poison Chloe from because he said it was so toxic and untraceable. Why doesn’t he tell Bo about that convo he had with Psycho Kate?!?? Plus the scarf being left at his apt, Lucas was there too, he saw Chloe’s reaction and how upset she was about it, He knows the scarf wasn’t Chloe’s and that Chloe suspected someone else of being in there. Those 2 things right there could lead them to suspect Kate. Bope needs to question Lucas again!
Comment by Godbrik2 — July 31, 2009 #
S.E, I am so happy that Lawrence is returning along with Carly, I didn’t want Carly’s return to involve any kind of triangle with Bo and Hope, all Days needs now is Ivan to return with Vivian and it will be the perfect stage set for a great sl to come….I really enjoyed today’s show, I love the idea of Brady and Nicole together, I hope if Ari decides to stay on the show after her baby is born that these two will be written as a couple, the chemistry between Brady and Nicole in every scene together is great… I know I am in the minority, but I also am enjoying evil Kate, I loved the scenes with Kate and Victor and even though the pace of the sl makes me want to scream, Kate has been acting her face off and for me that is one of the things that has made this sl for the most part tolerable…. sometimes…..I noticed today in the scene with Rafe and Emily that it appeared that they were in the woods and not at a crash site…. I am wondering if the car accident with Rafe and Emily was staged by Rafe to cover up how Emily truly died….???I thought for awhile now that Rafe wouldn’t turn out to be all that he seemed, I could be wrong however, I have thought that he would turn out to be a bad boy just like EJ did when I noticed that the writers were copying EJ and Sami’s love story for Rafe and Sami…..Since Stefano is the king of returning people from the dead( himself included) and we have now seen what Emily looked like and Stefano has made contact with Meredith to dig deeper into the story of what happened to Emily(LOVED SEEING STEFANO WITHOUT EJ AND NICOLE TODAY BY THE WAY) maybe Emily will be returning to Salem in the near future to help expose Rafe to Sami…..?? whether Rafe is a good guy or a bad guy at this point doesn’t really matter, either way Rafe needs to be exposed( to the viewers at least) for what type of role his character is playing before we get even more tired of him than we already are …..I would love to see Lucas come unhinged and get revenge on all the people who have hurt him,(including Kate) nothing too extreme of course, but it would be fun to watch Lucas make them all squirm instead of sucking it up ….Brian has been given crap sl’s for awhile now, I think it is time to see Lucas in a more meaty sl than just the bad luck in love dope that he has been playing…..
Comment by Lynn — July 31, 2009 #
Can someone tell me what the heck is up with rafe/ari/meredith???
First of all meredith told stefano rafe didnt know emily knew his “secret” then why does she think he “killed” her bc of it?
Also he couldnt strategically run a car into a tree and kill her but not himself, plus in his flashback he seemed sad?
Also what is what ari and that guy Brady beat up? what did he give her, what was she saying on the phone that day “Ill get it done”? They are like the mysterio family that I cant figure out and I hate it.
I cant take this suspense, does any one have any idea as to what is with this situation, whats the secret, whats aris secret why was she so ehh about rafe telling sami the truth, it seems like she had nothing to do with emilys death?
I work late sometimes too so I’ve been missing bits and peices, someone fill me in please!
Comment by Ashley — August 1, 2009 #
Ashley, sorry I can’t really help to fill in the blanks for you with true information because there is nothing you have missed the sl’s just are not making much sense to most of us either… Maybe Rafe came across Emily murdered and covered it up with a staged car accident…. or maybe Rafe was chasing her and she died somehow….(broken neck?) either way it seems to be his fault… maybe Meredith thinks Emily finally confronted Rafe on the wedding day with the secret that Emily had discovered about Rafe’s background and that is why he killed her…??Rafe wouldn’t explain why the couple was in the car in the first place to Emily’s family, I don’t know about anyone else but if my family member died and you lived and you were TOGETHER at the time but refused to say EVERYTHING that happened to make that the outcome, I would be pissed and distrust what you were telling me too…. it was a simple question to answer if what Rafe was saying happened was in fact the truth…..I think that is Rafe’s biggest turn off(asides from being paired with Sami and boring as hell, imo) he is acting very childish and self indulgent in matters that are hurtful/important to people other than himself….his attitude now is leaving an even bigger bad taste in my mouth for Rafe’s character… I wish that Rafe would get over himself already and tell the people that he claims to “love/loved” exactly what they need to know in order to either protect themselves from future harm/closure or to move on without Rafe if he is not ready for all of his dirty/clean secrets to come to light…. man up and take whatever is coming to you Rafe…..(good or bad)I have no idea what is up with Arianna myself, there just hasn’t been very much information given (I am starting to detect a pattern here with the writers)… whatever it is shouldn’t be connected to Rafe as they said to each other( ARI and Rafe;not other people) that they hadn’t seen each other for years…. which implied to me that Ari was not around for Emily’s death(because of whatever happened between Ari and Rafe to make them stop talking????) but it does seems as if Ari is aware of all of what really happened on the day that Emily died,but I doubt she was involved/ responsible for Emily “s death, it would be stupid of the writers to blame Emily’s death on Ari(talk about a fizzled out/ disappointing ending ending) unless Rafe and Ari killed Emily together(on purpose) and both are covering it up to protect themselves…. then again….maybe Ari is insane and she is going to drug/poison someone too in the near future, maybe that was what the mystery guy in the park was all about, it could be drugs/poison that she got from him in the park.. Stefano, Rafe, Sami, EJ or Nicole could be Ari’s intended target….. or for all we know about Ari(zip) she could be helping Kate try to kill Chloe…. Maybe Ari is threatened by Brady’s ex wife too, maybe she is secretly stalking Brady, maybe that is what made Ari come to Salem in the first place and Kate and Ari teamed up…..lol Ari could be the newest in a long line of nutcases to hit Salem……I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Rafe’s whole family turns out to be bat shit crazy…..
Comment by Lynn — August 2, 2009 #
Ejami fan’s hang in there looks like SAFE is headed for the skids THANK GOD that pairing sucked big time Rafe is boring and lacklustered and a all around creepy guy. I hope the writers realize the mistake they have made in pairing these two up and break it up quickly the ratings are falling like rocks since Safe and they need to remedy it fast or this show will go bye bye, Ej and Sami could be the the power super couple this show has needed since Doug and Julie if they would just use what they have Jame’s and Ali and great on screen chemistry and it come natural they don’t even have to try it’s like Richard Gere and Julia Roberts it’s just there not forced like Galen and Ali. I say break Safe up put him with Stephanie they can whine each other to death, Put Sami and EJ together and start building the DiMira empire around them Sami and EJ are the same they could rule Salem.
Ashly: Meredeth thinks Rafe killed Emily because she knew something bad about him she never said what. Emily died in a car crash while Rafe was speeding and he wrapped the car around a tree. Ari at this point didn’t even know Meredeth was in town. Bloggers that stated Ari’s hubby slept with Emily were just speculating it never happened. Ari didn’t kill her hit her on the head or anything As far as we know Ari wasn’t even there the day Emily died. Meredeth seems to be on the up and up with what she believes, Stefano will however turn it however he can to make it worse, The car crash was an accident that i am sure of but why it crash remains a mystery and until Mr. secret keeper tells we won’t know. I’m betting he was chasing a bad guy lost control and crashed, probably some one after Ari I think Ari is a undercover cop her cover was blown and he was trying to save her.
I like the idea of Emily coming back that would rock Rafe and Sami’s world wouldn’t it lol. I think the writers maybe listening to the large fan base of people who do not like Safe, and hopefully will split them up, Nicole and Brady do have great on screen chemistry Ari and James don’t have that. The new Teresa (Lindsey) Also has great chemistry with Brady (Eric) so it would be a good fight to see which one of those women would win in a fight over Brady who by the way has been single to long. Maybe it could turn out Brady and Ari end up together Dr. Dan falls for Nicole and Phillip and Chloe end up together. either way just hope they pair EJ and Sami back together they deserve a chance since we have been robbed and jerked around for years with those two.
Comment by Angel — August 3, 2009 #
Thanks lynn and angel! i forgot to include that the newspaper article about emilys death said it was mysterious, and a car hitting a tree bc of speeding isnt too mysterious so I feel like theres more to it. I hate waiting, it’s dumb, but I agree rafe is being immature, and irritating me. I used to like him and sami but now I am rooting for an ejami reunion.esp after ejs dream!
Ari pisses me off, bc shes weird and hard to figure out. Most of these people are pretty simple and predictable, so I guess I should enjoy ari’s complicatedness a little.
Someone lock up kate, I hate her so much, why did victor change his mind? It makes me so mad.If she gets away with this I will be so mad. Also I wanna say dr.dan is a really good actor he’s believeable, lucas is too whiney and he annoys me alot. Im glad to have not seen steph for a few days either, relief!
Whatever happened to owen also, didnt he escape? I love how the writers love to leave loose ends.
ugh!
Comment by Ashley — August 4, 2009 #
I’ve watched Days since it began in 1967 (the year I got married). So sad, I really like Sami but find myself FF with her and Rafe on. They are so UNBELIEVEABLE to me. Sami and EJ have the connection. I love it when they are together. I’m glad to hear some of the older ones are coming back but can’t help wondering why Days can afford them but couldn’t afford John and Marlena. I miss them so! I even still miss Missy and Jack. Hope that Bo and and Hope get more and more air time. I still love them. And I do wish the women were more modest. I hate all the boobs showing. Even Sami can’t seem to keep hers covered up. I keep loosing respect for her character. . . put clothes on her and give her EJ – that should help. Let true love win.
Comment by Patsy Ann — August 4, 2009 #
Ashley, I agree with you, I was also happy about not seeing much of Stephanie this past week… I thought that the writers were bringing her character around but after how she acted with Nathan and Melanie I remembered why I had always hated Stephanie’s character so much and I am right back to feeling that way now, if one of the roles needed to be cut because of the “budget” it should of been Stephanie’s(NOT JOHN/MARLENA),Stephanie’s character brings nothing to the viewers but a headache……..I would love to see Owen return to Days, that is one fine looking man….lol he is also the only male actor that I saw paired with Stephanie that didn’t annoy me to death, I actually thought that the two of them had a nice natural chemistry together…Angel, as an Ejami fan myself I would love to think that the writers would be able to save this show and turn the sl around by bringing EJ and Sami back together somehow… I just don’t know if the current staff even cares enough about the viewers to try and pull it off… I know alot of viewers that have tuned out because they have lost interest in Days and no longer care what happens,( myself included sometimes) they were completely bored with the turn that Days has taken, I am trying to hold out for better days(no pun intended)but it really is hard sometimes….. Who knows maybe Vivian will be able to spin some kind of plot into action in order to vex Stefano by reuniting EJ and Sami once and for all….lol

Wow. Daniel is doing a great job. He has become very likable and intense! He does seem sure of himself about Chloe waking up and wanting him, tho, so now I believe the rumor that she will have lost some of her recent memories and Dan will have to let go …
Rafe needs to be given a job in law enforcement. He is starting to get creepy. I liked SAFE but not anymore. EJAMI? Naaa, Sami and DiMeras will not work. She will be scared of Stefano blah blah blah. Sami and Lucas together again would actually be refreshing at this point!

we spoke to soon Lynn steph had to show up today! But yeah the thing with her and nathan bothers me, I for once empathise with Melanie whom I used to hate more than stephanie. Weird. I also hated how today stephanie helped nathan out, its like ugh be more obvious.
And I’m sooo glad lucas is on to Kate! I hope t ogod he doesnt come back and say “Oh mom I’m sorry you’re right you love chloe!” bc who knows. I want her to go to jail so bad and for dr.dan to get out, its bugging me worse than the baby switch.
Which hello where is mia?
AND whoa about arianna, I am confused, is she dealing? I feel lost.

Comment by ashley — August 4, 2009 #
Well I guess this is Rafe’s big stupid secret….the family business is a drug cartel and Ari is the Queen pin…lol…… what a let down… next thing you know the writers will put Victor back in business as Ari’s secret contact in Salem, can anyone say Savannah Wilder…..????Actually I might have found that more interesting than the way the sl’s are currently being written for Victor/Rafe/Ari come to think of it…If the writers try to make Ari into an undercover agent in 6 months that licks her fingers to test cocaine(they will say it was sugar or some such b.s.) I will be done with this show….There is no way after what was shown today that the writers can believably make Ari’s character anything less than another stereotype that Days seems so fond of portraying….. what a shame, I was ALMOST interested in what she was up to….. Is it just me or should Melanie smack the crap out of both Stephanie and Nathan???? I think it was quite tacky of Stephanie to go out on a fake non date with someone that she thinks that her fake friend Melanie(who Stephanie blubbered all over a few weeks ago as caring about)likes, the whole situation made Nathan look like a junior schmuck in training…..how does Nathan invite out the girl(Stephanie) who talked crap/mislead him about the girl that he is supposed to be interested in(Melanie) because said girl is not available?????I’m sure any girl would be okay with a guy that she likes going out with her rival/fake friend without her when she wanted to go herself…….. forget about smacking Stephanie /Nathan can someone PLEASE smack these writers……. WHY OH WHY CAN THE WRITERS NOT MAKE AT LEAST ONE NEW CHARACTER LIKEABLE?????????HOW HARD IS IT?????

Comment by Beverly — August 6, 2009 #
Even the older characters are annoying me, I was a huge Sami fan until the writers decided to mess with Sami’s character, I don’t know about any one else but the one trait that I used to love in Sami was that she DID NOT have the Brady smug,I am better than thou, self righteous gene and lately Sami’s lines with EJ have made her so annoying and down right nauseating to watch….c’mon Sami where did you go???? who are you to throw stones at ANYONE in Salem????I was/am a huge Ejami fan but this current Sami makes me want to watch her fall right on her face and come up with a bloody nose and after that I will be happy to watch her be reunited with EJ….. I never thought it would be possible for any sl on days to make me dislike Sami’s character, after all the years and crap that Sami has pulled I continued to root for her character…. not this time though, cudos writers you have accomplished the impossible… a boring, repulsive, dry, self righteous, lame, foolish,too trusting,self absorbed,neglectful mother, not very clever, hard to enjoy watching Sami Brady ….. and this is coming from a die hard Sami fan….How could Sami not have any compassion for EJ wanting to have at least a some small part (in what they both believe to be their daughter’s grave) How can Sami resent/ want to deny EJ (again)in being able to say .. Yes, this WAS my daughter, I DO love you even though I was never given the chance to know you…??? Sami can be mad at the Dimera’s all she wants to, but her daughter IS a Dimera and EJ has always been a good father, didn’t the two of them call a truce for the sake of their children after EJ returned Johnny to Sami???? So why does Sami still think that it is okay to call EJ names, put him down, taunt EJ about his family because EJ is looking for the same type of closure in what he believes is his daughter’s death that Sami herself should be searching for…??? but isn’t/hasn’t been because she is inserted so far up in Rafe’s behind that I am surprised that she remember who Grace even WAS… If Sami is mad because EJ didn’t consult her about the tombstone than maybe she should have consulted EJ about the fact that Rafe(stranger with shady past that Sami knew for 2 seconds) was adopting EJ’s daughter…. I think Sami needs to learn one last final lesson before(if) the writers put EJ and Sami back into a relationship…Sami : share yourself and your children your life the next time around with someone THAT YOU KNOW really does love you.. open up about your feelings, history to someone that you don’t have to chase out the door every five minutes in order for him to be with you and your children, someone who’s history (good or bad) that YOU KNOW and why don’t you try doing all of this BEFORE YOU allow him to move in with you, your children, and adopt one of them….. to practical?? EJ was not someone Sami had to convince/change to be with and I personally am bored to death with this new and supposedly improved Sami… this time around I think Sami needs to grovel and chase EJ, I wouldn’t want to see them back together any other way…..just my opinion.
Comment by Lynn — August 6, 2009 #
I don’t think that Ari is a drug dealer, but maybe an undercover agent for drug enforcement. That may have something to do with Rafe’s secret.
SAFE’s break up is only TEMPORARY. That has been a spoiler on several sites. They will be back together in a few weeks. I am glad to see that they are finally giving Rafe a back story. I think we will all be surprised as to what it all actually involves. Remember, Sr. Agnes said that he was a good man with a good heart who deserved to be loved for the man he is. So, there is nothing evil about him, but something that he feels guilty for, more than the accident and something that he wants to protect Sami from.
You are right, Anna. Chloe is supposed to stay in a coma until the 1st of September. I don’t understand how they can even discuss life support — she is breathing on her own and isn’t receiving support, only monitoring. I don’t think pulling the plug would even be an option at this point.
Lynn– I don’t think the writers ever said that Ari and Rafe hadn’t seen each other in years. They said they had a falling out, but no time period, to my knowledge, was ever mentioned. I think we are assuming that it has been since Emily died that they haven’t seen each other, but I could be wrong on that one. But the fact that Ari visited Emily’s grave and brought flowers and has brought her up several times, makes me know that she must have been involved somehow in this accident. It has been reported that what part of this secret is that Rafe is protecting Ari from something that could have endangered his career with the FBI.

I do not, repeat do not like Brady with Ari. She is nothing but trouble. Nicole belongs with Brady and Sami belongs with EJ. Let the story about the baby switch end soon. Sami & EJ deserve to know the truth about their little Sydney soon, then Nicole can go cry on Brady’s shoulder since he knows she lost her baby anyway.
BRING BACK MARLENA & JOHN. I love Days, have been watching for quite a few years.
Comment by Helen — August 7, 2009 #
Keep saying that Gail about the break up maybe it will make you feel better it did me when they ripped Ejami apart I even held out hope for a full year, then they brought in this boring over grown ape that can’t talk or act or show any real emotion and paired him with Sami. Hopefully the writers have realized what a mistake that was and keeps this split for ever. they are as exciting as watching paint dry and the only reason Rafe is so popular is because some women like looking at him they know he can’t act but who care he is eye candy. I personally can’t stand looking at him he gives me the creeps. LYNN BRAVO you said exactly what I feel about Sami. I use to love her too now I can barely stand to see her on the show. She is so self righteous I can’t believe these writers actually had her have a straight face when she talks. She can not even understand what she did to EJ that makes her look like a total heartless bitch, who could ever feel sorry for her. or they are trying to make her look totally retarded. either way I hate her now. I hope EJ keeps Sydney away from her for a long time would serve her right she denied EJ of who he thought was his daughter and if by some stupid choice of the writers do have that boring creepy Rafe and Sami get back together EJ should never let Sami have her Rafe might want to adopt her too. That is what is so creepy about Rafe why did he want to adopt a child he knew had a living father and not want to marry the mother? that whole thing was written to hurt EJ but we aren’t suppose to feel bad for him just the witch well i don’t feel sorry for her at all I hope EJ pays her back good before they get back together. I HATE RAFE sorry just had to say it lol. As for Steph well you can tell she has Brady blood in her. self centered selfish and it’s all about her and what she want’s. She can step all over her friends take their men sleep with them but her friends better not go with her EX’s or she goes off on them. Steph is a witch to and she is totally out of place on the soap now she need to go with her parents we need another self centered tramp on this show like we need another idiot Rafe. This thing with Chloe is dragging on to long Kate needs to pay, someone on this show needs to pay for their crimes Jeesh If Salem was in Texas Kate would have had the golden needle by now. come on get her already. All you EJami Fans its important we let the writers know how much we don’t like SAFE Safe fan’s are stuffing all the polls so they are making it look like Safe has a huge fan base when actually EJami has a larger following. Safe Fan’s think they own all the blogs they are rude and that is because they know Safe is truly boring and have no chemistry but they feel if he is with Sami they won’t get rid of him and they like looking at him. They mute his monotone voice and just look at him. Today again Sami showed all she cares about is sex with that trailer trash she didn’t give Grace a thought till that back stabber Nicole showed up. When EJ finds out every thing Nicole has done she will be lucky if he lets her live. The scene between Rafe and Sami before Nicole showed up was so sickening to watch it was so stupid and fake, I think Ali’s acting is getting worse the more she is with Rafe she should demand he not be paired with her
Comment by Angel — August 7, 2009 #
This latest Sami and Rafe breakup signals the begining of the end because these two obviously have problems. He has secrets, she wants answers. They are becoming as stormy as EJ and Sami. I think Sami and Nicole are twits and get WAY too much airtime. Neither has a job or any ambition and they are both too unstable to be trusted as reliable parents. As for Chloe, well, if she were not receiving any water, etc, and they did not monitor her, she would die, but I heard she will not, which is good … Gawd I love Dan, he has become so heroic! And EJ is good on his arrogant days. Would love to see him with someone NEW, not either annoying bimbo! Sami and Nicole are killing the show!
Comment by ANNA — August 7, 2009 #
I agree with you Lynn. I think Sami should chase EJ. I’ve always love Sami. That’w what has kept me watching for years. Lately I haven’t cared for her character much.
Comment by Jill — August 7, 2009 #
Daniel is the best! He is sexy and heroic and I love he and Chole together! I love EJ too. I think he and Sami are good together. She’s no saint and neither is he.

…….i am leaving this post for the owner’s and writer’s of this site….your blooper’s and spoiler’s section is ……AWESOMELY FUNNY…thank you for making me laugh today….i always read them, but i can never figure out where to comment on them….they are usually very funny…..you guys have a wickedly evil sense of humor….don’t ever lose it….more tounge in cheek comments about stefeno and victor would be graciously welcomed…they are my favorites…have a good week-end….bye bye

“i don’t feel sorry for her at all I hope EJ pays her back good before they get back together.”
Sorry Angel, that above statement sounds pretty messed up imo of course. What super couple would want to seek revenge from the person who he/she supposedly LOVES?! I guess passion and revenge means the same thing to certain people.

I have been thinking and …Sami and Rafe have been at it like rabbits and the writers have written their busy sex life into almost every scene. Oh no! Please tell me they will not make her PREGNANT by daddy number three!
Comment by ANNA — August 8, 2009 #
Indigonights– ITA with you!!! I laughed over those bloopers and spoilers today.
Anna– I doubt that Sami and Rafe will have a child. I read that Sami was not supposed to have anymore kids after the twins, but then Ali got pregnant in real life and they wrote that into the s/l. I think four is plenty for her.
Comment by Gail — August 8, 2009 #
arianne zucker goes on maternity leave… Ejami time!! Ej is supposed to find out around the time she should have her baby! Yeah!!!! =P
Comment by Sami — August 8, 2009 #
Since they tape shows a month or more in advance, I hope to see some sort of conclusion by the end of Oct so that the Nov ratings will reflect a better situation…We can only hope. In some reports, AZ is going out in Dec but for only a few weeks. YUCK…hoped Stefeno would ship her “To the Tony island never to be heard of again”
Comment by Deborah — August 9, 2009 #
Just a random thought….. Maybe Sami will have to apologize later on to EJ for being soooo upset with the headstone reading Grace Dimera if it is revealed that Grace really WAS a Dimera after all,I really think that Mia should turn out to be Stefano’s granddaughter….Maybe the writers are just setting it up in advance to avoid having to make the change to the grave later on down the line once this baby switch sl from hell has finally concluded….Then I can laugh at Sami for being such an ass over what name was placed on the tombstone when it is revealed how much she had loved ANOTHER Dimera….. maybe then Sami will see that she only THINKS that she Knows all that there is to know about anyone who has Dimera blood….. doesn’t Sami adore Mia as well right now???…. maybe then Sami can stop running around being such as self righteous, foolish ass…I’M with the people/person who writes the Days bloopers too…. Nicole, Nicole Walker, baby thief,Sami’s worst enemy ever is a shiny new trustworthy friend to Sami, yet EJ was not to be trusted???? I don’t think that Ari is the only one currently high on dope in Salem…..lol
Comment by Lynn — August 9, 2009 #
Haha, yeah the logic bloopers page was funny. I noticed the lame TV Guide soaps guy Nelson Branco tries to imitate this site sometimes, but he just doesn’t cut it. Dayscafe wins handsdown in the humor department.
I hope Emily is alive. Sami and Rafe were cute for a while but now they are sinking …
Comment by happyme — August 9, 2009 #
Let’s all pray Stefeno does get rid of Dr Baker…Remember, he gave a letter describing all that Nicole did regarding the baby switch and buying Mia’s baby to replace the baby she lost. He gave to his lawyer to be opened upon his death…Nobody knows about this letter…FUN TO BE HAD…
Comment by Deborah — August 9, 2009 #
ohhhhhh my gosh………elvis demands a DNA test.!!!!!…..in two weeks…the summer of fun just got started with this awesome announcement..lol…of course summer’s almost over now, but oh well..now the question is which baby is he testing…sydney or an exzumed grace…this should be brutal, how does this come about.? suddenly i’m looking foreward to days again…….. i can tell by this teaser that the new/old writer is having a say in whats added to the scripts………..yeah…….

Haven,t you guys given up yet ?Iread the spoilers and its still the NICOLE SHOW .Sami and EJ WILL NEVER BE TOGERHER .Ilove Rafe and Sami BUT EJand Sami had that special spark that made them stand out from the others .I see we are going to get EJamiso I,ll just read the spoliers.

OMG!!! Do we have any PASSIONS fans out there? Lindsey Hartley is going to be Arianna on Days!! I LOVE her and Eric together! It’s a match made in heaven!! I can’t wait for her to take over and give Arianna a mega boost!
Comment by Diane — August 10, 2009 #
I think that I am starting to sound like a broken record when it comes to this new and improved Sami character that I have had the misfortune of seeing appear on my television screen,but I just can’t resist pointing out that in Sami’s conversation today with her new bff Nicole that Sami putting down Nicole in a nice way for her choice in loving EJ after Sami smugly declared that her holy self just had to draw the line in the sand somewhere(i.e.murder)made me want to give all of the current writing staff a mandate to be tested in the near future for dementia……correct me if I am wrong but didn’t Sami still love and want to be with Lucas affter he attempted to MURDER…?? Didn’t Sami still fall in love with EJ AFTER EJ shot and tried to MURDER John(her step father who raised her for the majority of her early life while Roman and Marlena were being held captive on Stefano’s island)…??? these are just the current event examples that I am giving….so yeah, uh huh, I totally buy that Sami cares so much more about Phillip’s life than John’s(no matter how stormy Sami/ John,s relationship could be deep down Sami did care for John)I completely believe that Sami has the kind of morals that would allow her to become involved in a relationship/love ANYONE who could be capable of such a thing *gasp* as murder….NOT Give me a freaking break and here we go again in having to hear Sami state that this is her reason for hiding Grace from EJ mantra …….Please, Please,PRETTY Please try to remember that the viewers actually do watch this show and pay attention to the details in a sl because we get invested in the characters and their lives… this is what makes a viewer continue to tune in…. imo, watching Days now is like entering onto a psyche ward and being held captive there….
Comment by Lynn — August 11, 2009 #
Have the new DA murdered Victor. What a new twist that would be to the story line. Just hurry and free Daniel and put Kate in prison where she belongs. Let Daniel save Chole and let them be a super couple for a change. I think they would be great just no sex please. We all know what goes on behind closed doors we just don’t need to see it all the time. Sometimes it is just sickening.
Comment by Helen — August 11, 2009 #
Nicole knows about the letter that Baker gave his lawyer. He told her about it. But knowing the writers they will make her magically forget about it.
Comment by April — August 11, 2009 #
sami’s heart to heart with nicole was very tounge in cheek, for one reason………sami stating that everything bad happening in her life is because of “KARMA”…to funny….the writer’s are obviously being informed as to what we’re saying about thier crap-ola writing all fall / winter / spring and yes…summer too…now we’re back to fall again, good gawd !!!!!!! can you believe it’s been a year…….if i liked guns, i’de shoot myself…..
oring arsed safe for a solid freaking year……my brain feels numb from to much monotoned line deliveries from rafe….mia sells her baby for cold hard cash, but writer’s seem to think she’s little miss innocent..gag me with a spoon..william’s hair needs it’s own zip code…chad’s hair shows he’s into playing with pennies and light-sockets…nicole drinks herself stupid, then steals a baby, and the writer’s want us to pity her as a victim…….[?]..did i mention my brain hurts…lol……..i’ll be glad when this summer of fun is over…i need a vacation of cold harsh reality… [ smirk ]
one more rant, then i’m through for today…….if “days” goes and shows mia and will having sex, i hope someone who knows how..will file charges with the F.C.C over showing inappropiate behaviour of a sexual nature between teenagers on day time television..we do not need to ever romanticize teen sex….it is a wrong image for “days of our lives” to promote…..imo……..nail thier butts to the wall over it….so they won’t do it again…adults yes, teens no.. we need to draw a line in the sand, and defend it……….thats it..i’m done…..lol
Comment by indigo nights — August 11, 2009 #
Just read the spoilers for next week that say EJ requests a genetics test. What I wouldn’t pay for him to find out that Johnny isnt really his son. But I’m sure this is just a let down waiting to happen.
Comment by Beverly — August 11, 2009 #
Indigo Nights…… AMEN! I completely agree with your whole post…..it has been quite a bit like groundhog’s day hasn’t it……?!? I watch another soap and on that show I have watched numerous sl’s begin and conclude in the last year while Days sl’s have stayed stagnant….The only problem for me is that I do not have the same history with Y&R as I do with Days, I only recently started to watch the other show….(when Days kept up the baby switch/safe*yawn* sl’s , I started looking around for a replacement) I dvr everything due to a busy schedule and more and more I have found myself fast forwarding through most of the show or only watching Y&R if I do not have the time to watch both shows…. I can come back to Days in 2 weeks time and know that I will not have missed anything at all, so I don’t worry much about seeing the show everyday… I can just read a spoiler, how sad that Days is no longer must see t.v. for me….. I am trying to hold out for the return of Carly, Lawrence and Vivian but if the writers miss the boat with their sl’s like they did with Anna/Tony and Steve/Kayla I may just have to get over no longer being a fan/viewer of my once favorite show….. On another note, who else enjoyed the hell out of Lucas giving Rafe the cold shoulder today…..lol it is about time Lucas got his b@$$s back, YAY Lucas……good job, SOMEONE needs to try and put the kids first, since the real Sami is M.I.A, I am soooo glad that it was Lucas who gave Rafe a reality check on just who the residents of Salem REALLY are……more please,lol
Comment by Lynn — August 12, 2009 #
I am now wondering if that genetic testing will be for Johnny, who keeps having a cough and will need to go to the doctor. Who knows. Maybe he will need his tonsils removed and lose blood during surgery, and it will be discovered that EJ’s does not match so he will demand full DNA tests once the boy is better. If they go that route, then Johnny will be Lucas’ son and the show is planning to get LUMI back together! But if the testing is for Grace, Nicole will do something crazy to stop it, like have one of Stefano’s henchmen steal the body lol!
Comment by ANNA — August 12, 2009 #
if ej exzumes grace’s body for DNA test, then that will prove that ej isn’t her father..he will think sami lied about being pregnant with his baby….however if it also shows sami is not the mother, then sami and lucas and rafe will know that sami’s baby is missing…the search for dr,baker starts..nicole and stefeno trying to stay one step ahead of everyone else..brady’s dumb butt needs to put the pieces of this jigzaw puzzle together…pronto..
Comment by indigo nights — August 12, 2009 #
I agree with you indigo nights. If EJ does exhumes Grace’s body for DNA testing, I believe he’ll confront Samantha and accuse her of lying to him about him being Grace’s father. Of course, Sami will freak out because she knows he is the only one she was with at that time. So they will both have their DNA test done to see whether or not it matches Grace’s. Plus I’m wondering if the baby switcheroo will slowly unfold piece by piece instead of everything coming out at once. I think everyone finding out Grace was Mia’s baby will be revealed much later. This way it buys more time for Nicole and Stephano and especially the WRITERS! LOL
Comment by lisa — August 12, 2009 #
I get sick everytime I look at Kate. She pulled herself away from Justin when he started to hug her. He should have started supecting something about her then. She is so evil.
Comment by Helen — August 12, 2009 #
Don’t forget Justin was never a straighforward character. He is part of the Kiriakis cartel and the slick head of their legal department. Of course he is not going to be up front with anyone but Victor, and he did ask him what the hell was going on once they had their privacy. When he saw Kate’s reaction, I did notice his eyes get dark for a second, but he played it cool. Caveman Rafe he ain’t! (though I must admit Rafe is pretty good at snooping around in his base, confrontational kinda way) Different styles. I would really like to see Justin and EJ do courtroom battle at some point. Maybe when EJ has become more than Nicole’s yes boy …? Still waiting on that promotion!
I too feel the babyswitch will come out little by little. At least we are slowly getting started. Now, back in the day when Eileen Davidson played evil Kristen who also had a bogus pregnancy and duped John, that too dragged on for ages, but she pulled it off. The problem here has been Nicole. She is pretty and can be fun, but she is too whiney and not powerful enough to have been given such a huge storyline. Her lack of power and depth are what have diminished EJ as well, because if she is a shallow whiney self-absorbed girl, then he becomes something of a twit for being duped by her. See what I mean? Nicole’s character dropped the ball. Good actors do not say their lines the same way every day!
Comment by happyme — August 13, 2009 #
aS OF TODAY i NO LONGER want EJ and SAMI TOGETHER.Hes a slime ball that doesn,t know his a– from a hole in the grown .Atleast when Rafe ifthinks something isn,t quite right he checks into it .Not EJ he runs home to Father and Nicole and they tell him how great he is .Sami needs a real man that takes up for her Rafe is that man.So LET EJand Nicole stay together
after today ejami fan can,t you see you are not going to get EJami .tjhe show is all about Ari/ Nicole she gets all the best lines ,all the sexy cloths they have to make ALI/Sami look drab so Nicole will look goodThey have too make Sami seem uncareing for her kids so every one will want herwto look bad soevery one will want EJ /NICOLE TOGETHERe ALLi can say is go SAFE you ,re a more loveing couplethan ej/nicole
Comment by patsy — August 13, 2009 #
If Doctor Baker is going to be the catalyst for the baby switch being exposed I am all for it…. I just hope that it will NOT be written in a way that brings about the death of Doctor Baker’s character… I have truly enjoyed the humor that this character brings to the show, it would be very disappointing to have another likable character written off of Days…. I hope that Doctor Baker becomes a permanent part of Salem’s cast…. I can think of many things that a writer could do with this type of character,…. don’t forget that Vivian is set to come back to Salem soon, if we can’t have Ivan return with Vivian as her sidekick then I think Vivian should be given a sl with Doctor Baker….. Doctor Baker can either be Vivian’s new Mr. Woo( medical co-conspirator) or a love interest for Vivian…. the idea of the two of them interacting together would be enjoyable must see t.v….lol both characters are over the top outrageous and funny as hell…. I really think that these two actors would be hilarious together,they could stir up great mischief in Salem if given a chance…. I hope that the writers have at least considered this idea…. Vivian and Doctor Baker in a sl would be great even if Ivan does return with Vivian so I hope the writers have found another less obvious way to expose Nicole other than Stefano having Baker killed and the letter being sent off…. Nicole did not tell Stefano about the letter that Baker wrote today, only about Baker wanting money…. I hope I am wrong… it would be not only a missed opportunity with a great character like Baker if the sl for him were to conclude in this way but a completely uninteresting way to have this sl from hell begin to end…. I don’t want Rafe to be the fake super sleuth either…. the sl has been about Sami, EJ and Nicole…..not Rafe, he has no place in their history.. allow ONE OF THEM to be the one to either come clean(Nicole)or come out of the mind altering fog that they have been in and actually figure it out(Sami/EJ) Rafe is a new character, why give him all the glory…..???? bring back John/Doc and after 5 minutes in Salem, those two would help Sami/EJ figure out what is really going on…. since I know the show is too stupid to let that happen they can at least let it stem from Will/ Mia, hell at this point I will even accept Chad being the one to figure it out….you know any one of the characters that this switch actually effects would be great…..ANYTHING to give Rafe less air time on my t.v…..I want to see a sl that actually deals with the real dynamics in Salem instead of the fake/forced/boring new history that is given for these characters, this all began with Nicole/Sami long before either Rafe or EJ stepped a foot in Salem so it would be great to see Sami and Nicole once and for all confront/deal with their jealousy/competition of each other all ON THEIR OWN……NOT RAFE!!!! EJ has been caught in the middle of these two ladies(I use the term loosely here)and this baby switch sl has been much more about him/ Sami/ Nicole and the God awful triangle that was created for the(AND US FANS SUFFERED THROUGH)three of them….this was also BEFORE RAFE came to Salem…… WHY DOES IT NEED TO BE THIS CHARACTER(RAFE) WHO IS BEING WRITTEN AS BEING THE ONLY SMART ONE IN SALEM WHEN ALL OF THE THEM(SAMI,EJ, NICOLE)WERE PLENTY CLEVER IN THEIR OWN RIGHT….. WELL BEFORE MR. FAKE FBI CAME TO TOWN???? shouldn’t one of these characters be given the same opportunity to shine as the new addition to Days is being given???RAFE IS NOOOOOOOO JOHN BLACK,
Comment by Lynn — August 14, 2009 #
I love the fact the we get to see Sami interacting with her family today. Even if it is with Stephanie. We rarely get to see that side of her now, if only they were out of the stupid apartment! I could only hope that Maggie decides to push Sami and Lucas back together with all of this. I would like Rafe to become the best friend that Sami has never had and Lucas to come back as her true love.
Comment by Beverly — August 14, 2009 #
I would have rather had Sami interact/speak to Roman(her m.i.a father) than Stephanie about what is going on in her love life, the scene with Sami and Stephanie seemed forced to me, there is no real bond between the two and a double dose of self righteous Brady girls is truly not my cup of tea….. there conversation sounded like this to me….”Stephanie, you are just TOO superior to ever lower yourself by being with a Kiriakas,why look at me, I am just as superior as you and would NEVER have dirtied my clean, pure lily white hands by admitting to love a Dimera, aren’t we just great??OF COUSRE we are!” ….. hand me a bucket to throw up in already….. I wish Melanie would have pushed Stephanie right into Nathan today and the pair of creeps should have fallen to the floor allowing Melanie to literally walk right over top of them on her way out the door….. Melanie DID catch the two flirting, plain and simple. Melanie’s take on what happened between Nathan and Stephanie while she was in the bathroom was exactly right, I guess Stephanie forgot her conversation with Sami about what a good girl she is as soon as Stephanie seen Nathan she acted like a b@#ch in heat, it is that Brady selective memory in action once again ….lol no matter how the writers try to spin it to make Stephanie the victim whenever Stephanie finds out that Melanie slept with Phillip, I won’t feel one bit sorry for her……. paybacks are a b@$ch and I am glad that Stephanie is soon to be given a nasty dose of her own medicine.I hope that Melanie and Phillip will be written into a couple in the end, I like the two of them together.
Comment by Lynn — August 15, 2009 #
Lucas & Sami together..NO WAY. EJ & SAMI should be together soon. PLEASE EXPOSE ARI. I do not want Ari with Brady. He is such a good actor and so good-looking to get messed uo with her kind. Is she a drug dealer? It sure looks like it.
That story line about Ciara being kidnapped is so stupid. There is enough going on….
Comment by Helen — August 15, 2009 #
The Ciara kidnapping story sounds like it will be over soon. It was just about the money and is a way to introduce us to the crooked cop in the department. But the kidnapping victim should not have been Ciara. They could have had Hope kidnaped and blindfolded the whole time etc. The child was not the way to go. Peter Reckell (Bo) is doing a fantastic acting job with this. I hope he gets an Emmy win one of these days!
Arianna will not be a drug dealer, she is undercover! Her character will improve when we see Hartley’s performance.
Comment by Happyme — August 15, 2009 #
I was really pissed today with the whole Stephanie/Mel/Nathan story line. I feel like they are playing Stephanie to be a young Kate. She is spinning her webs and catching stupid men in them. Why are Salem’s men so stupid???? Most men can figure out when they are being played in real life. Why can’t the writers be smart about the ones in TV? I am also not happy they are going to put Mel with confused Philip. He’s trying for independence and I would really like to see him succeed, and to have his own way. I truly want to see him become the character I know he can be. Brady gets to be self-righteous and clean. Why is Philip not afforded the same thing? He’s heroic, gorgeous, has a conscience and doesn’t do drugs. He’s been stronger than Brady in almost every way, yet Brady gets to be the golden haired boy. It grates on my nerves! I have nothing against Eric, but I think that the show is more stable on Philip and his future as he is Victor’s son.
Comment by Pat — August 15, 2009 #
I like Philip. At least he is getting airtime. I find him a lot of fun with Melanie and would like to see them together, sleuthing around. Steph and Nathan can go off and be patronizing, self-absorbed hypocrites together. A match made in heaven!
Comment by ANNA — August 15, 2009 #
Are you kidding me ? Lucas whiney would like to see him turn back into an alcoholic. Or thrown back into jail. Oh yeah & he reminds me of a little turtle.
Sami & Ej i would absolutly love to see them together But not with the Ej that the character has become he & Nicole deserve each other. Ej is turning into Stefano pure calculating evil oh & talk about being obsessed he needs medication just like his father Stefano. I cant wait to see what he does to Nicole when he finds out the truth about what Nicole did to him & how his father and her calculated to keep it from him. Now thats going to be good. I hope the writers are up for it. Rafe is perfect with Sami he is so good for her. He needs to get over himself and tell Sami the truth even if it hurts his sister… so what. I cant stand her anyway she is a trouble making little b!??? whats her problem anyway come on Brady is awesome is she stupid. i would like to see Carolyn and Victor together & Kate & Stefano. Bo’s visions are getting on my nerves as is Hope’s acting. Come on she couldnt even muster up a tear for her missing daughter.

Ok, I have a dumb question-what is keeping Chloe alive? There is no tube feeding to keep her nourished! She would have starved to death by now! Get real. I want to see E.J. get the genetics test done but his old man will alter them. Since he’s on Nicole’s side, it will take forever for the truth to come out. I want EJAMI!!!!!
Comment by Janice — August 17, 2009 #
Did anyone else catch Nathan’s slip up today? He said that Melanie was wrong in assuming that he had asked Stephanie out on a date while out with Melanie….. call me crazy but isn’t that exactly what Nathan did??? Nathan and Stephanie were speaking about how much fun that they had with each other and how they should hang out again soon, isn’t that asking someone out while your current date is in the bathroom????it doesn’t matter if Nathan hadn’t asked Stephanie for a date specifically, Nathan ’s intentions were for him to spend time with Stephanie behind Melanie’s back while downgrading Melanie into a position of no importance to Stephanie again, behind Melanie’s back…. I hope they never put Melanie and Nathan together as a couple, Nathan came across as a world class jerkface today… also not happy that all of Mel’s potential suitors seem to have the hots for slutty Stephanie, I think that tptb should have let Melanie be number one to at least one of the guys that she may soon be paired with romantically….. it sucks that the girl with the hard life, who has tried to turn it around without always boo hooing abut it is being treated so shabbily by the men in Salem while Ms. whine about everything and anything including a broken fingernail is the sought after one….gag… I thought men were supposed to like strong women….. you would never know that by watching this show….. what gives?? have we entered a time warp to the fifties and someone forgot to tell me…???
Comment by Lynn — August 18, 2009 #
Yep. All the bedhopping you want, attached, too. I hate it. I hate what they’ve done to Stephanie, Melanie, Philip, and even Nathan. They had a chance to take the higher road here and they didn’t. I MOST especially hate what they’ve done to both Philip and Melanie. Both characters are trying so hard to do what is right and they both keep getting kicked in the stomach by people who ought to care about them, but don’t. I also don’t get the Victor thing. He doesn’t expect Brady to do dirty work, only Philip. He calls Brady the golden child, but Philip, who has done things he didn’t want to do, the ingrate and lack wit. Yet, Brady stole Chloe from Philip, was a terrible husband to her, did drugs, got into rehab thanks to Victor and didn’t lift a finger to help Chloe when Victor tried to frame her in Brady’s disappearance. Yep, upstanding guy, that’s Brady…
And don’t get me started on Stephanie of late! She has developed a real snotty personality of late. She is missing Philip when it is convenient to do so, never ceases to rub his nose in it and sends double messages to him. Yep, I love you, but stay away… Very confusing to a young man like Philip. He’s still very much in Marine Mode – today he saw the cotton candy feeding and knew instantly that Stephanie and Nathan were headed into bed in the near future. (Tie signs) Philip instantly made the connection, attacked the “dangerous opponent” and “neutralized him physically” in true soldier manner. Of course, this side of the battlefield, the behavior isn’t considered polite, but it is instilled in soldiers to keep them safe in combat situations. It becomes second nature to them and sometimes makes it very difficult to re-integrate into society. It is also a recurrent base for PTSD in soldiers who return home without counseling. Philip needs it badly, but I keep hoping they’ll put it to good use with him as the Grey Knight. Not so far. More’s the pity. He’s a much better good guy in my opinion than Brady will ever be!
Comment by Pat — August 18, 2009 #
Thanx for the reminder, Pat. I had forgotten Philip was a Marine. He does sometimes seem to be exhibiting signs of PTSD.
In gossip news, I wonder who the character of Omar will be. Apparently he will intereact with Carly.

Hey,
I know some won’t like this, but I think Rafe is the best thing that has happened to Sami! Because of his past, doesn’t mean he has to share everything because like Sami, she forgot to tell him that EJ raped her(very important for him to know) and everyone has things they like to leave well enough alone. Rafe and Sami should be so glad to have each other to fall IN love and enjoy each other as did John and Marlena!!!
“S=Style, A=Assurance, F=FUN, E=Eternity”
Thanks,
PS…Please, someone help Kate get a life!
Comment by Donna — August 18, 2009 #
Does anyone else watch Y&R? There is a sl on there that involves a man who made the same kind of sleazy offer to a female character that EJ made to Sami (involving the rape debate)this female character also decided to take the man up on his offer of having sex in exchange for “saving” her boyfriend….. and the worst thing that the situation is being called on that soap is blackmail…… which is pretty much exactly what it was for EJ and Sami too. I guess you can tell where the intelligent writers who know a little about law and crimes work….. hint, it isn’t Days. S=snoozefest A=annoying F=failing E= error. E=enjoyable J=justified A= amazing M=more I=impetus….. Days please correct this error called safe immediately. I don’t think that Rafe has to tell Sami everything…. I think Rafe should continue to run away, far away permanently that is a much better idea than being honest in my opinion…. watching Rafe pout around Salem intent on his self blown importantless mission of “PROTECTING” Sami is grating on my nerves…..just another excuse from the weak one in order to avoid having to actually do what is right…. hmmm, rafe cares so much about Sami’s safety that he won’t tell Sami something that could potentially end her life just like it did Emily’s….. yet Rafe feels the need to stay in Salem to protect Sami from Nicole and EJ who Sami has chewed up and spit out on more than one occasion all on her dainty own….. romantic would be telling the one you profess to love what your life was like before they entered into it…… I will say it again, Rafe is no John Black and Sami as a young Marlena wanna be is boring the pants off of me…..why…????? because continuing to try and copycat couples who can not be duplicated(EJ/Sami, John/Marlena) when you could easily still have the original model is annoying and not enjoyable for most viewers to have to suffer through!!!!!!!
Comment by Lynn — August 18, 2009 #
I,m with you Donna Rafe is the best person for Sami. He shows every day how much he loves her.Aleast he doesn,t hang around with the town slutand try to make Sami jelious like another slimball did.He is so sweet and gentel with Sami not bad to look at either Theyve changed EJ/James character so he,s not worth watching .
Comment by patsy — August 18, 2009 #
KAREN-OMG can I say how much I agree about Lucas, and LOL at the turtle comment, hahah I totally see it!
Also I hate stephanie and now nathan. He is ridiculous, and stupid. Stephanie is such a snobby bitch, can owen reappear and take her away?
WTF I hate Arianna, I want to know her deal. I want doctor baker back full time, and I want chloe to die and kate to go to jail forever, and never get screen time again.
I dont know what I think about ej/sami/rafe. IDK.
writers read this! and respond accordingly! haha.
Comment by Ashley — August 19, 2009 #
Actually, I was going to say that I prefer it when Galen is not with Ali. His acting is better when not with her and he is more believable. I actually liked his scene with Molly and the sneaky way he got back in to do what he needed to do to get the goods on Doc Baker. He is a much more interesting character when he is doing the FBI thing and not the boytoy with little to do….
Comment by Pat — August 19, 2009 #
I hate what they are doing to Mel and Philip. Stephanie has a huge sanctimonious streak in her, so the current line is within her range, even if I don’t like it. I’m not liking much these days. I don’t like SAFE, I don’t like Ejole, and I don’t like Brianna, either. Melip would be interesting if they did it right, and so far, they have bungled that one, too.
Comment by Pat — August 19, 2009 #
Steph is way too obnoxious. I cannot wait for her to see the sex tape of Melanie and Philip that hotel manager supposedly made har har!

So a spoiler says Dr Baker is going to die…good grief, why do they continually kill off the good characters???
I hope it’s not true. Anyone have any thougths?
Comment by Jill — August 19, 2009 #
No one really dies in Salem LOL so he could come back later. For now, it will be a good thing because Rafe apparently finds out so Nicole will hear about it and there is that matter of the letter Baker left with his lawyer, detailing all her sordid crimes and actions!
Comment by ANNA — August 19, 2009 #
…..hey jill……i think dr,richard baker is going to fake his own death…he owes to many people with guns to much money…rafe finds him, apparently dead…what if rafe cuts a deal with baker, he’ll help him fake his death, on one condition…help him with his revenge against the di’mera’s…the herenandez twins were abandoned by someone…di’mera or kiriakis ?…
Comment by indigo nights — August 19, 2009 #
I see the writers are ruining P hillips charactor just like they did EJ never CARED THAT MUCH FOR HIM but hate to see an actor get a raw deal for the sake of a story.
Comment by patsy — August 19, 2009 #
Oh, that’s actually a good idea – faking his death. That could be interesting. Thanks!!
Comment by Jill — August 19, 2009 #
I can’t stand Steph. either. I am beginning to like Phil & Melanie together. Her character is so cute now. She is darling. I never thought I’d ever say that about her. Send Steph. to where ever her mom & dad are. We don’t need her on Days. Writers are you listening? Get rid of Kate. I’m so tired of her lying, she is crazy & needs to be put in the prison hospital. Please get the truth out and free Daniel. He is such a brillant doctor. He is needed at the hospital with all patients and Chole too. Let him bring her out of the coma. Nathan will never be a Tom Horton but Daniel could.
Comment by Helen — August 19, 2009 #
Yes, I am liking Daniel more these days and at least they gave Chloe and Daniel a well done vision scene, unlike the ones from the past with John and Marlena. Most of those were so saccharine as to be disgusting. This one was honest, direct and felt RIGHT! So, here we have supercouple flavor done by the writers. Any thoughts on that?
Comment by Pat — August 20, 2009 #
Really.. how much longer can this baby switch go on.It is now old. Sami needs to have her true child and nicole need to be sooo put in her place.
Poor Phlip and Ej and brady. They make them look so dumb.They did that to Austin too.Let the boys catch a cleu for once.
Comment by Jenni — August 20, 2009 #
YAY!!!! DOUBLE YAY!!!EJ FINALLY will know that Nicole lost their baby!!!! YAY!!!Even the prospect of Days STILL dragging the sl out by not informing EJ that Sidney really is his and Sami’s bio-child right away can’t make me too upset…. for now. I am just too excited at knowing that I am soon about to see EJ rip right into Nicole….haha, I hope the writers make that scene as intense as I know it ought to be…. EJ is going to HATE Nicole, oh thank God, maybe they will FINALLY put EJ and Sami on the road BACK TO EACH OTHER….in my opinion that is the only fair outcome after being made to suffer through this sl for the past year………. YAY!! Nicole is toast!!! YAY!!
Comment by Lynn — August 20, 2009 #
Will someone put Kate in her place. I can’t stand her. She needs a life and not her kids life. I want to see Dan and Chloe together. What is uo with Bo’s visions………..
Comment by Anita — August 20, 2009 #
Am I the only person who is absolutely upset with what they’ve done to Melanie??? I wanted to smack the writers today up one side and down the other. Philip wouldn’t do that in normal terms. He is an honorable man and they have made him into a total jerk! yes, like all men he has jerk moments, but today was a new low. I hate what the writers are doing here!
Comment by Pat — August 21, 2009 #
Those Bloopers are hysterical!!
I am sooooooooooooo glad to see this baby switch story line coming to an end. Thank goodness!
I love Daniel. He is awesome! He and Chole are great together. I can hardly wait for her to wake up.
At this point I don’t care if EJ and Sami get back together. I just don’t want to see him with Nicole. He’s smarter than that. I don’t like Sami with Rafe either. Nothing there. I think maybe Nicole and Brady or maybe even Nicole and Rafe. That could be interesting. Yes, I’d like to see the passion again between Sami and EJ, but I don’t know if that’s in the card for them. Here’s to hoping…
Comment by Jill — August 21, 2009 #
Great posts, Donna and Patsy– ITA with you both. Rafe is the BEST thing that has ever happened to Sami. He loves her and wants to protect her and her kids. Rafe acts calmly and cooly instead of ranting and raving over every situation. DAYS needs a family-oriented couple like SAFE. Hope the writers continue on with them!!!
Comment by Gail — August 22, 2009 #
Please don’t kill off Dr. Baker. He is such a good actor. He could go to Gambler’s Anom, after this storyline is over with the baby switch. He could once again turn his life around and be a good doctor at that Salem Hospital. I hate when Hope treats Bo so mean. She does it when anything goes wrong. Writers this is not natural for a wife to treat her husband this way. I can’t imagine what would happen if I treated by husband that way. SO HOPE GET WITH IT GIRL OR YOU WILL LOSE BO!!!! And you certainly don’t need Justin, he has martial problems of his own.
Comment by Helen — August 22, 2009 #
Ok this is Day’s nothing is like it is in real life.It would be nice to see what we are all waiting for.EJ to tell Nicole where to go.. Then run to Sami with the new’s there baby is alive.If the writers could move it along faster I bet the ratings would go way up!!
Comment by Jenni — August 22, 2009 #
I am really hating what they have written for Philip, Melanie and Stephanie and even Nathan. I hate what they’ve done to Mel and how they have degraded Philip to a lying jerk, afraid of the truth. He doesn’t really have a chance with Stephanie – she really doesn’t love him, only what reflects back to herself and her own overinflated opinion of who she is… I would like to see Mel paired with someone who really cherishes her. She is worth that. Nathan was a thought, but he’s now got Stephanie on the brain. I didn’t like how he just threw Mel under the bus when Stephanie came around. Philip should have honored the sacrifice Mel gave him, but he has decided to be a total jerk face! Grrrrr. I hate that the writers have botched the whole story line!
Comment by Pat — August 22, 2009 #
On the other hand, the men’s hair have improved 100%! No more greasy stuff for EJ or Philip. Much better!

Weknow EJis not going to tell Sami about Sydnet after he finds out that she is hisand Samisbaby.He,ll do it to hurt her more (the mans sick in the head)I still hope Lucas tell EJ that Sami tryed to tell him several times and he was so hungup on Nicole he couldnot see what was right in front of him.Hope Rafeand SAMI ARE BACK TOGETHER BY THEN and EJ RELIZES WHAT HE HAS LOST TO BE THE TOWNSLUT.wE KNOW WE,ER NOT GOING TO GET ejAMI ANY WAY SO THAT WOULD BE A GOOD PAYBACK
Comment by patsy — August 22, 2009 #
Have the writers forgot that Philip, the marine, lost his leg? He sure gets around good. He just ran over to answer the phone while
talking with Step. It was from Victor. He jumps around all the time.
Another thought to the writers… How about pairing off Stephanie with Nathan after all he is going to be a doctor.
Her mom is a doctor so they would have more to talk about. She doesn’t care a flip about Philip or she would never have left him.
I still think Philip & the new Melanie belong together.
Comment by Helen — August 22, 2009 #
I think from what we have heard now, Rafe will be the one to mostly uncover what is going on with the babyswitch story. It will not be totally revealed until later in the fall. Sorry, gals, we will have to suffer with this for a couple more months.
dr. Baker gets killed off this week or next.
Comment by Gail — August 23, 2009 #
it’s pretty obvious that mia will get her baby [sydney] back…ej will insist on it…you know good dang well that stefeno isn’t about to put his head in the noose with ej about the paternity of baby sydney..besides, the baby we know as sydney probably isn’t even sami’s at all..nicole thinks it is, but so what..if stefeno stole her supposed mis-carried baby, then he could steal sami’s to……….anyway, mia ends up with the baby, william notices that the eye color is off..she [mia] goes to nicole about the wrong baby switch, thats when she confesses that mia’s baby was grace..that means that sydney is sami and ej’s baby, but not really…remember ej got the DNA test…thier baby is missing..
Comment by indigo nights — August 23, 2009 #
Sorry to those who thinks Ej doesn’t tell Sami about Sydney when he finds out…Ej thinks it’s Mias baby. Ejami is coming.
Comment by dana — August 23, 2009 #
Now that Austin Peck has been fired from ATWT, I wonder if Days will invite him back. Interesting timning! Austin and Nicole had quite the chemistry way back when and never acted on it, not to mention that Lucas sure could use the support of his mature brother nowadays …
Comment by happyme — August 24, 2009 #
well wouldn’t that just take the cake..”happyme”…we are so not getting any ejami hook-up anytime soon, if austin peck -aka- austin reed comes back to salem..this is so typical of the writer’s…they refuse to give us what we want..to the extent they are willing to bring back an old lover of sami’s instead, of hooking her up with elvis..i’de like to know just what the heck is wrong with elvis ? and why the writing team seams to hate him……….although i would enjoy the heck out of austin being back…..if he comes on, you know it’s for sami, not nicole…rafe will end up with nicole…trapped on stefeno’s island together..rafe gets bonked on the head in a few weeks, also nicole -aka- ari is going on maternity leave soon…they will more than likely end up trapped together…so that stefeno can keep his part in the baby switch a secrect.. If stefeno somehow convinces ej that he needs to fight for his baby sydney, whom he now thinks is mia’s…he’ll need help winning custody..sami [?] austin could put a damper on that…with lucas and william helping him of course..hahaha

I remember when Janes and ALLYSON WERE GREAT FRIENDS .remember the food fight between Sami andChole. AFTER THE SCEAN WAS OVERAlyson went over and kiss James on the cheek?What happened to that friend ship.?does any 0ne know.?
Comment by patsy — August 24, 2009 #
Does anyone ever go to work?..or cook a meal….or change a diaper?? Let’s put a reality check in the story! Also…give Lucas a backbone.
Chloe should have a siderail on her bed (required in hospitals} or she will fall out onto the floor.
Comment by elizabeth peters — August 24, 2009 #
I wonder what will happen when Lucas temporarily falls off the wagon. No doubt he will blurt something out!
Gee, Hope is acting so hateful toward Bo, I almost want them to break up and him to go with Carly!
Dean is creepy.
Chad and Mia are adorable but wait until he finds out her secret!
I predict that Stefano will have some sort of health crises at a time when Nicole would need his help and that will be the beginning of the end.
What are all your predictions?
Patsy, there are no problems between cast members. The actors work with different people at different times. No need to start bashing people who do their job IMO
Comment by ANNA — August 24, 2009 #
I think we already have heard that EJ does not tell Sami or Nicole when he finds out about Sydney not being his and Nicole’s baby.
Rafe may go to the DR and get conked on the head, but he is not going to be off the show and running away with Nicole. She is not supposed to go on maternity leave until November. No way are they not going to have Rafe on the show for over 2 months. Anyway, when that happens, Sami goes to the DR to find him.
Comment by Gail — August 24, 2009 #
I think Nicole’s luck will run out when 1. Will puts his DNA smarts to use 2. Sami realizes Grace could not have been hers. 3. Rafe realizes Nicole never had a baby. Then they will conclude Nicole stole Sami’s baby, who is Sydney. Nicole will be unable to turn to Stefano, due to his health problems, and without someone smart to advise her, she will do something stupid. I think we could see this starting to unravel soon, because when Arianne (Nicole) goes on maternity leave, that will probably be her jail time or psychiatric assessment or hiding but by then the jig is up!
Comment by ANNA — August 24, 2009 #
Thanks, Gail. I sure hope the storyline can keep Rafe and Sami together!!! Just a thought,why doesn’t Rafe have a talk w/Roman to get approval about getting dna from Grace and comparing it with Sami and Nicole? Nicole looks like she is going into a state of depression. Also, on today’s show 8/24, to me, Stefano seems like he is getting so obsessed with Nicole. Doing all he can for her like maybe going as far as killing or something just as bad. Watch out for EJ on this situation! PS: Still pulling for Safe!!! Thanks,
Comment by Donna — August 24, 2009 #
There are some occasional bright spots in the writing. Today’s show was very well done and I do wonder if they will have Nicole and Stefano thick as thieves in the future. After all, he stated that he had unbridled disbelief at the audacity of her plan and it’s execution… It is a possibility. I also felt that the whole Maxine/Nicole interplay was fabulously done, well researched and accurate. Someone has been doing research before they wrote that scene! Yeah! Good Job! I always love Doc Baker and Nicole together. It saddens me that he will be “handled” by Stefano and company. This is going to be good, but oh, we ARE going to have to wait too long for it. Sigh.
Comment by Pat — August 25, 2009 #
Like I said ARIANNE\Nicole gets all the best lines best cloths best story line no wonder every one thinks she is such a good actress .If the writers wrote that well for everyone they just might have a good soap opera.
Comment by patsy — August 25, 2009 #
Nicole lost me a long time ago. She was fun with Pookie, but no more. They do seem to be giving her all the best of everything, you are right on that. Great clothes, cute guy, dramatic storyline. Now if Eileen Davidson (Kristin) had been given this, she could have pulled it off. Few seem to have that energy and range, unfortunately. In tomorow’s episode, I read Sami’s kids are said to be going to visit Marlena. We need John and Marlena on recurring at least, to bring it all together!
Comment by ANNA — August 26, 2009 #
The best episode was when Austin found out about Will and went off on Sami.Now I want to be glued to watching Nicole get the boot and everyone to know what she did.It would be nice to see Kate get caught too she just makes me sick I’ve been forwarding her lately so I don’t have to watch.I just love Sammi. She’s a selfish bitch but it ok cause it’s Sammi.

Comment by Jill — August 26, 2009 #
My predictions: Rafe only THINKS Dr. Baker is dead… after stumbling over DR. bakers body and being knocked out upon the discovery, Rafe will awaken to find that Dr. Baker’s body is m.i.a…. it will be a Roman being shot, falling off the clip, discovered by Bo on the beach, thought to be dead and washed out to sea kind of moment….in truth Baker will be alive and well on Stefano’s island with Kristen,Tony, Benji,Andre, Megan,and Renee all of which are enjoying Stefano’s wonderful hospitality……lol If the writers are smart, they should at least consider the idea of keeping Bakers character alive while being presumed dead, he brings much needed enjoyment to the Days cast and would be great to have around in future sl’s….. Dr. Baker could become Stefano’s new Rolf, I think Stefano and Baker in a scene/sl together would be great, then Steffie could always lend Baker out to Vivian…… Anyway isn’t Stefano supposed to be having some health problems here in the near future…..?? THAT could be the reason that Stefano decided to have Baker’s life spared …. Baker could save Stefano,meet the rest of the family on Stefano’s island, return to Salem as Stefano’s new partner in crime, woo Vivian, medicate Nicole and continue to out wit Rafe…. okay, the last one won’t be that hard to do, the writers should be able to handle that…..lol
Comment by Lynn — August 27, 2009 #
I’m with you Jenni. When Kate comes on I have to forward her because I want to reach through the T.V and slap her. I bet when Chloe wakes up she won’t remember anything and Daniel will go to jail. Why is Hope being a bitch to Bo. I understand she was worried but now its over, chill out Hope.
Comment by Anita — August 27, 2009 #
I think I like Chad. I like the chemistry with Mia and him. Mia and Will don’t have any at all.
Sami’s wardrobe is improving. She looked very nice yesterday.
Comment by Jill — August 27, 2009 #
I like Mia paired with Chad romantically over Will also…just do not like the idea of Will being paired with Kinsey as a replacement for Mia, I am not too fond of Kinsey’s character, maybe that is because there are enough witches, both young and old in Salem already…. What Days needs is a true “good girl” character, I don’t mean another Stephanie, who to me falls very short of portraying a good girl, I mean a sweet, innocent, non judgmental,loving root for her at all costs character that pulls at your heart strings and makes you want their character to end up happy, a character that makes you invest in her sl from start to finish….Even though this is what Stephanie and Mia are supposed to represent on the show, it is not coming across that way, not in the way that Jennifer and older Carrie’s, and even Carly’s characters did…. I think it as much the actresses fault(in Stephanie’s case) as it is the material that is being written for them, Stephanie does not have to say her lines in such a way that the words come out snotty and whiny as well as self righteous, if Stephanie changed the way she delivers her lines, the material could come across quite differently to the viewers, as it is now, most of us can not stand her, and Stephanie is supposed to be THE good girl in Salem….oh well, maybe Will can be paired with another teenage girl at school, maybe Chad has a sister who will fit this type of description…..lol I have given up hope that Days will allow an older female to possess these traits…..I can say that I like the way that Melanie ’s character has developed, but Melanie is not the pure good girl character that Days needs(she is above the rest, that is for sure)and I wouldn’t have Melanie’s character any other way… lol Melanie with a bit of an edge is wonderful, funny and enjoyable to watch, I hope that the writers do not make Melanie’s character change and become boring like they did to Sami’s character when in search of a replacement Marlena/good girl…..then there really would be no one left that I could enjoy watching on this show.
Comment by Lynn — August 28, 2009 #
I have to say I am a devoted days watcher. I want when it is boring and when it is good. As much as I hate Kates character…she does deserve the mellow dramatic award of the year, but will be a close race with Stephanie. I am rooting for Rafe/Sami b/c I really do think they have it going on. Now that I see her and EJ together in scenes…it just does not seem the same anymore. I think that Chad/Mia do belong together, but I also think she will end up alone b/c of the whole baby situation, lying to Chad and Will. Doc surfer/Chloe…YES, they do belong together. Hope and Bo will always be Hope and Bo. She gets mad, makes him pay..then goes back to him saying don’t ever keep the truth from me. If Hope were to leave, I think Billie would show back up to replace her (temp tho), b/c by then, she would be heeled from the accident, which leads me to Chelsy/what is his name—future doc boyfriend, anywho…they will come back and he will be Salem’s new doc on board. Stephanie needs to take up race car driving again and join the circuit so we do not have to see her anymore. Bring back Bell and Shawn so Bell can get to Philip again. I like their chemistry better than Shawn/Bell. That way Philip has the TRUE love of his life back and can ditch dramatic Steph. OMG and can someone plz give Roman a soulmate. I just love Stephano…he is really silly these days, a pleasure to watch. EJ needs to end up with EJ…it is all about him anyway so he is prolly in love w/himeself anywho. And Brady…oh my..oh Brady….ditch arianna <—another mellow dramatic character and hook up with someone from AA..at least those 2 could keep each other in check. Poor maggie, being a counselor, AA leader, restraunt owner and married to a non-exsistant husband..wow…kuddos to her. Lucas does need to go back to rehab..he’s making me sick. Melanie, love her too…she is too funny and always ready for the next big thing going on. She does not someone opposite to kinda balance her out tho. Nathan need to goto a dietician and eat a few pizza’s to fatten up. Ok, I wrote a book…just mo opinion’s tho … lol. Have a great day all.

I, too, am glad to see that Sami’s wardrobe and hair are getting better. I know she is still mourning for Grace and all, but geez, somedays they put some really dowdy looking old lady stuff on her. She has looked the best that she has looked in the past couple of episodes.
Comment by Gail — August 28, 2009 #
I would like to see some “sisterly” type bonding between Melanie and Mia.
After all, they both live in the same house.
Would also like to see Hope’s opinion of Melanie change. After all, Hope is very judgmental of Melanie. Maybe Melanie will play matchmaker and get Hope and Bo back together?

Comment by DaffyTaffy 4 elvis — August 29, 2009 #
If Rafe finds Dr. Baker slumped in a chair with a noose around his neck,doesn’t get to check Baker’s pulse and Baker’s fingers appear to move slightly then I am hopeful that Baker only pretends to have committed suicide because he realized that Stefano’s thugs would be on their way to kill him after Nicole told him in their phone conversation that Stephano knew that Baker wanted more money from Nicole….. thugs are not known to be the brightest bulbs in the pack, so that could work out in the end for why Stephano believed that Baker was dead(same reason for Rafe being fooled too) Anyway, I hope that is the case. I really want Days to keep Bakers character on the show….. I have my fingers crossed that Baker will stay, Sami will come to her senses and start pursuing EJ, EJ will get to keep custody of Sydney, Ejami family will finally reunite, Rafe will hook up with an undead Emily, Phillip and Melanie will get together after Phillip realizes what a dummy he has been,Phillip must grovel a wee bit, Stephanie and Nathan will start dating and both leave Salem….well maybe just Stephanie.. lol.Bo and Hope should be mad/conflict for two shows, no longer before they get back on track,Lucas and Arianna should get together, Brady and Nicole need to find their way back to each other, Mia and Chad, Will and Chad’s sister,Kinsey should be sent off to Charm School..lol Chloe/Daniel, Kate/Roman, Victor/Vivian/Stephano triangle before Vivian ends up with Stephano, Caroline and a new older gentlemen, maybe Baker…. Mickey is allowed to come down from the attic and reunite with Maggie, Carly and Lawrence come back still together and happy, Lawrence should still be a gray character, he can offer the Kiriakis/ Dimera families a little competition for the most powerful family in town,Abe and Lexie should have some extended family members move to Salem,or develope a friendship with another African American couple who has children.. this would give Abe/Lexie a chance to have a sl independent of the Brady’s as well as extending the cast to include more than just one black couple that barely has any air time, Justin and Adrienne should reunite and John and Marlena should come back…. I don’t know about anyone else but as much as I enjoyed seeing Craig come to see Chloe, who else thought that it was ridiculous for a character(Chloe) that has been on/off Days for years was given a parent to be there to support her while only sick, yet Sami’s character has been on the show full time, and HER CHILD DIED, but no Marlena/John?????(and barely any Roman) call me crazy, but I think most viewers care more about the characters that they have watched the most over the years and Salem just does not seem the same without them.Well that’s my wish list, I will probably not even get one, but I still have my fingers crossed anyway.

I think Ali’s tweet to the EJAMIS about a surprise was about the MDA auction as her tweet was to the other fan bases. I don’t honestly think that she would tweet something about a story line to one fan base– I would believe that is against her contract to do that. She teased all the fan bases with her tweets the other day. It’s all about the auction and getting people to contribute money to one of the guys to raise more for MDA. Good cause.
Comment by Gail — August 30, 2009 #
I actually like Stephanie.Everyone seems to hate her. She remindes me of Hope many years ago.Yes please bring back Bell and Shawn.I’m fine that Marlena is gone she was always crying.Since I forward Kate cause she makes me to sick to watch I don’t care what happens to her.I will watch the day she gets put in her place and can’t get out of it.As long as its not by Lucas cause thats old and never means anything anyway.I really just want Nicole made to be so little like when Vic got her back.Melaine is great to watch she always makes me laugh.Nicole needs to be remined Samie is the queen bee and how stupied can you be to mess with her.She knows how to get even..P.S. I’m sick of waiting….And please stop the replays I saw them the first time your just killing more time.
Comment by Jenni — August 30, 2009 #
I wouldn’t mind the character of Stephanie if someone else played her lol! Like someone who could actually act. I mean, they are getting paid after all … But she might be a good fit with Nathan. Mel belongs with Philip.
Comment by ANNA — August 30, 2009 #
Baker is alive and will stay on show imo. The look on Stephano’s face today was priceless when he found out about the letter…lol, and Nichole is like whoop-tee-doo…another problem to fix. I do like Mel/Phil together, but will always love Belle/Phil. Since Brady has none other than Victor, at least bring Belle back to be with her brother. Are you reading this writers??? And, if Shawn is back, he can help Bo and Hope deal w/their issues and give Ciara a much needed bigger brother. Caroline and Baker…oh my, that would be hilarious.
I agree w/Jennie that Sammie is queen bee and much smarted than Nichole. I think after EJ finds out about the baby switch, it would be funny then to see him find out his own fatha was behind it and send him to the family island. EJ can get mad at Sammie all he wants, but he will always be obessed like Stephano was with Marlena. Would not be suprised to see him kidnap Sammie away from Rafe and torment her. Poor Sammie…she does deserve better.
Comment by Amanda — August 31, 2009 #
Sami and EJ, Sami and EJ. I want their love to be something worth fighting for. Let Nicole’s and Stefano’s deceit be a wake-up call to both Sami and EJ.Has anyone noticed how much the new Arianna looks like Cloe. Could be her sister – tho I like her clothes better. Cloe looks like a ho. I hate her always flaunting her boobs. I really hated today that Arianna and Brady went to bed together. It really cheapens their relationship. Come on Brady – you can do better. I would really like to see some woman/girl decide to wait till marriage before being bedded. Also we were really reminded recently that this is a show and not real life. I mean, afterall Greg comes to see dying Cloe, but not her mother Nancy? I liked seeing Greg, but comeon -no Nancy and sister. And would Greg have told Lucas to pull the plug without Nancy wanting to come and say good by to Cloe? Not real. Had to remind myself that it was a show afterall. Still miss John and Marlena. And by the way – what’s with Caroline giving up the managing of her business? Miss Caroline, want more of Maggie. Why all the new people when there is already so much talent on board. Bo and Hope (couldn’t get any better). How about Roman and Maggie getting together, after all Micky is a no show?

If anyone has kids and watches NICK, the red-headed girl who used to play Stephanie (back when her and Max got into the racing accident) is on a show called the Fresh Beat Band. It’s great for kids but I think it is super corny. But she does have a pretty good singing voice.
Comment by Deb — September 1, 2009 #
Baker was alive at the end of yesterday’s show. His finger twitched.
So is Mia the only one that is going to get the letter from Baker’s lawyer? Looks like Chad reads it. I hope someone reads it – soon! Then EJ and Sami can start on the road back to each other. He is different around her. With Nicole he acts like an idiot but with Sami he’s, well better.
Comment by Jill — September 1, 2009 #
Sorry Amanda but why does Sami deserve to be happy when she has caused so much misery? I think she would be lucky to have EJ forgive her. She is a selfish little bitch and deserves nothing! She has lived her life hurting others and now she deserves happiness? um NOT, EJ is the one that has suffered the most over Graces death, and losing a child and now will lose another when he finds out Nicole lost their child and never told him. So if anyone deserves a break it’s EJ. His wife his fatha the woman he adores have all betrayed him lied to him and make him look like a fool.
Comment by Angel — September 1, 2009 #
Amen to you Patsy Ann. This new Arianna character is so cheap. Come on Brady what are you thinking? She acts more like a ho than a new love life.
Please writers do something better for Brady or I may start finding me a new soap to watch. Dragging out Chloe’s coma is too long. I love Daniel, he is so good-looking. His character needs more than the writers are giving him. DAYS GET WITH IT AND START WINNING AWARDS LIKE IN THE OLD DAYS. BRING BACK MARLENA & JOHN AND LET SOMEONE ELSE GO.
Comment by Helen — September 1, 2009 #
Yep, I called it. Say hello to the new Savannah Wilder(Arianna)….. Only this time I am sure that there has to be an even bigger twist than the fact that Victor is back to being the top dog supplier of drugs in Salem….. I think that Arianna will be written as an undercover agent who becomes conflicted with her assignment because of the obvious emotional involvement with Brady. how do you arrest your new beau’s grandfather without having many seriously uncomfortable holiday dinners forever after in which you may be the goose that Victor wants to cook…..?? if you think Victor hated Chloe for hurting Brady and Phillip…. that was mild compared to how Victor will treat/crush Arianna for arresting him and exposing what he is doing to all of the rest of his family…… omg, Arianna if you know what’s good for you, you should just pack up and leave Salem now while you still have your skin intact….. lol That is how I believe the whole Arianna/Brady agnst will be played out…..but I almost wish that Arianna was a real dealer, I think the semi good brother/bad sister sl would have a lot of interesting angles that the writers could explore(like a modern day Sami/Eric kind of dynamic) I would love to see Victor being the one who is working with the police to set-up/bust Arianna instead of the other way around… you know Victor would do anything to protect Caroline and Arianna is supposed to be dealing out of the Brady pub….I also like the idea of good boy Brady being attracted to,and choosing between two shady women(Nicole and Arianna) more than I do a poor misunderstood, secret life of a closet good girl vs. Salem’s undisputed town witch sl…….didn’t we just do that with Sami/EJ/ Nicole anyway……time for a change.lol…. I think that the cat fights/schemes/action between these three(Brady/Ari/Nicole) could hit new heights in Salem if Arianna and Nicole are pitted against each other equally, both as bad girls trying to reform-in front of Brady’s watching eyes only……. but behind Brady’s back…..ouch, watch out for a no holds barred fight for the love of Brady……just an alternative theory for the writers to consider…lol Besides, I don’t like the idea of Bo, Hope, Roman, Abe, John or Steve not being able to have caught on/ suspected/find out that Victor was up to his old tricks, if indeed Victor is, before another new character comes to town and steals all the glory/sl away from them….. given their history/distrust with/of Victor, you can not tell me that no-one, not ONE of Salem’s original cast wasn’t monitoring what Victor is doing……. I don’t buy it.
Comment by Lynn — September 2, 2009 #
The Arianne being undercover will play into Why When Rafe finds out Sydney is Sami and EJ’s child he can’t tell her. I think maybe some one threatens to tell Victor Ari is undercover if Rafe tells. and I think that somebody is Stefano. You know Stefano had Rafe checked out so he knows Ari is setting Victor up. So if Rafe tells Ari is dead Victor will kill her. So rafe will figure out the switch but will be forced to keep his big trap shut (which is how it should be he has no business being the one to tell Sami EJ should tell her)I am a little sick of all the tramps in Salem falling into bed with whoever likes them at the moment. weird to see Ethan and Teresa on days doing their sex scenes. But i have to admit I always loved watching him kiss her they way he puts his hands in her hair yikes. they could just stop with the kissing and that is enough to raise the heat in the house lol. I am excited about seeing Steph get blown away seeing Mel and Phil making love. she so deserves it lol. and then Phil wanting Mel back and her being with Nathan could be good. Steph needs to sit back and watch what her cold hot treatment of Phil has done. And Kate can you believe the writers really want us to believe Lucas doesn’t listen to what she is saying to himHello Lucas she is telling you to kill her even tho it appears she is getting better would you mind asking her WHY geesh.
Comment by Angel — September 2, 2009 #
EJ hasn’t caused misery? Didn’t he have Stephanie, Sami’s cousin, kidnapped and didn’t he try to kill Philip not once, but twice? Didn’t he have Sami’s step-brother, Brady, beaten up? And we won’t even go to the r word. And Sami is just going to forget about all this? Why would she? Because she loves him so much or b/c she didn’t want Grace around him or his family so she hid her existence from him. Now,it will be OK for him to be Sydney’s father? Sami has never said she was in love with EJ, but she has said many, many times how much she loves Rafe.
Sami did some bad things in her earlier days, but the last two years, she hasn’t done any of those kinds of things. She has tried to reform and become a better person. Why shouldn’t she be given a chance at happiness. It isn’t her fault that EJ’s father and his wife both lied to him.
Comment by Gail — September 2, 2009 #
pair sami up with justin if your not going to return to us ejami..i can see her with anyone but lying to her face rafe….he won’t share squat with sami, so she needs to move on with her life…besides, when arianna puts her neck in the noose with crime-boss victor kiriakis she’ll be in deep trouble, which brother rafe is going to risk his life helping her out with..i don’t want sami anywhere near that mess…do you guys realize that the head writer has copied her tearesa and sheridan’s dad storyline almost verbatim….
Comment by StrawberryKisses — September 2, 2009 #
I guess you missed the episode where Sami told EJ that a part of her would always love him or the episode that was copied for Rafe and Sami when Rafe fell off the ladder and Sami broke down…… well the ORIGINAL scene that was first aired was between Sami and EJ when EJ fell down the steps at the hospital,Sami had a nervous break down because Sami just couldn’t live without EJ that day EITHER…..Everyone has their favorite couple and picks on who we want to see together, just don’t rewrite/omit history to make a point, the writers do enough of that already….Sami does/did have strong feelings for EJ no matter how much she tried to deny it or hide it, the feelings were there. Why else would Sami STILL be screaming about EJ and Nicole?? That is the only reason that Sami is still angry at EJ …. Sami fell in love with EJ,didn’t want to admit it,yet Sami did not want EJ to date Nicole(because Sami wanted EJ herself)Sami was super jealous of Nicole/EJ, as well as hurt and betrayed that the man that she was in love with would be with Nicole, so ah, no I don’t see Rafe as Sami’s super hero, I see him as Sami’s rebound…. Sami only thinks its love because Sami HAS NO ONE ELSE RIGHT NOW. Yep, the writers did make Sami’s character dull and boring over the past two years,(mostly since Rafe) that doesn’t mean that Sami hasn’t been a royal, selfish bitch along the way though……Sami is not innocent and I don’t call Sami trying to turn her life around being proven out by any of the actions that Sami has done lately:lying about your child, letting a STRANGER move in, ADOPT your child, Taunting the real father with his daughter’s death,waiting until the baby is dead and then tell your whole family and the baby’s father that oops, I had a baby, sorry she had to DIE before I ever told you…. give me a break, Sami is not innocent in ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM, at Least EJ had an excuse for trying to harm Phillip, he thought Phillip killed his brother Tony or at the very least, EJ was grief stricken and not thinking clearly, Sami had no such excuse….. the writers FORGOT to give Sami one, I guess the writers figured that we would all side with Sami over EJ and that Sami didn’t need a good reason to be horrible to those “dirty, nasty, Dimera’s”……. well, for this fan, Sami needs to have a better reason for her actions then what has been given….. like the truth, Sami is in love with EJ….. her jealousy and stupid writing made her act like an ass, or this fan is just not buying it.Angel, I also agree that Rafe should not be the one to have figured out the switch, the sl had NOTHING to do with Rafe so I hope your prediction comes true and Rafe is forced to sit on the information until EJ finds out through Chad, Will or Mia,EJ confronts Nicole/Stefano and decides how he wants to handle the custody issue with Sami. I think EJ should be allowed to keep full custody of Sydney, I think EJ should move out on his own with his daughter, allow Sami some visitation with the baby, but Sydney should stay full time with EJ for now, EJ adores his daughter and he is the only parent that Sydney knows…..

Victor sure has become evil! Aneston plays it to perfection but what if Kate gets the goods on him now that he has this drug dealing operation!
For me it would be best to see Sami INDEPENDENT of any man already!

Dean’s last air date will be September 11. He doesn’t seem to get killed, though.
Comment by happyme — September 3, 2009 #
Just b/c you are grief stricken over someone’s death is not an excuse for trying to murder someone. What was EJ’s excuse for kidnapping Stephanie? How about his excuse for beating up Brady? Why is is OK to excuse everything EJ does, but condemn everything Sami and Rafe do?
I don’t remember Sami ever saying she was in love with EJ. I do remember her saying a part of her would always love him. ( I guess to me those aren’t the same things and it is sure open to interpretation). I also remember that when Sami said that to EJ, the next minute Rafe knocked on the door and she ran to him and hugged him and then told EJ, “gee I am sorry,I forgot you were here”. Doesn’t sound like someone who was in love to me.
Also, Sami has told Rafe many, many times that she is in love with him and loves him so much. Never said that to EJ. She had sex twice with EJ– once forced. She has made love with Rafe quite a few times.
As far as the scene about Rafe falling off the ladder and EJ falling down the stairs, wasn’t that when Stefano released the gas in the hospital and everyone was not thinking straight b/c they were under the influence of the gas? No one was under the influence of anything when Rafe fell off the ladder and Sami expressed her not wanting to ever have him leave her. Yes, the scenes may be copied, but they weren’t played out quite the same way. If I remember correctly, Sami was hallucinating the hospital and even thought that EJ was Stefano and that’s why she tripped him on the stairs.
Sami did have an excuse for not telling EJ about Grace. She was afraid of the Dimera family and having her child raised by them. After she found out what EJ had done to Philip, she decided that she didn’t want Grace to be raised by a murderer.
I think if EJ finds out the truth about Sydney he will withhold it from sami to punish her which is just as bad as what she did.

Ok i’ve had to work late the past week. so im a little lost. whatever happened to the other 2 letters bakers lawyers sent? to sami and mia? if they said already I must have missed it.
also i hate how everyone hates sami, I feel she’s redeemed herself and is trying to be a good person. I wouldnt have wanted to tell Ej about the baby either, and I dont think she waited until it died to tell him out of spite, she went to tell him many times but he acted mean or dumb everytime, so she never did. But when she died, she knew she had to tell him. IMO anyways.
I want kate to go down, I want baker back and causing a ruckus, and I want stephanie to feel like crap when she sees that sex video. I’m def liking mel more and more, shes redeeming herself also lately.
Also I hope nothing bad happens to victor, I love him and stephano actually, they are hilarious. Jennifer anniston is lucky her dad is a kiriakis hahaha.

What happens to Dean on the 11th? Does anyone know? Does he get the reward? I hope Ciara tells Bo & Hope she thinks Dean is the one making the clicking sound she heard.

It says what happens with Dean near the bottom of the following page. I assume he gets arrested.

I must admit, Sami does make me feel sorry for her sometimes, but not Nicole!
Comment by ANNA — September 4, 2009 #
Well here we go again with Bo and Hope breaking up over Ciara’s kidnapping. Hope is not worthy to have Bo as a husband if she is constantly going to treat him like that the minute something goes horribly wrong in their lives. What ever happened to trust and forgivness? A super couple they are not! If they were, they would find a way to work it out!
Comment by Deb — September 4, 2009 #
Maybe Bo puts Dean in jail. I don’t think he dies. Looks like Rafe figures out about Sami and Sydney.
I wonder if Mia reads the letter from Doc Baker?
Comment by Jill — September 4, 2009 #
Sami always wants whoever she can’t have, and when she finally gets them, she sabatoges it and it’s over, cries about it for awhile then moves on to the next guy, or goes back to someone from before.
Comment by april — September 4, 2009 #
Ashley— ITA with you. Sami has tried hard to redeem herself and is trying to be a good person. She feels that all the bad things that have happened to her lately– Grace’s death and Rafe leaving her are karma for all the bad things she did in her life. She has admitted that she has done bad things and is responsible for them, which is a step in the right direction.
IMO, Sami did make the right decision about not telling EJ about Grace. She even told her dad before her funeral that she was so glad that she did what she did, even tho she knew EJ would come after her for it.
Rafe coming into Sami’s life has helped her be honest with herself and others. He has been a good influence on her.
Comment by Gail — September 4, 2009 #
Ashley– The lawyer put the other two letters in the mail. Nicole goes to Sami’s house to intercept the letter he sent her and flushes it down the toilet. Rafe tries to get it away from her,but she is too quick with it. I think she gets Mia’s,too.
Comment by Gail — September 4, 2009 #
Hi, Gail
I love to read your emails. You have such a great
way of commenting of DOOL story line. Like you, I can see a very positive change and sincere in Sami’s character. Rafe does have a great influence and a wonderful, caring concern for her which I hope can get better and better for them!
Could Victor really be a drug pusher, if so I have lost interest in him if tho he is a good actor. I sorry, I don’t like that type of story but if only they get caught.
Seems like EJ’s story should be that he and Nicole could fine their own empire and be out from under his father and I know their is the baby situation on how EJ will react.
What do you think if the story of DOOL could have the dads, moms, grandparents get away from what is happening now and get back to good old days like it use to be? I know some things went on them. I miss the special cookouts, celebrations and all the birthdays they use to have.
I’m still wishing and hoping for Rafe and Sami
with a theme song like “A Summerplace”. Remember the movie?
Thanks again, Gail.

Comment by Donna — September 4, 2009 #
ok Gail You say why is it okay to over look everything EJ has done. Rafe pulled a gun on that lawyer today is that okay? after all he was doing it for Sami. And what about the fact that he doesn’t trust her enough to tell her about Emily? and when he finds out about Sydney if he loves Sami so much wouldn’t he run and tell her right away so she wouldn’t suffer any more? I think Rafe fans over look a whole lot more than EJ fans do we as EJ fans know he is a bad boy we expect that from him but Rafe is a snake he is sneaky and mean and breaks the law and has a past he will not talk about, but yet its fine and dandy he moves right in with Sami and her kids Adopts her child sleeps with her and he is hailed a hero. He walked out on her because he refused to tell her about Emily and now he is trying to worm his way back in by finding the truth oh please… Now I would like to address the Rape or should I say Bargain EJ did not force Sami to make love to him he bargained with her and she accepted it. Rape is bring forced to have sexual relations. EJ did not force her he told her he would trade her sex for his help that is a bargain, now as for EJ causing misery I never said he didn’t but 99% of the bad stuff that happens is Stefano not EJ and yes he did all kind of bad things till he thought he had a chance with Sami. He left the family his father everything if it wasn’t for EJ John Black would have never been found. But you don’t want to give him credit for that. Or how he was willing to give it all up for the woman he loves. Lynn is totally right Sami told EJ a part of her would always love EJ which means she loved him once and I think still does. Lynn was exactly right what she said about them. Rafe is not the good guy they started out to make him. He had a dark past and it will come out that he isn’t the law abiding citizen he is trying to make everyone think he is. And at least with EJ y9ou know what your getting with Rafe you know NOTHING absolutely nothing!
Comment by Angel — September 4, 2009 #
Sami not telling EJ was Selfish and cruel you say she is trying to change and do the right things? She did the same thing with Will by not telling Lucas he was the father. EJ loves Sami he would have protected her and she knows it. He proved his love to her over and over. I don”t see lying and keep a man from his child as doing the “right” thing the only reason she didn’t tell him is because she was mad about Nicole. She was going to allow Rafe to adopt EJ’s child and that was trying to be good and do the right thing? She waitied till the baby was DEAD to tell him just so she could crush him and that is her trying to change? Sami will never change she is grieving now but the old Sami will be back up to her tricks and we will see the Witch of Salem return. Especially if EJ gets full custody of Sydney which he should get. He is the only parent besides Nicole Syd knows it would be cruel to give her to Sami. And YES EJ is a victim in this baby switch too. like it or not he was duped and Rafe thinking it was automaticly EJ that paid the lawyer off what a creep. Rafe is worried about EJ I think even he knows Sami still loves EJ and they could get back together.
Comment by Angel — September 5, 2009 #
Kate needs to get what’s coming to her. I hate to say it, but I finally like Chloe…but only with Dr. Dan. They’re a great couple, and have the chemistry.
…As do Sami and EJ! I’m hoping the baby switch will at least give them some tender scenes together again– eventually. Ejami is the couple with the most spark of ANY couple I’ve ever seen on DOOL. Whether they’re fighting or loving each other– its great to see!
IMO, Nicole has been a wonderful actress lately. She has spunk and her facial expressions are priceless…LOVE her!!
Mel has also finally grown on me as well…but not sure who she should end up with..maybe Will to spice him up a bit? Haha. She’s a real firecracker, and he’s more of a dud.
Mia + Chad is a good combo as well…if she would finally come out of her shell. Chad would literally have to drag the emotion out of her.
Don’t really see a point to the Nathan character yet…hopefully they can figure out a decent place for him.
Brady and Ari are an interesting match, but I’d like to see the dynamic if Nicole is thrown in the mix. Brady def loves her still…and he’s the only one Nicole’s ever been able to count on!!! More of those 2 please!
Comment by Lindsay — September 5, 2009 #
Sami would of told EJ about the baby and would be with him if it wasn’t for Stefano.That’s the real bad guy.He has been really funny lately.You know he is gonna throw Nicole away soon.He is just using her for the moment.Sami will snap out of this dumb stage soon cause she is one smart girl,much smarter then Nicole.Why can’t we have one great episode a week where people actually find things out.I’m so sick of waiting it’s just so old.My best friend used to watch the show and we would talk about it.She gave up now i writing to you all and reading your blogs.Thanks I’m glad I not alone watching these crazy people.I just love Melaine she is great.Will needs to perk up a bit,or a-lot.Do you all remember he was a mute.Not really but he never had any talking parts as a kid.Sill just hate Kate wish someone would poison her!Rafe is a nice guy but Sami is only temp good girl.I don’t think her could keep up with her when she goes back to her great twisted ways.
Comment by Jenni — September 5, 2009 #
Gail, you are not making much sense to me….. you said that Sami didn’t want her child raised by a murder, that is the excuse you gave for Sami’s actions concerning EJ and Grace right? so let me ask you this, who exactly did EJ murder???? And didn’t EJ have phiilip shot AFTER Sami had ALREADY lied about Grace’s paternity, so…..how do you excuse what Sami did as not being wrong now? I know, Sami must be a secret fortune teller like her uncle Bo…. And what would you call Lucas….??? you know, Lucas,the father of Sami’s other two children, who actually did commit murder once, as well as attempting to MURDER EJ,(2 time attempted murder vs. real murder) isn’t murdering/murderer Lucas raising Sami’s two children with her in spite of this?Didn”t Sami initially want murdering/murderer Lucas to pretend to be the father of all three kids??If your logic is to hold any credibility, then shouldn’t Sami feel this way about Lucas too? Wouldn’t it make more sense for Sami to truly fear the father of her child that almost let Sami die(Lucas)over the father of her children (EJ) who could have died himself in trying to protect Sami from all harm/Stefano/shooter at cabin??? I know it’s okay logic to you because you are a safe fan, well for those of us who are not, what you say in defense of Sami’s actions is just not plausible.In real life, I do not condone ANYONE of trying to commit murder for any reason whatsoever,my point was related to watching a character(EJ) and being able to at least say, ah, EJ wants to kill Phillip because Tony died, as opposed to watching another character (Sami) and saying, what the hell is she talking about, WHY does she want to hide this baby from EJ,did Sami really just say that, what is Sami talking about????? one hundred thousand times to my t.v. screen.It all relates to good writing or lack thereof. So, no, I was not making an excuse for EJ’s character while bashing Rafe/Sami for their misdeeds, I was stating what I feel is most obvious: Sami fearing EJ, hiding their baby from EJ sl popped up from out of no where,with no rational reasoning behind it and EJ’s desire to avenge a loved one was explained (before hand) by the events that had recently occurred with Tony.I didn’t say it was right, I said I saw where the writers were going with the sl and since EJ is a gray character his actions did not surprise or dismay me, there was some kind of twisted logic behind EJ’s reasoning, I can not say the same for Sami, Sami’s character has been a disappointment to me for awhile.I was actually looking forward/enjoying two great gray characters being paired together romantically. A Brady/Dimera love story would/should have been awesome given the history of this show and the talent of the actors involved.Instead we got safe, big time bummer.You may want to deny that Sami did not have any feelings for EJ, if that was so, then the writers would not be intent on copying intimate moments shared between Sami and EJ in order to drive home to the viewers how much Sami supposedly cares for Rafe now.If my memory serves me correctly, after Ej’s fall, Sami cried and pleaded with EJ to live BECAUSE Sami realized she had tripped EJ and not Stefano, which was what Sami had originally imagined. then Sami and EJ did some heavy making out in the stairwell of the hospital. EJ and Sami also had a heart to heart conversation in which Sami admitted to caring for EJ, so yeah, like I said before stop omitting/changing facts to try and make your view point more credible, Sami snapped out of the effects of the gas BEFORE she ran to comfort EJ or else Sami would have Never of realized that it was even EJ that she hurt in the first place, Sami would have continued to see/ think that it was Stefano if still under the influence of the gas Stefano had released that day, so nice try,……BUT……. Sami knew very well what she was saying to EJ.(I know you tried to leave out the conversation between the two in your argument,but I watch the show too,honey.lol) And yes, as a matter of fact, I do think that Sami running to Rafe in front of EJ shows exactly that Sami is still in love with EJ, why else put on such a childish show if not for the benefit of watching EJ become jealous? Sami has always been vindictive and in my opinion she was hoping to make EJ jealous so that Sami could prove to herself that EJ did still love/want her, Sami only wanted to prove a point to EJ that she had moved on with Rafe because EJ appeared to have moved on with Nicole, I say appeared because we all know that their relationship is doomed,always has been. if Sami didn’t still care for EJ why was her main source of anger at not being able to tell EJ about Grace stemming from the fact that Nicole was pregnant and lording it over Sami like a queen bee, I believe where Sami’s words, why would Sami see her own face as the bride after reading the wedding announcement of EJ/Nicole, if Sami was truly over EJ/never loved EJ at all( and as reformed/in love with by Rafe as you want her to be? so yep Angel, I’m with you on Sami still being in love with EJ and on the non-rape issue that seems to get everyone’s knickers in a twist, a fact that I find truly amazing since there was never any rape that happened involving EJ and Sami in the first place…… rape IS forced sex,once again, Sami had an option, whether or not EJ gave Sami choices she didn’t like is not the point, the fact is he still did give Sami the chance to make a yes or no decision,a real rapist/rape would not do that/happen that way, I didn’t say that it wasn’t sleazy on EJ’s part, I said it was a decision made by Sami,and it was, for what ever reason, NO ONE TOOK the decision away from Sami…. Besides, Sami still fell in love with EJ anyway, so that is not really even the issue, it is just a justification for safe and Lumi fans to throw at Ejami fans when there is nothing currently bad to be said about EJ,(but alot bad about Sami/Rafe/Lucas)so they dig deep into the bag, and throw out….EJ RAPIST!!!When in fact, if you look at the events of that night it could be defined as many things, blackmail,bargain, solicitation would even fit better for what happened than rape would……….I think you may be upset because deep in your little safe lovin heart, you know that Sami really does love EJ, just like I do…..lol Ejami is on the way, you know you can feel it coming, c’mon,admit it………LOL

Sami needs to be ALONE so people stop bickering about her love life already!
Comment by happyme — September 5, 2009 #
Are we going to read the next episode? When will the next episode be the 7th or 8th? Is this gossip or is the truth about Nicole putting Sami’s letter from Baker’s lawyer down the commode. I thought she was reading it and then stuffed it in her purse when Rafe came in. That’s what I saw on my TV. I guess whoever saw that had powers like Bo. Anyway, I sure hope not…..Any comments on this?
Comment by Helen — September 6, 2009 #
Don’t write Rafe off. He is ssssssssssssso sexy – oh those eyes! Yes E. J. is handsome, but there is something so appealing of Rafe!!!
Comment by debbie — September 6, 2009 #
Well, Lynn and Angel, i guess we will agree to disagree on this one. You like EJAMI and want them to be together and I like SAFE and want them to be together. We can debate this until hell freezes over and neither of us is going to change our minds, right???
So, I will continue to stick by SAFE and you continue to stick by Ejami. I guess time and the writers will tell who wins out in the end.
Comment by Gail — September 6, 2009 #
I second that, happyme.
On another note, has anyone notice that Dr. Dan only seems to be interested in women who are his patients? Rebecca (his late wife), Chelsea, Kate, and now Chloe.

Let’s just say Rafe’s behavior is an occupational hazard. He’s use to interrogating people and carrying a gun.

Helen, the next show airs on Tuuesday the 8th so we will be able to read about it late Monday afternoon, probably.
Comment by ANNA — September 6, 2009 #
I agree with you Debbie Rafeis very sexyand all man.EJs a pretty face in a fancy suit.
Comment by patsy — September 6, 2009 #
Thanks Anna for answering my comments. I’ve been watching Days since the 60’s off & on. I would tape the shows while I was at work and would watch them late at night. I just celebrated my 80th birthday in July. I would like to see someone with their faith like Alice had instead of so much sex & crime on the show. Why can’t Hope stand by her man. She has their daughter back. What else does she want? Writers are you reading my comments? I know Anna does. Thanks again Anna for keeping me informed.
Comment by Helen — September 7, 2009 #
Helen, Nicole did shove the letter in her purse. I think once she realizes why Rafe is there, she’ll excuse herself to the bathroom and dispose it there. At least that’s what I’m assuming.
Comment by lisa — September 7, 2009 #
I must add I want Sami with EJ but Rafe is way hot.I’m not sure who he would be good with.Maybe Carrie if she came back.
Comment by Jenni — September 7, 2009 #
Rafe to me is not sexy but that is my opinion his eye are droopy and his smile is crooked . He has a tone body but all the men on day’s has that. EJ on the other hand hmmm Pretty face in a suit yep and a whole lot more lol. he doesn’t sound like “Yo Bro whassup” is gonna fly out of his mouth any second. As for What you wrote Lynn you were right on target and no Safe fan will ever admit your are 100% right. because they know that relationship is on shaky ground and they need to defend it so they can hopefully get the writers to save it. Rafe pulled a gun on an innocent man Friday is that the type of man that should be around Sami’s Kids? What if he wants Will to answer a question will he pull a gun on him too? Silly question right Well that is as silly as saying Sami was protecting Grace from EJ because EJ would be a danger to his child. Rafe wikk not discuss his past I don’t care what the reason is he expects Sami to just let him move in without knowing anything about him now the writers have him figuring out the baby switch then there is the little thing with the gun at the lawyers head a bullet to the brain is what I believe Rafe said to him, He was an total bully to Will He talks to EJ like he was dirt with now reason at all except for what Sami told him about EJ, If the writers Are doing these things to Rafes character to win him a larger fan base it isn’t working. Everytime Rafe talks to EJ i want to crawl in my TV and slap his face. He has no right to say anything to EJ Rafe is the one who tried to steal EJ’s child. As far as I can tell EJ hasn’t done anything to Rafe to garner that kind of treatment but that just proves another one of my points Rafe is a thug and he has NO CLASS and he is arrogant with no right to be he is not a “good guy” he is as bad as all of them. Yes Gail we will agree to disagree it is very hard to fight the truth isn’t it? Lynn hit every point right on the head concerning EJ and Sami. I just wish I had written it lol.
Comment by Angel — September 7, 2009 #
i love ej and sami together but i would like to see brandon make a comeback and shake things up a bit perhaps sami could get a job at the hospital not realizing brandon was hired on to take over for dr baker
Comment by bridon — September 7, 2009 #
Ej and Sami have had more shake ups than i can imagine lol Lucas now Rafe so why not bring back Brandon heck bring all her men back Austin, Franco (no one is really dead in Day’s Stefano probably has him on an island some where) The guy that Raped her (not EJ that wasn’t rape) Heck then all the men in Salem could be fighting over Sami and all her baggage. I think it’s tome for Sami and EJ to have their shot at love they have jerked those two around for going on 2 years now. I am not happy with the Rafe Sami storyline Rafe is to much of a thug to be with Sami. It’s like watching her be with Roman. Not that Roman is a thug but Rafe has that I’m the boss and it’s all my way type of personality. He is not got a tender bone in his body, and what they are doing to his character now makes him harder to like than before. I just don’t understand why the people at Day’s don’t do something about this aweful writing. and the Passions stars going to Day’s and litterly playing the sames characters they did on Passions all they did was change the names. I like Eric as Brady as long as he isn’t with Ari. Lindsey and Eric had a lot of chemistry on Passions but not so much on Day’s I guess the you can’t have want you want made the chemistry work fo them on Passions It doesn’t work on Day and then Galen and Lindsey being Brother and sister was just lame. Just becasue the writers liked them together on Passions doesn’t mean it is going to work on Day’s weird. It might of worked if they had them not related and Ari and Brady weren’t an item. If I’m right Brady and Ari will be in love but never be together that is what these writers did to them for 9 years in Passions let them have sex every three months or so but then they went on to other people but always ended up having sex but never got to be together till the show ended. I really hope this show doesn’t do that to any of the couples. We know Bo and Hope are breaking up which sucks they were the last couple left in Salem. I guess Lexi and Abe will be the only couple that is happy left in Salem but I bet there are plans to break them up too. The Passions writers they hired really do bite all they know how to write is doom and gloom no happy ending or happy couples just bed hopping and fights and threats and other crap. Guess Corday doesn’t care this soap is sinking faster than the Titanic. Chole and Dan I am dreading the reunion all that means is more soft porn scenes and then when they appear happy they too will break up Phil will be available so Chole will more likley end up with him again for 5 minutes. I just wish these writers would start a stroy line and see it through instead of dropping it mid story don’t they realize we are watching and we have good memories and we know when they side step a story line or just drop it. Like the big to do with Tony on his deathbed gving EJ that note you watch after that big scene they will sluff it off as a passing thought When EJ finds out about Sydney he will Say oh the note from Tony with the B he knew and was trying to tell me. Big deal huh. See i could write this show lol. I can write repetive and boreing lol and sex scenes. lol
Comment by Angel — September 7, 2009 #
I want EJ and Sami together but I love Rafe. I just don’t think he and Sami are the right fit. I can’t think of who Rafe could pair up with either though. I also can’t think of any girls for Lucas. I want to see them put Rafe back in the FBI though! And hurry up with the baby switch already!!!

Comment by ANNA — September 7, 2009 #
Angel, I hope you never write for Days. I like the actors from Passions and Brady and Arianna are cute together. Take it easy! As James Scott (EJ) recently said IT’S ONLY A SOAP OPERA! Enjoy it or go bash elsewhere, please!
Comment by happyme — September 7, 2009 #
I am so sick of hearing the rape word when it comes to Ej…Donna said in a blog that Sami didn’t tell Rafe about the rape but should. You know why she didn’t tell Rafe? Because it never happened. No woman in their right mind would sleep with their rapist. Sami has never been afraid of Ej and she didn’t want Ej to know about the baby because of Stephano. I can’t count the number of times Sami told Rafe what a good father Ej was. Out of Ejamis love came Sydney. Sami even stayed in a safehouse with Ej and the twins…no fear there.
The reason Ej had Stephanie taken was because Victor had Stephano and he was dying. It was supposed to be a swap but Owen became obsessed with Stephanie and wouldn’t let her go and in no way did Ej know Stephanie was in a drawer in a morgue.Stephano is Ejs worse enemy besides his wife Nichole.
Jack was a rapist..raped Kayla.
Bill raped Laura…Jennifer was born and Bill and Laura stayed together.
Sami raped Austin by drugging him…Sami is a rapist and you want your guys to be with Sami, the rapist. Double standards, HUH?
Luke and Laura. Luke raped Laura and they went on to be the biggest supercouple in soap history.
Sami said it was not rape the night she and Ej made love. Get over it. It’s getting tired. Ejami is coming.

Amen, happyme!!!
I don’t know why some of you even watch the show You bash the actors, characters, writers, producers, directors, and storylines. If you dislike the show so much, find another soap to watch and move on.
I am all for discussing and debating issues, plots,and characters, but I really don’t see the need for all the nastiness and hatred when someone disagrees.
Comment by Gail — September 8, 2009 #
Gail and Happyme,
I’m so glad someone agrees with me. I’ve been thinking the same thing but didn’t know if I should say anything or not. I love DOOL and been watching since ‘65 as much as I could. This is the only soap opra that I stayed with and will continue to watch…I know everyone at DOOL will keep up the good work and keep the storylines coming. It has some of the best actors, my favorite are GG/AS ( they do have style and class!). (Gail, I check each day to see what you have to say!!!)
Still pulling for Rafe and Sami, for them to stand strong!

Comment by Amanda — September 9, 2009 #
Hey everyone, I love the show.I am way to busy with work,kids and family to watch much T.V.I can say it is the one show I always find time for.I just want it to move faster.I have been reading all your blogs and i have to comment on the so called Rape.Rape is a strong word,That in my opinion was not!I know It’s crazy but I just really want that super good feeling you get when you see what you have been waiting for for so long.You like it so much you play it over a couple times.Please writers make the baby switch happen and maybe EJ lock Nicole in a dark room.Sami is looking much better these days.Is Kristen still on a island? She should come back if so.Poor Philp he’s a cutie it would be nice to see him happy with someone.Thats sad if Vic is really smug-ing drugs.We all know he does bad things but its never really put out there what it is.Ari is growing on me.I like this new one.I’m not sure yet if Brady is the one but she’s kinda sassy and she’s pretty.There all nice to look at.Oh not Kate.Ya I really don’t like her.
Comment by Jenni — September 9, 2009 #
I’m sure glad the baby switch is about to come an end. I guess Nicole will be off the show for awhile to have her baby in real life. She is really a beautiful woman, it just her character I don’t care for but thats what makes us watch the show. Hey Hope, Bo is your boss. How can you override him and say that there will a reward for Dean? It just does not make any sense to me. Little Ciara is so smart, smarter that her mother…
Comment by Helen — September 9, 2009 #
So Kate and Stefano are getting married. Ha, that’s funny. This could be interesting. Those two together could do some serious damage. I wonder what her children are going to think of that. Hmmm…
Comment by Jill — September 9, 2009 #
I was hoping the babyswitch would be over soon, too, but from what I am hearing, they may drag it out even longer. Rafe is going to get hit over the head by Meredith and kidnapped ( SOD). By then, he knows the truth,but can’t tell anyone b/c of the kidnapping. Also heard rumors that say that Nicole kidnaps Sydney and takes her to Europe. After the kidnapping is over, Rafe tells Sami the whole story and they go to Europe to find Sydney with Ej trailing after them.
Now, this isn’t all fact, and may change,but even if part of it is true, I am guessing that the switch s/l will last longer than November.
It needs to be over 2 months ago IMO. The viewers have lost interest now.
Comment by Gail — September 9, 2009 #
OMG, if Kate and Stefano marry, then will Lucas and EJ be step-brothers????
Comment by Gail — September 9, 2009 #
Kate & Stefano, what a pair…Not a marriage made in heaven but the other place..And yes Gail, EJ & Lucas will be step-brothers. Can you imagine that? What a mess!!!!! Here Victor was protecting her, now she is running to Stefano.
Comment by Helen — September 10, 2009 #
Well, that should be interesting– Lucas and EJ as step-brothers!!! Oh, boy!! Kate and Stefano — I wonder who will do the other one in first? With Kate controlling Lucas and Stefano controlling EJ– the fur is gonna fly!!!
Comment by Gail — September 10, 2009 #
Oh good grief, I hope Meredith doesn’t do that. The baby switch needs to end. Maybe Nicole decideds to take Sydney on her Paris honeymoon without EJ and that is the kidnapping spoiler.
I think the Kate/Stefano marriage could be a hoot, not to mention some serious trouble making for the good people of Salem. I think Kate turns to Stefano because Victor will protect Daniel at all costs so Kate knows she won’t get anywhere with asking Victor for help. She basically already did and he told her no.
I really like Melanie.
Comment by Jill — September 10, 2009 #
Stefano has wanted Kate to marry him for a very long time and now that she wants something from him, yet again, she has to pay up this time by marrying him.
Comment by Deb — September 10, 2009 #
Ah, my only question is whether or not Kate and Nicole will occupy the DiMera mansion at the same time… THAT would be hysterical, Stefano fielding Nicole’s many disasters and she and Kate actively sniping at each other… Hee, hee. Sounds like fun to me! I wonder how fast EJ will move once that happens…
Comment by Pat — September 11, 2009 #
I feel bad for Melaine.I don’t want anyone mad at her.I’m sad when she cries i think she’s a great little actress!Why can’t Rafe,EJ and Sami all go after evil Nicole together?
Comment by Jenni — September 11, 2009 #
At this point, we know Stefano wanting Kate to marry ihm in return for his help is a spoiler, but her accepting is srill rumorish. Here’s to hoping it happens. What a hoot and talk about payback! And now Victor will be free for Vivian. They will probbaly explain Ivan’s absence by saying he died by falling out of a hot air balloon or skydiving, etc …!
Comment by ANNA — September 11, 2009 #
By all means, let Stepheno marry evil Kate and take her to Italy to stay forever and we would never ever have to see her again. He could also take Nicole with him and keep her as well so that we never have to put up with her snarky ways again. I don’t want to see Brady get stuck with her. He deserves SO MUCH BETTER.
Comment by Deborah — September 11, 2009 #
I think Brady deserves better than Nicole too. I love that he and Melanie as such close friends. I think that is a cute relationship. I don’t see how Kate can say no to Stefano if she wants his help. He doesn’t seem like the type that will help her if she doesn’t do as she wishes and she’s pretty desperate (or will be soon).
It irked me yesterday when Nicole, yet again got away with her scheme. Sigh…
Comment by Jill — September 11, 2009 #
Meredith is going to do that. The spoilers say that Rafe goes to Sami’s place to get DNA evidence and Meredith is there and knocks him over the head with a fireplace poker. Then she hides from Sami. I am assuming that Stefano’s goons take Rafe somewhere to keep him out of sight so he won’t tell Sami. Meanwhile,Sami wants Rafe back and she is worried that she can’t find him. From there on out,it is anybody’s guess as to what happens. I would think Sami goes looking for Rafe.
Comment by Gail — September 11, 2009 #
Has anyone guessed when Nicole’s last day will be? She should be ready to go on maternity leave..real maternity leave from the show. Poor Rafe..will he still be on the show when that happens. A good answer, please……
Comment by Helen — September 12, 2009 #
Hi everyone
I can’t believe how easy it is to get medication in that hospital, even the computers are so easy to access. What I found also weird is how fast the sex video got to the hospital as well. I mean common thay also go on sex web site on their break to lock at sex video and it happen to be the one of a co-worker hum…..I know it’s a soap but how far can they push the unreality of there hospital. well anyhow……
Love love love Melanie, I think she is refreshing the show. Breaking Bope, is old and deja vu.
Can’t wait to smile in my coach, when Nicole gets caught. I was starting to have sympathy for her, but now, mmmmmmm can’t wait for her to get far far away, I like her better when she’s nice.
Chloe wake up, and show us a Danmance, for a while, make at lease one couple happy.
There is no couple at all at this day, that has a good relation ship. Fighting is good in soap, but not with all of the couples.
anyway good night
Comment by Nat — September 13, 2009 #
I haven’t heard anything about that.I think TPTB are holding their spoilers real close at this point since this is such a pivotal time in the s/l. I do know that they are taping about 6-7 weeks ahead; for example, the shows last week were taped at the end of July. They may be taping her shows more ahead than that.
I would think that Rafe will be on the show then. I haven’t heard how long he is supposed to be kidnapped or whatever Meredith decides to do with him. The babyswitch is supposed to be revealed in November, and Rafe is the one who is supposed to tell Sami, so I would think he would be in the picture.
Comment by Gail — September 13, 2009 #
..the baby-switch HEATS up in November, not clears up…………people..chad still hasn’t had an opportunity to use the fact that he thinks sydney is his and mia’s baby yet….i think he’ll find out that they’re real baby “grace” died, but he’ll keep it from mia…also william has to get all bent out of shape over chad bonding with mia and the baby sydney..it’s not even close to being over…imo
Comment by StrawberryKisses — September 14, 2009 #

..helen……i don’t have inside information, i have just watched this show for the last 34 years…give or take a year or two…and this is how it’s usually done…..i mean lets face it, chad needs to use sydney to get close to mia…william needs to get bent out of shape over it………look the writer’s and the producers know that at least 15% of thier audience will leave the second that the baby switch is over…they have no choice but to drag out the baby s/l crap-o-la longer……..they took away ejami, and proceeded to cram safe down our throats..we’re not happy with them, they need to fix ejami, or start a killer new storyline that tops ejami……………i don’t think it can be done, personally…………mel-lip is good but not good enough to replace ejami…the writers are struggling to fix thier major mistake….but as you can tell it’s an up-hill climb…
Comment by StrawberryKisses — September 15, 2009 #
Unfortunately, it’s not the couples of this one and that one who bring in the high ratings. The highets ratings ever were the serial killer storyline (but then after the ratings dropped cos they said everyone was alive and it never happened anyway lol). In the lat year, the biggest ratings were when Stefano with his evil plan terrorized people at the hospital, along with hallucagenic gas, etc. That’s what gets the high ratings on this show, not the lovelives. Mel has great possibilities as a young heroine in such situations and she is fresh, unlike the 30something actresses on the show, who spit out their lines the same way again and again and again.
Comment by happyme — September 15, 2009 #
happyme— I agree. I think right now they are forming some new couples to bring on some new storylines. Having the Hernandez family come into Salem and all their background which we still don’t know, may provide some interesting s/l, as will Carley and Vivian returning.
As far as cramming SAFE down our throats, I don’t think they were crammed down our throats anymore than ejami was. EJ came into town and the first thing they did was pair him up with Sami, even tho she was engaged to someone else. He hid his true identity for what– 6 or 7 months before we found out he was really a Dirmera. (His only purpose for coming to Salem was to impregnate a Brady.) These are the same things that people have criticized SAFE for. The fact that ejami is no more is not what has caused the ratings to go down. In fact, the number of people watching DAYS is up from last year at this time. Some would like to point blame for lower ratings on no more ejami and if they don’t reunite them, then the show will fold. That is not true.
Comment by Gail — September 15, 2009 #
ITA, happyme. People can argue about couples until the cows come home but the ratings only spike when there is good suspense and action. And that’s a fact! A sign of the times!

Like most of you I am sooo tired of the Nicole baby switching s/l. I am ready for them to move on with it and start another juicy s/l. I wish Kate would fall of the face of the earth. I don’t think I have ever dispised a character more than I do her GRRR. I love Melanie, I just can’t decide on who I would love to see her end up with: Phillip, Nathan or Brady??? Oh and I hope that Stephanie follows Kate by falling off the face of the earth. I do not like her!!! She is a whinny little, I am perfect, you need to be better than everyone else BRAT. If she loves Phillip the way she says then she wouldn’t try to change every single facet of him…. I don’t really like the love triangle with Will, Mia & Chad I mean c’mon they are teenagers and they are portrayed as being in a very adult relationship….
Comment by Candi C — September 17, 2009 #
I am annoyed with Kate as well but cannot wait until she is married to Stefano and living at the mansion. And an added bonus is that she HATES Nicole haha! I didn’t predict she would knock Dan out, though. Must be losing my touch!
Comment by ANNA — September 17, 2009 #
If Kate marries Stefano and moves in the mansion,
she will be there with EJ, her ex-lover. Remember when EJ lived across the hall from Sami & Lucas.
What a mess..Send her somewhere. When today I saw Kate stomp the recorder pen..I thought maybe Daniel had another one in his pocket and that was a extra she destroyed
Comment by Helen — September 17, 2009 #
Ah, but now we get to watch Kate twist on her own petard… How delicious! She will suffer much worse as Stefano’s wife than she ever could in a prison/psych cell… And if she causes trouble for Nicole in the meantime? Or EJ – as he is also a past lover tossed aside? Ah, how delicious this will be. More fun would be if Vivian came to town and proved that Philip is NOT Kate’s, but hers? Oh, how that would be justice served cold! Lauren is up to the task of delivering this story line, as is Joe, and James, and Ari, too! How much trouble can Kate cause, or fall prey to, do you suppose…
Comment by Pat — September 17, 2009 #
it is sooo predicatable, my boyfriend has started predicting what will happen before it does! haha. But I will admit I didnt see kates head bashing coming. It pisses me off, I just want her to go down, shoulda known it wouldn’t be that easy.
Stephanie has been MIA and I love it. I want this baby switch to be over too, rafe is so close. but if he really is knocked out by meredith thats ridiculous. Are we supposed to believe in Salem all women have the power to knock out a bigger guy? I mean cmon, if this were the case why didn’t stephanie knock out little owen when she was kidnapped? Inconsistincies (sp) but oh well.
I like melanie now too and I dont want her to go to jail =[
I wish everything would stop working out for nicole, it is so annoying!

Comment by patsy — September 17, 2009 #
So is Kate going to find out about the baby switch before Sami? Who thinks so? I bet she will think it’s just great since she hates Sami. I wonder how long Rafe will be held prisoner? Is he going to finally be the one to break the s/l open?
Comment by Jill — September 18, 2009 #
I think it is nice to finally see someone be smart meaning Rafe. I have decided Mel should be with Nathan.Kate needs to be locked up.You all agree what should be done with Nicole!Hope is bugging me.Grow up! EJ why can’t he be smart…
Comment by Jenni — September 20, 2009 #
I don’t imagine you have watched the show much lately if you think Rafe is acting smart. I am not talking about his figuring out what Nicole did only after talking to his sister and Baker’s nurse. I am talking about the fact that he has no more decent job, which doesn’t seem to bother him, keeps reeating himself, etc. EJ is a smart lawyer. The only thing not smart is the fact that he was duped by Nicole, but he just does not pay much attention to what the airhead is up to, which is why he was duped by her. However, I still think Rafe and Sami are better together at the moment. NOT because he is so smart (all he does really is walk around taling to himself), but because he seems to be able to deal with her better than EJ. Of course, I could be wrong and maybe Sami and EJ will be nicely written together in the future. Nathan and Melanie are contrived, since he was so hung up on Stephanie and then one day decided he likes Melanie again. Is he a player or something?

i agree with you guys kate could take a ride somewhere chloe has been great in the coma they shoulda kept her there.. mel n phil are good together very spicy sami is the reason i watch this show i used to be a huge ejami fan but now im kinda likeing the safe duo i dunno but i think will is goin to be the one to figure it out he is the one that is really into dna and he will tell sami and nicole juss needs to go to jail or somthing just send her far away lol
Comment by leasa — September 20, 2009 #
you don’t have to have a job to be fine living on the show.How often do you see someone work? What about Sami or Chole.The men never get it right.Woman are liers and sneeky they never catch on.Rafe has not be manipulated yet and is looking for answers and figuring things out.And to you Anna i’ve been watching Day’s for 28 years only stopped when Marlena was evil that was to freeky for me.I view the people on the show different.

I think it will be interesting to see WHO finally figures out that Sydney is Sami’s baby. Not EJ, probably. Hmmm. I am thinking either Will or Rafe or Ari but of course befoe then we will be teased with Sami saying how close she feels to Syd!
Comment by ANNA — September 25, 2009 #
I kind of hope EJ is the one to tell Sami that their baby is still alive. I’m not hoping for them to reconcile but I would love for them to pair up together on a search for their daughter. I think it will redeem EJ in the eyes of the audiance. Even though Rafe already knows all the info and will certainly give it away once he is back, I would enjoy seeing Sami and EJ being able to put one and two together as they are Sydney’s real parents. I can only assume that Nicole is going to take off with Sydney and I am dying for that to start………
Comment by Beverly — September 25, 2009 #
I too hope that EJ and Sami reconcile! I would love for Nicole to take off with Sydney and EJ and Sami go to find them. That would be great!
I love that Kate married Stefano. It’s funny and twisted. Better than jail for her.
I really wish Roman would find someone…what about Carly? Is that weird? I don’t know much about Carly. Where did Caroline go?
Comment by Jill — September 25, 2009 #
I to miss Caroline. Brady Pub is not the same. I wish that Caroline and Victor would get together. I’d love to think that his love for her would change him. Hope – man it makes me so sad to see her act this way. She must be going through the “change of life” and it really is going to change her life and the life of her family. Come on. They could bring Justin back (and I am glad they did!) and not have him break Bo and Hope up. I guess this is the only way to get Carly and Bo together. I am NOT looking forward to that. Please, please bring Marlena and John back. I miss them so. And I do so want EJ and Sami to get together. I feel magic when they are on the screen together. Nicole – I feel sorry for her. Don’t want her written off – just don’t want her and EJ together. Poor Lucas – may he recover soon.
Comment by Patsy Ann — September 25, 2009 #
Is Nicole prego in real life? Lately she has been in large clothes. Looks like she had a belly. Just curious…….
Comment by BoB — September 26, 2009 #
She sure is pregnant! She starts maternity leave either in November or is it December? Anyone know exactly when? I think it’s a girl.
Comment by happyme — September 26, 2009 #
Nicole is so small still for being prego! I too noticed the clothing and camera shots to avoid her belly, but dang her arms/face/neck are all still normal sized. LUCKY! I bet Sami is cursing her under her breath. haha.
I want to know where this baby switch is going, they’ve already for the most part resolved the chloe/lucas/daniel storyline, and it started after the baby switch if I’m not mistaken? Stephanie and Stefano have been kidnapped and returned, Tony died, and we’re still waiting for this switch!
I hope Sami finds out soon, and Kate dissapears to wherever Stephanie went!
Comment by ashley — September 28, 2009 #
The baby switch storyline is already starting to unravel. I give it another couple of months but even with how long it’s dragged out, I’m sure it will have been worth the wait. At least I hope so. I’d love to see Sami and EJ back together or at least on good terms again. I’m thinking with Johnny and Ali come back from visiting John and Marlena, they will have SORAS. A spoiler indicated EJ kicks Nicole out of the house with Sydney. I guess then he thinks Sydney is not is bio daughter. That will give Nicole time to really flee in that case. hmmmm
Comment by Deb — September 28, 2009 #
My guess is Ej will kick Nicole out. She takes Sdyney. Sami finds out that Sydney belongs to her & Ej. Thanke to Rafe who excapes from Meridith.
So Rafe tell his sister & Sami. Sami tells EJ and then they are on their way to find Nicole with Sdyney..It will be real sad for Mia when she finds out that little Grace belonged to her. This is only my theory…..
Comment by Helen — September 29, 2009 #
I read that spoiler and it kind of made me sick. EJ professes to love Sydney so much and has had her now for what, 8 months, yet when he finds out she is not his, he doesn’t want anything to do with her? I can see him giving Nicole the heave ho, but an innocent baby? That just makes his image seem all the more evil to me. If the child doesn’t share his DNA, then oh, well??? That is a sad commentary on his love of family. JMO.
Comment by Gail — September 29, 2009 #
I really hope that s/l happens with Sami and EJ looking for Sydney. I love watching those two on screen together.
I also hope Daniel and Chloe are the next super couple.
Love to see more of Melanie no matter who she is with. She’s wonderful!
So what’s up with this illness that Stefano has? Is this Kate’s handy work?
Comment by Jill — September 29, 2009 #
I think he is made ill after eating cake from her.
Comment by ANNA — September 30, 2009 #
I am now enjoying Days very much, I stopped watching for a while when it was boring. But it’s picking up and I am excited to see what happens. I like the fact that EJ’s brain came back from vacation. I love Stefano and Kate’s marriage.
Mia is a very nice character, She has this wholeness about her. But I am wondering what’s gonna happen after the baby switch comes out. Is she going to be a trow-a-way character. I hope not, But that is the way it looks =(. The actor for Melanie has gotten alot better, When she first appeared on Days it made me cringe watching her, But she has came into her character very well. I hope EJ and Sami come together, I just love their chemistry.
Comment by Kala — September 30, 2009 #
And so it begins with the baby switch. FINALLY. Stephano “fainted”, I think because he probably went into a diabetic shock from eating the cake. I don’t think Kate poisoned him.
Nicole isn’t going to tell EJ that Sydney is his because she knows he will take Syd away from her so she’s going to run and then Rafe will be found and tell Sami and the search will be on.
Comment by Deb — September 30, 2009 #
BTW, I also think Ari was driving the car with Emily with it crashed and Rafe covered up for her letting everyone think he was driving. That is why he and Ari had a falling out years ago. My opinion anyway.
Comment by Deb — September 30, 2009 #
I read a spoiler awhile back that said that Sami will find out that what Rafe did was to protect his sister when Emily found out something that could have ethically endangered his career with the FBI. I think on yesterday’s show, Ari did tell Sami that b/c of what she did and Rafe’s stepping in for her, that he took a big hit personally. IMO, that was Emily’s death. Ari may have very well been driving the car, and not Rafe, but he covered for his sister b/c somehow drugs were involved– whether with her or her boyfriend, etc.
Comment by Gail — September 30, 2009 #
That makes sense Deb. Ari was definately involved.
So a spoiler said something about Kate and EJ’s affair – ewww. I hope that doesn’t start again.
Stefano would freak out if his son and his wife were messing around. Plus EJ another spoiler said that EJ and Kate don’t click – so hopefully any affair stays in the past.
That Meredith girl is wacko- whew!
Comment by Jill — September 30, 2009 #
Please, please don’t let this Meredith & Rafe thing go on much longer. Her hitting Rafe on the head is just too much.. Just a repeat of Kate & Daniel. Let’s get back to a good story line. One we have not seen before, not repeats. I think Ari was involved with Emily’s death. I’ve always thought that since the beginning. Why can’t she admit it? I hope Roman finds Meredith soon.
Comment by Helen — October 1, 2009 #
I think on Friday is when Meredith dumps Rafe’s body in the Salem River and then she is probably gone from the scene. Carly is the one who supposedly finds Rafe floating in the river and pulls him out and gives him assistance. She will end up calling BO and asking for help for Rafe and herself.
I just want SAFE back together!!!!!
Comment by Gail — October 1, 2009 #
LOVE LOVE LOVE Sami and EJ together…please make that happen again. Daniel and Chloe are great. Would love to see Brady and Nicole together. Melanie is great whatever she is doing, great comedy with her.

WOW! I am excited to see where Friday’s Days is going! What do you think Nicole is going to do next? She is corned. The actors are doing a very good job!
Comment by kala — October 2, 2009 #
have ben a fan from when show started. love this webste.
Comment by Don Magos — October 2, 2009 #
I think that Nicole is going to freak out over all this and then take Sydney and run. They have to get her off the canvass for awhile with her maternity leave coming up and all. Plus, I read a spoiler where she vows that Sami will never find out Sydney is her child. Of course, we know she will, but I think it is going to be awhile yet before the entire story comes out. Rafe will tell Sami what he knows, but EJ will still not know the entire story and I doubt Rafe and Sami will tell him.
Comment by Gail — October 2, 2009 #
Nicole is so selfish! I do like that EJ has found his brain and is on to Nicole. I too think Nicole will take Sydney and run.
I will feel really bad for Mia and Chad when they find out about Grace being thiers. Uggg, how horrible! I think Chad will blame Mia for it.
Comment by Jill — October 2, 2009 #
No, I think after what happened with Grace, Rafe and Sami will tell EJ because he can provide better resources at finding Nicole. It may be one instance where they will all come together. EJ will then beat himself up over not truly knowing that Sydney is his and at that point will have regretted kicking Nicole out of the house and having her take Sydney with.
Either that or once Stefano finds out EJ kicked them out, he will tell EJ the truth. It could go many different ways.
Comment by Deb — October 2, 2009 #
Yeah me too I hope, Sami tells EJ about Syd, and the 3 of them go seach for Nicole. That would create a triangle and they would both fight for Sami’s love. Hope EJ finds out Stephano lied to him and rejects him of his life for good.
I’m still not sure if I want to see Samie with Rafe or EJ.
Comment by Nat — October 3, 2009 #
Or what could happen is that at some point EJ will ramble on how Nicole tried to tell him that Sydney really was actually his and that is the proof Rafe is looking for in order for his theories to be correct and then they all rush off to look for her.
Comment by Deb — October 3, 2009 #
DNA testing – woo hoo!!! Hot dog, it’s all coming out!!!!!
Comment by Jill — October 5, 2009 #
I don’t think they will have a long search for Nicole/Syd if she does run. If anything, due to her real-life pregnancy, I see Syd being rescued and Nicole going in hiding (all with the help of Stefano as she can incriminate him) for awhile. Then they may have an EJ/Sami/Rafe triangle. I hope Rafe gets together with Carly…as she did save him! They are both fresh to the screen and it may work well. We all know Sami’s history and her pairing with Rafe was too soon and I felt they didn’t jive as a well received power couple that I think the writers were going for. I’m a die hard Ejami fan and I’m thrilled that the baby switch s/l is finally coming to somewhat of an end…it’s been way too long!
Comment by Alison — October 5, 2009 #
I was hoping it would be Sami that finds Rafe since she was as Grace’s gravesite which is close to the special picnic spot they shared on their date. Remember Sami fell in the water and Rafe had to go in after her. She has said several times, he is her hero and now, it is time she could be his hero!!! Still rooting for SAFE! Still love these two together…
I believe not only does EJ have this baby situation but if anything happens to Stefano, could it be that Kate would be in control since she is his step-mom now which could create a whole new ballgame in the household.
Waiting to see what is coming in the future story lines. Let’s go Safe, love you guys!!!
Comment by Donna — October 5, 2009 #
Even tho Sami may not be the one to find Rafe and rescue him, I feel they will still be together. They have each been thinking and dreaming of each other since they have been apart. Sami has told everyone she is still in love with Rafe and everyone has told Sami how much Rafe loves her. Sami still doesn’t think she is good enough for him or deserves him and IMO, that is why she is saying that she has to go on. I believe today she tells Will that Rafe is better off without her. Now, we know that isn’t true, but b/c of her lack of self-confidence, that is what she thinks. I predict that by mid to late November,they will be a couple again, stronger and more in love than ever!!
Comment by Gail — October 6, 2009 #
I don’t see Sami and Rafe together. I believe with this baby switch that it will bring Sami and EJ together. Rafe is the kinda of hero guy that would step back out of the picture so Sami and EJ can try and work together to parent their baby. I also see the writers setting things up for EJ to reject Stefano. Once EJ finds out that Stefano lied to him as well, He will become angry and “leave” the family. But as we all know that might not be long, No one leaves the family. I think the actors are doing a very good job! I am pleased to see days picking up.
The only thing I don’t get is Carly. Who is she? Could someone fill me in? Thank you =D
Comment by Kala — October 7, 2009 #

Thank you!! I didn’t even know wikipedia had that information!
Comment by Kala — October 8, 2009 #
Bring back Rafe and Sami together as a couple. They are good together.
Comment by Maria Petit — October 9, 2009 #
I don’t think Rafe will step aside so Sami can be with EJ to raise their baby. He didn’t step aside so she could be with EJ with Grace. Also, what about Sami’s other kids? She doesn’t just have kids with EJ; she has 2 with Lucas as well. Is he going to let Sami take Will and Ali and move into the Dimera mansion? I don’t think so.
Comment by Gail — October 9, 2009 #
I started watching days again when Sami was hung up on EJ but I missed the first few months when EJ first came to town. I’ve been watching clips of that time and they both really had incredible on screen chemistry back when EJ first came into the picture and I still think they should be the next “super couple”. I haven’t seen anything with any other couple that compares to that. So I am rooting for EJAMI!!
Comment by Deb — October 9, 2009 #
Oh come on EJ. I could hardly believe my ears today. EJ saying he loved Nicole. What about him being in bed with Nicole and thinking/dreaming about Sami. Have the writers forgotten so soon? EJ has to be hurt and I do believe he was giving it a good try. But I still felt chemistry even today at the hospital between him and Sami. And when he held little Johnny – wow I loved thst scene. I felt you could feel the love between all three. Come on writers, I’m looking forward to the day that we can see EJ and Sami give a “heads up” to their true feelings. And I would love to see the two of them decide to wait till they’re married to do the deed this time. How about them wanting to have an “old fashion love affair and marriage.” Wouldn’t that be a new twist for the DeMarias and for Sami?
Comment by Patsy Ann — October 9, 2009 #
I have been watching days for over 20 years.heres my prediction…lol I think that rafe is going to have amnesia and not remember that he figured the baby switch out. Sami and EJ will find comfort in eachother with rafe and nicole gone. Mel is gonna stay with nathan but cheat with phillip and Nathan will cheat with Stephanie. When stephano(the pheonix) rises yet again, he will find out about nicole leaving and ej kicking her out and finally have to explain to EJ why he is so upset that sid is gone. EJ HAS to find out that sid is his and sammis. Sammi deserves to stop crying for a couple of episodes…lol.
Comment by mimi — October 9, 2009 #
Okay here is my opinion on the last few weeks, I love the idea of Melanie and Philip as a couple, I think that those two have the same kind of wonderful chemistry together,like a classic Tony and Anna couple that could have long term staying power and appeal, I hope that the writers intend to continue in the direction of putting them together, as they are my favorite two on the show right now.I liked that Carly’s return involved the flashbacks of her earlier time on Days, I hope that this will be done for Vivian as well(I would love to see Vivian being remote controlled again on the dance floor one more time by Stefano…lol) I am not to sure how I feel yet about Lawrence’s character not being incorporated back into the show with Carly’s, I thought that Lawrence Almain would bring a terrific element to the show, so I am hoping that he may not really be dead, but may just want Carly to believe that he is. I think that Vivian’s return is going to be great, I am looking forward to seeing Vivian in action again, not so much against Carly, but against Kate,Stefano and Victor. I think that as over the top as Vivian’s character could be that( if Vivian is still to be written in the same way)she needs to have a side kick to give her character some balance, if not Ivan, I think that DR. Baker would fit well with Vivian, they are both such funny characters and I believe that they could be awesome paired together as co conspirators…..I feel for EJ, and even Nicole has garnered a little of my sympathy this week,I hated the whole baby switch, but now actually do feel a little bit bad for Nicole(which surprised me) I know that Nicole is about to lose Sydney and I do believe that Nicole truly does love the little girl, whether or not Nicole ever had the right to be her mother in the first place is a whole other matter. But I do believe that Sydney is perhaps the first person, the only person, that Nicole has ever really loved in her life and I feel a little sorry for her having lost her own baby now. I am not really happy with how EJ behaved towards Sydney (I think Sami or Nicole smacking him upside his head would have been pretty appropriate) I understand that EJ may be hurt and betrayed by Nicole(he doesn’t even know the other half of what Nicole has been doing….lol)and EJ may not have wanted to stay with Nicole, or to keep Sydney without Nicole and face a custody battle over sydney on his own(he said he was afraid of losing Sydney later on when her biological parents showed up because EJ knows the adoption could not have been legal) but to put them BOTH out without a dime, a place to stay or no apparent effort to provide one for them either, is just going a little to far,I am hoping that next week will show EJ realizing his mistake and at the very least show him trying to provide/make sure Sydney is given some type of shelter(even if he does not want to speak to Nicole) Good grief, I think that is the right thing for EJ to do, up until now EJ has been written to adore Sydney, so I am hoping that we will get the chance to see that come through while EJ is under the impression that Sydney is not his biological daughter.
Comment by Lynn — October 10, 2009 #
I think this whole thing with the baby switch is eerily familiar wasnt ej suppose to be johns kid with kristian but wound up to be susans kid with stephano. I think just like john wound up with marlena that sami will wind up with ej and nicole with kristian on a deserted island
Comment by maureen — October 11, 2009 #
If RAfe is going to have amnesia, it will be short-lived in my opinion. We know from Ali’s tweets that Galen is at Ari’s Oct. 30th and she said that she and Galen were running lines together with a lot of words in early November. From what he has been saying lately, muttering Sami’s name and that her baby is alive and calling Ari’s name when she called Meredith, I doubt amnesia will be the case.
Even if EJ loves Sami, Sami does not love EJ.She has made it clear to everyone in Salem who she is in love with and it’s Rafe. She has dreamed about him, thought about him, talked about him and this week she is going to worry about him. Maybe their was chemistry once, but that chemistry is gone. Sami has found her true soulmate and it isn’t EJ.
Comment by Gail — October 11, 2009 #
Maureen, I agree that the baby switch seemed very similar to the dynamics of the one involving EJ, John,Marlena and Kristen,(except we didn’t get the humor or antics of a “Susan” this time around) I am now hoping that if Nicole does end up on an island that Brady will be sent to rescue her…lol I like the idea of Brady and Nicole as a couple much more than I do Ari and Brady, I like the idea of someone really being able to love Nicole in spite of what she has done and for me, I think that character is Brady. I was also hoping that EJ and Sami would reconnect, I was hoping that once EJ had uncovered that Stefano was involved in Nicole’s schemes that this would be enough for EJ to break away from Stefano and start to reconnect with Sami, my hope for that is a little dashed right now as I saw the spoiler that said that EJ was the new drug kingpin….. I am not seeing the hint of EJ being on a path to redemption just yet, and that is making me a tad impatient, I love/loved EJ’s character when he was trying to win Sami’s heart, those scenes are some of my all time favorites,I think James is an awesome actor and has delivered some great performances as EJ. I would love to see him paired with Sami again so I will just keep my fingers crossed that it will eventually happen. I like how the sl’s have been moving along lately,so who knows maybe it will be sooner rather than later. If Lawrence is truly dead, maybe Rafe will be paired with Carly romantically, the spoiler said that the two of them learn more about each other, so it could be possible that Rafe may end up with a stronger connection with Carly than he has had with Sami(if Rafe decides to open up to Carly, but has not yet really with Sami) I like the idea of Rafe and Carly as a couple more than I do of a bope/Carly triangle. I did like Bo and Carly when Hope was supposed to be dead, now I just think that Bo and Hope should be left alone and Carly will be free for Rafe to love. Maybe Ari should be paired with Lucas and Gabby (Ari and Rafe’s little sister) could be paired with Will when she arrives in Salem…..
Comment by Lynn — October 12, 2009 #
I’m getting so anxious waiting for Ejami to be a couple. Honestly, it’s what makes me read up on the spoilers and follow Days anymore. I don’t have much interest in the other sl’s other than these 2 and the idea that they might be together again. Maybe that’s what the writers want — so like most shows they make the power couple wait and wait and wait to finally be together. It’s just so frustrating!! Or maybe I should give up! Anyhow, I don’t feel a shred of sympathy for Nicole. No-one who has a miscarriage then fakes pregnancy, buys a baby from an illegal baby market and switches someone elses biological child deserves sympathy in my book. It’s just ridiculous.
Comment by Alison — October 12, 2009 #
I really think sami will wind up with Ej just a gut feeling, maybe thinking he’s changed and later finding out he hasn’t. If Brady finds out about Sydney I dont think he would want anything to do with Nicole anymore. I wonder if ej knows about his past with Susan and Kristian. Who does he think his mother is. He has never mentioned it. You would think he would with this whole storyline.
Comment by maureen — October 12, 2009 #
I don’t know about anyone else,but I was practically screaming at the t.v. for EJ to hold Sydney yesterday….lol I know that the reason that EJ did not want to is to try and protect himself from losing a daughter(he thinks) for a third time, but I still did not like it. I wish that EJ would have held Sydney in spite of this and shown that a parent’s love is truly unbreakable. Although I did feel some sympathy for Nicole and Sydney(who is innocent and will go through a stage of confusion when she is no longer with Nicole) I think that Nicole allowing EJ to still believe that Sydney is an adopted child is just cruel and is going to dig Nicole a hole so deep that Nicole will never be able to climb out from underneath all of the dirt that she has buried herself under… it is now evident that Nicole’s explanation for doing what she did out of love for EJ is not the reason for Nicole’s actions at all,I do not think that anything Nicole did was excusable in the least and this just compounds it further, but I did feel some sympathy for a woman (in spite of her wrong) who was going to lose a child that she has been raising(even if I wanted that to happen all along)knowing how attached Nicole and Sydney are to each, I think that Nicole is showing what I wished for EJ to show… that d.n.a does not matter, a parent’s love for a child is unbelievably strong and a child not of your blood can completely become a child of your heart.(even though Nicole did not/does not have the right to Sydney,Nicole is trying to hold onto her with all she has got, I want to see EJ do the same and I am still hoping to see this from EJ this week) I hope EJ will show this still in his confrontation with Chad. I know Nicole has wronged Sami and Sami does not know that Sydney is her child, but I did not like that Sami could not wait to turn Sydney over to EJ and Nicole last week, so I hope that if Sydney and Nicole do indeed stay with Sami that Sami is shown to interact with Sydney in a much better way than that. Maureen, I hope your gut feeling is right, I want to see EJ and Sami back together also, I also think that Brady will be angry at Nicole, I just hope in the end(after Nicole has went through some serious counseling..lol) that Brady can forgive her and the two will end up together. I think that EJ has mentioned Susan as being his mother on the show before in a conversation with Nicole, but that was a while back. I also would think that this would all of came up once EJ knew that Nicole had faked her pregnancy, it would be a normal comparison. I personally wish that it would be explained how EJ ended up with Stefano as a child,remember that Stefano believed that Kristen had EJ and that Susan was the one in the harem? The last time anyone saw baby Elvis he was in England with Susan and Edmund and Susan was pretending to Stefano that she was Kristen over the phone and was going to disappear with the baby. I know we are talking about all knowing Stefano, but I would like to know how Stefano ever got Susan to agree?
Comment by Lynn — October 13, 2009 #
On another note, I just read the rumor involving Chad’s parentage, I think that Chad as Bo and Carly’s child is completely unbelievable for several reasons:1. Carly could not have more children(I know this has never stopped this type of sl before, but still)2. Carly would have never of left Bo for Lawrence if she was pregnant with Bo’s child,Carly would have told BO.3. Didn’t Carly leave soon after being buried alive by Vivian(after she was found and recovered her memory)so the time line of Carly being intimate with Bo and conceiving a child would be way off, the baby(Chad) would have to be Lawrence’s.4. Carly would never give a child up for adoption after having her son Nicky stolen away by Vivian at birth, no matter who the father was Carly would not give her child away, che wanted another one to badly.5. If Lawrence tried to behind Carly’s back, there is no way Carly would fall for the same trick twice, she would have had armed guards, video camera’s and the whole viewing public there to prevent another child from being stolen from her. I think Chad would be better off as a biological child of Marlena and John (if Marlena could give birth to Rex and Cassie-Roman and Kate’s children, why not Chad, her’s and John’s while in Stefano’s prison? This would give Sami and Brady another family member/sibling in Salem and it could tie in to the fact that Chad’s sister was the one to love and care for his daughter while Chad’s brother was the one to help Nicole suceed with her plans, might really make for some interesting family dinners…..lol

So, how many different women has Bo been with, just so I can figure out how many kids he’s gonna end up with???? First Chelsea, now Chad, who’s gonna be next?
Comment by April — October 13, 2009 #
Can’t see Sami and EJ together anytime soon. Sami has stated she loves Rafe and wants him to be safe and happy. She is thinking and dreaming of him and he is doing the same– even tho he is critically ill. She is worried that something is wrong with the disappearance and is going to get people together to find him. I don’t see her thinking about EJ, dreaming about him, or anything. IMO, EJ is turning farther and farther over to the dark side and Sami is doing just the opposite– going more and more to the good side.

I would LOVE Chad to be Bo’s kid!
Comment by ANNA — October 13, 2009 #
I cant stand Chad he used the baby to get Mia back rather than look for the kid on his own. Poor Mia when she finds out that Grace was hers. She will be very upset with Nicole along with everyone else.
Comment by maureen — October 13, 2009 #
So somebody explain to me the whole Rex and Cassie – Roman/Marlena/Kate situation! That was during my hiatus from days.
Comment by Deb — October 13, 2009 #
Well I just read that in real life, Carly and Lawrence are married and have 2 boys! HUH! Not only that but he play JT Cornell on Passions. Now I thought he had looked familiar but then was looking a bit rough at the same time.
Comment by Deb — October 13, 2009 #
Rex and Cassie came to salem in an egg which belle and shawn found. They thought at first they were aliens. But it eventually came out that it was Stephano who emplanted Romans eggs in Kate and they were their kids. I think Marlena at one point and time thought they were her kids and became connected with them.
Comment by maureen — October 14, 2009 #
Cassie and Rex came down to earth on an egg believe it or not. Shawn and Belle found them;thinking they were aliens. Anyway it winds up they were Kate and Romans children,Stephano gave kate romans sperm,like he did to Susan. Marlena at one time thought they were her kids.
Comment by maureen — October 14, 2009 #
I thought that Stephano implanted Marlena with Kate and Romans fertalized egg and that she was the one who gave birth to them but that Kate and Roman were the actual parents.. I may be wrong though- it’s been a while since that storyline.. I’ll have to look it up!
Comment by Jill — October 14, 2009 #
Yep- found it on wikipedia..
“By 2002 John and Marlena had sorted out their problems and decided to renew their vows. The couple were happy until Tony Dimera returned from the grave, and the Gemini Twins, Rex and Cassie, seemingly fell from the sky. Marlena counseled Tony, as she attempted to unravel the truth about the twins’ origin. It was finally revealed that Marlena had given birth to the twins during the time she was in a coma. She came to believe that she and Tony were their parents, though it turned out she was only their surrogate mother, as Kate and Roman were their biological parents.”

I did not post those last two comments. There must be another Jill posting comments…so I will use my alias.
So Chad is Bo and Carly’s kid…hmmm interesting. I like him. He seems like Bo.
Comment by Jillna — October 14, 2009 #
Oh good grief. So Vivian gives birth to Philip and Marlena gives birth to these 2? Sounds like a Passions episode. LOL So Kate has, what….6 kids total??
Comment by Deb — October 14, 2009 #
I love Sami and Rafe! Please don’t break them up-like you usually do.
Comment by Anne McRedmond — October 14, 2009 #
I don’t know why everyone thinks chad is bo and carly’s kid, its just a rumor. I doubt it. I hate Chad he is very errogant.He used his daughter to keep seeing mia rather than look for her. (Sentence Deleted). I hope sydney winds up with sami and poor Mia what will she do to nicole when she finds out grace is gone
Comment by maureen — October 15, 2009 #
Spoilers say EJ denouces Stefano. I wonder if that is when he finds out Stefano lied about Sydney and so now the jig is all up!!
Comment by Deb — October 15, 2009 #
I see in the spoilers that Rafe will be indebted to Carly for saving his life. Yes! Maybe they will then get together, which would allow for the possibility of EJ and Sami to connect again! Sami also nursed Rafe back to good health, which is when they started to become something more. I would like these two (Carly & Rafe) together. I think they would be a new, freshly needed couple to Salem. However, initially I’m sure she was brought back to stir things up between Bope. Speaking of…her wanting out or space or whatever is very weak. The s/l just is, in my opinion.
I just can’t hardly wait for Sami to find out Syd is hers. Moreover, that she is hers and EJs. They have a such a connection and having 2 chidren is even more reason they should be together! Time. I need to be really patient I guess!
Comment by Alison — October 15, 2009 #
I really hate it every time Sami says she is not sorry for what she did to Elvis. How could any real woman not care that she caused a man who loves his family to not even know his own daughter. To deny his daughter of feeling the love from him. In spite of Elvis’ questionable qualties in other areas he desperately knows how to love – and Sami has hurt him so much. She should never have told him – if she was not sorry for her did. I do hope she begins to feel guilty for what she did and even starts to realize that because of Elvis’ upbringing (??? – clearly without a mother)that Elvis is not completely to blame. She has betrayed him as surely as his father and lack of mother has betrayed him. Let her compassion remind her of her love for him. Come on writers!!! Give Elvis some real love. And HOPE O HOPE. How foolish can you be? I feel so sorry for Bo and their daughter. (Sentence deleted) If the writers want to bring back some real people bring John and Marlena, How about Jack and Jennifer. We could really get some real people back.
Comment by Patsy Ann — October 16, 2009 #
I too was disappointed to read that while Ej is visibly hurting Sami kicks him when he’s down and says she would do it all over again. (Meaning, lie to Ej about having his child). That was harsh and uncalled for. I truly hope this wasn’t to set-up a s/l of Rafe telling Sami the truth and them trying to keep yet again another one of his baby’s away from him. (sentence deleted) Anyhow, I hate to admit it but Sami shows NO love for Ej anymore. I don’t see it on screen anymore. So sad.
Comment by Alison — October 16, 2009 #
I’ve been wondering if Nicole is pregnant in real live? I have noticed she has been wearing layers of clothes and in black a lot. I agree Hope is being very foolish, can’t she see that Bo is very much in love with her. If Hope doesn’t come home soon, I see Carly coming between Bo and Hope. When oh when is the truth going to come out about Sydney? I want Rafe to be the one to tell Sami the truth about her baby, and maybe they can go to Will and Mia the sad truth about their baby girl.
Answer: Indeed Arianne Zucker is very pregnant, almost on maternity leave now
Comment by Tammy — October 16, 2009 #
Oh boy!! Chad talking about he is the Father of little Sydney when actually she is Wlll’s little sister. What a mess!! BRING BACK MARLENA & JOHN BLACK. It is just not the same without them. I’m sure they will take a cut in pay in order to return to their roles.

Sammi looks great!I hope she get’s back together with EJ.Still hate Kate!I’m so glad the baby switch is unfolding keep it comming.:)
Comment by Jenni — October 17, 2009 #
Well, I guess we have awhile to go yet before we get to see EJ come to his senses regarding Sydney….. I held out hope that EJ’s possessive Dimera streak would kick in after the confrontation with Chad (biological child or unknowing biological child..LOL) in regards to Sydney. I have some hope that my favorite EJ is about to make a reappearance soon though if the spoiler about EJ renouncing Stefano is true….. I believe that what Stefano has done to EJ can finally be the last eye opening experience that EJ will need to suffer through at Stefano’s hands. I hope that EJ reconsiders the path that he has been on and decides to make a change in the way he has been living his life. I also dislike the way that Sami has treated EJ in regards to Grace, I hope that once Stefano is out of EJ’s main orbit Sami can start to trust and believe in EJ again, maybe then we will get to see Sami express some TRUE remorse for her unfair behavior, I don’t think it is right to kick someone when they are already hurting,even if that someone is being a butthead(I.E. EJ Dimera) I would love to see Sami and EJ reconnect and this split with Stefano maybe just the tiniest baby step in that direction(I think it will be a long time in coming,but I hope that I am wrong) I know EJ has been acting foolish when it comes to Sydney but and I know I am probably in the minority when I say that I still would prefer for Sydney to remain with EJ over Sami. I want Sami to know that Sydney is her child, but I would like to watch EJ raise his daughter full time. I do not want Sami to start another tug of war with EJ over another child that is so not appealing to me. I would rather watch EJ come to terms with his wrongs(Sydney,Stefano,Nicole) and make an honest effort to devote himself to raising his little girl outside of the Dimera code, I loved watching John as a single father to Carrie,Sami and Eric when they were younger, I think that the show could use a sl like that again, it was so touching to see how much love John had for the children that he was raising and vice versa.I know that James has the acting ability to pull this type of sl off, and if the show does not happen to reunite Sami and EJ I think that this leaves the door open for EJ to find real love(not the Chloe kind) with someone else if EJ learns the true meaning of sacrifice(as only a parent really could..lol) my first choice is still Sami but I am just trying to look for a back up plan in case that does not pan out…..lol
Comment by Lynn — October 17, 2009 #
I would like EJ and Sami together, and please hurry and have them both find out that Sydney is their daughter. This is draging out much to long.
This deal with Chad is boring, and by the way he needs to (DELETED) or grow up. Mia is a doll and needs to remain with Will; they both are great together. Nicole is getting worse than Kate. I can’t wait to see Vivian. She was a lot of fun when she was on before. I also, miss John and
Marlena. I wish they could come back.
I like Rafe, and want him to find a new love,
but not Sami.

Comment by Jo — October 17, 2009 #
I sincerely doubt that we will see Carly and Rafe together. I believe I read that she has been brought in to be an interloper in the BO/Hope relationship. Just b/c someone is indebted to another person does not mean they will be in a relationship with that person. Heck, if someone saved my life like Carly saved Rafe’s, I would be indebted to that person, too, but it doesn’t mean I am going to fall in love with them or want to be with them. Rafe and Sami were falling in love before she nursed him back to health, that was just an added thing that made them both realize how much they loved and cared for each other. It was a turning point in their relationship.
IMO, Sami has every reason not to feel guilty about not telling EJ about Grace. She was afraid for her daughter’s life and after what she found out about EJ putting out hits on Philip and kidnapping her cousin, Stephanie who can blame her. Who would want to put a child in that situation? I would love to see Sami get custody of Sydney and Johnny. Those children deserve to be brought up in a loving home with parents who love them and put them first before anything or anyone else. That person is not EJ
Comment by Gail — October 19, 2009 #
I have a feeling that Ej will find out the whole truth before Sami does. Will he keep it a secret for revenge on Sami?
Comment by maureen — October 20, 2009 #
I also miss John and Marlena and Kristian they were great together
Comment by maureen — October 20, 2009 #
Sorry Gail, but IMO Sami has not proved to be such a good mother. I don’t see her putting her children first before anyone else, not first before her own lusts. She moved a man in with her and her children, not even really knowing the man, being warned of the man (true or not, Sami doesn’t know) not to even take in the moral issue. No I don’t see Sami as a Saint. And I am quiet disappointed about her unforgiving attitude of EJ but completely forgiving Nicole for numerson things!!! Surely Sami hasn’t forgotten the many, many devious things she has done – yet she can condeme EJ. Who is this Sami? I don’t know anymore. Still I ieep hoping that she can see the truth and let EJ TEACH HER HOW TO LOVE. John and Marlena, Jack and Jennifer – come on home, we’re waiting for you. Victor can you love Caroline enough to change? Would love to see some older people (Maggie, too) be in love.
Comment by Patsy Ann — October 20, 2009 #
Patsy, IMO, Sami is a good mother. She is not a saint by any means, and she has done some bad things in her life, but she has admitted it and taken responsbility for them. She has changed and is trying to be more independent and mature. She is putting her kids before herself and her wants and needs. I guess I don’t get the part about her “lusts”. She and Rafe did know each other before he moved in with her. They lived together in the safe house for months and then were a couple for 5 or 6 months after that. She and Rafe never made love with the kids around. I remember that he left after the first time b/c he didn’t think it was right for them to be together when Will was coming home. They never were “together” when any of the kids were home.
As far as not knowing about Rafe and his past, what do we really know about EJ’s past? When he came to Salem, he said his name was EJ Wells, which was a lie, and that he was a British race car driver. Other than that, he said nothing. It was 7 months later that Sami learned who he really was– EJ DIMERA, son of Stefano, who was brought to Salem to impregnate a Brady. When he was in England did he have a girlfriend,fiance, wife, kids, commit any crimes, etc.? Sami was married to the guy and has 2 kids with him and doesn’t know ANY of that.
Sami is forgiving of Nicole b/c she doesn’t know the whole story. And I don’t blame her for the way she is acting toward EJ. I think she told him that his anger gets in the way of seeing things clearly and all he does is want revenge. Nicole doesn’t want revenge. I am not at all saying what she did is in anyway right, but her motives were not the same.
Just wait until Sami finds out that Sydney is hers and EJ’s and he kicked his own daughter out of the house. I doubt she will be forgiving or pleased at his actions. All of a sudden it will be OK for Sydney to be with him b/c she is his blood daughter. What an opposite to Rafe who loved Grace unconditionally even tho she was no relation to him.
Comment by Gail — October 20, 2009 #
That’s a great idea Lynn. I hope to see EJ come around and raise his child too. I hope Sami sees this in EJ too and gets off her high horse. I love Sami, but she doesn’t have much room to talk bad about the things EJ has done. Look what she(Stan) did to John – not so long ago. OUCH!
Comment by Jillna — October 20, 2009 #
I agree w/you Patsy Ann. I don’t know where they are taking Sami’s character; I’m not sure they know either. She is my favorite female actress on the show but the s/l is not in tune with who she is. It doesn’t make sense. I am a fan of EJ. He does good and he does bad things. So did Sami. All in all, he is protrayed to be a good father. When she was first pregnant and didn’t tell him, it was because he was with Nicole and that hurt her. The cover-up was done purposely b/c she was stubborn and acting selfish, which at the time was Sami. Then the writers took it way south with the baby switch s/l and here we are about a year later still with the uncovered truth. Anyhow, I would love to see Shawn and Belle back. The others not so much. It was getting too much to see adults my parents age, such as, Marlena and John getting hot and heavy onscreen. Honestly, it made me turn away. They are icons to the show but every good thing must come to an end and I understand that something had to give in order for Salem to get a fresher look. I’m not asking for much. I just want Ejami!
Comment by Alison — October 20, 2009 #
Hey, Gail
Still love to read your comments. I agree with you. I would love for Sami to get custody of Johnny and Sydney because if she doesn’t, they will grow up learning and using the Dimera ways.
Seems to me, everything is either EJ’s or Stefano’s way or no way. Would we like someone with that type of control on the women they say they love and throwing child like temper tantrums? I hope not.
Sami sure understands so many things so much better now. She has been there done that… which make so many of us understand what others may be going through and we can better ourself and help others by out past experiences. (We do know that sometimes our past may come back to haunt us but this to can be overcome)…
I know Rafe and Sami have enough love and
