DAYS: Friday's Episode

[Pest Spray]

I thought I heard that John said something that indicated he was suspicious of "Tony".

Personally, I hate that. Stefano's obsession with Marlena was there from the 80s Stefano, and it was one of his redeeming qualities. The other being his love for his children.

Nick and Chelsea are boring me to tears right now. And I hate it. What was so unique about them is just gone. Makes me sad. Now it's all about who gets to be the bitch that day.

What did John & Marlena do to upset you this time? Act happy? And wow, thank you. Nice to know you just want me to disappear. They're on what - once a week, minimal airtime and don't have a storyline. How nice that you can't actually allow a fanbase that's been around for 21 years to enjoy the few moments the actors are able to create. It's certainly not in the script, and after years of him working against us, just let us enjoy it.

even if the writing is bad for chick, I still love seeing BB and RM work the scenes cause they really do have great chemistry together.

Fantastic episode today. One of the best for a week that has been okay so to say.

I might be in the minority, but today I really enjoyed the stuff involving Las Vegas. The story is growing on me, and we're seeing different sides to Jeremy and Stephanie lately. Of course they're still my least favorite characters on the show.

I was so happy to see EJ and Lucas working together to find Sami. That's soemthing I thought would never happen, but it did!

What a nice twist, the "Tony" we saw today was Andre, according to the previews.

[Pest Spray]

They do, but the writing is so bad.

J&M were the best part of today's show for me. Even though their scenes were short they light up the room together. Thanks a lot for wishing the J&M fans to disappear.

[ArizonaDaze]

I just want to say thanks for all the input on today's show as we here in Phoenix didn't get Days due to a horrendous news helicopter crash that killed all four people on board the two helicopters. Sometimes life is more important than a soap opera.

[Days4Life]

I was just reading a news story about this--it was a terrible tragedy. Really puts things into perspective, doesn't it?

[DaysFanJean]

I heard that on the news, too and feel so sad for everyone involved. It is a horrific tragedy.

I don't think the writing for Chelsea and Nick is all that bad. Nick and Chelsea are still on our screen and there is a bit of angst going on here. Actually, I think there should be years before they get really serious. It's like Chelsea said...she needs to finish college, get a career, learn about life first. Nick needs allow her to do that with his blessings.

For the poor J&M fans, I just don't enjoy porno so their constantly referring to each other as sex toys insults my priorities in relationships. Gross.

[sarap]

I really don't care whether or not you like J&M, but I don't like being told to disappear. As for them referring to each other as sex partners(and I no way agree that it's the top priority in their relationship), that's all I've seen the TSK crew do and talk about....constantly. Bope have had their share of sex talk recently too, but of course that's "cute". J&M are lucky if Sheffer gives them two minutes of screen time talking to each other (versus just propping every other story), so as a J&M fan, I at least have something to look forward to in those fleeting moments.

[Pest Spray]

Chelsea is being taken back to where she was pre-Nick, and I hate it. She was spunky but still trying to be good when she first fell for Nick, and Nick was himself. I don't have as much a problem with Nick as I do Chelsea.

I don't enjoy porno either, thank you very much. They referred to each other as sex toys? When? That's not the Days Of Our Lives I'm watching. They're two happily in love people, who have just been kept apart for months, they have a healthy desire for each other and they're adorable together.

[PhoenixRising05]

I don't mind J&M at all when Dee doesn't make those annoying noises and when Drake doesn't overplay it. Carolyn Hinsey made mention of it in her SOD column that J&M need to be onscreen but that all the sex sounds are making her sick of them. I love J&M too and I want them to be loving but I think Dee and Drake need to tone it down a bit. I also didn't like how Marlena went from worried about Sami to being all passionate with John and following him to his car for a quickie like nothing ever happened. That was a writer's mistake but I am surprised Dee and Drake didn't say something because it was odd and out of character IMO.

Whatever the case, part of me still likes Marlena without John but I still like them together and recognize their importance. The way they acted last Thursday and Friday was perfect but yesterday was way too much IMO.

[Pest Spray]

I don't see what was wrong about it. They'd found where Sami was, John had done a good thing and she wanted to let him know how wonderful she thought he was. And there was nothing said about a quickie in the car. There were no "noises" in the scene. They came through an angst filled time worrying about Sami, didn't have to worry anymore and share a few quick kisses.

[KBT]

I used to be one of Deidre Hall's biggest fans, but ever since the SSK SL in 2003 she has been just an average actress IMO. Her constant hamming of scenes and acting like a hug from John gives her an orgasm drives me up the wall. No way acts like that in real life, much less a couple who has been together for as long as J&M have.

[PhoenixRising05]

The know where Sami is but is she back yet? No. As far as Marlena knows, she is still in danger so her being all lovey-dovey with John is out of character. There were noises too. Not as much as usual but they were there. John told Marlena to "save it for the car" which IMO implies he wants a quickie. I don't mind them being affectionate or loving. I want them to be. I just want them both to turn it down a notch and for Dee and Drake to stop overacting, which KBT alluded to. They are better then this. I know they are. It's not the writing either. Last Fall, they still did the same things at times only not as much. They just need to tone it down. That's all I am saying.

If the writers would give them a story line where they're actually doing something, we wouldn't have to see all the make out scenes. Just a thought...
