I hate whats been done to her character to accomdate him. She is too sugary sweet and victim like now. She's been morphed into this heroine that needs saving him he as her white knight. That doesnt work with Nicole IMO. She should be a scheming bitch, causing trouble, beign selfish and out for number 1. She cant be that character with Rafe. I cant see him putting up with that especially coming after Sami. She needs someone that challenges her, that brings out her fire, not suppress it.

Oh IA and that is precisely what I enjoy about Nicole's character. She is a vixen, albeit with a core of vulnerability. I don't think she should change to accomodate Virtuous Rafe. I should say that I have liked Rafe & Nicole from the beginning, back when he was trying to entrap her at the Cheatin' Heart. He knew exactly what he was messing with, and so did she. I would prefer it if Nicole was using this pregnancy as leverage against EJ and the DiMeras. But I still like that Rafe and her have this friendship.

Ugh! I just FFed through Abe and Lexie reconciliation scenes. Can we bring back Brandon?!

ETA: Cheap, who are the couple in your avatar? I have been meaning to ask for ages.

Rafe didN't make Nicole weak shes been like this for months. All she's been is EJs sex toy for how long now? Her reconciling and forgiving EJ for all the crap he pulled with her sister and causing her mothers death made her look weak and stupid. It would have been far more believable had she returned to him for the status and visibility being his wife would have given her versus that schmoopy crap. She could have found out about his blackmailing Will and used that against him or to her advantage.

That said I think Rafe and Nicole work as friends and potential romantic partners far better than Rafe and Carrie do. I'd actually prefer to see them scheming together as a matter of revenge towards Sami and EJ vs Rafe having to save her from terrible EJ again.

Isn't that exactly what she did? She wanted to be his manager so she could have a hook up with the Mayor and be in the "in circle" of power that EJ has, she just later fell in love with him again. She was initally all about business and using their marriage as a way to have an in with EJ and make him look good in their political race.

That's not in Rafe's character though which is why Nicole/Rafe don't work. Virtuous Rafe must always be right is white - at least on paper. That's what they were attempting with Carrie/Rafe and it fit because both are supposed to be "good" characters. I still don't understand how we are supposed to see him as a good person when he completely threw his baby sister under the bus so he could sleep with Sami but whatever. Nicole would have to be completely whitewashed (as she was in the first babyswitch) in order to accommodate him as a viable love interest. I personally think both Nicole and Rafe have outlived their usefulness if this is all the show could come up with. The only thing that is coming out of this is that EJ gets another kid, even though he doesn't need another one.

I just remember Gina owned it and it was inscribed with the letter G, then everyone spent an entire damn year searching for the compact and looking at the compact and talking about the compact compact compact. It was the original "my mother's cameo."

    • Keith D Robinson is 49. Maurice Johnson is 46.
    • I hope they give him more to do than just be a prick as you say. I can see how viewers would like him because the actor is so charming despite the character being such an absolute pain.    I would agree. And there was also the undercurrent of Raven and Draper sort of flirting with each other. The actors play that attraction and it worked so well in that scene. 
    • Daniel Cosgrove is PERFECT as the sleezy politician. This might be my favorite role of his. All of these people keeping Kristina’s secret is so annoying. I really want her to pay.
    • What did happen to Beth between 86 and 89? Did she have amnesia?
    • I actually thought he came off as younger. It's so hard to buy Martin as Nicole and Ted's son unless they had him when they were 12.
    • @chrisml Isn't remarkable that, on a soap whose brand is built on twists and mysteries, that Raven's last straw was as simple as Logan saying that she was incapable of loving Jamey.  In the episode when Raven exit's and leaves Jamey with April, I can remember feeling the subtext that Raven is also trying to talk herself into leaving him behind.  There's so much in that little scene.  She's trying to stick it to Logan for saying she was a bad mother.  She's both granting April's wish, and damning her with the old adage of being careful what she wished for.  And, she's hinting to Draper that she's going to boff his father. It remains my favorite scene, and it still blows my mind that was not the end of that episode.  
    • Oh lord not Drew just figured out it was both Nina and Portia that set him up. Willow WILL never leave this man. Ric taking the case purely just to spite Sonny is [!@#$%^&*].ing hilarious.
    • And in addition to Patti being de-aged, she was no longer a nurse, divorced from Len(fair enough) and her two children were not seen and barely mentioned. So basically she was a totally new character. For newer viewers it didn't matter but any loyal viewers would have been wondering about all the changes with Patti. Sarah Whiting always puzzled me. The writers finally decide to acknowledge Jo's family and do so by making up a never mentioned adopted teen. Why not just bring in Tracey, Jo's actual grandaughter? As for Liza, perhaps it would have been wise to rest the character when Sherry left. They were big shoes to fill and her Liza was so identified with Travis. I don't recall what was going on in the story at that time but if they knew Sherry was leaving, write it so Liza would leave town to care for an ailing Janet and take a breather with the character for a few months.
    • Ahh interesting. Yeah, that's sad for A-M. I will say, he and Nick became fast friends when Susan started working at Spaulding. A-M/Lucy/Nick/Susan had a lot of double dates in those 7 months. A-M was Nick's best man at his wedding to Susan, which now that I think about it, is odd that he wouldn't have considered Fletcher. I remember those two were so close at the paper, and even living together with Ben. Once Tangie left SF, Nick left the paper, and Fletcher/Holly were rarely seen... so I guess they felt that friendship wasn't shown often enough anymore (which again, lazy writing).
    • I honestly don't think Alan-Michael ever really had a friend on the show. Maybe Cameron or Samantha, but otherwise... *Cameron was a high school friend who ended up dating teenage Dinah after she broke up with A-M. Samantha is Phillip's biological sister, who A-M treated like a sister. Interestingly enough, they were born the same week on the show in 1981, but A-M ends up being older than her when she returns to town in '89.
