Oh I wouldnt say that. He most definetly hated her when she kept Will away from him and lied about him abusing the kid. The fact that they were ever able to get over that, fall in lvoe and get married was a miracle in and of itself bc of the intense hatred and contempt both characters had for each other in the late 90s

I guess its how you see it. They both definitely hurt each other but I never saw intense hatred. I guess maybe its because the show kept their connection and ended them somewhat amicably. I always felt they knew each other so well it was bound to circle back. Lucas of course was never really a knight in shining armor either as much as people insist Sami and EJ were alike, Lucas did his share of lying and scheming also.

I started watching around the 03' era and forward and everything I've seen from Lucas is virtually the same stuff I've seen with Sami with both Austin and Rafe. Sami does something Lucas doesn't like, he yells at her, acts like she would never have ever done something like this, is appalled by her behavior, scorns her with a moral tirade and then walks out on her and looks for a woman who has more moral character then her (i.e. Carrie, Nicole, Chole, others). That all points to me that Lucas doesn't know a thing about Sami if he is consistently shocked by her behavior, depravity and general immoral/amoral attitude.

Brandon and EJ seem to be the only characters she was paired with who actually understood that Sami was a self-destructive sociopath who did whatever possible to get what she wants. All the other men in her life were tricked and convinced through her lies and machinations that she was this misunderstood girl with a heart of gold, strong moral fiber included and that was never the case. Hence why her men always look like complete and utter fools once the lights finally come on and they see who she truly is.

The thing is I keep hearing how perfect EJ was for sociopath Sami which fails for 2 reasons

- Sami was turned into the weepy show victim upon his arrival

- When EJ and Sami were given a legit shot in 2008, EJ was "reformed" into a sniveling wimpy weak Sami purseholder and the writing for him progressively worse.

Forget about EJ accepting who Sami is she never accepted who he was

I actually have no couple preference for any of them. I'd just like to see them improve EJ's characterization along with Nicoles

I don't either. I am just tired of Sami's love interests acting completely brand new when it comes to who she is and having to witness the same scene concerning her and her "wrong ways" over and over again. Surely people know her by now it's been 20 plus years of the same story being told over and over again. We just witnessed the blow out with Rafe and I am so not excited to watch it with Lucas for the fourth or fifth consecutive time. I'd rather see her with someone who accepts her foolishness because it will never work otherwise.

Omg. It is so great to have Lucas Roberts back. I LOVED his scenes with Sami, they were adorable as usual wub.png They've still got it & I hope they get back together icon1.gif

If they make Ian his father, I will be rolleyes.gif Why do I have that feeling?

Everything with Sami this past week was great IMO.

LOL at pressed, jealous Gabi. I kinda love it. Melanie and Chad all the way, they are still cute. But what's up with Chad's hair? e5028380.gif

So sorry I was not able to make a DAYS thread graphic in time sad.png

    • Awesome Yep, you can hook up a VHS player to a smart TV. Alternatively, Amazon sells some VHS to Digital converters that you can use to directly connect the VCR's AV cables  to a USB on a laptop or PC. They cost about 20 bucks. Any questions or need help, DM me!
    • -- "The role of Ted Richardson is now being played by...." I love that throwback to soaps from yesteryear. I know we don't want BTG to be our grandmother's soap, but sometimes Grandma's soaps had it right. -- I was FULLY prepared to dislike Keith D. Robinson as Ted, and I even went through things in my mind that I could say because I was fine with Maurice Johnson and felt bad for him.     However, Robinson was awfully good, especially for Day 1. He's a different Ted, but he's a good actor -- natural and real. People saying Gates "should have gone older" are head-scratchers since Robinson is older than Johnson. -- I expected Bill to be tougher than he was with Dana, THE worst mother of the year on soaps. -- Kat went toe-to-toe in those scenes with Dana. We're all in love with Ambyr/Eva, but Colby/Kat is also killing it. -- Derek and Ashley? I'm turning on Ashley, who can't even pretend to like Derek, let alone love him. Her annoyance with him is overboard, and I'm also annoyed with the show portraying Derek as a Neanderthal -- to the point of putting "Neanderthal" in his dialogue. Every single thing he does annoys Ashley, which makes me wonder what she ever saw in him. I want him away from her. -- Seeing Derek and Ashley in that bed was hilarious. It looks like a single, not something for two grown adults. -- Ashley and Andre are still a no for me -- a big no. I see no reason why he'd be infatuated with her. None. At least Andre got a smile from her, which she didn't have for Derek, even when he wanted them to get a bigger place. Derek, please dodge the bullet.
    •   I LOVED Hennig’s Stephanie. AK is Stephanie in name only. Stephanie was never boring to me.
    • July 2012, Abe organized a gala that was an autism fundraiser in Lexie's honor.  This was the huge event everyone was attending (except Gabi and Melanie in the tunnels).. -- when the gas explosion occurred and the building collapsed.  The "Daysaster" cliffhanger before the Olympics break.
    • I think maybe Andre is subconsciously looking for a caretaker/nurturer in his life to replace his parents. That would explain his attraction to both Ashley (nurse) and Dani (older woman/his aunt's sister). I don't see any chemistry between Ashley and Andre though. In fact Andre and Derek had more chemistry in the pasta night episode than either of them have ever had with Ashley.
    • My only recollection of Ms Felder in Tom Lissanti's book is that she was not well liked backstage, and nobody was aware of rumors that she was fired because of her looks, including the network executive interviewed for the book.
    • a) you would not be sorry, but  b) full episodes from the first half of '89 are hard to find. 
    • Ya see..., that's why I can't watch this show on my own!

      I'm ripping it for being dumb, meanwhile half the episode goes over my head.  Hello pot, I'm kettle.
    • When put very plainly it wouldn't make sense, but you could say that Ashley would prefer someone that can pay his own way without sharing expenses and has more than a working class experience. Andre might want someone more stable and level headed. Of course the issue is that the characters don't match despite the plausibility of a connection making s
    • I am fine with no one mentioning Bob-ette again.  It's frustrating not ever knowing what was up with him truly or why we wasted so much time on that to never get a conclusion.  I am willing to forget it though. Abe being on the board makes more sense to me because of Lexie and Theo.  I think there was a wing dedicated to Autism research or treatment years ago possibly named after Theo and Lexie was the chief of staff at some points and worked there for years.  I could see Abe having interest in the hospital still.
