DaytimeFan, I thought of you while watching today... I totally get your thing for Lauren Koslow. She's pretty exquisite. Not only does she have one of the most interesting faces in daytime, but I dig her look, which is sort of classic in a funky deconstructed way. I wonder what Cheap thinks of the hair, but I like it at any rate. She's one of the truly believable examples in the MILF/GILF category that these soaps are always trying to sell.

Right? She's the only MILF/GILF on soaps that is believable. She is a viable, sexy, woman who defies any sense of chronological age. She enlivens any scene she is in, she makes any writing work.

Kate is a GGILF now.

Kristen raping Eric doesn't bother me in the least, for two reasons:

1. Eric was boring and an awful recast but is now interesting

2. Kristen using some secret formula to do it is so 90s DiMera and in that era of DAYS you excused anything, and by calling back to that they can do the same thing today.

and with any luck Eric decides to spare St. James the humiliation of being shamed by his indiscretion and steps down from the priesthood.

HOT

This storyline is making me wish Eric was never a priest in the first place. Greg Vaughan looks GOOD. That man should not be playing a character who's celibate.

He shouldn't have been, ever. Catholicism is an anachronism even in the 90s, but Reilly could pull it off. These writers can't.

I know. He should be shirtless at all times.

Eh, I've liked Eric as a priest. I've seen fa more unrealistic things.

Holy crap I have all of last week to catch up on. Damn. I scanned a bit sounds like it was a pretty good week! I'm actually excited to watch again (well, I have been for a while but honestly, since January, and minus like a bit of spring - the Chloe [!@#$%^&*] - the show has been damn good).

Eric and Kristen look hot as hell. Though I kinda wish I didn't scan this thread, LOL, oh well. I knew what I was getting into!

The rape of a priest seems like a strange move by both Kristen and the writers. They should've made it that Eric succumbed to lust all on his own and slept with Kristen. Priests will willfully give in to lust sometimes, and Kristen's revenge against Marlena should have been something else. It's "funny" that Eric's storyline was expected by some people to be a "Thorn Birds" type storyline with Nicole, but instead Eric is raped by a crazed DiMera. It'll be interesting to see where this goes from here, because despite a good portion of the audience not liking Eric as a priest, he clearly took his priesthood very seriously. I cringe at the thought of Eric remembering what really happened to him. I also don't think Eric is going to become the stud that a lot of people wants him to be. If anything, because of this storyline, I see Eric coming off like a victim (which he is) for a very long time.

While I can buy a lot of stuf on this show - Eric as a priest, Brady with kristen, i am not sure no matter how well crafted the story was I could buy Eric being seduced by Kristen. Maybe - maybe - initially if that had happened instead of Brady, but even then thatd be pushing it. Eric has always been the good guy and loved his mother, and I just dont think it would of him at all to ignore everything kristen did to her in the past, and now with brady and john and messing with sami as well.

I think making him a priest was an interesting idea but nothing was much done with it aside from a reason he couldnt have sex with Nicole. Then again, I like they they didnt bring him on and push him into a main story right from the start and i feel like we got to know GV as Eric and Eric again to invest in him. I want to know why he became a priest though, and io hope that is explored through this. I loved how seriously he took being a priest and i hope we see a lot of his sturgles through all aspects of this story.

Im not sure why he cant be a stud and be a victim. Sami was raped once, it hasnt stopped her from being paired up in hot and popular romances.

I'm sure Eric can be a stud and a victim, I'm just feeling like he won't be for some reason. Maybe it's that "pesky" priest thing.

I'm with Jack. Eric being seduced by Kristen of all people wouldn't have worked for me. I also really respect that he took his vows as a priest seriously despite me not liking it and would rather he not have betrayed that for sex

i dont think eh will ever be banging every piece of ass in salem, but i dont think that would ever be the cast with eric as it never was like him befire nor now.

Its weird how many kristen/eric stans there are and how people are saying her raping him was sexy and hot.

The scene was filmed with focus on passion (in that moment), so I'm not surprised at some of the reactions. I just wonder what the aftermath will be. I thought Greg Vaughan did a good job in the scenes, like the stuff where he was having tremors when Nicole found him.
