This show is just not the same anymore. I find myself watching it on fast forward and it continues to be slow and predictable. I can figure out whats going on in half the time it takes. I would love to see some of the old mystery, intrigue, and romance get back on this show. Maybe send Sami and Rafe on some adventure-with budget cuts to shows though it may not be too elaborate. Oh well-time will tell where this show is headed!

I hope that Dr Baker brings down Nicole
Keep Sami and Rafe together
I predict that Philip will be murdered soon
I’m glad that they are bringing in a new nurse especially I love the name I have a daughter Irene and she is an ER Nurse in Plymouth Ma
Hopeful this will make Chloe jeaslous and I hope she is carrying Dr Daniel baby

How dare you kill off Tony????
Soon you will have none of the old favorites…the young/new ones are ok but remember we old people LOVE the older cast.
I think you need new writers…

KEEP SAMI AND RAFE TOGETHER!!!
They should of said Grace was theirs!
I hope Nicole goes down. I want EJ to learn the truth finally!! (about bout babies) and Mia get her baby back!
I also hope Chloe is carrying Daniel’s baby and I hope they get back together! I like Lucas but what Chloe and Daniel have is important and Daniel deserves to be happy to. Irene go see Lucas!

HEY ANITA…
YA THINK??????????????

Rumor has it that the new guy coming to Salem will be Eric Brady. If that is true, then here is how I would write him in:
Eric is a photographer. I would have had him down by the Pier taking pictures and inadvertantly getting shots of Tony falling through the railing with Philip standing down below. Maybe even a video that shows Philip trying to help him afterwards, and yelling at Nicole to call 911.
This would help get Nicole off the hook with Stephano…and it can lead in to a story where EJ thinks the B in Tony’s note means “Brady” and he thinks Tony believed that there was something going on between Brady and Nicole and he goes and beats Brady up.

I love Sami & Rafe together. He stands up to her and that’s what she need instead of all the love sick guys of the past that she can manuiplate.
Nicole needs to be brought down, but I am afraid of what that will do to Sami and Grace if it comes out that Grace isn’t hers. She will lose all together because EJ will never let his baby.
I hate Daniel and Chole together, their scenes are pure UNCONTROLLED lust, but I do hope she is pg by him and Lucas smartens up. He need a nice “homebody” do-gooder type girl who can love him firt.

I was sad to see tony go, but I hope he isnt really dead. Be nice if lexie is involved and tony confided in her and they teamed up to fake his death. She did call his death….it could have all been staged. I loved watching stefeno yell at nicole, I almost felt sorry for her, ALMOST. Im so tired of Bo and Hope visions, lame. Chloe getting pregnant, don’t care, they messed that story line up. It would be nice If this was a normal soap opera where they had endings to these storylines: Sami getting her real baby, keeping grace and getting back with EJ, Nicole going down for her lies, Tony coming back, marlena and john, Bo and hope having a real story line, Will and Mia getting together,Chloe being pregnant by daniel and finally telling the truth and them getting back together…sure all that would be nice, but this is days and the writers just aren’t the same anymore. How sad…

I JUST WATCHED ANOTHER BORING EPISODE, EX. SAMI AND EJ’S VISIT. I DON’T THINK I’LL WATCH FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS ABD HOPE FOR BETTER STUFF. NICOLE’S RULES FOR MIA ARE DOUBLE STUPID!
Comment added April 6th, 2009 at 3:24 pm
ewww Ross Matthews is just annoying. Please dont put him on. I dont believe I can sit through days if I have to listen to him whining!!!!
Comment added April 7th, 2009 at 7:11 am
I admit that Sami and Rafe are cute together, so was Sami and Lucas, but cute is only good for so long. I prefer Sami with EJ because they have a better dynamic. If the writers could find their way back to the original charming EJ that has a good side and a bad side that he struggles with that fell in love with Sami because he saw that in her also…
Comment added April 8th, 2009 at 9:22 am
enough already — what are you writers thinking of??????
I have to agree Tony is not dead – he and Lexie set this up, Nicole gets her come upance when Mia demands her baby back in front of EJ which leads to blood tests and finding out what Nicole did. Sami gets her baby and helps Mia raise her baby.
Sami and Rafe are hot together and what Sami needs.
Stephano and Ej are finally brought to earth and charged and found guilty on numerous charges although EJ is an accessory and his time is served in the community. He gets a new love interest in the new waitress at the Brady pub who turns out to be from he area he grew up in.
Bo and Hope, Kyla and Steve and hopefully the return of a widow Kim who hooks up with Shane (who is the one to bring Stephano into custody) her ex husband. John and Marlena are back. Maggie needs to be seen with her husband.
Lucas needs a new love interest as the baby will turn out to be Daniels and this breaks up his marriage — this time a love interest that is going to work he deserves it.
Kate needs to go and get a real life of her own and leave her children alone.
This story needs happy endings and story lines with the old cast members.
Writers remember that us old timers who have watched this show for many many years have good memories and we brought more watchers to this show and if we all leave so will others.

well, it’s like this.. fire and get rid of good characters and hire ones that take a cut in pay, am i right??
there are so many new characters, what a bummer..
i guess they’ll get rid of the rest of the crew and start with new ones.. then ther show will surely be off the air (maybe sooner than they think)..
PLEASE PLEASE don’t get rid of anymore of the cast that is on now.. i’m just hanging on by a thread (as far as watching)..
am i the only one who feels this way????

Unbelievable acting by EJ these past few weeks. Kuddos! Man does he have a temper. Wonder if he gets a headache after yelling at Nicole?
Comment added April 8th, 2009 at 11:13 am
yea, anita, NEW WRITERS
Comment added April 9th, 2009 at 7:29 am
Hey I agree with grandma. Bring back the old characters that always worked. I’ve been watching the show for 40 years – never missed an episode – and now I never watch it. It’s lost its magic. What happened to Steve and Kayla anyway? What’s going on now is INCREDIBLY BORING!!!
Comment added April 9th, 2009 at 7:45 am
I love sami and rafe together, nicole needs to go down, meliane needs nicks project back so he can get the rewards,and tonycan’t be dead bring him back in time for ej and nicole wedding so he and mia can expose nicole together, and lets not forget dr.baker who can state the truth
Comment added April 9th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
EJ should _______. He is so stupid for not putting 2 and 2 together about Sami and Nicole on this baby bit. Some of the other men on here are stupid too about other things too. I’m with the others bring back the older people that use to be on like Kim @ Shane and others who use to be on in the 80s.
Edited to remove a reference that could offend others.
Comment added April 10th, 2009 at 7:10 pm
Remember EJ is going to try to figure out Tony’s “B” on note… But i do see a love triangle between Sami,Rafe and EJ. Ummm… could get really interesting. As for Nichole, she will be running to Brady, hopefully Brady will kick her to the curb too.
Comment added April 11th, 2009 at 5:28 pm
I think Kate should accept Stephano’s marriage proposal!! You can get some great story lines from those two.
Keep Sami with Rafe and Stephanie with Philip…love those couples.
Comment added April 13th, 2009 at 5:14 pm
Please bring back John Marlena and Tony. I have watched Days for many years, and am sad to say some of your new characters just are plane boring..
Comment added April 13th, 2009 at 7:05 pm
ARGH!! EJ is the most pathetic excuse for a human being. I’ve certainly never liked him, but now…most of the time, he’s just laughable – silly really. The WORST writing ever! And the threats about “code” – oh my gosh! SO ridiculous! I do not believe in bad-mouthing an actor, since they’re only as good as the writing, but this guy…Nicole is fabulous, but IMHO, he’s beyond help!
Comment added April 13th, 2009 at 8:13 pm
Keep Sami with Rafe, he’s got to tell Sami that he loves her! Why didn’t Lucas tell Sami that Nicole’s baby looked like his daughter when she was small. Mia should ask Nicole for her baby. Mia is drawn to Grace which is her own baby. Sami was drawn to Nicole’s baby. This has been dragged on way too long!!
Comment added April 17th, 2009 at 1:56 pm
The entire Nicole thing is unbelievable.
Comment added April 23rd, 2009 at 8:24 am
Daniel and Chloe belong together, I can’t wait ’til they find their way back to eachother. It’s not just lust, it’s love & chemistry! Nicole is a complete loon, very entertaining but she’s got to end up in the loony bin for a bit, soon, right? Even Chloe will be appalled when she finds out what she’s done with those babies. EJ is just disugsting, what a slimy oily bohunk, he deserves to be alone. And what’s with the constant blinking, I call him Blinky now. Sami & Rafe are adorable, I love them! There are many cute guys on this show, Daniel, Rafe, Brady. Even Bo still looks good! I am sorry to see Darrin Brooks go, good luck to him. I am starting to think Melanie & Brady could be a very good couple, she is just hilarious and she & Brady are very sweet together. Brady deserves a woman who loves him, Nicole treats him like dirt! I like Lucas but I don’t like him witih Chloe or Sami. Find him someone new! And Stephanie is sweet but a total snooze. She bores me to death! I am so loving seeing Victor & Stephano squaring off against eachother! I hate those DiMera’s they need to be brought down!

The young cast is o.k. I have been watching DOOL for 42 years. I would really like for John & Marlena to come back to the show. It always helps to have to have ones that we can relate to. I really miss them.
