Days of Our Lives Spoilers For December 21-25.


philip-mel-0721Christmas comes to Salem.

It doesn’t look like Christmas is going to be the merriest of times in Salem this year, not for the naughty or the nice. Elvis thinks they should hold a special candlelight vigil for Sydney on Christmas Eve. Will he be getting a special present under the DiMera Christmas tree? Something will be arriving for him, although it might not be wrapped in a bow. EJ receives a note from the kidnapper. Is this the present he’s been waiting for or will it tear him apart?

Keeping in the holiday spirit, Justin tells his fellow Kiriakis, Philip, that this is the time of year to spend with those that you love. It doesn’t take much to prod him into action and he gets busy with the gift giving. In fact, it looks like he’s going to be giving Mel a big ring after she accepts his proposal.

Although she’s been as indecisive as Melanie, Carly finally comes clean and admits that she is falling in love with Bo all over again. Romance is tricky for many other Salemites as well. Arianna’s clumsy actions accidentally drive Brady back to Nicole. Meanwhile, her little sister starts to get involved in some romantic messiness herself. Mia gets upset when she spots Chad and Gabi slow dancing.

  1. From Clear

    Oh please, give Sami back her baby and be done with the baby kidnapping sooner than later! Why doesn’t Justin leave town and go back to his wife and work things out? He’s a jerk, but he can travel back to defend Nicole and get into more trouble no doubt. Carley can comfort Bo while the Hope wench pines and pouts over at Victor’s with Viv and Victor. Hope is a stupid character to not just go home! Nicole and Brady together is fine with me! I have never liked the Ariana character that much, and thought she was better when the first actress played her. Give her to E. J. for Christmas is fine too. Melanie, don’t do it–not Phillip! Maybe Mia is concerned that Chad will get Gabi into trouble and isn’t jealous at all!

  2. From Kino

    I would imagine Gabi becoming Jan more than Mimi and drives a wedge between Chad and Mia by stealing him away from her. When all is said and done, Mia will find herself in Will’s arms.

    Also, I bet when Vivian is done with her revenge on Carly, she should make Kate’s life a living hell. She should find Daniel and tells him that she wants to help him nab her enemy for her crimes. He gives Vivian a suspicious look, but confesses about Kate’s failed attempt to kill Chloe and Stefano by poisoning their food. She uses the information that she got from him to her advantage in her showdown against Kate.

    I hope Anna does return Sydney to Sami so she and Rafe can raise her away from the Dimera life. It would be interesting to learn how she tracked Nicole down.

  3. From Kim

    Knowing who the kidnapper is, I am wondering why her????

  4. From Missy

    bring ej & sami, be bk as in a supercouple this Xmas. bring them alot closer & have full custody of their children remarry them.

  5. From NewEnglandClamChowder

    So Philip & Melanie are getting engaged and never even went out on a date? Wasn’t she just with Nathan? What happened to courtship? Soaps always rush characters into meeting, marriage, extra-marrital affair, baby, divorce and then it starts all over again. It’s stupid & unrealistic! Hope needs to go. I’m done with her. I’m also starting to not like Arianna anymore. I thought she would be a smart, tough girl, but instead it’s Theresa Lopez-Fitgerald all over again! I hated that character with a passion (wink)!!! Tired of the baby switch-kidnapping story. Let it end! Plaase bring back Tony from the dead. I miss him. I just love how everyone in Salem knows one another, but yet, Rafe and his family are apparently from Salem and no one knows them…weird. Congratulations to Arianne & Kyle Lowder on the birh of their daughter Isabella!!

  6. From Debbie

    I agree this baby switch so needs to be over. But I do not agree that EJ and Sami should be together. He is SO controlling and such a nasty freak. sami really needs to stay with Rafe. they are So great together. I would rather see Sami with nutty Lucas than with EJ. I am really wondering though why Anna is the kidnapper. she left Salem so angry at Stefano that she can’t possibly be working with him. EJ probably got her to kidnap Sydney so he could blame Stefano and look like the hero to Sami. As for Mia being jealous of Gabi, I thought she was all into Will again. They really need to replace the actress that plays Mia. She is so aweful. And Melanie and Philip si just gross.

  7. From island girl

    i hardly watch days now that i see philip and mel getting together and the baby kidnapping is still lingering..its getting boring!

  8. From babs

    I’m also wondering why **** has the baby. What’s the motivation here? I don’t get it.

  9. From terry

    I rarely comment in this and I always read other’s opinions, but now I got to say this. Ejami was never a super couple, yes they were hot for a sec but that was all. they wasn’t 2gether long enough to be called a super couple,
    now Lumi on the other hand they were a super couple. I do love sami with rafe, they’re hot 2gether
    and rafe unlike salem’s finest can get stuff done.

    gabi and chad this is gonna be interesting, especially if mia is gonna be jealous but again 2 bad 4 will.

    I’m sick of Hope already and want Carly and Bo 2gether again, and Justin needs to step off and work on his divorce with his wife. Mel and Phil don’t care as far as they go. nathen is better off without melanie and be alone 4 a lil bit.

  10. From La Crisha

    I never commit on these but, I gotta say I’m rooting for Sami and E.J they deserve to be together. I think Anna took Sydny for revenge. She is Carries mother. She is getting back at Sami for all the times she hurt Carrie.

  11. From Dorothy I

    I hope that EJ & Sami have Sydney by Christmas Eve

    As far as Hope & Bo goes,I really don’t like Carly for Bo put her with Justin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I’m disappointed that the writers are putting Mel with Phillip he is awful towards her what kind of message are they sending to us lets see here treat your girlfriend like shit as much as you can !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  12. From Sue W

    I liked EJ and Sami together. They have chemistry and the James and Ali bring out each other’s best emotional acting. There’s a variety, not just mush and sex. I never liked Lucas. I got tired of his yelling and accusing, and as much as I like Rafe, it’s just too sappy with Rafe and Sami. I too am tired of the baby switch/kidnapping story lines. That poor kid is going to be totally screwed up wondering just who her mommy is!

  13. From bf

    I am so sick of the baby kidnapping thing, allright alredy, can something good happen like Sami and EJ back together! The Carley Bo Hope thing is really getting on my nerves. Hope needs to grow up and cut Bo some slack and he needs to stop being such a back boneless husband. Carley needs to go somewhere! Melanie and Phillip are terrible together. EJ loves Sami so much, and she really does him too, she just won’t show it, so bring Sydney back and let them be a family with out Stefano, but now that would be too easy.

  14. From dc

    yea, i am wondering the same thing, why is anna the kidnapper??.
    i don’t think stefano had anything to do with it because anna hated stefano for what he did to tony..
    get little sydney back to sami and rafe for christmas.. although this will probably not happen..
    i can see melanie and philip together.. and i kind of knew that carly is still in love with bo..
    now, what is hope gonna do about it??
    hope will get back with bo, she just has to..

  15. From AngelaG

    I agree with a lot that has already been said, please end the baby kidnapping plot now and give Sami and EJ Sydney back.

    I LOVE Sami and EJ together and think they have the most chemistry. I think EJ really tried to ‘redeem’ himself when he thought he might have had a real chance with Sami and I think he would again. I think Sami and Rafe have zero chemistry and it seems so forced to me.

    I didn’t care for Carly the first time she was on the soap and that still hasn’t changed. I am sick of Hope’s leaving Bo at the drop of a hat and making goo goo eyes at Justin. Yuck!

    Brady in love with Nicole?? He actually shows more devotion to her than most of the ‘in love/married/supercouples’ on the show. After everything she has done, it just seems unrealistic.

    Do not like Mel with Phillip, especially the way he treated her after they slept together. She should NEVER have spoken to him again, much less fall all over him every time he is around.

    Gees, I’m so negative. I do love Bo and Hope and wish they would get back to the way they used to be. Why not just put Justin and Carly together and solve those two problems :)

    Come on, DAYS, you can do better than this!!!

  16. From Delores

    Oh hell…now Brady goes back to Nicole. HOW MUCH LONGER will this Norman Bates offspring be on the show??!! And Brady needs off of the show as well. I thought the kidnapper was going to be revealed THIS Thursday or Friday, NOW you folks are telling us Sydney will still be out there in Limbo Land through next week?? COME ON—GET WITH IT!! DONT let this baby grow up to be a COWGIRL before she goes back to Sami, which will be in the nursing home by that time. GIVE ‘ER BACK “”NOW”" for Christs sake. Cant you writers all see that you are losing Days fans by drag @ssing around so much??

  17. From patsy

    looks like it,s still the days of Nicole . Won,t it ever stop ?So tired of the baby story line .Just get Sami with EJ or Rafe and get on with the show enought is enought .

  18. From Ashleigh

    Boooooooooooooring! I fast forward through almost the whole show now. Same old, same old. Get Sydney back to Sami (and Rafe), the “drug dealer” story got old a loooooooong time ago; and revealing you’re working undercover! Duh!! Can’t we set up Victor and Stefano has being the front men for the drugs? And Kate being soooooo loyal and loving toward the man who tried to have her son (Philip) killed by (Stefano). Please darling. I’m going to puk! Blessed Holidays to all!

  19. From barbara

    i agree with most of what others have said. #13 is right on about nicole. i am toooooooo sick of her and don’t understand why she’s getting so much of the action. please get sydney back with sami/ef and don’t let ej be the one who set up her disappearance.

  20. From alishia

    I used to love Sami and Lucas, but after the way he treated her when he got out of jail eh not so much. I can understand why, I just don’t like it. I think Sami deserves someone who will love her for everything she is, good, bad, and everything in between. I think Lucas could be that someone if he grows up a little. I gotta admit I really miss their love making scenes. They were hot. I love Rafe too, and I like EJ. I LIKE THEM ALL lol. Oh dear I’m such a slut. I think Sami should have a harem. Yeah that would work. =D hahahaha

  21. From Doris

    THANK GOODNESS SOMEONE SAID CARLY IS INDECSIVE! IT WAS NOT SIMPLY ME! I am seriously sick of Carly. How the writers are writing her is complete hogwash. Dena needs to either improve the character or find a new job. Besides the chemistry Carly and Daniel early this week was great. I truly want Bo and Hope to work through their problems and get Carly out the core of their problems.
    And did I say I’m liking the fact Gabi and Chad maybe a possibility. Mia is too sweet for him and though they had a child together, this is the same Chad who did not mind spending nasty rumors at Salem High about how much of “slut” she is.
    And lastly, this kidnapping storyline needs to come to a close with Sydney! Give Sydney back to Sami and EJ.

  22. From justafan days

    please bring sydney back to sami what is anna dimera doing with the baby i know she blamed stephano but did she blame ej too. for her problems with tony. does anyone like phillip and melanie together like i do they will become a super couple in salem she is full of life
    and really loves phillip deep down i its about time he loved her. they have courted didn’t you see
    the internet hehehe.

  23. From arlene

    I think Stefano used Anna because he probably is paying her a hugh sum of money to keep Sydney from everyone. Since Tony has died, maybe her funds are low and doing this for Stephano will be rewarding moneywise for her. That’s just a thought, don’t know this for sure.

  24. From Renee

    I can see Daniel and Carly having an affair. I actually think they would be hot together. I like Chloe and Brady always have. I disagree with the people saying that Mia is terrible I think shes great. Loads better than Melanie! Oh yeah Phil and Melanie are vomit material! Poor Roman he never gets laid LMAO

  25. From mandy

    I really agree with all of the above comments…The baby thing has got to end. And PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE kill the buzz between Mel and Phil….it’s just wrong…I used to like Phil, now he’s pukey…they have to do something with his hair, it is atrocious!! As for Bo and Hope…Hope needs to stop acting all high and mighty and just go back to Bo. She is starting to irritate me also…Carly just needs to move on…Like a lot of Days fans, thank God for DVRs/TiVo, otherwise I wouldn’t be watching anymore. Please let me watch the whole thing sometime in the future!!Merry Christmas!!!

  26. From Toady...lol-aka-meadow-mist

    i believe that roman is possibly the master-mind behind the kid-napping of lil’ sydney…to get ej and stefano to turn on each other…rafe is helping him..

  27. From Cand

    I am starting to do alot of FF which is not a good thing…Sami baby thing dumb. Carly Hope Bo thing dumb. Now Viv and Victor and Kate humm that is good and funny. oh ya and I did enjoy Stef telling Sami off….I would have had HER arrested for coming into my house. The D’s put up with to many people just walking in their house. What’s up with that?

  28. From MsBoulder-CO

    Let’s get Sydney back to Sami in time for Christmas. Don’t think Roman is behind this. That’s his own granddaughter and he’s not ruthless like Stefano.

    Carly – of course she’s coming between Bo and Hope. Hope deserves to lose Bo cause of the way she’s acting.

    Gabi – She’s going to be trouble to the group. I think she’ll push Kinzie to become the Jan of the group. Kinzie likes Chad and when she sees Chad and Gabi together she’ll get jealous. Mia after all has Will (new one taking over that role too) and Chad. Kinzie has no one so she’ll feel left out.

    Ari – quite sending Brady back to Nicole through your actions being wishy washy.

  29. From babs

    Roman behind it all? interesting…..

  30. From Clear

    So writers, many of us agree no Phil and Melanie will be enjoyed, and Sami and E. J. may have chemistry, but she’s still better with Rafe that actually does get things done, and acts like he has a brain instead of being one big dopy criminal. We are sick of, “Find the baby!” I was surprised to see that someone else mentioned they hated the wimpy Passions character that the Ariana actress played. I quit watching that because of it, and I fast forward through the Ari/Brady love scenes. I like Carly, and detest the Hope wench as I’ve said. Doesn’t Days have a hair stylist on site? Hope’s hair was awful along with Viv’s yesterday. Carley’s is too flat on top and needs styling. I haven’t seen Will lately, but his always looked terrible. One other thing is that over time Rafe has had way too much make up on. His lips are redder than anyone’s and he does not need make up to look good!

  31. From Torance

    I just read somewhere that Melanie is suppose to be around 18 years old. That’s disgusting to put her with Philip who must be in his mid 30′s. Eeewww. Why can’t Phil find a mature woman, maybe a cougar to tame him.

  32. From Kino

    #28

    I agree with you about Gabi and Kinsey becoming the new Jan and Mimi duo. However, I see Gabi being Jan more because she’s far more capable of causing trouble to the group with her schemes to break up Chad and Mia.

    I also agree that Hope deserves to lose everything to Bo including custody of their daughter, Ciara. When all is said and done, Carly will be the new Mrs.Brady.

    No more Philip and Melanie, they’re soo boring. Nathan and Melanie have better chemestry than that

    Also please have Anna return Sydney to Sami and Rafe so they can raise her with love. Rafe doesn’t need any makeup, he looks good the way he is.

    One final thing, please give us a Kate VS Vivian showdown. I want to see both women go at each other’s throats with their fighting and schemes.

  33. From Chocolite

    OK, can somebody help me out?? Why is Victor wearing dark glasses? Is this related to his character or is something going on in real life?

  34. From Clear

    On the soap, Victor said he had an accident playing with Ciara? It supposedly covered a black eye?

  35. From Annie

    Roman behind the baby switch…great idea! Anna would totally help Roman set up the Dimeras. I heard that Carly and Daniel met at a medical conference, hooked up, and Carly gave birth to his baby (Melanie). I am LOVING the scenes between EJ and Sammi. You can just feel how much they truly care about each other. I really like Rafe too, but I’m afraid he’s going to be left heartbroken in the end.

  36. From Annie

    By the way, shouldn’t Phillip be in his late 20′s and Mel is only supposed to be 18. Quite an age gap.

  37. From Annie

    Ok, I just looked it up online. Jay Kenneth Johnson (Phillip) is actually 32 in real life and Melanie is actually 21. Still quite a stretch.

  38. From SoapSK

    Terry…I couldn’t agree with you more!!!!

  39. From Milwaukee

    Seriously, If I have to watch anymore Days kidnapping I am going to stop DVR. Its SO BORING!! I like EJ and Sami together, he’s so hot and they did that whole Colleen –Dimara Grandparent lookalike with Sami & EJ anyway—as if they were supposed to be together…Ari and EJ..BORING. Seriously, I don’t know why I watch anymore…

  40. From dc

    i think victor got his black eye from ice skating with ciara..
    i’m still confused as to why they have brought anna back to the show and how long she is gonna be on the show, are they gonna ever show her face??..

  41. From honeybun

    I think in real life, Victor had something happen to his eyes. Perhaps surgery. I don’t want Phil with Mel. He’s using her. I really thought last week Mia started to look people in the eyes when they talked. Maybe someone told her about the complaints on her acting. She seemed better. Mel is full of spunk. I like that. Didn’t know Arianna had the baby. She was due today. Congrats! Rafe is so hot. Don’t like E.J. His temper is awful. Roman is looking ghostly lately. He needs a tan. Hope is getting sympathy from Justin & acting like the victum. Why doesn’t she take a walk over the pier. Carly & Dr. Dan looked hot together. They have chemistry.

  42. From Chris

    I could see Anna not knowing that Sydney is really Sami’s and she just wants to get revenge on EJ and Stefano for how they treated Tony. There’s a connection between Anna and the Bradys that I couldn’t see her cross over in doing something like that. I’ve heard we’re supposed to see Anna’s face this Friday. I’m another one that does not like Phillip with Melanie – there’s too much of an age difference between them. She’s much better with Nathan. I think they need to fix the storyline with Hope, who is acting like a jerk. I’ve always liked her, but not in this storyline. I love having Vivian back, especially with her sniping at Kate, but wish they had brought back Ivan as well. I do agree with others who think Daniel will turn out to be the father of Carly’s baby. I’d like to see Carly either with Daniel or Justin (if they’re not going to bring back Adrienne, that is). I’ve also heard a rumor that they’re going to turn Will gay. I hope the show doesn’t go in that direction with the new actor. I don’t mind a gay character, I just don’t like it when they make an existing character like that gay after all this time. I wish they would also get rid of EJ. He is too smug and has never paid for all his crimes in the past, but acts so high and mighty when people lie to him. What about when he shot John? He never paid for that. Of course, most people on that show (hello, Kate) normally don’t pay for their actions either. Except for Nicole, and that’s probably only due to the fact that the actress was pregnant in real life during that storyline and they needed to write her out somehow. I would also like to see some of the vets (Carolyn, Abe, and Lexie) come back and be involved in a storyline. The show has wasted too much time on the baby switch and I would love to actually go a week without seeing EJ and his smug attitude. I guess one can’t always have storylines one likes, but for the most part, I think Days is on the right track.

  43. From missy

    rafe has no right to raise syd, she is ej’s baby unlike grace, ej was there, leave sami and ej alone.

  44. From patsy

    Another week is about gone and the story line is still about Nicole/Ari .Ithought when this all started it was suppose to be the EJ/SAMI love story .But for the last year its all about Nicole Ari. .THEpossiable of a EJ/SAMI love story has been whats keeping the fans watching but I,mgetting tired of waiting .Don,t get me wrong I LOVERafe/SAMI BUT James/EJand Ali/SAMIhave a special something betweenthem that makes them very exciteing to watch together.please get this baby story over with .

  45. From Days Fan

    How does everyone know for sure that Anna has Sydney?

  46. From Brooklyn

    Listen to her talk and you know it’s Anna, plus it’s in the spoilers. I’d love to have Tony back too and am glad they are giving Anna another chance. They ruined it the last time she was on, as they did with Steve and Kayla. So far they are doing well with Carly and Vivian. We definitely need Ivan back though. I like Philip and Melanie? Does Stephanie drive anyone crazy? She loves Jeremy,nope Max, nope Philip, and still not good enough so let’s go for somebody else’s guy. At least she makes a better couple with Nathan. I never bought her and Philip. I’d like some jail scenes with Nicole and Nick. Bring him back!

  47. From NewEnglandClamChowder

    Just read that the reason Anna kidnapped Sydney was because she needed money. Really? That is ridiculous. The woman has more than enough money. And why kidnap a baby? Does she think she will not be thrown in jail? Oh wait. Salem PO sucks and in the soaps no one goes to jail or dies unless they are getting rid of the character. I would have preferred a revenge reason for kidnapping poor cute baby Sydney.

  48. From Michelle

    I know that the secret’s already out that Anna has Sydney, but wouldn’t it have been a good twist if Emily (Rafe’s “dead” fiancee) was really alive and found out about Rafe and Sami and took Sydney for revenge?
    It was just a thought…
    But I do want to know how ANYONE knew that Nicole was at that bus station in Cleveland to be able to kidnap Sydney. The regular Salemites just found out minutes before the kidnapping happened I thought.

  49. From honeybun

    Ya, Anna was a sane person, so for her to go along with the kidnapping is rediculous. And if Stephano or E.J. had Nicole followed then why didn’t they just get the baby. Why all the following just when she is about to get on the bus. What if she had gotten on the bus. Makes no sense to me. And why did Anna fall today & the temp kept getting colder. With a thermostat that doesn’t happen. What was the purpose of that.

  50. From shirley

    Just a quick question, how come no one ever asked rafe where he had been and why hasnt he ever mentioned being kidnapped and almost murdered by meredith ???

  51. From kappyblu

    #46–
    It could happen if the door was wide open, which it was. If you open your front door when it’s 15 degrees outside…and you leave it open long enough,the temp will drop.
    I think the point of that happening is to add a little more drama there, maybe.
    I hate that Anna is the kidnapper. I am sick of them dragging this out for so long.

  52. From iernu

    I can’t find myself feeling sympathy for Sami even though she’s the “victim” here. The show has gotten pretty boring. I was hoping the kidnapper would have been Kristen Dimera–I mean, if they are bringing people back, why not her? She was already a bit batty anyway.

    And Anna? Why? At least they could have made it interesting and had her somehow also have Nicole and EJ’s (non-dead) baby too.

  53. From sue

    Gabi and Chad are a very interesting couple and i like the fact that Chad and Will might become friends or they will fight over Gabi which leaves Mia nothing but i hoe thet they dont try to ruin Gabi character i like her character hope shes gets more airtime thouhgt with Chad. not trying to be men but Chad and Gabi are more fun to watch then Mia and Will they are annoying , but if Gabi and Will hook up then will character will become interesting though but for now im loving chad and gabi <3333

  54. From Toady...lol-aka-meadow-mist

    …with the way ej is looking like death warmed over at worrying about lil’ sydney, i’m beginning to think that he didn’t take her…maybe victor is in it alone with anna…on the other hand rafe doesn’t look that worried to me, maybe because he’s in on the staged fake kid-napping with roman and abe……all of which have assured sami that sydney will be home for christmas…as men in law enforcement, they should know better than to give false hope…

  55. From Toady...lol-aka-meadow-mist

    it would have been better if when anna had woken up, that when she rushed to the bassinet, that it was empty..!!….but alas nothing that dramatic, yet…lol

  56. From Debbie

    #43 I agree with you that they really needed to bring Ivan back when Vivian came on scene. Now they had chemistry. I am also trying to remember who Nick is that you mentioned. I still think EJ is completely behind kidnapping Sydney to look like the hero to Sami when he finds her. I can’t stand EJ though so that is why I blame him. Sami and Rafe forever.

  57. From beanie

    I personally think sami has had the most chemistry with brandon walker and next to him ej….. Rafe is such a sweetheart but i like him and sami as friends. Lucas is just to boring for sami plus kate was always in the way. brady is a fool he got pretty ari and he still worried bout nicole, get it together man…. someone need to cuss brady out and tell him he should be there for sami more so then nicole…Ugh! Roman would never lie to sami about her daughter syd, if he would not put her threw it without letting her know…. I think EJ is behind it so him and sami can become closer but then again i am a little confused cause he seems so mad he doesn’t know where his baby girl is. Hope needs to get it together b4 bo is goin with the wind she is so stuck on stupid…

  58. From Days Fan

    #47-Shirley
    And why haven’t they ever memtioned
    that Carley saved his life?

  59. From christie

    wow im so over the baby story just bring her back already and im sure its ej’s doing to get revenge on stefano and get sami back but i love her and rafe together. i hope they keep heating up the storyline with mel nath steph and phill cause its some shawn and belle storyline stuff if they keep it going and interesting. get rid of mia and will they are so boring! I used to love hope but now i say let carly have bo cause its hope’s own fault i would be fighting for my man but shes more interested in carly’s secret so its her own dumb fault

  60. From Clear

    They often leave a loose end just trailing out there without further comment–enough that Rafe said Meredith was in a mental institution? Will already looks gay with that stupid hairstyle he has hanging in his eyes. I do NOT want to watch ANY gay characters! If they write in gays, I’ll be fast forwarding, or stop watching altogether. Anna obviously is following the papers, so why would she not know by now everything including the fact that Nicole is in jail. Is she still supposed to be in Cleveland?
    Hope was stupid again today when she could have made up and gone home! Why are they putting that ugly white sweater on her and pulling her hair back in the nondescript pony tail that shows her anorexic facial bones?? She looked like a hag today! It’s really ridiculous that she insists Bo tell her everything including Carley’s secret. Yet, she wouldn’t even tell him where she went when she first left or where to call to talk with, or to come and see his daughter. Hope punished him for doing things his way, and he never told her why because she had already discounted his premonitions. Bo needs to remind her of that! Also, when will he have another one? That should liven things up for the New Year!

  61. From cherie

    Why would you say Will already looks “gay”…#60? The writers aren’t going to do that to us are they??? Lucas needs to come back strong and help Sami out and tell his mother to shut up when she tries to interfere anymore…Lucas is the one that has history with Sami and they need to reconnect…Rafe is sweet and I like him, but not for Sami to fall in love with…also, the whole thing with Anna have Sydney is just silly…where did she come from and if they are going to be bringing back “old” characters…let’s try John and Marlena…they are missed on the show for sure..so are Patch and Kayla.

  62. From Misty

    Mia should deside between Will and “the x-borfriend”. I votefor Will and if Will is Mia’s choice she should not care who her x is dancing with. Melanie should deside between Phillip and the Dr. she has been seeing. Ny vote is for the Doctor-to-be, after all he will one day be a docter and he is a Horton. Justin should go home and work things out with his wife. Hope and Bo should get back together. Victor should kick Vivian to the curb and get in with Caroline. Stephano and Kate should leave Salem. Phillip should end up with noone. Lucas and Sali should get together for good and Sydney should come home to Sami. Lucas and Sami should find out that all of Sami’s children belong to Lucas. Carly, Vivan, Stefano&Kate, and Phillip should leave Salem.

    Put Bo&Hope together again and keep them together.

    Bring back John&Marlena, and Patch/Steve & Kayla.

  63. From Sarah

    Is everyone sure that Sydney is E.J.’s child. The big surprise may be that she really belongs to Lucas.

  64. From honeybun

    Nick is Maggies grandson, that dated Willow & then she died. He tried to kidnap Melanie & now is in the mental institution.
    I don’t get the Anna thing about falling of the chair & the heat going down. What was the purpose of all that. I thought for sure when she came to the baby would be unconsious & she would wake up & have to get help. Then someone at the hospital would spot them & turn them in. If not Stephano or E.J., then who would it be that is working with Anna. I can not stand that Vivian. She is so gross. What gives her the right to act so smug. She is bad news herself. Victor should not get in with her on this deal, & just kick her out.
    Hope is so dopey any more. She acts worse each day. I think she is getting mental problems. She should get help. She wants to know all about bo’s stuff but she won’t tell him anything. And Justin is just making things worse for them. If anything, HE wants Hope.

  65. From tuniepepper

    The way I saw it, Anna climbed upon a stepladder to hang up a Christmas wreath, with those expensive designer high-heel boots on {silly female} , left the door open, fell off the ladder and the room kept getting colder, thus causing the themomenter to keep going down. At least that is the way I saw that. Did Stefano lie his way out of the truth syrum that Rafe gave him? I cannot see Anna working with a Demear but who is Stefano calling each time Anna gets a call if not Anna and who is Anna talking with if not Stefano? Why did Nichol not remember who those boots belong to? Where has Anna been sence Tony “died” and why is Anna back in Salem? When did Anna come back to Salem?

    Stefano and Kate make a great couple One is just as rotten as the other.

    Carly go home and take Vivan withyou.

    Bo&Hope kiss and makeup so Cierar can enjoy Christmas in her own home this year.

  66. From janiebell

    Anna comes from where this time? Anna comes because of? Anna could not be a mother to her own daughter with Roman, Kerrie. Roman and Marlena raised Kerrie from age five. This was the first time Roman knew he had a daughter with Anna. Anna wanted to persue her carrear in fashion designing. So if Anna is \to bussey\ to raise her own daughter, why kidnap someone else’s daughter if not for revenge to Stefano, E.J. and Sami? Sami belongs with Lucas.

  67. From Houston

    Kate’s working with the police to bring Stephano down. Roman hired Anna to keep Sydney safe. Stephanie and Lucas belong with one another. Melanie is Carly and Daniel’s one-night-stand child. The real Hope was abducted again, that’s why this one has gone NUTS!

  68. From Clear

    Kate should be in the pen with him! Maybe Anna is doing it for John Black to keep the Dimera’s away till he can neutralize both of them, and maybe John will be back! I’m sick of the baby thing like everyone else and thought Sami was going to have the baby back by Christmas. Why do the writers think we have to have constant pain and turmoil? How about some happy endings for the holidays? #61 Will’s haircut is terrible–a babydoll haircut the oldtimers called it. It makes him look immature too–too immature to get the hair out of his eyes!
    I’m enjoying watch Viv connive, but I don’t want her to win any matches with Carley. Remember how Ivan loved Vivian? What happened to him? The upcoming hospital switch is something I would like to see Carley circumvent, but it will air as they have shown it in the coming scenes I suppose. I like Carley much better than the Hope shrew!

    Misty above had some good points. I like Sami with Rafe though–if they just wouldn’t put lipstick on him darker than hers! It would be nice to have John Black back,but they can keep the others–not a fan of Marlena and the all purpose grimace.
    Stephano and Kate are interesting, but they should get some justice for their crimes from time to time. Victor to go good and get with Caroline would be a great happy ending! Viv’s haircut distracts me from the storyline–especially when it’s curled like an upside down letter “V” on her head!

  69. From melody

    Nicole is hands down one of the best actresses on show-Sami _____, I cannot stand her fake tears. But if I had to couple up it would be Lucas & Sami…they suit each other. Ej with Ari…Mel with Nathan…Stepanie no one she’s to fickle…Carly with Dr Dan and Bo & Hope together so they can age together & give us the next Tom & Alice.

  70. From Arlene

    What’s with the stupid looking hairstyle that Philip has? He is starting to look like the kid on the Little Rascals, Alfalfa!

  71. From Clear

    I thought maybe they were going for the slick gangster look. Ever see any of the old movies with James Cagney?

  72. From Joe

    I have to say I’m a bit PISSED as to why Days has got rid of alot of long time contracts Because they Say OH WE CANT AFFORD TO PAY THEM ANYMORE But YET HOWEVER They go Out and Hire a Hand Full 0f Newcomers! How is it they can afford to pay new comers but yet get rid of the other contracts??

  73. From Eve

    Anna probably wants to get back at Stefano – Anna blames him for the death of Tony…..anyhow……..writers give back Sami’s baby……sometimes I get a headache for the drag out drama …and Hope needs to see a doctor to examine her thinking process

  74. From Paula

    I don’t believe for a minute that Roman has anything to do with Syd’s kidnapping. He simply wouldn’t put his daughter through something like this, especially knowing what she just went through over losing Grace. That would make him to be some kind of a monster, which is isn’t. EJ however, is another story altogether. From his reactions to everything, it’s not looking like he arranged it, but we all know how much he likes revenge and how deceiving he can be.
    Mia’s hair looked alot better this week…for once it wasn’t hanging over her eyes!
    I don’t know what’s going on with Hope and Bo, but I don’t agree that it will be Carly and Bo in the end. Bo and Hope have been a supercouple for years, and I have no doubt that they will remain intact at the end of it all. Carly may have her time for a while, but in the end, she will lose.

  75. From Penny

    Ok. I am so sick of all the baby switch/kidnapping almost catch ‘em, then loose them routine. I think that EJ and Sami are awesome together!!! I also think that on Christmas Day that they should get Sydney back and realize how much they love each other and become a family. Let’s face it EJ doesn’t need Stefeno. Let him stand up and be his own man. Days needs some super couples, all of our great couples are gone! I remember back in the day when Tom & Alice stood through thick & thin. Hope I am so sick of her. Everytime she doesn’t get her way, she leaves Bo and blames him for everything gone wrong. Bring back John & Marlena, Mickie & Maggie make them the back bone of Days. We need to show this younger generation that marriage still does exist. I think Rafe is so wrong for Sami, and I am begging please please don’t put her back with Lucas, because he is all about being holier than thou… A mister goodie two shoes. No wonder a woman wants him he is a moma’s boy also. So please bring Sami & EJ back together or call me I’ll come be his girl.

  76. From Tiffany

    Quit saying Carly and BO should be together. IT’S ALWAYS BEEN BO AND HOPE. I agree hope is being stupid but give the gal a break. THEY BETTER WORK IT OUT!!

    I hate Melanie and Philip. Stephanie is BUGGING me she is a petty brat. REUNITE MELANIe and NATHAN!!!

    BRING SYDNEY HOME WE’RE SICK OF THE BABY KIDNAPPING STORY

    I love both Ej and Sami and Rafe and Sami… who should she be with?? I cant decide

  77. From Clear

    Perhaps you are correct, Paula. I would so like to see justice for the holidays and really want to see Sydney back. I’m tired of that story line like most other people have posted too.
    What was the purpose of Anna falling? Also, she has to go out some time. I read (Spoiler alert) that she takes a pix and writes a note and delivers to EJ. Is she going to hurt them in the pocketbook, and as soon as she gets the money give Sami the baby while she remains a mystery as the kidnapper. Actually, that would be kind of cool, and then she could come back rich, seduce Roman again to keep in the loop to know if they found anything leading to her, and find new ways to torture the Dimeras! But let the baby kinapping thing be over!!

  78. From Tess

    I hate the way they never tie up loose ends on this program. Rafe was thrown into the drink by that sicko Meredith and miraculously is rescued by Carley who saves his life but when he gets back to Salem nobody including that spoiled brat Sami Brady even cares about the fact that he almost died. Mind you I know she keeps loosing babies all the time which is sad but in view of all the lives she has destroyed over the years maybe she is getting what she deserves. Personally I would looooooove to see Rafe meet up with Carley who saved his life. They will certainly fall in love. Doesn’t anybody think they would make a great match? How come people think EJ and Sami make a good couple? He raped her for crying out loud! That is not a good foundation for building a life together. I wish that Hope and Justing would run away together because they both make me sick. I like Bo but he needs to get away from that hen pecking wife of his. And would somebody please explain to me how Carley can be the mother of either of those blond brats when they both have other parents? Stephanie is another goody two shoes that I wish they would get rid of. They could bring her parents back though.

  79. From Jack Kanov

    Hope has been away from the house awhile. It’s about time Beuregard gets some Carly Delite. She is not a skeletor like Hope and has very nice breasticles.
    Melanie looks like a crushed up cigarette butt and I can’t stand the field mouse Mia. Gabby is too gabby as well as annoying. The old Ariyanna was better looking but still looked like a byotch in real life. Bring back John, not Marlena though. Bring back that zany lab rat Ralph and I would love to see Stephano take EJ away and lock him up in a room. Stephanie is an egghead and is booooooring too. Chad is a tall lanky bastard that can’t act. Sami has lost too much wieght and needs some extra cushion for the pushin’. Her breasticles are getting smaller too. Not good. Nicole needs to be tortured off the show. She suuuuucks. Bo needs develop a scrotum and tell Hope that there is no Hope. Carly is healhier looking and Hope looks like a smoker. I bet in real life she smokes. Just like I bet Kate smokes in real life with that stupid voice of hers. Vivian has man hands too. Go Pats, Go Bruins, Go Celts, rack me I’m out

  80. From kappyblu

    #78 Tess…the only person that knew what happened to Rafe was Arianna. Rafe never told Sami what happened to him when Meredith had him.

  81. From equalityboy81

    Why is it necessary for one of the posters to express their dislike for homosexuality? They are getting off topic. If they want to fast forward past gay people onscreen then fine but why do they feel the need to vent about it? I take that kind of language quite offensive. I’m sure it wouldn’t be allowed on this forum if someone were to say they didn’t want to watch Latino or Caucasian or African-American characters.
    People should keep their biases to themselves. I consider homophobia/heterosexism/sexualism/homonegativity/heteronormativity equivalent to racism and sexism.

  82. From BoandFancyFace4Ever

    I’ve watched Days since..well almost the beginning. As you can tell, Bo & Hope are my fav couple. I HATE the way the Days is writing Hope right now. However, I still believe that Bo & Hope belong together. I didn’t like Carly the first time around so needless to say, I don’t like her now. I hope Vivian buries Carly ALIVE AGAIN. Go Viv!

    Also, I hope that EJ is behind “the blonde lady” taking Sydney. This would be the ultimate betrayal for Sami and drive a wedge between Sami & EJ that could never be fixed. Sami & EJ just don’t work. Too much BAD history between them. I know Sami is no Saint, but EJ has done a lot of things…to me, more evil & without a heart. Although, I prefer Sami with Lucas; I will take Sami with Rafe (although I don’t see any chemistry). Since I am a long-time viewer, I prefer couples with l-o-n-g histories, like Alice/Tom, Maggie/Mickey, Bo & Hope; Doug & Julie. I wish Days would get back to the old time romance of Days past.

  83. From Debbie

    I agree 100% with #78. How can anyone think EJ and Sami make a good couple. Even if she has forgiven him for the rape, he is a criminal. Wouldn’t that go ever well with Roman and all the Brady bunch cops if they got together. I would really like it if all the kids ended up being Lucas’and it is found out that EJ forged the DNA tests so he could get closer to Sami. Again Sami and EJ do NOT belong together. I am sure he
    is the one who had Anna take Sydney. Sami and Rafe or Sami and a new improved Lucas (after rehab) but never Sami and EJ

  84. From Booo

    *lol* Call me crazy, but I would love to see Lucas and Sami back together. I LOVED them together!!!

  85. From patsy

    aNOTHER WEEK AND STILL THE NICOLE SHOW ,pLEASE CAN WE HAVE ONE DAY WITHOUT HER,i,M SO TIRED OF SEEING HER FACE EVERY SINGLE DAY .sHES A BEAUITFUL TALENTED LADY BUT PLEASE ENOUGHT IS ENOUGHT

  86. From Michele

    Could SOMEONE ANYONE please remind Sami that she took Belle away from her family! I understand that they are trying to change her but long time viewers can still remember everything she has done to her Mom, John, Lucus, her sisters, Auston,Will, Kate,Brandon, I could go on and on, and i think the writers should remember these thingss when they write her lines. Esp about what kind of a person would take a baby away from its family.

    Also, I agree with you #82, started watching Days with my grandmother and have been a Bo and Hope fan from the beginning.

  87. From Carol

    I do not like Melanie together. Anna took Sydney because she wants to get even for Tony’s death. I am sick and tired of the EJ and Sammie thing. Enough already pair Arianna with EJ. Lucas has no storyline. When is the new Will coming on? I certainly hope there are no more kids for Sammie. Its beginning to look like the Brady Bunch. Same story over and over. Interesting Nicole is in jail but Kate who tried to kill someone is not. On Days Crime does pay apparently.

  88. From Connie

    I agree that Days need to get on with things!!! Dragging things out loses watchers like me because I am so tired of weeks going by with each story. The writers must be having trouble coming up with new stories to keep beating the same one to death!!!

  89. From Brenda

    Sami and EJ — no not again
    Sami and Lucau —- not again
    Sami and Rafe — yes they both deserve some happiness with full custody of all Sami’s children …Sydney included (returned by Anna to be raised outside the Dimerra home)
    Hope and Bo — definetely
    Carly — not with Bo but maybe with EJ if he’s not in Jail
    for being the Drug Lord
    Justin gets back with Adrian after she comes to town for fight for their marriage
    Philip with Mel — not
    Mia and Will — sure why not
    Stephanie and her doctor — not
    John and Marlena need to be brought back as do some of the other Brady’s and what about Shane…..
    Its time for Days to stop rushing couples into marriage, etc because this always ends in disaster…I know boring if they take their time but what about morals………….
    Story lines take way to long and you are losing viewers…… Will Days be the next soap to go off the air…Hope not

  90. From Jean

    Anna taking Syd makes sense as revenge on the Dimeras, but how did she, and only she, know where Nicole was?

    You can tell the writers have never visited anyone in jail. In Salem, anyone can have a vist, anytime of the day or night with Nicole. They can stand as close as they like with no guard in sight. I know we’re supposed to suspend some belief in the goings-on, but these jail visits are so unrealistic!!

    I guess Mel knows about Philip’s amputated leg!

    Hope better watch out or she is going to end up like Brittany Murphy. She is looking more anorexic every week.

    Viv is a real hoot, great writing for her character, but get that poor woman a better hair style.

    See ya, Will. Let’s get another actor that doesn’t look so hang dog all the time, and his hair-do needs help too.

    OK, that’s my $.02.

  91. From Eve

    A lot of the characters have done some rotten things…okay…in real life same thing….it is called FORGIVENESS…I think it is great that Sami is changing…come on now people. There are still lots of villians on the show….Vivian for one, Kate for two, Victor for three and the list goes on. However…I did feel sorry for EJ yesterday…I don’t believe for a second the writers will have EJ behind the disappearance of his daughter. I use to be a big fan of BO and HOPE and I too go back to the beginning – where they were just dating as young teens…but the writers don’t have just reasons why Hope is not with Bo and that is bothering me. I say – get rid of Hope and Bo move on….I remember when Bo and Carly were in love. Hope stop finding every loose thread in finding an excuse not to be with Bo…

  92. From days-gone-by-4-ever

    spoiler cast alert @@@—brian ditillo contracts NOT renewed….@@@

  93. From days-gone-by-4-ever

    ..i’m working on the asumption that TPTB did not like his sour grapes interview…so he’s out.

  94. From Debbie

    Well if above spoiler is right, so much for Sami and Lucas. They were my second choice anyway. Sami and Rafe forever. . .

  95. From janiebell

    I read “that Roman hired Anna to keep Sydney safe”. Well that would go over as well as Anna working for Stefano. Would Roman do anything that would hurt Sami, Roman’s own daughter so much? I don’t think so.

  96. From janiebell

    Roman has been single way to long. Bring on Roman a love interest. Lets see, She should be an inch or two shorter than Roman, a redhead this time, {Marlena was blonde and Kate a brunette, so to even things out, bring Roman a beautiful well built redhead this time}. She should be a professional, maybe a lawyer or even a school teacher, just not a doctor or whatever business Kate is in. Have this lady love family and Caroline but most of all have her rilly love Roman and Roman loves her enough to finally get over “Dock”. They marry and live happliey everafter.

    Victor comes to his sences and kicks Vivian out, straightens up and becomes a good guy. Victor and Caroline get together and marry this time.

    Bring back Mickey for Maggie.
    Will&Mia
    Phillip&nobody
    Lucas and Sami
    Rafe and Stephany
    Bo and Hope
    Daniel and Carly
    Nathan and Malinie
    Chad and Rafe’s little sister
    Brady and Cholie
    Arieanna and a well connected likeable guy.

  97. From DJ

    Get real I am not sure why Anna was brought back, she could have stayed missing don’t care for her. I would like to see EJ & Sami with their children, Why not put Rafe and Carly together Bo & Hope, Phil & Mel send Stephany to be with her parents she falls in and out with every man see lay her eyes on. She is acting like a !&%$. I thought Nicole was leaving on maturnity leave please send her on I am sick of her crying over Syd. Mia need to get over Chad and move on with Will or vice versa.

  98. From jessica

    the kidnapping is getting really old now.. thwy keep dragging it on . i just hope anna decides to do the right thing and give sami and EJ back there baby. they have been through so much already. regarding b oand hope. i think they are going to get back together just for there daughter ciaras sake. i really think sami and EJ are goig to get back together and just grow up there kids.. when sami leaves rafe i think rafe is going to go to carley . theyt make a cute couple. mealnie and philip. thats no shock that there getting married and everyone knew she would NEVER say no to him because she always loved him. i think nathan and stephanie are addorable together! . with kate and stephano. i think kate is just using him so she doesnt have to go back to jail. braidy is just going to date nicole and everyone is going to live happily ever after. ! next year i think shawn , belle , and there little daughter is comming back from there boat cruz around the world. DAYS OF OUR LIVES WILL NEVER STOP AIRING ON T.V. because when all the adults now start getting old , there kids will be like them . and it will go on and on and on , but i loive days of our lives1! im 13 right now and i have watched it ever since i was 6.. im so attached ! i never miss it no matter how borring it is on some days

  99. From dayslover

    I agree that Hope and Bo need to stop being so immature and get back together. Karly is getting on my nerves. She can stay in Salem but stop ruining Bope’s marraige!The belong together. Hope is starting to make me mad too. Why can’t she just go back to Bo?
    As for the kidnapping story, I just want Sydney at home. They usually have a Christmas miracle, but not this year?! Anna has no purpose on the show. They need to bring back Belle, Shawn, and Clair. I love them sooo much! But of course Claire will come back as a teenager…
    Then there’s Will and Mia and Chad and Gabi. Mia and Will are the next Belle and Shawn. They are perfect for eachother. Chad and Gabi should go out too!
    Melanie and Philip are engaged??!! Steph and Nathan kissed?! Noooo! Nathan is such a good guy, and Steph is not a good girl. Melanie really deserves him. Not Philip. Philip is crazy.
