Now that I’ve managed to watch 2weeks worth of shows I just have a few thoughts. First of all regarding Nick. I’m not sure what others were expecting of him, but it makes perfect sense that he would be low key and somewhat depressed. He’s in prison. If anyone was expecting happy andbubbly Nick, they must think prison Disneyland. I think his acting appropriate. Second of all, why the hell are we revisiting Sami and EJ? Can no one see that the majority of viewers can’t stand this pairing? I had to ff through their scenes it was so sickening. I did like Sami’s blue dress, so that made me watch a little. I was getting my hopes up for Sami and Rafe, what the heck happened? And lastly, why are the writers turning Nicole back into the master manipulator and putting Jennifer and Daniel together again? My gosh! Jack just died! Leave Dan and Nicole together and let Jennifer grieve.
especially where Nick is concerned, as well as pairing Sami and E.J. I mentioned practically the same feelings about Nick in another thread. Nick is a very interesting character to me, and a lot of cast will be drawn into his storyline, especially the Horton clan, and I think that’s good. The more interaction characters have who normally do not interact in a story line, the better I like it.
As for Sami and E.J., although I think they do have chemistry, they should never be a couple, nor should they be friends with benefits, and possibly not even friends; but, responsible parents sharing their children’s lives ….. probably, that would be the best way for them to go, since neither of them wind up paying for their crimes anyway. I do think Sami and Rafe are eventually going to be put back together again, and as much as I love Bryan Dattilo, if they don’t take him out of Sami’s orbit and give him a life of his own, he may as well say goodbye yet again. Right now Lucas is nothing more but a fish out of water.
Nicole is slowly returning to Nicole, and I’m okay with that. Ari is such a good actress, she can play just about any role and still make me like her. I just want weepy, whiny, wishy-washy Nicole gone.
I do have to say, I really like the way the new writing is going so far, and hope it continues. The ratings have improved, and even NBC is promoting the show through the day now more than usual through daytime promos. Nice going NBC, SONY and Corday Productions. It’s about time you are all stepping up and supporting DOOL. Let’s face it, improved ratings are what it’s all about when contract time rolls around.
of Lucas remaining if he’s just going to be an outsider? Maybe there’s something brewing for him.
As for “stepping up and supporting DOOL,” tv is a product like anything else. I would not unconditionally remain a viewer if I’m getting boring, listless entertainment like the way Days was going there for awhile. I’m glad ratings are rebounding and hope it’s not a temporary boost just due to viewer curiosity. Days now needs to put out good drama to keep the people tuning in.
