for E.J., Nicole and Sami, and is just biding his time. He’s not afraid of E.J. (who would be afraid of that wuss’ threats anyway), and he knows he has Nicole right where he wants her, and Sami, well, let’s just say that he knows he can blow all three of them right out of the water anytime he wants to.
but deep down I do feel like for years and years, Carrie was the ‘Golden Child’ and Sami got the ‘left-overs’ in the parent/child love department. I know not many will agree with me, but that’s fine — Sami is a core character and didn’t Ken Corday say that the storylines would be revolving around the core families, specifically mentioning the Hortons, Bradys, DiMeras and Kiriakises, with a sprinkle of new characters who will be involved in their lives. So far, that is what I’m seeing, and I do think it’s getting better. I’m actually liking this storyline between Carrie and Sami, and hope they continue to unravel their lives. Sami throwing in that remark about Carrie running off with Mike was a good start to realizing that someone is doing their history homework, and that to me is a good thing. Rewriting characters’ lives and traits is never the way for any writer to go. Sami and Carrie are oil and water, and are a major part of this show’s history. I just hope the writers stay true to their relationship, or at least get to the core of their problems, and to me that will always be the triangle of Roman/Marlena/John.
the realm of "cuckoo" in that she is now actually believing her own lies. She has herself convinced that Austin should be with her, has lied to Melanie about sleeping with him, and has totally left the planet regarding her thinking that Austin deceived her. This could prove to be a pretty meaty role for Kate Mansie if the writers wanted to get into a mentally disturbed Abigail, possibly brought on by her believing Jack lied to her, abandoned her, rejected her family ….. all now coming back to swallow poor Abbey ….. who will now sort of be facing an illness of her own and not being able to handle Austin’s rejection of her for Carrie. Could be a splendid storyline for Kate (who I think would do a good job with the role), but I’m not convinced these writers could pull it off.
after Brady tried to get Madison to at least SAY SOMETHING (she was really starting to annoy me more than Ian). Ian said something like "let’s try this again, shall we? I’m Ian McAllister, Madison’s loving husband." However, Brady once more ignored him and went back to insisting Madison say something whether or not it was true, which she again decided to simply clam up. I personally was happy Brady walked out on her.
from the stars to the music, including the singing and the dancing, to the way it is portraying the true life story of Marilyn (who really did worry that she inherited her mother’s mental illness). There may be lip syncing, but I don’t mind. You really have to be looking for it to see it. That’s the fault of those behind the scenes who never learned how to match up the sound with the actual movement of the lips. Katharine McPhee could sing underwater and still sound good. I’m not so sure the blond has it yet. I just am amazed with the whole show so far and cannot wait until the awards come out for this season’s shows. Smash WILL be walking away with lots of them. As far as Angelica Houston is concerned, she’s another reason I love this show. She’s is a fantastic actress who can sell anything/anyone she portrays. She is talent personified. Deborah Messing is doing a great job with drama. I’m so used to her playing comedy that it was hard to visualize her in her role, but she is fantastic so far. All this talent, plus Steven Spielberg as one of the EP’s. It was born to be a winner, and I see Katharine McPhee’s career skyrocketing from it.
that Ian would have a connection to Madison, Kate, Victor, Quinn, and now I read Sonny. Hmmm, wonder where Sonny will come into the picture. Anyway, I think he is great. The perfect villain….rich, powerful, controlling, and everything a true soap villain should be. He sure makes the DiMeras look like weaklings. Even Victor is no longer what he used to be when we talk about villains. Now, though, I wish they would have kept Vivian, because if he does turn out to be Quinn’s father, that would have made for some great story-telling. Too bad.
just a carbon copy of Lost with a lot of fast-paced, hard to follow action, in most instances going nowhere.
for a 30-33 year old male, gorgeous, able to speak with a strong Italian accent….must be over 6′ tall. I could be entirely wrong; but what do you want to bet this is the real E.J.? The spoiler I read claims that Stefano breaks down and cries after he opens Alice’s envelope. I’m starting to get very interested in this s/l now.
It’s probably some tiny little country owned by the Alamains and now ruled by Vivian, who were all determined to either get John back, or get back at John, one way or another. (kidding, of course).
then she straight-up deceived Brady and Victor and everyone else, including Sami, who, by the way, owes Brady an apology, since Sami placed the blame for someone being hurt in the relationship squarely on Brady when it was Madison who would be doing the hurting. Brady, you should never criticize Sami for her mistakes with men, since you are so much like her with the women in your life. Why, you ask … because you leap before you look.
