The next question that I have is about Gabi. She has been around Johnny for almost all of his life & it totally dumbfounds her as to why he’s acting like this & also, this is her babydaddy’s brother. Can you imagine the fall-out that she will face from Will when he learns that Satan has possessed his brother & Gabi having no clue used that against him to get the CEO position?
Then, there’s this: With how Johnny feels about his Nonno, with him being Stefano’s grandson, & that he idolizes Stefano & that he has Stefano’s fortitude, that he isn’t more dominant over his satan counterpart?
Because, I find it very odd & off-putting that we aren’t seeing how powerful Johnny can be against Satan, don’t you think?
The question that I have is that with how long Don Craig has been M.I.A & with how Alex Marshall had went to prison for arson, why is there a need to bring up characters that the younger characters have knowledge of, meaning, Xander for that matter or Abigail as well?
The next question with how long both Alex & Don have been gone for, who would care about them now?
I can’t see the need to kill Sarah much less, Abigail off. Did they or did they not, bring back Godfrey & Marci’s SaraNee & Abigail, so with bringing them both back with how long they had been on that island, they bring them back to murder them off?
They already had killed of Maggie’s son, Daniel, do you really think that she will survive losing another child, given that she had lost two, meaning, Daniel Jonas her daughter Summer, so is it wise for her to lose another child of her’s, given that she had also lost her adopted daughter, Janice?
Plus, Sarah’s Renee sees Xander as Quinn Redeker’s Alex Marshall. Yet, again, the writers don’t realize that Paul Telfer, the one that plays Xander was 3-4 years old when Redeker played Alex Marshall?
Then they have her believing that Chris Kositchek being the Salem Stalker, when others know that it was Andre DiMera who was. When they played up Marlena’s romance with Roman, John Black & Alex Marshall, that Alex Marshall was played by Wayne Northrop. Don’t you think that it’s highly odd that these writers are negating the show’s history?
Plus: There’s this to think about. I understand the story being very well done. Hands down to all of the actors involved with this story. I do see drama & suspense of the whole thing, & yes, I’m all for it. But, what I’m getting at is that this is the only offspring that Maggie has left. Do we really need to see two female Stefanos, one being Kristen & the other being Sarah’s Renee DuMonde, given that this Renee is inside Maggie’s daughter’s body ?
Think about it.
I get that the Sarah body isn’t married to anyone. I get that Renee is hopelessly in love with Tony. But, remember, when Will channeled his inner Stefano, given that he was once his mother’s father-in-law, it had his husband leaving him for another continent, didn’t it. Then, when they play up the story that has Sarah being herself again, if they go there, she would be held responsible for her actions & may face prison time for Renee’s crimes, & this woold be used by Gabi to get both Titan & DiMera now wouldn’t it, once she finds out that a Kiriakis believes she’s a DiMera, she would be able to blackmail the DeMira Family, ” GIVE ME THIS COMPANY OR I WILL HAVE ONE Of YOUR OWN BE TOSSED Into The Clink. Do you really think that’s wise to play up, given that it might be coming to light that Gabi’s actions are for nothing, given that Johnny’s possession may end up having her lose everything?
What I’m getting at is that Renee may have been Stefano’s daughter, but Chad was never Renee’s long lost brother, because Sampler played the character from 1981 to 1983, Renee was murdered in 1983, two years before Billy Flynn’s birth. I can see that others have told her that Chad is Stefano’s son, but in her mind, she knew all about her father, & when she was battling Anna, was before Billy Flynn was born & yet, she believes that Chad is her brother when the time period of her mind was way before CD played Chad.
It’s like the writers are having Renee jumping from one time frame & leaping into another one, meaning, her history with Anna to the time period as to where others are telling her about Chad, it off-putting.
But, what I’m getting at is that too much like when Will was
let to believe that he was EJ, & Enos III’s Roger had brought
up the Scooby-Doo gang can do a lot of tests to prove that he
really is Will, & that Roger had brought up of Will learning
that he really was Will, not EJ. You tell me do we need to see
that with Sarah ?Think about it, Maggie would go ballistic once she finds out
that her daughter believes she’s Anna’s worst nightmare.Then, the viewers today that are watching this now may
have no knowledge of Renee Du Monde, now do they?Could it be that Ted is Leo’s father?
Ted may have gotten a flesh wound from Tony.
Rolf learned that Ted was an alias that his
real name is Richard Cooper.Diana may have believed that Leo had murdered
his father.She & Ted have a history with each other.
Under Ted’s new alias fell in love with Craig who
cared for Ted’s flesh wound.The reason is so they can play up the terrors that
Leo suffered from Richard Cooper, he could form a
brotherhood with Will & Sonny, therefore, they
can play up of Brady, Chloe, Nancy, Sonny & Will
would learn as to who Craig’s new paramour is.It flies, right ?
I would rather see for the second time how beautifully & how magnificently played the whole story is. I don’t want to see the romance between Craig & Nancy, the reason being is because it hinders & downplays the groundbreaking story.
Remember, they did put it out there that this story is a groundbreaking story. So should it be quashed just so Craig go back into the closet, so Nancy wouldn’t have to face this or Chloe for that matter & pushing BradIcole together, or have Craig get what’s coming to him just because of what he did to his wife once he learns as to what his paramour’s history is ?
First: This show had put out the best story ever, the story that they had covered was Will’s comimg out story, it was magnificently done. the show had gotten GLAAD Awards for the depiction of it. Then, they got it the second time around by playing up the wedding, then the third time when they played out the show’s first gay triangle.
Now’s there chance to do that again. By playing up Craig’s romance, he finally coming out to his wife, his daughter & they need to not make it about themselves & loathing & despising as to what he had done, he finally found his Will Horton & the writers want to give him the shaft & not have that all, they need to destroy that just so they put BradIcole together & get rid of Craig living his truth, finally getting a chance to have some one to grow old with.
You tell me with what Will & Sonny had given the show, why don’t they want any of that?
I know that soaps are soaps & they play up the drama & the suspense, but they did with Will & Sonny & what they went through, why not do that for Craig & Leo instead of giving Craig the shaft all because he cheated on his wife>?
My question is this: It doesn’t matter if it’s about shock or not. What matters is that it was written for it to be a groundbreaking story. Look at how Patrika’s Nancy is handling this, Bjorlin’s Chloe, how she’s reacting to this, & Martsolf’s Brady & him seeing how broken Chloe is, her venting of how she’s hating her father for this. That’s what matters, not the endgame couple the writers want or not. That’s what I’m getting at.
I can’t see the need to shock to expose as to who Craig’s paramour or not. It shouldn’t matter as to who it is: If it’s Leo or a re-casted Paul, what matters is that they can’t just throw the story away & disregarding what the actors put all of their work into.
The main reason for this ground-breaking story is because of how long Will & Sonny had been gone for. Yes, granted Will & Sonny are coming back, but still, they are now married to each other & we have seen their romance.
Now we get to see the romance again, Craig finally finding his Sonny to his Will. We get a chance to see their love blossom, that Craig gets a chance to be Henry Higgins from May Fair Lady & seeing if Leo turns into Matthew Elias Doolittle Cooper.
Remember, this show has been getting extreme backlash because we aren’t seeing any romance whatsoever, now we have a chance to see that, so why the need to get rid of it to put the endgame couple into play that the writers want ?
I get that the end game for the writers are Brady & Chloe, I get that. Remember this: When it comes to Soaps anything is fair game, meaning, that anything can happen, & that anything is most likely to happen & in ways that are disastrous, are they not?
So my question is this why have the viewers see the end game, meaning, Chloe & Brady coming to join together as one & then put in what’s disastrous that that would end them.
Remember: Look at what Johnny is doing, it’s 40 minutes of DeMiraSatan, he just learned that his sister had sexual relations with his wife.
Do you really think that won’t go there for Chloe & Brady, when soaps have a history of playing that up to the hilt for the drama & suspense & in ways they don’t see coming.
Especially when this story involves Craig, & his groundbreaking story, why diminish that just for the writers to put their endgame into play?
It makes it look like that they don’t care at all of the story that is Craig’s groundbreaking story, all they care is their end game couple.
Don’t you think that Craig’s groundbreaking story should triumph the writer’s end game couple?
Think of this way: Chloe’s millions of sexual romps ended her relationship with Lucas, do we need to see Brady learning of her infidelities, given that she had them when she was with Lucas, who’s to say she will stay faithful to Brady, given her history is being thrown in her face, given that her daddy cheated on her mother with another man.
This pertains to Craig: It doesn’t matter if it’s over-done or not very imaginative. What matters is that it’s all about coming out late in life. Craig gets to see how this shatters Nancy, his daughter & Brady seeing how Chloe is handling this, doesn’t it?
When & if they play up as to who Craig’s paramour is will destroy Brady & Chloe in being with each other.
Let’s say this paramour of Craig’s is Leo. Chloe is no Helen Keller, she would have known as to what Leo did to Brady & his family’s business, now wouldn’t she?
Let’s say this paramour ends up being a re-casted Paul, this will also end any chance of Brady & Chloe. This is where I’m playng Devil’s Advocate, let’s say that this paramour is Paul, & he & Craig marry, that would make Chloe, Brady’s niece because Paul’s new husband is Chloe’s father, right?
This is too reminiscent of what happened with Paul, Sonny & Will: What I mean is that Sonny never gotten over Will, that he never fallen out of love with Will. Yes, Will cheated on Sonny with Paul, the main reason as to why Sonny wanted to marry Paul, is because it was like welcoming Will into his marriage bed, because as to who Will had slept with, by marrying Paul, is like welcoming Will into his bed with, given as to who he had slept with.
What makes anyone think that pairing is the gospel truth? Think about it, With Rikaart’s portrayal of Leo, do you really think, that he’s capable of loving Craig the way that Craig loves him?
Think about it this way, with Craig being a doctor, Paul being a former baseball player & that Paul was in a wheelchair when he left Salem, Leo is very much like Jack MacFarland of Will & Grace, toooo extremely queenly, do you really think that Craig would very much accepting of that?
So the question is this, if he is Leo, meaning, Craig’s lover, & Craig learns of what Leo had done, once Brady brings up Leo’s history, then where would it go, once Craig learning of what Leo had done, can you really seeing him defending Leo, once he learns as to what Leo had done to his grandson, remember, his daughter was Will’s step-mom, wasn’t she, given that she was once married to Will’s father?
Think about it this way: When I had gotten an issue of Soap Opera Digest a time ago, they had put it out there of Greg Rikaart’s return to Days of Our Lives, & wasn’t the one on NBC, it was for the Christmas film A Very Brady Christmas. So I can’t see Craig’s paramour being Leo.
Then there’s this: Craig may not have known as to what Leo had done to Will, but, I can’t see Craig being sexually attracted to Leo, much less sleeping with him, given the way the NBC soap depicted Leo, meaning, the old adagio, a leopard can’t change his spots, meaning, I can’t see that Craig would stand for that coming from anyone, much less it coming from Leo, now can you?
