Next Week On DAYS: EJ and Abigail Have Sex? Watch the Promo!

It looks to be a very dark week for EJami fans when friends and former enemies EJ DiMera (James Scott) and Abigail Deveraux (Kate Mansi) seemingly hit the sheets in this brand new promo from NBC for next week’s drama on Days of our Lives!  

The promo tag line says, “They’ve become friends … and then some … but no one saw this coming!”  However, it seemed apparent from Kate Mansi’s recent press interviews at Day of DAYS this past November that something from Abigail’s past would be revisited, now we know that it turns out to be none other than EJ!

While Sami (Alison Sweeney) and EJ are having some marital woes over Sami’s part in Nick’s (Blake Berris) “murder” and the cover-up, and the recent mess and fallout from Brady (Eric Martsolf) and Kristen’s (Eileen Davidson) marriage and EJ not revealing what he knew of his sister’s plot to Sami,  the couple has seem to be on some shaky ground!

Watch the new DAYS promo after the jump!  What are your thoughts on EJ and Abby having sex?  Do you think the promo is just a big tease … or do they actually do the deed?  And, do you think James Scott and Kate Mansi have on-screen palpable chemistry with each other?  Weigh-in!

I think I saw it coming the other day when EJ approached Abby in the town square. Abby’s reaction when she turned around oozed chemistry. I love that DAYS pushes the envelope on the taboo.

I love it to!!!

“…I love that DAYS pushes the envelope”

and that’s all it is… simply forging ahead with intrigue

excitement, daring, interludes betwixt fact, fiction, love in the afternoon with layers of must have

Loving this, I was an ejami fan…..no more Sami big mouth….old and tired

Yes! Saw it coming ever since EJ and Abby connected over her fathers book. She’s been wanting to get her hands on an older guys for some time now, remember Austin. Lol

I didn’t see it coming but holy do they ever have chemistry. I was pleasantly surprised. I actually had to rewind and watch it about 4 times. EJ has chemistry with Sami too but its getting old with all this fighting lately. All I can say is I think his character is amazing. The day I watched him on his knees crying while begging Stefano for Sami’s freedom I thought this guy deserves an Emmy. Amazing performances and great chemistry. He has become one of my favorite characters.

I totally agree with you and the Emmy. James Scott is totally awesome!!

Love it! Haven’t had any real hot chemistry in a while!

I’m impressed Days is going there with Ej and Abby and keeping the show unpredictable and exciting! I do think Ej and Abby have had some sexy undercurrents. I can’t wait to watch not only this scene but what happens next as a result! This is just what Days needs to keep viewers on their toes because I can guarantee watching this, no one is going to complain the show is languishing.

I agree..Hands down DOOL is the best soap in the air, AND that is not easy for me to say since I love GH..I been a fan since after the Summer Olympics of 2012, and it just gets better and better…Gary Tomlin is so talented and legendary..Everywhere he goes, he turns the shows around, OLTL anyone? Christopher Whitesell needs to be given credit too, great job!..I like this new storyline..Kind of shaking things up..This show right now is using the simple and old school elements of story telling!! A1

Days! since their emmy win for best show, year 2012! has steered, ALL cylinders, on track, full STEAMy ahead!

on board… Salem’ites

Days most certainly is not – languishing- but persevering… in a league and class all it’s own

love the acting, writing, and direction.

I love your comments,agree with you 100%

I agree completely! You said it so much better than I could!

It made me throw up a little in my mouth. And really, they’re friends? Seriously? Not only do I think EJ wouldn’t do this to Chad, I DEFINITELY don’t think he’d do it to Sami. I mean he’s engaged to the love of his life. He’s finally got a chance to have everything he ever wanted (his family) and he’s potentially screwing it up with this dimwit? Anywho, hopefully, it’s just a kiss. Now lets get back to EJAMI and put this crap behind us.

DAYS must never make EJ and Sami happy! This is great!!!

I so agree…I really don’t see any chemistry between these two characters, sorry!..I like her scenes with the character of Lucas and see lots of chemistry there.

Hey Omar… Lucas is Jennifers, Abigails’ moms, little brother. Therefore Lucas is Abigails’ Uncle…So an Abigail and Lucas pairing would never happen.

I don’t know what to think of EJ and Abigail hooking up though…, I guess we shall see…

AGREED!!

Im actually disgusted. I can’t believe that EJ would cheat on Sami. I am a diehard Ejami fan but honestly this is the nail in the coffin. Sami will never forgive him and I don’t blame her. He lied to her and she was upset. He is still lying and she has every right to still be upset. I’m so bored with the entire show that I just read spoilers now. The show has gone around in circles and I think EJ will only kiss Abigail to distract her from speaking to Hope. I hope Sami finds someone that is going to treat her right. Good uck with the ratings.

Sorry name is Avelina. Lol

Another disgusting “affair” for Abby. Did she learn nothing from her dalliance with Austin? :angry:
EJami are having enough “conflict” in their relationship already…they do NOT need any more! This is a gag-worthy turn of events if it actually happens!

I thought.. Ms. Abbs tryst with Austin… was a marvel

it was comedic… because of Patrick Muldoon… and it was his acting… that showcased how delightful it was to get to know… Kate Mansi… and now… with EJ… this is womanhood passion… and i’m going their

the fallout and history in the making… for these two… and we never discount Sammi… and we go along for the ride

I agree with Michelle. It just seems totally out of character.

I agree it is out of character for EJ. I’m not liking it.

I agree with you. Abigail needs to whine up pregnant now by Chad by the way is he coming back! What does she do anyway never see her working or going to school.

I totally agree with Michelle – EJ and Sami together and he would never hurt her and his brother Chad. I think it was a stupid lonely momentary lapse – hopefully this stupid thing wont come out and screw up S and E – I so want to see their wedding…they are so good together!

If ej and Abby sleep together I will not watch show anymore . EJ loves Sammi.

I have watched days for 20 years and i am done!

You took the thoughts out of my head!

Agreed

I agree. I pray this is only a dream.

I completely agree this was a disgusting scene in my opinion how can ej do that to the love of his life even though they’ve had many downs. And for Abagail to sleep w the brother of the man that took her virginity. Pretty gross. Hoping Ej ends this fake love affair and ends w Sami and live happily ever after.

They ( EJ and Abbi ) will do it again, I am sure of it. I do not know where this is headed but it’s no good. This started out as almost a lark for EJ . The ploy to shut Abbi up took the path of no return. I believe the writers are trying to draw something out of Abbi which she does not inherently possess…..that is, female magnetism. She is no vixen. Sami will not take this sitting down…God help those going up against a woman scorned. Sami finding out is inevitable and more fool she if she forgives EJ. Abbi , in my opinion .has no direction. She is just a patsy with scary eyes. She is actually here, there and everywhere , going no place and doing nothing. I do not get her presence in the soap. I just don’t get the attraction, Frankly, I can’t see her with anyone except perhaps the DiMera butler. It will definitely be interesting to see all the drama (once this stupid affair is revealed) unfold.

Back in the day (of soap opera days gone by – no Days pun intended), this type of story would have resulted in Abigail getting pregnant. Who couldn’t see this hot romance comong? All of the signs were there, with EJ and Abigail bonding over talks about her father…AND…Sami kicking EJ out of her romantic life! This is a no-brainer – unless the writers have an unexpected twist. (Yes, I went there!)

No! No! No! Not only is it sickening but here we go again with an EJ and Sami betrayal. Don’t tell me – Sami will go back to Rafe or Lucas – same ‘ole, same ‘ole recycle every two to three years. Additionally, another recycle of Abigail’s attraction to a man in a supposedly committed relationship much the same as she did with Carrie’s husband. Would absolutely LOVE to see a Hope/Rafe hookup. Would at last be a decent couple in the mix who are younger, established, sharp, yet intriguing. These two are perfect for one another. I like Daniel and really don’t mind the Dan/Jennifer hookup. Don’t know why everyone is so against it. His character really is a good guy. Do not like the spoiler saying JJ and Theresa just can’t fight the feeling. Sickening! How about Theresa and Brady?? LOVE NICOLE and ERIC! Getting a little sick of Marlena. She should be grateful to Nicole for saving Eric’s life! LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the rap Jen Lilley and MeredithSLynn made in addition to all the appearances of cast, crew, writers, staff, etc; HOWEVER, WHY, OH WHY was Allison Sweeney included?? She added nothing! Can’t Days do anything without her?? She is not the show, regardless of Mr. Corday’s thoughts. Frankly, with all due respect, not only myself but family and friends who watch are getting a little sick of her and her screeching. It’s the same thing over, and over, and over, and over, year after year. She really is overly exposed. One question, can she not dress age appropriately??? Miss Victor’s wit and humor; enjoyed his ‘bad guy’ in saving Brady from Kristen; loved his apology to Eric; glad he and Maggie are back together. The show needs them. LOVE DAYS, loyal watcher as are many family members and friends, but must say, with the exception of Arianne Zucker and actress who plays Caroline Brady, actors could use a few Master Classes from Eileen Davidson. My gosh, she is absolutely wonderful. Such a natural and really does not appear to be acting at all. Everything about her acting from expressions, gestures, the way she presents the writers’ words are wonderful. What a loss!

the one thing… I can say… counter, if you will… DAYS and soaps in general… may have to regurge… but… DAYs .. cast is so thorough… that all the generations… are so adept at mixing in and mingling…. that… it’s up to the writers… to gell… and bond these characters

GH… goes for shock to the system.. if you will.. with the bait and hook… mode… and it’s apparent… they have to….

whereas… DAYS cohesive mix… job done.. by the superb acting troupe that DAYS brings… to the canvas… is much more natural.

I loved your quip about Victor… LOL… he’s a charmer, tough miscreant, adversary… and cream puffs because he truly now knows what love is… and lo and behold.. it’s with Mother Horton… Maggie! I love this romance. This show is amiss when these two are not as one.

it’s time for the writers… to forefront… Justin and Adrienne… to show an aligned upfront delivery for the nuWill and spot on HOT Sonny!

Eileen Davidson.. as Kristen…. ( please, please, please, Ms. Davidson… rethink your position.. with regard to returning to Salem)

so agree… she is bar none… Master Class.

DAYS hasn’t let up since her exit… so… i’m not worried…. I hope the best for nuWill

I don’t think Sweeney (Sami) is renewing her contract… I suppose this is the reason for this turn , or twist, of events.

Eew! Not only this is OOC for fair Abigail but I mean, ” EJ, c’mon!?”. This the girl your little bro, who looks up to you, loves. Abigail is Will and Ally’s cousin for crying out loud, kinda Johnny and Sydney’s step-cousin?. This is disgusting on so many levels. So Sami banned you from her bed? Big deal! You lied to her, are betraying her trust just like you’re betraying Chad’s, all for Kristen who wouldn’t think twice before selling you down the river. EJ’s so self-destructive. He doesn’t know how to be and remain happy. Of all the women in Salem, it had to be Abigail? Well, I guess Sami’s going cougar with T very soon. I know, this is a soap, everything’s overdramatic and it has little to do with real life. However, I really don’t get this pairing:it’s gross, just gross.

T

T sparkles…. his eyes are afire with tease, catch your breath… and reel something…

quick

cause… let him charm you… let him dalliance… so what.. he’s cute, love when he smiles… and plays you back

Anna, I assume you are being facetious with the T comment, but it did make me laugh. 🙂 ICAM about EJ and Abby – the whole thing is disgusting for all the reasons you’ve given. Both characters end up trashed by this pairing, and no one will ever be able to look at Abby again without thinking she’s the show’s first bore wh*re. And EJ’s going to give up 7 years of unyielding devotion to his Samantha for this little twit? Please! Days may have jumped the shark.

I totally agree. This was so wrong, Im done watching. Been a fan for 20 years and this was the worst pairing they could have come up with!

AGREED! Yuck!

I am so done with EJ ….. jerk!

Great chemistry between EJ and Abigail, gee’s (can’t he have Sami & Abigail)LOL!!!!

LOL

OH.. there is so much to where do we go from here….

this is LUST – one of the seven deadly sins! ?

who cares… it’s walk on egg shells… don’t question the feeling…

but betrayal is a predicament… i don’t dare tread… but…

just on Serial

whew! love the treats DAYS culls

No one saw this coming? jimh(leave it to beaver) did– he predicted this weeks ago, maybe even further back, I don’t recall exactly when, but he called it, way to go jimh.

if he’s right about… anne… being the daugter of susan martin? i think he said…

well.. he’s batting over 500

and that’s saying something

love this canvas

I am so very disappointed in this union. I have been watching Days for 37 years and I am truly upset. Sami and EJ belong together. why do soaps not show that couples can last!!!! I may stop watching if EJ and abby get together. It will be tough, but i think the writers got this one way wrong.

i simply have to put out there…

in relation.. to this… compared to say… GH and Y&R… they are walking the plank… and damning themselves to rock bottom

DAYS – with pick and choose with superlative Cast….

simply writes and goes there… and it’s a feast for the mindset who dare

Huh?

I simply must put out there…..Patrick why do you persist in writing in code? I get what you say, but can you say it for the layman? I go cross-eyed each time I try to decipher what you right. By the by, I do appreciate your style of writing, but this is not the place for it. Trust me , it falls on deaf ears, as it were.

Write….not right…lol

I have not been this excited in a while! They would be a hot couple! I hate EJami!

someone… said it perfectly… Sammi… is more DiMera than holier than thou Brady…

stalwart and family loyalty is one thing… but she goes over and beyond… why?

seeing her screech and lament how she and her family would never align and would fight the DiMera’s for all their worth… well.. get with the program Sammi… you meet him 1/2 way… thee man EJ… and he wouldn’t have to meander

wouldn’ it have been a nice change… had she simply stood by her man… Stefano included… had they married… this would have been her family… she’s living in the manse… to acknowledge what she stood to gain… and stopped fighting her feelings and love for her man… EJ… and the rest of Salem be damned…

all this fighting… kiss and make up… was and could get repetitive… so… now it’s EJ turn… to distract

why does it have to be Sammi …. although… I do love her with Rafe… and heck… Lucas

I agree, this is the most excitement I’ve seen in a long time. Sami doesn’t deserve to be with anyone. I really like the spark between E J and Abby and believe this will be an exciting change for the show. Now Abby needs to get pregnant!!

I’ve never seen much to the character of Abby. She’s the annoying daughter of Jenn, who’s become full of herself & one of the most self-righteous people on the show. Abby’s a bore, whether she’s lying & obsessing over a married man [Austin] or diddling between two guys that she can’t make up her mind about. What in the world would a man like EJ see in a twit like that? If Corday & the writers rip apart EJami, they can pretty much kiss the show goodbye. The sizzle of EJami is what drives the ratings up. Break them up for Abifail and down they’ll go.

I digress… somewhat

I think you’re confusing… Ms Abbs for Jennifer

Jenn… gets so haggie maggied out… and deer with headlights scares her

I love the energy with Abbi and JJ… dang… thank her lucky stars… Melissa Reeves OWES her stifling career to her onscreen children

it’s the dynamics between brother and sister… that deserve to be reeled

Love what JJ and Abbs contribute

Please enumerate, Patrick…what do these siblings contribute?

Yes…I agree… I am done with this show

Could not have said it better myself…thank you, Chloe

Guess I was way off. I would have bet they were gearing Abby up for lesbian romance with the mysterious Jordan. Thought I saw lots of hints in that direction.

Jordan… is a FUN mystery to behold

despite her lack of mixing in yet… with full on cast… she’s not lacking in the wonderment … where’s she headed… she’s tantalizing and loaded.

think back to her show on AMC.. I could just watch her… to and fro… she reels magnetic

hey… if I have to throw in Rafe’alicious… then so be it

this burgeoning… romance… be it Kate or Jordan…I accept

I wish…

I am thinking I am liking it..

It makes me sick that after 7 years of waiting and watching, hoping that our favorite couple will be together, that the writers do something so stupid as to have EJ cheat on Sami just to keep Abigail quiet about the text from Nick? Lots of angst for EJami and the tons of fans who want them to finally be together after Sami’s realization and admitting her feelings for EJ last January. Who would have thought one year later after her incarceration for Joe Bernardi’s murder and EJ giving up everything for her; the amazing love letters to each other while she was in jail, that the writers would have them go backward in their relationship and tease us with EJ’s possibile infidelity!!!!! I won’t give up on them and only hope that the promo is not what it seems to be!

The EJ that I know and love wouldn’t be unfaithful to Sami no matter what situation they are in. She said that she aches for him and loves him but can’t trust him because she feels in her gut that he’s lying about knowing what Kristen did to Eric. In real life would something like this happen? He said he only found out about it one hour before the wedding. But, he didn’t tell her that he did know about the drugging of Eric. How much longer do we have to tolerate the angst that EJ and Sami are going through when we, the viewers know how much the characters love each other. James Scott and Alison Sweeney are phenomenal actors and are amazingly portraying the love that EJ and Sami have for each other and the anguish they are feeling by not being together.

Let’s hope that there is not the fallout from this encounter between EJ and Abby that EJami fans are being led to expect!!!!!

35 Years of watching Days here…. I remember the first day that Sami showed up in Salem.. I am glad that the current writers know her history and respect that. Sami is the Susan Lucci of today… except Sami is known for bad weddings and weddings that don’t happen.. I was really happy with the dialogue between Sami and EJ on Friday’s episode..

I will be disappointed the day that SAMI does get married……. She is not meant to be married in soap life…

Bravo Days Writers… Bravo!!

I agree, Tsuds, 100%

Sammi is the catalyst for so much that drives DOOL and in Salem

no wonder.. it was Alison Sweeney… in the trying times of keeping days afloat

their is no reason to tame.. tie down… render her figured out…

Sammi being Sammi… just is

Definetely puts a little wrench in EJami!! I love that they are doing this. It’ll be great to see EJ doing something other than hold Sami’s purse.

I don’t think they will hit the sheets. I was grossed out by watching this. They have no chemistry, even the liittle picture shown above shows how awkward it looks

I would…. get a little tired.. of Sammi.. pedestalling.. her family and virtue…

the focus.. should.. and always will remain.. within the confines of the relationship…

anything.. else.. be it family or otherwise.. is “secondary”

———–

James Scott is reeling SEXY… charisma… through the roof tantalization.. with Ms. Abbs

and there we have it…

let’s give Abbs… a show

counter with… a DiMera and male trait that reels libidinous appetite

this is replete with intrigue and muster for Abbs to showcase… along with through the roof intrigue

love in the afternoon

i’m invited

HELL TO THE YEAH…James Scott is a HELLUVA SEXY-ASS DUDE…HOLLA!!!!!

I love this pairing….the hottest thing on Days that I’ve seen in a while…rekindling my waning interest!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please don’t let this happen!!!Sammy and EJ are meant to be together!!! Abby and EJ together is SICK!!

This will keep viewers on hit toes. Folks will be tuning in on Monday. I hope this does not go all the way. I want EJ and Sami to reunite and marry happily no later than Fall 2014.

I dont think this is long arc. Just a final complication before they finally commit. I have been counting on a grand EJ and Sami wedding.

This arc was leaked back in 2012 as a possibility. It has just taken time to bring it to screen.

There has been so many stubborn, secrets it will just all manifest into a giant ball of lies that EJ and Sami will have address together because there love is indestructible.

Days has the writing team now to add intrigue and angst without killing the Gilded Ejami.

It is EJ and Sami in the end for DAYS. That is the golden ticket. AND I want a glamorous and authentically romantic wedding in Ireland. Days can sell limited seats to the wedding and reception. I have my frequent flyers points ready for Dublin airport.

Never give up on ejami

There has been so many stubborn, secrets it will just all manifest into a giant ball of lies that EJ and Sami will have address together because there love is indestructible.

this is perfect

you have two characters.. who are driven, fiercely loyal… to their respective families… and boy… do these two reel a passion… unlike…

I render these two in the same context as say: who’s afraid of Virginia Woolf… imagine… Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton

EJ and Sami reel… dark, mystery, layers, immaturity, (business minds aside) they are electric… reminiscent of days of ole… as they create a semblance of hell fire and brimstone… these two are stuck together… all in a good way

both are so alike… the male and female versions of each other

This is gross, wrong, and ew. WHY is this show seemingly incapable of writing a viable, age appropriate storyline for a young performer wih the caliber, appeal, and star quality of Kate Mansi? They trashed her character a couple years ago by having her go psycho after twice her age Austin. Then they crammed her into a nowhere nonexistent triangle with Chad and Cameron. Now they are putting her into EJ’s orbit? DAYS used to be the go to show for awesome supercouples that you rooted for to be together. Now they go for shock value and scandal. EJ, despite his flaws, is a loyal family guy. He would never get down with Abigail knowing how much his brother Chad love her. If their aim is to make EJ look like a desperate, creeping old pervert who will lay down with any young blonde, then they are accomplishing that goal.

Exactly. You’ve covered it all.

It’s disgusting, and Days is counting on that disgust to reel in more viewers.

Hope it backfires for them.

I agree 100%. I’m really disturbed right now. As much as I love EJ – this is just all wrong. Please if anyone is reading this – change this storyline!

WOW WOW WOW, did not see this coming, if Sami finds out the fireworks will be AWESOME! It seems a little bit wrong, but at the same time I am intrigued as to where the writers are going to go with it – Days you have me hooked!!

if you are captivated…

EJ with Sami
EJ with Abbs

then so be it… it’s done

wallah… enjoy the feast and bargain nothing… layers will unfold

a disheveled mess will ensue and let the drama begin

EJ would NEVER do this to Sami. She is and has always been the one love of his life. Days writers have done some really crappy things to us EJami fans over the years, but this will be the absolute worst. And it makes no sense because of two things: 1 Like I said already, EJ would never do this to Sami and he would sure in the hell never put another woman before her. 2 Abby dumped Chad. She knows that Chad had a good heart in general, and she knows that EJ is WAY worse than Chad when it comes to morals. Chad looks like a saint in comparison. If she got rid of him for lesser things, she would NEVER get with the likes of EJ. If they go there, and have him lying/covering up the truth from Sami just to destroy them again at the last minute with it, I AM DONE. After 18 years of watching, DONE. I’ve waited for this to happen for what 8 years, and they give a little tae away give a little take away.. But if they do this and ruin them, they will be done because we know that she will never forgive him. They both have a lot more invested in each other this time around, and there would be no going back. I don’t understand why the writers so desperately want us to hate this pairing? They’ve tried everything. Can’t you give them a real shot without making one of them screw it up big time like this? Do you want to lose a majority of fans? Because you will.

“…They both have a lot more invested in each other this time around,”

it would seem this way… wouldn’t it?

however… I still grandstand… if I was EJ… i’d be more than a little put off.. by Sami’ it’s my way or the highway… fierce loyalty is one thing… but taking for granted.. that your life partner… will look the other way… and concede

he’s so in love with… consumed with… Sami… that it’s all he can do.. but shake her up

an affair won’t bode well… or sit well with either of them…

EJ has certainly been put out… with Rafe… Lucas…

drama begets drama… and these two certainly do not shy away from passion

and that fine line… will be crossed by either or… one of these days

Patrick, you conveniently forget that EJ set this in motion with his fierce loyalty to his family i.e. Kristen, so you can’t call Sami out on it when EJ is doing the same to the same degree. I get you’re into this happening because it creates what you consider to be good soapy drama, and it satisfies your need to have Sami punished for whatever ills you harbor against the character. The problem with this storyline is that its very foundation defies the character tenet Days created for EJ seven years ago – that his loyalty to Sami superseded any to his family. For this story to work, we’re expected to believe that EJ would have placed loyalty to his adopted sister above his loyalty to Samantha, that he would risk losing his Samantha forever for a lie she’s already intuited. Days violated its own character bible for shock value and cheap thrills. Instead of anticipating this story, we’ll be left with a WTF throughout.

No… No… No…

This is one of the greatest moves ever on Days. I have been watching Days from the very start and I am so so happy for this storyline. The chemistry between those two actors is one of the best I’ve seen on this show. The original chemistry between EJ and Sami has been gone for a long time. It was good at first, but now it is gone Their scenes with each other seem extremely forced. Good writing, Days! Looking forward to Monday’s show.

Their scenes with each other seem extremely forced.

I don’t see this … yet…. more repetitive… and this avenue will shake things up… for a lot more than just Sammi and EJ

a vested interest will stir, heat, and desire

isn’t this better than Daniel and Jenn

Considering how Sami has treated EJ in the last month or so i am not surprise. The EJAMi fight is getting old and I am open the possibility for EJ to move on from Sami or Nicole. Time for him to experience a new kind of love. I love EJAIL/EJABBY already!

“…Time for him to experience a new kind of love.”

Kate Mansi has the acting chops to heat things up… maneuver… EJ and Abbs motivations

it’s not like she’s pigeonholed… Jezebel, Lolita, or Mary ingalls wilder.. for that matter

This is terrifitc–bringing together a Horton and a DiMeara is way, way better than a Brady/DiMeara matchup. Who would’ve thunk it? Certainly not this viewer. Bring it on!

hey… doesn’t it remind you of Jennifer and Peter Blake…

Man… he was the bomb!

talk about frustration, direction, and let the chips fall where they may

LOL

muster i’m in – tantalizing and upheaval

I mentioned this would happened when i read somewhere that Abigail has an afair with someone that catches viewers off guard…cant wait for the reaction of Jen and especially Sami if and when they find out…i was originally hoping for an Abigail/Danial pairing during his split from Jen…this would have been a nice reworking of the Julie/Doug/Addie triangle from the 1970s but maybe an Abigail/E.J/Sami triangle will be just as good!!!

I am sorry but I think Abby is seriously damaged! She has this dark desire for the wrong men. if Jennifer ever finds out about her and E.J. it may cause her to have a massive breakdown, considering what she just went thru with J.J.

I think it will end badly and Abby will be racing to the abbey!!! Her Great Aunt Marie was a nun.

theres nothing wrong with that dark desire for the wrong – macabre

Abbs is out of the golden circle… she’s steering her will and we’ll throw in hopefully she won’t totally abandon everything

LOL @4

she’ll race to the abbey

Macabre, Patrick? This is not a melodrama…where’s the blood? We are not talking about the dark side here. And, yes, people cheat all the time…we are human. The problem I have is cheating with Abbi, a holier-than-thou hypocrite. And, please stop trying to emulate Poe…what are you talking about? Gibberish.

I am hoping that this is either A). a daydream of Abby’s. or B). happens after Sami rejects EJ’s ultimatum and breaks off their relationship. Because if this EJ/Abby thing happens while Ej is still engaged to Sami I WILL NOT continue to be an EJami fan. I WILL, in fact, begin rooting for Sami to kill both Ej and Abigail ~ literally. And I will give a big F You to Days of Our Lives.

What does not kill them will make them stronger, so please don’t kill them!

I hope this escalates fire surcharge and come uppance…

Sammi needs to know things… her pedestal – her penchant for immature… is lacking keep the power… EJ reels

Where did that come from? EJ was just trying to get Sami to forgive and marry him and Abby was dealing with Chad and Cameron? Strange!!!!

I’d rather see EJ have sex with Kate – she’s, at least, less of an annoying, interfering hypocrite than Abigail is.
Salem treating her (and that horror of a mother of hers) like plaster saints is completely mystifying. She rags on everyone, thinks she’s better than everyone, butts in where she’s not wanted, tattles on everyone, and is for me the most annoying character in town. Even worse than her mother and that’s saying something.

Poor EJ! He’s no match for the Elvira Gulch of Salem! What she did to Austin will seem like child’s play after she’s done with him.

One good thing, though. This just might make Jennifer’s head explode and that would be a wonderful sight to see.

Isn’t DOOL good these days??

Kate and James have amazing chemistry. I have been intrigued by their scenes for weeks now. I am a little surprised at how quickly it came about and am very curious as to where this all goes…

are they at the Horton Cabin…

where Jenn and Daniel consummated their dalliance… that quickly deadened faster than paint on the wall…

At least EJ did not shoot Sami in the head before he headed to have sex with Abby. If EJ can forgave Sami for trying to kill him and not even taking a breath before she sexed up Rafe she can forgive this; or she can go take a few seats. I like the idea of Abby and EJ hooking up. It looks hot.

I don’t think they’re friends. And I hate that Days is going here with them. WHY?????!!!!!!

Disgusted, disappointed, bewildered and pissed off is how I feel about this. First off Abby is boring as wallpaper. In fact, I think I might actually find something more interesting about wallpaper than this girl. Secondly, Abby had chemistry with someone, and yes, it’s Jen’s ex, but it’s the truth. Nice trying to throw us off MF with that move or rather not so nice. Santa would be bringing you a lump of coal for that. 😛 Third, they aren’t FRIENDS. I speak to someone five times in the span of a year, and now they’re MY FRIEND? That’s up there with saying the people on social media who are actors are my pals because they might tweet me back or send me a message. That is one of the most laughable, asinine comments I’ve heard yet.

I said EJ is headed for a breakdown of sorts, but this person is disgusting. She sits around judging everyone, and what, we’re supposed to be all intrigued now that she’s going to do something with EJ? James is being sacrificed for this, and let me tell you you’re dead wrong if you don’t think he rules the roost over there in terms of fanbase, and EJAMI does as well.

As for Sami and EJ, their chemistry is what pushes people to watch this show. Demos have done better with EJAMI as a couple, and now TPTB are gonna piss that way for this? It just reminds me of Greenleo on AMC, and how Josh literally had to leave for a happy ending (if you want to call death one), but soaps are a dying breed. You can’t wait for YEARS to get a happy ending, so what we’ll get some half-assed one when they want to gloat you got yours.

I don’t know what I’m gonna do yet, but I know IF this goes down with him sleeping with her, I won’t watch live ANYMORE. I don’t like this. I think it’s boring and written by uneducated tools. Give me that job. EJ would’ve been maybe interesting with Theresa, and I think all three of those actors would have played beautifully off of one another, but this is just unacceptable. I know AS and JS will be amazing in this, but then we have KM who doesn’t have the chops. That makes me kind of ill.

No offense to KM, but she couldn’t even spark with a tri that was forced on the audience for how long? Casey is gone because of that idea, and Casey was a gorgeous, good ACTOR, so now you’re taking the MAIN male actor who has made millions of women swoon and throw him at someone who quite frankly deserves to be on the show very little because she’s boring. Kate can’t find a way to make her character interesting even with bad writing, and that is partially on her. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn’t. This isn’t a good role for her, and it’s sad because I adored the original Abby for years.

As much as I despise Gabi, at least the actress sparked with her male co-stars. Heck, she even had chemistry Will AND later when they were arguing Chad. I thought for sure they would have hate sex, but instead, he was relegated to play footsie with this almost virgin. EJ knows how much Chad loved this child, and now you’re going to perhaps destroy that? EJ is a lawyer! They think OUTSIDE the box.

We saw this coming a mile away, but we thought perhaps just once TPTB saw that this was a bad idea and were going to just maybe have this flirtation with Sami getting upset. THAT would have been fine, but EJ looks like he could be her dad and acts like her father. Is he going to boink Allie after you SORAS her later this year? I stopped watch Brad Bell’s version of B&B because of this very same reason. I don’t like drama for drama’s sake. I’m not stupid, and I don’t want to be treated as such as a viewer.

I loved the original Abby. She was great and now she is on Pretty Little Liars. I agree with your whole comment. Kate Mansi seems like a nice person but does not have the acting ability to pull this off and frankly I am appalled that Days would go there just to give her a story.

I don’t agree with that, I think she has the acting chops to pull it off, interviews have been done with the cast who have said that she is a very good actress and brings her A game every time she is on set, I am intrigued as to how this all pans out – I think she has the goods to pull this off!

I’ve never heard of those interviews. That is just my opinion that she can’t pull it off and your entitled to yours. However I am only now wanting ow Sami and Jennifer to find out regardless of how bad the acting will be. There will be fireworks for sure.

OMG… this is completley unexpected… and hot! So glad that EJ now has a partner who can make his chemistry volatile!

wow! through the roof undercurrents

belie how hot this could all be

for ALL concerned…

steamed out

Twists like this are why Days will never be my favorite, though I love the actors. I don’t like any storyline done just to shock or shake up things. Cheap and manipulative. This isn’t a choice either character would make.

This reminds me of the Will – Gabi hookup, which they didn’t even attempt to explain. Just a device to have the gay guy father a child with former girlfriend.

II know it’s a soap, but there has to be some emotional truth to the characters’ actions, no matter how over the top they may be.

If I was Abbs and graduated the golden circle…

and my agenda was take no prisoners… with no baggage…

then have at it Abbs

playa your self and render absolute certainty your being

his choice

I hate this. I’ve been watching Days for 36 years and if EJ and Abby get together I may just stop. EJ and Sami chemistry is the reason I continue to watch. Abby is too young and inexperienced. Ugh

Oh, I think you’ll eat it up!

Really Sami is torturing E.J. He deserves better.

But it is Sami who drove him to do this. No matter how much EJ sacrifices for her she always pushes him away and belittles him. He has apologized to her countless times but she will not trust him. Trust, the foundation of a relationship. But can you blame her? He has done such horrible things to Sami. And she to him. But besides that, I just want EJ with someone who makes him happy and treats him right. Sami has never done that and you can tell now that EJ is pissed and even blackmailing her to marry him. His fights with Sami are boring and not hot, and while the ratings are better than 2012, they are still not good and in last place among the soaps. People are bored of EJami but certainly see the spark of EJabby. Just look at SalemSpectator and Daytime Royalty, 2 of The biggest Days fa sites out there. Most people hate EJami and want him to sleep with Abigail. Even on Twitter, same reaction. That says it all.

Thank u!

if you know… unequivocally… that LOVE circles your being… permeates your being together…

then.. you have it all.

trust … is a trait that for Sammi doesn’t come easy… and I’ll give her that. EJ who by all accounts.. under the guise and tutelage… of Stefano… and yet a mindset he doesn’t struggle with? is he weakened by nefarious tease and dispirited.. and the woman be damned?

this all adds to the ensuing plug for the fall out

I am so disappointed in this . Abby is so immature for EJ. What has the writers done this time. So disgusted with this. Why can’t you write an actual love story of ejami . There chemistry together is awesome. Would love to see a huge wonderful wedding and time with there kids. Why can’t we have nice and not ugly for once. Hopefully is is just a kiss! And he stops it before it goes to far. So Sad the writers cannot see this.

Immature? What do you call Sami, then? She fought with an 8 year-old over a backpack!

Are you alright?

Wonderful twist, I have been so bored with Sami yelling at E.J. And playing the high and mighty queen. I love this trist with Abby. Chemistry is HOT HOT HOT. I will always love ejami but really I’m so sick of what she does to E.J. I want him to have real love and he will never have that with Sami. She is a selfish brat!

Can we say character assassination? EJ’s character would never do this. It’s poorly written and so contrived. It’s what I like to call lazy writing. They have zero chemistry and I sorry but Kate Mansi is not a good actress. She can’t hold a candle to James Scott or Alison Sweeney. Hopefully it’s an Abigail fantasy because it just makes no sense and frankly feel a little bit like EJ would be a Chester molester since she’s like basically a kid and he’s a grown ass man. People who think this is hot are basically former Lumi, safe or Ejole fans. Y’all just hate Ejami and will root for any crappy story line as long as it breaks Ejami up! Sore ass losers!

You are the loser for not respecting people’s different opinions. EJami are not hot. Everyday they tell at each other and have animal sex. It is BORING! Even EJami fans/former fans here are saying this!

If you don’t like it don’t eat it! I say whatever I want! Ejami has the largest fan base even Ken Corday said it. Besides even the General Audience thinks this sucks. Days is so scared of losing the Ejami fan base they tried putting out a damage control interview out yesterday at 2pm! They tape three months in advance and apparently thought we’d enjoy this sick twist but they were wrong and now they are crapping in their pants.

This is so Gross! Her character is boring and annoying!! Gross, Gross, Gross!!!

He just said he loves her so much he can’t see straight and now he’s Kissing Abby? I love EJ and how he strong and stern with everyone else but how Sammi gets straight to his heart. Can’t stand that the writers even have him kissing Abby. Hope it’s just a kiss to distract her from talking to Hope. 🙁

Days may have jumped the shark with this move. Too many things that draw me to Days are being sacrificed for what appears to be nothing more than cheap thrills and shock value, not to mention something that borders on the just.plain.creepy. And that makes me terribly sad. I hate to see the show cast aside the one aspect that made me value EJ so much – his loyalty to Samantha – for a ONS with what’s essentially a child. It’s total character assassination. Am I really supposed to believe that EJ would cheat on the woman he’s worked so hard for seven years to get? And that he’d do it with the girl his brother loves? The brother who took two bullets for him? And then am I really supposed to believe that he’d have sex with this girl/child? Should I call Social Services and report him? And am I really supposed to believe that EJ’s so unresourceful that the only way he can keep the girl child from telling Hope about Gabi’s reaction is to have sex with her? Really???

And then there’s the romance between EJ and Sami that’s being sacrificed too. Say what you will about these two, there’s something very compelling about a man who loves a woman for who she is and doesn’t try to change her. What woman doesn’t want that? Does Days understand we watch for romance also? And romance and passion are not defined as a grown man having sex with a child. Nor is it seeing a woman have her heart broken by the man she loves above all else.

It’s a huge gamble Days is taking here, and, with them taping four months out, it’s going to be hard to recover if this blows up in their faces. And there’s the good possibility it will. I’m sick about this turn. The promo left me feeling as if I’d been kicked in the guts. I hate seeing sensationalist story telling and cheap tricks substituted for good storytelling. Good luck, Days. You’re going to need it.

You are right. It is a huge gamble and I have a feeling it is not going to end well for them but who knows.

Abby is a grown woman. No need for social services. Yes she is 10 years younger than EJ which I sick but she is a senior in college, so at least 21.

This is probably the first time I agree with Dmitri. The fights between EJ and Sami are so boring and honestly I can’t take it anymore. I do not like EJ and Abby at all and find it disgusting but EJ drove Sami to this because he is still lying about knowing that Eric was drugged. He does stuff like is to her and he should expect that she is going to push him away. When she asked him if she should leave the mansion, he should have said yes. Then he can be free to be with Abby. They are going round in circles and it’s getting on my last nerve. This will still be considered cheating and honestly I hope Sani tosses EJ out and never forgives him for this. She deserves better than have him cheat on her with Abby and I am a major EJAMI fan.

I think a lot of us feel that way Maggie. After EJ got down on his knees and begged, gave up absolutely everything for Sami to get her home to him and the kids, after Samis beautiful soul baring, heartfelt love letter to EJ, Ejami should have got married. There was never a better time than that. They were so happy, so content and so in love. Why the writers chose to do what they have done since then is totally beyond me. To me there seems to be no logic to it at all. Marriage was the next natural step for this couple pairing. What an insult to fans this turn of events.
And what makes it even sadder…. couples that have been together for 2 minutes in comparison to Ejami are getting to walk down the altar before them. Badly done Days, badly done 🙁

I agree, Leah. I’m still trying to figure out why they threw away 18 months of rehabbing EJ’s character and creating a couple viewers could buy into only to throw it out on a cheap ratings stunt. I hope it backfires on them big time, and I hope the people responsible for these decisions are held accountable. You don’t take something that wasn’t broken and smash it to smithereens just for a cheap ratings ploy. Still shaking my head at the magnitude of ineptitude shown by the show runners. Not sure who would ever want to watch this pervy mess.

Just lost me as fan of EJ the character, and confirmed my dislike for the character of Abby, and Jennifer, since Jack died, … can’t see Sammy forgiving this … nor will I.

I whole heartedly agree with you. I dislike where this story line is going and depending the outcome this week may tune out permanently. It’s so out of character for Ej, it doesnt make sense that he would cheat on his beloved Samantha. I was looking forward to a wedding but not one filled with betrayal and secrets. I adore you AS and JS but I can’t watch this SL. And with Abigail of all people, don’t see it. I don’t care for her and no storyline she’s in, even with Ej will make me want to tune in.

I hate the pairing of EJ and Abigail! I’m NOT AN ABIGAIL FAN AT ALL, let alone having DOOL pair her with EJ our favorite male character. I’ve been watching since I was 5 years old, that’s 35 years and I vow to never watch again as does everyone I know who watches if they become a love match.
Besides disliking Abigail, Sami and EJ blow any couple away.

I’m sorry but I think that (as a soap couple) EJ and Sami have clearly run their soap course. And, Sami herself has gone from a bad girl-type to a self-righteous, meddling, and hypocritical BUSYBODY. And, more and more, Sami treats poor EJ like total dirt. Lame. Character-wise, give me Abigail over Sami any day. And, besides, EJ and Abigail (chemistry-wise) LIGHT UP THE SCREEN!!!!! Let Sami go annoy someone else.

Amen!

I just saw this for the first time ten mins ago onNBC. I gasped and scared my dog. Lol!!! While I’m hoping it’s just a tease. I can’t help but love them together. They are beautiful people and they look awesome!!!

Days of our Lives Star, Greg Vaughan, Gives Health Update and Thanks Everyone for Their Support

Greg Vaughan (Eric, Days of our Lives, ex-Lucky, GH, and ex-Diego, Y&R) provided an update on his health on Sunday, March 17th. Vaughan had previously shared that he had become ill during a trip with his sons to Colorado, and had developed altitude sickness when he was having trouble breathing accompanied by terrible headaches and landed in the urgent care.

Now on St. Patrick’s Day, Greg took to his Instagram and shared how he is feeling now, and to thank everyone for their love and support.  As it turned out, Vaughan was diagnosed with high altitude pulmonary edema, commonly known as HAPE. However, he is on the mend slowly and surely.

In his new video post, the DAYS favorite started by expressing, “I just felt such an appreciation and gratitude for everything. . reaching out. Your prayers have been felt. It’s been a struggle, but I’m over the top. And, taking this moment just to say I didn’t realize the things that I was going through. My (original) post was simply just to educate, put some information out there and some things that I was feeling, just share that information and the struggle that I was going through, which I didn’t quite understand. And it wasn’t because I’m stubborn or just because I’m a father, a man, and didn’t want to go to a doctor. It is just something I thought was so minor that I could overcome it, just by taking care of myself.”

The Daytime Emmy winner then revealed his actual diagnosis, “So, basically my situation was high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). With some good friends, doctors that had reached out to me, it kind of gave me some understanding on the aftermath, which was very, very beneficial.”

“But I’ve been resting, taking care of myself even though I live in a hamster wheel,” said the dad of three teenaged boys. “I gotta get up and, you know, do my normal domesticated stuff, eventually. I’m tired of laying down in this bed, but, I am feeling much better.”

Talking on his confusion of trying to understand what could have been ailing him, Vaughan expressed, “I couldn’t quite figure it out, even though I was emphasizing and professing to my children going on our spring break getaway about hydration. I professed it. But, even though I was acting on it, it had a greater effect on me, and for which I did not even think, because my head was such in pain, and I was in a very bad state of mind – not being able to be out there with my kids on the mountain, enjoying their time, as well. I thought I was doing the right thing. Unfortunately, my lungs were full of fluids and my head was in severe pain and even migraine pills didn’t even help. So, I just want anybody that goes into the Colorado Mountains to know, it is no joke. It is this very serious thing which I guess is why they call it the Mile High City.”

Greg had a mountain of ‘thank you’s’ to give for the outreach he received from his original post, “For everybody internationally, wherever you are, I love you and I appreciate you and just the time and the thoughts that you’ve shared with me,” said Vaughan. “I didn’t realize that it would make such an impression on so many people around the world. I feel tremendously loved and I can’t say it enough. I’m good. And I appreciate you.”

The actor concluded his video with, “To all the family and friends that have reached out to me, man, it means the world. So take care of yourself, enjoy your spring break with your families. It’s Saint Patty’s Day, obviously. I wish I could be out there.” Vaughan added, “I feel loved and touched and I can’t emphasize that enough. I’ll take better care of myself, promise you will do the same.” Before he signed off, Greg shared, “Just know, that I’m alive and well and breathing, and I’m sore. So, be well, take care. I mean it. Thank you, tremendously.”

Glad to know that Greg has been on the mend, and shared his appreciation for everyone that reached out to him during this trying time? Comment below.

Days of our Lives Star Greg Vaughan Shares Sudden Health Scare: “I Truly Feel Like I Work & Live in a Soap Opera!”

What started out as an adventure with his sons, quickly turned into a nightmare for Days of our Lives Daytime Emmy winner, Greg Vaughan (Eric Brady).

In a series of Instagram posts, Vaughan shared the sudden health crisis he found himself in.  The images show Greg with an oxygen tank to help him breathe.

The actor began to fill people, sharing, “I’ve said more than a few times, I truly feel like I work & live in a Soap Opera! 🤪 this trip was nothing short of another great Vaughan adventure!”

He went on to say that on a father and son Colorado spring break trip, he began to feel shortness of breath, feeling tired and with a headache and after two days of hoping he would feel better, Vaughan finally went to an Urgent Care to get checked out.

Photo: GVaughanIG

“I finally surrendered & went to urgent care and to my shock I learned that I was experiencing severe altitude sickness.” Vaughan admitted. “My Blood Oxygen was at 54% & my lungs were full of fluids! Blood oxygen, also known as oxygen saturation, represents the percentage of hemoglobin in your red blood cells that is carrying oxygen. Most people have an oxygen level of 95-100%….”

Providing more detail to his health scare, Greg shared, “Well, 4hrs later, a couple of bags of IV & oxygen tank strapped to my face, I was told that I needed to immediately get off the mountain! However I couldn’t, we still had another day to go & wanting the boys to enjoy their last day on the hill tops! I opted to go home with an oxygen tank, a good laugh for everyone, and I know will follow, but my boys looked after their old man & fortunately they had friends on this trip!”

Photo: JPI

The experience of altitude sickness in the Colorado Rockies gave Vaughan a bit of a new perspective, “In all seriousness, no matter your age, and all the times I’ve ⛷️ & 🏂 in my lifetime, Colorado Rockies is no joke! As they say, ‘ take a breathe and smell the roses!’ That is truly something we need to remember & appreciate! #recover”

Share your well-wishes to Greg as he continues to be on the mend via the comment section below.
