Congrats DAYS!
Polar vortex to some extent. I bet many tuned in to watch Sami catch Abby with EJ. The fallout is the only interesting aspect of this story.
Everything has me glued to DAYS. Ever-y-thing. For starters, Blake Berris is effing phenomenal. First and foremost. His scenes from yesterday and today were so calm, cool and calculated. His character is such a snake, but he’s playing those upper-hand, overly confident overtones to absolute perfection. I love everything he does and makes every scene worth watching. When I saw the promo they showed at Day of Days with Nick attacking Gabi, I thought I’d hate the direction. They sure showed me. EJ and Abby are hot. I’m an EJami fan, but I have eyes. For whatever they are, and… Read more »
Wonder if itll go higher when John finally returns and later Kristen?
John is a bore! Haven’t missed him at all.
The show is continuing to showcase a new generation of actors. I think it is great to keep the Hortons and Bradys at the forefront, but I would love to see another core family introduced. I am hoping to see Eve Donavan bring a few kids with her to replace the hole left in the show since Chad, Gabi and the other younger generation have left. JJ, Abby and Theresa need friends their own age. I can’t wait to see Hope back in the middle of the action. I was thinking today how much I would love to see Belle… Read more »
Ray I agree with you, they should bring Alexa Havens as Belle Black, she would be great. Alexa is a terrific actress.
I think the ratings are going up because of EJabby! There is so much promotion for them! They have amazing chemistry together! And their shower scenes were superb! Fans are buzzing about them on twitter. People obviously like them a lot!
EJ AND ABBY!!!!!!! They are the only reason I started watching.
It is argued that sex sells. Anybody would have been in the scene and it would have been a hit. EJ is hot, not much to say about Abby and her acting skills. Firstly, you are asking people whats keeping them glued to Days and you have two naked people making love? The week was promoted as Sami arriving early to find Ej and Abby. This made some people who would not watch, see this bullshit, It was misleading. There was the Eric, Nicole and Daniel saga which was fun to watch. You seem to be promoting just one couple.… Read more »
I have to disagree here. I am glued to Day’s if Our Lives soley for Ejabby ! Sami and EJ never did it for me, even their supposed grief sex scene. Kate Mansi is doing a fantastic job, and her chemistry with James Scott is off the charts. I would always fast forward thru EJAMI scenes. when ejabby isn’t on all the scenes drag withe the exception of Nick’s storyline . Funny from the looks of things Nick may actually replace Stefano as Salem’s resident villain. Only when Stefano is gone for good of course.
Go EJabby! I love that EJabby shower sex was the promo and main story and brought in the best demos in almost 3 years. It’s not surprising since they are by far the hottest, sexiest and most talked about soap couple in a long time!
EJ & Abigail
Hands down the hottest pair ever!
Days has the best stories the best actors and it moves at a nice pace. I just love it every day. The other shows are good too but not as good as Days
Two words “Lorraine Broderick,” You have to credit the great writing and great cast. DAYS is my favorite soap on the air right now…I love GH, but DAYS remains grounded and built with deep character driven storylines. Seriously, no show does family as good as DSYS anymore either…not in daytime, and in Primetime the only show that beats DAYS in family focus is Parenthood! In my opinion DAYS outshines all soaps currently.
The ratings SHOULD be:
1. DAYS
2. GH
3. B&B
4. Y&R
You’re so right!!!
bravo days of our lives, The show is on fire right now. Terrific acting, and wonderful storylines. I still want bo brady back, I hope that peter reckell comes back, as Bo brady. Looking forward to kassie depaiva as eve donovan, this summer. She is a pretty lady, and that woman can act. Also cannot wait until eileen davidson comes back as kristen dimera this summer. this will be a storyline arc. I am so happy, that days of our lives, got renewed until 2016.
Ej and Abby make the show worth watching!
I like EJabby too, but DAYS is kicking ass in so many ways!!! I love everything about DAYS!!!
EJ and Abigail
Long time Day’s viewer. So excited to have Drake back in Salem. All Soap fans need to tune into their favorite stories to keep them strong and on the Air.
Days is the best. I’m a newish viewer, really just watching for the past year, and I’m VERY VERY happy I tuned in. OLTL and AMC were my longtime favorites – AMC for me since Day 1, and I missed them badly when ABC killed them. I followed them online and liked the reboots, but I’d also picked up DOOL as well. I tried Y&R and that show is just awful, terrible, depressing to watch. I still try with GH but……I can barely watch it. It’s only “better” than Y&R because I have some history with the show. But Days!… Read more »
It seems the Nielsen ratings are finally taking into count all the other ways people watch TV these day, not not just by TV..
I have not watched my soaps on TV ever since they became available on the internet, a long time ago..
Now, Nielsen ratings is counting me ..
The Ej and Abby scenes have made me want to come back for more not just the sex – which wasn’t bad either 🙂 , but for the ying and yang chemistry and dialogue. I want to see their relationship play out for awhile even if it does not last forever. Also, like Nicole and Eric, but I hope that they spice up their relationship and interaction more. The Kate and Nick scenes were very good also. Hope is always good and look forward to her having a storyline.
