Please tell me it is John…that story already bores me!

It’s absolutely stupid. I really wish the writers would not play around with history. It works much better having EJ as a DiMera. Plus, the whole history is that Stefano dressed up as Elvis and impregnated Susan, EJ’s mothers. So what gives now? I hope it’s a mistake and the new writers will correct this idiocy.

totally predictable!!! that’s also Stefano has been thwarting all that EJ has been doing and going after.

Not a long term DOOL watcher, but I would love it, if E.J.’s not a Dimera spawn. I want him to rise above Stefano’s influence and teachings. 🙂

Plus I want Nicole to take him back. 🙂

Stupid plot twist! Sick of these paternity changes all the time.

I knew it! I was hoping it was not true. I was hoping Alice would had something bigger. What a dissappointment!

I think that it will turn out that Ian is E.J.’s bio dad!

I think the writers need to go back and watch the shows that revolved around Susan and Kristen and John and the baby. That was one of the best storylines and messing with it is an insult to viewers IMO. If this is the best they had, I’m glad that pair of writers is gone. Really not impressed with what they dished out.

Seriously??? Alice kept this secret? How stupid. And it’s so stupid that EJ is not Stefano’s son. EJ is more interesting as the villian you love to hate. EJ and Stefano make a good father/son team.

Now I’m glad the writers were let go! Maybe the current team will

Ratings of soaps go down when hack writers screw with a show’s history. They think viewers will accept whatever crap they come up with. We have spent years with these characters and their stories, we don’t want the past re-written every time the names on the writers room door changes. Give us new exciting plotting and maybe the ratings will go up.

I thought that the ecret would be that EJ was Alice’s son! Well, while I like him as a DiMera, not he will change and EJole will be back!

Isn’t it obvious to anyone who EJ’s parents are???? or did I miss a post..The minute Stefano cried when he read his letter from Alice Horton, bells sure went off in my head. Who else had another letter? Come on you guys I can’t be the only one who thinks it will be Princess Gina and John. Who else? I may be off, but I completely think this is the answer and besides making the most sense for future issues and more bonding to thicken the plot. It makes absolute sense to me. I almost feel like I am letting… Read more »

Good. Maybe now we can get Stefano out of Salem. I’m sorry for Kate, though. EJ ehh who cares.

I liked many of the scenes between EJ and Stefano – the father/son power struggle, love, anger, etc. Rumor has it that JM is retiring which may be part of the reason for this story line. If they are ever to bring Sami and EJ together, I can understand why they would have to do this. The biggest obstacle for Sami about EJ is that Stefano is his father, and that he is a DiMera. This would change all of that. Of course, with the continuous “who is your Daddy story lines’. One Day Stefano is not EJ’s daddy then… Read more »

That is so correct! It must be Gina’s baby!!!! Months ago there was a scene with stefano and hope and there was a baby picture on his shelf — he said something to her about whether she “really wanted to know the truth.” Then, they focused the camera back on the baby picture — Hope has to be EJ’s mom. I think there was a baby switch between the EJ we know from Susan’s and Stefano’s “EJ” that is probably alive in Africa (where Doug and Julie are at). This all makes sense. The coin in the egg has something… Read more »

My guess is Princess Gina and John are the parents. This would explain why Alice had the picture. I believe the kids were switched, maybe even Stefano’s kid died. If everyone remembers, it has been mentioned a few times that John and Hope will need to get divorced but in the beginning they thought about living their lives they way it was and just stay married, but Carrie convinced them that if they didn’t this would come back to haunt them. This will now stop them from getting an annulment because this means they consummated their marriage. John and Hope… Read more »

Ok….don’t forget that Victor is a part of this too. Remember when the whole Daniel/Maggie thing came out the picture of the baby was also in Victors home too. We will have to watch this all unfold. Victor helped Daniel’s birth mother get pregnant….What if there were twins? I don’t know if Daniel and EJ could pass age wise though. Is Maggie EJ’s mom too? But he does look like John. And they are pretty good at matching up families on Days. What ever happens here Victor is definately involved. Maybe Susan was a suroget also. All a master plan… Read more »

I have only been watching Days for five years but was under the impression that EJ was raised as a Wells and didnt know he was a Dimera until he got older. Is this correct ? I think he is the son of Hope and John (Gina and the Pawn). I find it doubtful that Alice would have ever wanted Hope to know this and therefore, kept it a secret–thinking that Stefano would never see EJ’s alleged ‘real’ birth certificate. Stefano would feel absolute betrayal and horror at the thought of John being EJ’s biological father. If its true that… Read more »

lexie has been on the show for like 20 years and chad,melanie and daniel has been on the show for a few years now

don’t messwith Ej, he and Stephano are made for each other

Stephano is Ej’s son

I hate the fact the stephano is not EJ’s father… I love them together..

I can barely remember that Susan was pregnant years ago and I think that baby was either switched or Stepano sent the real baby to live somewhere else. EJ is proably John and Gina’s boy. I can really see that story line happening because Alice Horton would want to cover up that fact. I am kind of sad to see some of the characters leaving soon though and will wonder what would have happened to those characters such as Austin and Carrie.

I think he is either a Kiriokis or a Horton. I don’t think EJ is John’s because they do try to shy away from incest and with Sami and EJ’s kids the writers wouldn’t do that unless they try Anne explain how they wouldn’t be related.

Speaking as a DOOL fan since Marlena was married to Don (before Roman), I HATE this new storyline. If it turns out Hope and John are EJ’s parents, I will stop watching, as it is not possible. Bo was Hope’s first lover, not John (who was with Marlena then, thinking he was Roman), so how in the world did Hope produce a baby that is now in his thirties? Was she 11 when she gave birth? I hate when soap re-write history to suit their own purposes and forget all us long-term fans have memories. Currently I am only watching… Read more »

I’ve watched DOOL with my grandma when I was much younger and remember the whole Susuan story and all that. Hope can’t be EJ’s mom…she had Shawn D first with Bo…so Shawn D would have to be older than EJ and there’s no way. She became Princess Gina after she had Shawn D…am I wrong?

What will Sami do when she finds out that EJ doesn’t belong to Stefano? This could free them up to finally be together and once again she will hurt Lucas…

I have been a DOOL fan for the last 19 years. I LOVE the dynamics of EJ and Stephano as a father/son villain duo. HOW COULD THE WRITERS MAKE EJ SOMEONE ELSE’S SON??? Who is going to take over the DiMera family? Stephano can’t be on the show forever, EJ would have is the ONLY person that could take over the ultimate villain in the DOOL storylines. You love to hate him, he’s great! Now they are going to make him John’s son? Ian’s son? A Horton? YUCK, BORING, HATE THE STORYLINE. What a huge disappointment . . . THE… Read more »

EJ’s birth name was originally John Black, Jr. It was later changed to EJ Dimera when paternity deterimed John was not his father, which means somebody changed the results of the paternity…

Hi, I’ve been reading these comments with great interest! For the person who questioned the possibilty of Gina/Hope being EJ’s father, obviously, that would not be possible, considering EJ’s apparent age today. But when he WAS born, it was 1997!! The DOOL pple just fast-aged him. (They do that occasionall, like when 4 year olds go away for a few months, and come back as teenagers! ) Also, when we found out that John & Stefano were half-brothers, wasn’t there an episode which flashed back to show Santo DeMira as looking just like EJ? And didn’t Santo want Sami &… Read more »

Duh… Gina/Hope would, of course have been a mother… NOT a father, as I mistakenly typed! Sorry about that!

This is proof that they are SO running out of stories for this show!!!!!

I find it interesting Stefano – while suddenly being so cold to EJ – insists nobody else be told the truth that EJ isn’t his son. Why? Not just for Lexie, I think. We know Lexie really is dying (the actress wants to leave the show) and we hear the actor playing Stefano wants to retire. I think Lexie finds out Stefano “killed” her, and she goes out with a bang. She shoots Stefano, and nobody finds out EJ is not DiMera. That way, the writers can get rid of this storyline, but leave a mystery for later if they… Read more »

I’ve been watching Days since I could hear it in my Mom’s Womb and I remember most the shows history. From John coming to Salem supposedly as Roman. Marlena being the devil,No and Isabella being Kirakis. All the way to the new stories Will is Gay, Rafe Sank at the safehouse on & on & on So anyway I don’t know about writers all I know is DAYS and all of you are right. princess Gina can’t be Elvis mom although age is never a factor in Soaps. I think Askin is the only character who truly plays her age.… Read more »

I meant Bo and Isabella being Kirakis
I ment Sami plays her own age

I hate the story as it is now. Stefano will rise. ( I hope)’ EJ looks like Santo, his grandfather. Leave him a DiMera. Why do you have someone framing him. I hope it is Stefano to prove his love. I don’t want EJ in jail. That stinks. Get rid of Will already. I can’t stand his character with EJ. Wil is so bad..he should stay with his little gay friends not with EJ. Come on… I love the DiMeras they have the power and class.. I shut it off today when that idiot planted the gloves. How stupid. Get… Read more »
