I’m adding a post here since I can’t create a new comment, for some reason. Although I recognize the need to create categories for voting, right now so many of these characters could actually be listed in their opposite category. In no way, can Rafe, Bo, Roman and Brady be classified exclusively as Heroes, given their motivations and actions in the story line currently. At the same time, to classify EJ as a baddie exclusively overlooks all the character’s positive motivations and actions. Perhaps having voters order these characters on a continuum of good / bad would generate the information… Read more »

Everyone has a right to their own opinions so it isn’t necessary to put others down because they have a different opinion. Rafe/Galen already has more than 10 votes proving that he has more than 10 fans. I know a lot of people who do care about Rafe, as well as EJ, Bo, Brady and all the other actors on the show. I believe that Days of Our Lives knows that ALL of their actors have fans and I know they love that. We don’t all have to like/love the same characters or actors. It is OK.

Why because Rafe has the upper hand over EJ. Ej is only good at fighting when it’s a woman or teenager! He is a pathetic piece of work! At least the ratings are going back up when SAFE is on the screen, and not down like this summer when it was Ej and Sami! Makes a person go Hmmm………….

Rachel. Your opinion doesnt mean a thing. Galen is gaining fans everyday. Just because EJ fans relentlessly tell their members to vote in every poll out there and spamming is encouraged doesn’t mean he’s the winner.

Then why in 08 before GG was hired were they talking of canceling the show? In 09 when Rafe and Sami were together the ratings came up every week or stayed the same. Then this summer when the show focused on Ej and Sami the ratings dropped to last place a lot of the time. And how they are gaining a little every week! I think it’s because viewers want romance and SAFE can delivery it, they act like billions of couples down to earth viewers can relate to them. Maybe even see themselves in SAFE. I have seen Ej… Read more »

but he’s not on the show..?

Thank you for doing this. I wish I go to DOD but it’s nice knowing our voices will be heard by having you tell the actors/actresses directly. I only wish there was another category for the females…favorite heroine/villian. Thanks again…and have a blast at DOD! Can’t wait to see your coverage.

PS
Please get some tidbits on the EJAMI romance for us! 😉

Thanks for the polls, Michael. I love Galen Gering and Peter Reckell so the hero one was a tad bit hard…..lol…..but in the end Galen’s Rafe is my favorite hero, but Bo is my favorite all time hero of Days. Voted for Galen for Hottie and Hero.

Galen Gering is definitely the best Hottie on Days! He is by far the most handsome and sexiest man on the show……but let’s give credit where credit is due…James Scott is by far the best Baddie ever….he gets my vote for the most sadistic and cruelest bad guy on Days.

Love James he Is why a huge number watching days of our lives !dool never received so many buzz as she got when ej Come!

James Scott is the best at everything. You should have put him in the hero category too.

Thanks for the poll Michael!
It was hard to pic between James (EJ) and Shawn (Dan) for favorite hottie, but in the end I chose James because the man has the whole package IMO.

Favorite baddie was a toss up between Victor and Stefano, so I did just that and tossed a coin with Stefano being the winner lol.

Bo (Peter) is the best hero on Days and no one else comes close.

Michael
Thanks for doing these polls. I’m assuming you’re going to do some more for the beautiful women of DOOL!!!! Will be voting in those as soon as they are up!!!!
Keep up the great stuffs Michael!!!!!

Hottest Guy is without a doubt for me James Scott as EJ Dimera
Baddie is Joe Mascolo as Stefano/tho Lauren Koslow (Kate)gives him a run for his money
Hero is without a doubt,for this longtime viewer as Bo Brady,played by the wonderful Peter Reckell

james scott amazing

I heart Michael Fairman

This is not to bash but I honestly don’t get why they consider Rafe a hero. He is not like any hero I’ve ever seen in 25 years of watching DOOL. He certainly is no Bo, Shane, John not even close and DOOL has never had a hero I didn’t like until now (if Rafe is a hero). I really wish they would stop putting him in that category as I think it’s an insult to the DOOL hero’s of the past. And if saving a life constitutes a hero than that would make EJ one to LOL!

Bryan Dattilo/Lucas Horton is the BEST on or off Days Of Our Lives,bring him back

Rafe is the hottest for sure. I think Nicole is the best baddie and I had a hard time choosing between Rafe and Bo for the best hero.

Galen Gering is the hottest hero ever on Days. JMO.

No one can come close to Stephano’s fury.

EJ is the man! Love, love, love him. Such a richly drawn character, but as someone else mentioned, we need our EJami or at the very least, stop the silly fighting between the two. It’s gotten old. I hate they killed Ari cuz I could’ve seen her w/ EJ and that would’ve been great conflict btwn the four. I want to see EJ content for a while w/ his children, whether he’s w/ Sami or not. Back to the poll: I must admit I love almost all of the men on Days. This show has the best group of hotties… Read more »

Would have voted for James Scott in all three categories if he was listed. To me he is a hero also. He has done some bad things but he has a heart and a conscience. He is not Stefano. James Scott has it all, the looks and the acting skills. He outmatches anyone he acts with. Love him or hate him, he is one fine actor.

Favorite Days Hottie is JAMES SCOTT (EJ DiMera) Favorite Days Baddie is ALISON SWEENEY (Samantha Brady) Favorite Days Hero is JAMES SCOTT (EJ DiMera) EJ’s DEFINITELY SUPER HOTT, SUPER FINE, SUPER SEXY, and SUPER GORGEOUS!!! WOW!!! Sami has always been super bad! Love the villainess vixen queen! Her & EJ are amazing and awesome together! So much fun! They are so made for each other! She’s even badder than EJ. EJ doesn’t even come close to Sami and what she has done both past and present and what she’s capable of. Sami has always been a villainess! She’s right up… Read more »

EJ DiMera is a hottie, a baddie and definitely a hero in many ways.

I put my vote in for Jay K Johnson as the best hottie on Days. Philip is charming, complex, passionate, and drop dead gorgeous.

James Scott

Hottie, baddie, and hero.

James scott is everything ( THE BEST ACTOR ON DAYS)

James for Hottie and Hero, Joe for villain

too bad not a category for worst actor,

James Scott as Ej DiMera is the ultimate hottie, baddie and hero all in one!! Nothing he ever does is predictable or ordinary, he keeps on amazing me with all his diversity and complexity. He is tall dark and handsome, passionate and has amazing strength to go after what his heart desires, resorting to some cunning devious schemes. His unconditional love for his precious Samantha and his beautiful little rugrats redeems his darkness and makes him their hero. Constantly fighting to protect them, keep them safe and always making sure they have his love. I hope soon Sami will realize… Read more »

Hey Kiren, just because FL has new members everyday doesn’t mean they are EJAMIS. Did it ever accure to you that many are Safes/Lumis just spying? HAHAHA

EJ is my only reason for watching Days and it would be even better if he and Samantha could be one hot mess together and 4 ever!!!!!

How can Rafe even be a hero…to who has he been a hero to? protecting Sami from the BIG BAD DIMERAS? Right!!!!!! Like even now Ej wouldn’t hurt Sami. So what else has he done? I know he messed up in the WP dibacle. Zero…not a hero. Samis hero.
Ej on the other hand…in the past has saved Samis life many times…even jumped in front of a snipers bullet while she was on her way to WP. Don’t hear anyone give him credit for the many times he HAS done something worthy.

Sorry EJ isnt all that. Rafe is way hotter. Even in person Galen is sexier, nicer and is more fan friendly. Galen rocks his scenes too.

James Scott is hot hot hot & very talented actor . His work is amazing . I live in sweden and we are 4 years behind.

James Scott as EJ is my hottie, baddie, hero all rolled into one! He still loves Samantha even tho she shot him (he has figured it out) and adores his children. When they lived in DiMansion, they were a happy little family. EJ should have told her about the kidnapping at that time. Would she have retaliated as she did that fateful night? We don’t know. Will she ever forgive EJ? We don’t know but would hope so if we are EJami fans. All I know is, I admire James Scott for his powerful portrayal of the baddie with a… Read more »

IT’S RAFE AND SAMI 2ND ANNIVERSARY….2 years ago today Rafe and Sami met for the first time in the SAFE house, and I knew then that theirs would be a beautiful love story! And they haven’t disappointed me! They have romance, love, angst, trust, commitment to each other, and sentimental memories of their time together. They are the next SUPERCOUPLE on days!

I was so disapointed in GG’s acting. He had to put his head down and cover his face with his hands, because he could not show the right emotions when Ari died. I have noticed that before, he would smirk/smile when a different emotion was needed. But re-watch Fri. GG had to hide his face from the camara.
Ejami, they can really act, and they are great together.
I am waiting for EJ to save Sami from Stefano, sure hope it goes that way.

Poor Mark Hapka only has 13 votes 🙁

Well James Scott as Ej DiMera is the very reason why I started to rewatch Days!! I watched his first unforgettable meeting with Sami Brady and I was totally hooked! I have followed their lovestory from the very first day and I have never regretted it. Ej DiMera for me is so complex and compelling to watch throughout the years. Just like Sami, he strives to be good but he can’t help fighting for what he wants and will do anything to get it. His love for his children bring out his gentle side and his revellation of falling helplessly… Read more »

James Scott , hot hot hot & I watch days cos of him

I dearly love Shawn Christian, he is so good looking, a wonderful actor and very nice man. he is leading in the votes for hottie but I find it very strange there is not one comment left praising him, Are their trolls being very busy – Michael could this poll be spamed to undermine other fan bases votes. just curious. Thi is not to diminish Sean’s validity as a hottie but does seem a bit odd.

I happen to agree with the person who said that Sami cannot be seen as a “good” character any longer. She has done too much. Unless we find out some “twist” in this current story and she did not really shoot EJ or there’s something we don’t know, she’s turned into a morally repulsive creature.
Kate has always been right about Sami.

I like to see EJ everyday he is such interesting and believable character. No matter what character playing he is doing it very well James Scott very talented.

Although I adore Jay and James, Shawn is the definition of “hottie” to me. He’s not only nice to look at, but he is extremely sensual and passionate in his portrayal as Daniel. His raspy voice and perfect smile complete the package. I really don’t think there’s anyone hotter, especially in his scenes with Nadia.

thank you for your courtesy and doing these polls. Shawn is a handsome man, talented and so very nice. He would make a good choice.

Love me some hot delicious Shawn Christian!

Even if Shawn had been the one to shave his head, he would still be the HOTTEST on this show !!

Things that make you go hummmm.. Shawn Christian is okay looking, but no way is he the hottest man on this show, James Scott gets that honor. I do have to add that Michael Fairman is quite the hottie himself.

i voted for eric M for best hottie but i also find james scott yummy:)
i voted for ej for best baddie(he makes bad sound good)
and bo for best hero

Favorite hottie and baddie is James Scott. James is hot but he can act too which makes him the total package. I don’t think I’d be such a big fan if it were just all about looks. He was born to play EJ and excels at playing the bad boy roll. James is a magnificent storyteller. You become captivated and can’t help but root for EJ. He owns the roll of EJ. He’s made EJ who he is and it shines through in each performance. It is because of James and his portrayal of EJ that I feel EJ is… Read more »

Dool Men are all Hawt…. Shawn,James,Peter, Eric, Galen,Jay,Mark and others guys on there as well, heck all the women are beautiful too. This is one pretty soap but they are all talented as well congrats on to all the winners.

Totally agree with you– I think -well he did seem creepy weird but once he got to that hospital that I will not name after he was hit by a car- he no longer had that creepy look and his hair was different, too. So is this the new writers making a change or what??

I totally agree! This kid knocked it out of the park! They should have left Joeclyn and all the other kids alone let them grow up like Robin did! There is no need to soras and fill up the screen with teen drama! There is plenty of time for that let’s focus on the people we have! What a shame!

Ahhha haaa! you got me, Jimh 🙂

Did they age Jocelyn…i missed some eps. but Emma is still little Emma when she visits Anna…oh, well a lot of GH rarely makes any sense these days…lol

@jimh.
Yes, Jimmy, Jocelyn/Josslyn is now a teen. I just wonder why ‘they’ have decided to age Jake.
I’d like to think a fresh storyline with some of these youngsters would be welcomed.

A teen story is ok if done right with good actors but they didnt do well with TJ and Molly…

I agree, Jimmy. Haley Pulos has a bright career ahead of her….so versatile. In my opinion, her counterpart, Tequan Richmond, is a bleak actor for me. No charisma.
I could say the same for the avalanche of young newbies at Days.

They could write decent stuff for the children….i see them do it on Britains Coronation Street…and they never soras them…they are allowed to grow up realistically and act like real children…Simon has been acting out…his mother is dead and his father moved away…he lives with his stepmother whom he has physically abused when angered…Simon is 12…he still a troubled kid and his family is trying to help him…he currently left to visit his father…when he returned he is still a 12 year old…i love the realism of this show but it too can have its unbelievable soapish moment…like the dead… Read more »

Yes, Jimmy. Ideally, children should be able to grow up on screen, as many have.
As I said, there must be something of utter importance going down …..something involving Jake, which a child James Nigbor’s age cannot handle or perceive.
It’s hard to shake the feeling that Helena is, indeed, involved somehow.

I hope there is a method to this madness, CeeCee, and it’s spelled H-E-L-E-N-A!! James really captured the essence of this little trainwreck of a Cassadine-reared kiddie…..he looked so eerie, and yet, charmingly cherubic, at the same time. (Like a child star from a ’50’s sitcom or Disney movie……..) Plus, he was super with RoHo…after all this time, Franco had finally found himself a like-minded playmate, and now he’s gone! Bah…..

I believe the actor who plays Spenser is off doing another project at the moment.

Spencer is on a Disney show called Stuck in the Middle. He knew better than to wait around for scripts from the new regime at GH.

I’m one of the few people who really does not enjoy the little kids on the show. For one, I think they are portrayed as either sickly sweet and perfect (Emma) or obnoxiously advanced (Spencer). Jake was the exception. He seemed like a real kid. A kid with problems, grant you, but still a kid. Cameron is portrayed as a real kid too. Emma and Spencer are portrayed as mini-adults. I never enjoyed watching them very much. It’s nothing against the actors — they are good actors who are clearly giving the writers and directors what they want from their… Read more »

he was a great actor for a young boy and made great creepy faces . he was a cute little guy and I still will miss him

Anne, over at Y&R, Steve Burton is FINALLY starting to shine and Kelly Sullivan who was Connie/Kate on GH is doing a fine job to. Dont forget Jason Thompson who replaced Billy Miller’s character on Y&R. I have not heard ONE complaint over the recast. Y&R is pretty good right now and you will probably enjoy the change from the mob!
