For posters that have read my posts in the past, you might know that Nicole was my favorite character of all time. 

I just am no longer interested in this show, even WITH Nicole here and that to me personally sends up a red flag.  I don't know how to explain it, I'm just tired of it all.  All I ever do now is post to complain.  For some reason, and I can't even really tell you why, I just no longer care about this show. 

The stories are awful: i.e-the recycling of Chelsea and the doctor, another possible baby snatching, and the dialogue DOES SEEM to be repeated time after time again.

Character quality: i.e-Chloe is now miniKate/miniNicole, Chelsea has regressed, Sami is stupid, Chelsea and Max=fastforward, EJ is a criminal but we're suppose to forget that, Bo and Kayla have no common sense, and this new boring doctor comes along and all we see is him

Promotions, promotions, promotions: NASCAR, Smokey Robinson, Biggest Loser.  Yeah, I know they all exist, FOCUS ON STORIES, not promotion.

No regard to history: Was there an explanation as to how John went from Colleen, to Daphne, then to the Alemains?  EJ's past is forgotten.

The continued praise from SOD: It's obvious the writers and editors for this publication must be in the pocketbooks of Corday.

I could complain and complain as I have for years now but it's obvious Corday isn't listening.  All I put up is negative postings now.  I'm just feeling I'm drifting further from caring.  And if this show is cancelled, and Corday is foolish enough to shop it around then I'll have severed my ties.  Truth be told, I may sever my ties while it's still on NBC.

It's bad folks-my favorite character Nicole doesn't seem to help much now.

John and Marlena and Steve keep it going for me, mostly. I love John and Steve so I'll always watch the show. Victor is good too. I enjoy seeing the older actors. The storylines are just OK for me. I'm not excited by them, but I'm not all that bored either. John is so interesting right now, I can't pull my eyes away.

I have just become bored with it all. The actors don't even make me feel any emotion for their character. I too have missed a couple of days and I do not feel deprived.

I know what you mean.  I have missed the show the past two days and I haven't even cared.  I'm sure it was: "Dr. Jonas you have to save Chelsea. You have to help her!"; "Ava, let everybody else go baby, just keep me but let the others go.  I'm the one who left you at the altar so punish me."; "I am not jealous of that skank Nicole.  E.J. if you are dumb enough to represent her you deserve whatever she is going to do to you."; and so on and so forth.  I didn't even watch but I'm pretty sure what I feel like happened is not too far off course from what really did.

I need someone to tell me how John was dead one day and alive again the next. If Rolf can bring people back to life then shouldn't the Brady bunch be putting in a request for Shawn senior? In fact shouldn't everyone be putting in request for various people.

I have to agree with you.  I think maybe I've watched so long that I am just "burnt" out.  The best of the show for me is the "opening" theme, hearing Tom Horton's voice and seeing the hour glass.

I agree with you. Nicole was also one of my favorite characters and I don't much care about her either. It is because they (Corday) has thrown her into a stupid, unfunny storyline. Sorry - no storyline to it - just dumb.

I used to love her chemistry with Sami. They were so good with each other - their constant bickering and poking at each other. But this vapid hatred of Sami towards her doesn't make sense. I know, the Austin thing, but hey, neither of them ended with him. And the Lucas thing, but again, Nicole doesn't want him any more. I believe they were the only reason for the animosity between them. I did NOT appreciate Sami punching her in the face - NOT funny. I'd have Sami's azz in jail for assault, but they just shrug it off and go on.

The food fight with Chloe and Nicole. Sad, sad, sad. This is not the Nicole I used to like so much. Of course, Sami is not the Sami I used to like ether. Come to think of it, Bo, Hope, Kayla, Steve, Marlena, John are not who I used to like either. Everyone on this show has been ruined. I just don't care about the "nu's" at all. Someone needs to bring back the real people and get rid of these pathetic clones.

  • Actually, I thought Sami punching Nicole was the best part of yesterday's show. I also enjoyed Nicole's little quips. Otherwise, it was a complete waste of time. /Sarah
  • I thought it was extra stupid that Nicole was told she couldn't press charges because 'your provoked her'. That's not how it works. theda
  • That's what you get when your lawyer went to law school in another country!
  • There is no storyline. There's a character with an intention and that intention is completely illogical in that it disregards the history of her being afraid of Victor. Now suddenly she thinks Phillip will magically get her the money she wants so she just takes his word for it, and instead of having lawyers in place already she hires one once she gets there? And it's EJ the first time lawyer from England. Wouldn't Mickey be handling a case that big? Is EJ even a divorce lawyer? Don't even get me started on EJ being an American if he's practicing law. eom Fashad
