My goodness - I could feel her seething over my cornflakes!!!  Can not get over how AliS. has MULTIPLIED as an actress!!  I thought she was great - and it was finally an excellant payoff to a loooong overdue conflict.

I also thought for sure that if Nicole/AZ were not pregant IRL, the scene would have been MUCH more physical and Sami would have been tackling her all over that room.  Instead - the arm-grabbing and double slaps were to suffice.

Nice job - to both blondes - now pleeeeeeease just let AZ sit down!

 

And of course, to have Chloe as the big 'pivotal' character is so sbsurd - and her being in all those climactic scenes just really brings the whole drama down.  Give this girl something to do other than ruin scenes.  Just put her in a closet some place to hum to herself - but enough of the oh-no-not-her-again halt in momentum that she brings to every scene she's in.  It's such a shame because by some strange force, Nadia used to know how to act.  I think she was abducted by aliens - and they somehow stole her ability to act.

You know - while reading these I realized something.  Obviously the entire cast is well aware of these storylines and how long they get dragged out.  Clearly, both Ali S. and Ari Z. were up for it and seemed to give it their all - which they did quite successfully.  And we can only imagine how totally ballistic EJ is going to go (like right through the DiMera Roof).  So my question is:  Would it have been TOTALLY impossible for Nadia to even attempt to bring her A-game to these scenes?????  I mean did she HAVE to go through even these scenes as if she was completely sleepwalking??  And BTW, scenes that were built up to for almost an entire year (OK - 11 months with the babies being born in January).  Did she honestly NOT know how critically important these scenes were - and here she is just feigning her way through them.  WHAT is going on in that girl's mind??  Is she just focused on her cleavage and thinking that that makes up for her abyssmal acting?? C'mon honey - atleast TRY!!!!  Eventhough she was in a coma for the majority of the time, the whole idea of now putting her at the center of this climax is totally preposterous.  And can someone pleeease tell her to take her shoes OFF the bed when she's taking a nap???  Who sleeps with their stilts on - especially when caring for a baby!!

  • LOL - I should've figured someone would catch onto that - - no, actually, it is a VERY late breakfast which I purposelly hold off on until Days so I don't feel so guilty 'wasting' a solid hour watching this madness - although today, it was quite worth it!

    I have still not recovered from the storyline a few years ago where Chloe had the big fake scar shaped like the state of Florida on her face and moped around pining for Brady.  While I think the actress is very pretty that character is a Debbie Downer; it's like she walks around with a permanent dark cloud over her head.

    I don't think she was abducted by aliens. I think she was abducted by botox.

    Totally agree with you on all counts.  Chloe definitely put a damper on the scenes.  It was ludicrous to even have her involved like that.  With that being said - I loved today's show.  This show is actually good again!  It isn't what it used to be (I mean that positively and negatively).  Brava to Alison! I am proud of the Sami character for the most part.  Sami is usually the one on the receiving end of dramatic reveals/confrontations.  Nice to see it the other way around.  EJ is going to kill Nicole and Stefano with his bare hands.
