Days of Our Lives - MESSAGE BOARDS

I am not going to say they are boring, but I will say they have saved me a great deal of money since I am no longer taking my prescriptions for insomnia

EJami is the endgame!

I use to always ff through Safe when they were in witness protection because I was an ejammer (which they did have them into each other when she first went into wpp) and wasn't interested in them bringing in another man for Sami. Recently I started actually watching their scenes together thinking they really may be making these two "the" couple so I thought maybe if I give them a chance.

I gave it a true try (not too hard because they are making EJ such an a@@ right now) but I just don't see it. You hit the nail on the head by saying no chemistry. I know it is a subjective thing, some are going to see it some arn't. For me it isn't there. I wish it was, it would be easier for me to take now. I actually like Rafe a lot but, IMO, just not with Sami. They should be brother sister. That whole scene w/Rafe and Sami when he blew up about her asking about Emily was very weird. It didn't make any sense. It made Rafe look like a real a@@. That was was bad scene for them to have between those two if they are seriously wanting everyone to accept them as a couple.
Again just my opinion!

Normally, I think Safe is cute, fun, and sweet and I saw the passion yesterday but when it was over, it was like they almost regretted it...not the normal Safe I am used to seeing. There was cute little banter but the feeling was lacking...just how I saw it.

Sami & Rafe COULD SHOW the chemistry between them if the director gave them the same amount of non-stop interuption like they gave Sami &EJ in the one mutual sex scene. That ejami scene was orchestrated so well, and I will have to say they did an awesome performance. Apparently the writers/director do not want to show SAFE in a long drawn out sexcapade or they would direct the scene just like they did the EJ/Sami scene. The actors DO what they are DIRECTED to do. Not what they WANT to do. SO, Ali & Galen could very well do an OUT OF THIS WORLD love scene IF the director WANTED them to. It is up to the director. Sometimes, I think that some fans get so caught up in the characters that they actually believe the CHARACTERS choose who and WHAT they want to do in the scene. It just dosen't happen that way. Thus far, the director hasn't told Galen and Ali to show their fans a love scene that they won't forget!!!! It just hasn't happened yet. Maybe eventually it will.
Just like the lovers scene Wednesday, Galen & Ali got about 2-3 minutes screen time to do a "quicky". Tearing off each others clothes was the only thing that was sexy. Now just how much time does that give actors to show what we want to see. I'll answer that. NONE.

If any of you ever get to talk with one of the actor's ask them do they get to pick who will be in the scene with them and choose what they will be doing and how long the scene will last.

I know, some of you do not like it when I analyze but it is the truth. Summed up...the actors do what they are told and directed to do. Some of us fans get the short end of the stick........ Amen

It's not just you. I have always said I am a Sami fan first. I love to see her different pairings. I loved her with Brandon. I loved her with Lucas and then when EJ came into the picture I loved them together even more. I never liked her with Austin. I thought they were so boring together. I feel the exact same way now with Rafe. I'm just not feeling it. I think Ali is such a great actress and Brian Datillo brings out so much fun humor in her and you can see there is a comfort level there. I think she and James Scott are Emmy worthy when they are in scenes together. That's why it's so disappointing to a Sami fan like me, that her character is being wasted on a pairing that doesn't have the chemistry and charisma that I think she deserves.
