    If I remember correctly I think that was mentioned and it was brought up that it would be his word against theirs and with their lawyers and as slippery as they are with the DNA that Nicole had being gone they need something concrete.

    They’ve got enough talent in the staff I’m sure someone could even write something original for her to sing.  Wouldn’t have to be a complete 3 minute song but just a few bars for a short scene.

    I agree.  When I was working in Chicago 2 of our co-workers were from Poland and when we’d all be in the department break room they’d start talking to each other in Polish.  One of the older women finally had enough and told them they were being rude and if they wanted to talk privatly they needed to go someplace else.

    You know Stefano has more than one cop in his back pocket.  It’s still going to happen and it will be before he talks.

    She would have been a great Arianna.  I know she works for the FBI and think she’s an old partner of Rafe’s

    I thought it was Vern who owned the Spectator and he married Jack’s mother, Jo.

    When I started watching GOT I thought it was medevil but Don set me straight. It’s a mythical land and there are a LOT of surprises.  You need to keep the families straight to figure out who’s bedding their own sibling and who’s in line to the throne.

    When Vivian lost all her money Ivan won the lottery and took her out of Salem in style.  If I remember correctly he still wanted to serve his madam and they sailed off into the sunset.

    Wasn’t Belle living in the loft with Phillip before they got married?  Then she had sex with Shawn D before her wedding though neither remembered it. 

    The problem with the way they handle minority storylines and I hope they don’t do that with the gay storyline is they talk about it then it’s either forgotten about and it’s like it never happened due to a different direction they’re going to take the characters or there’s a quick cure that doesn’t really exist. 

    Abe’s blindness they kept going for more than a week but he was on the waiting list for a transplant for such a short time.  They used it twice to have conflict and problems between him and Lexie and to allow her to cheat.

    Benji’s deafness they didn’t write out but they didn’t keep Benji around for long either.  Kayla’s deafness was short lived and miraculously gone on her wedding day.

    Look at Theo’s autism.  He’s still autistic and mentioned once in a while but he got in therapy and his social interaction improved overnight. 

    Patch’s eye was the one thing that remained consistent but they tried to write that out at one point. 

    Sami’s the only one that’s suffered or shown signs of the trauma of her childhood with having her dad missing then having him return only to find out he wasn’t her dad then her mom disappears then returns then her real dad comes back and catching her mom on the conference table with another man then to have her father and her mother disappear then have her dad killed and her mother arrested for murder.  Sami herself was in prison and on death row.  All of her problems and revenge tendencies have been explained as due to her childhood.  Eric had the same childhood except he didn’t see his mother on the conference table.  Not to mention all the trauma caused by Kate.  Chloe had a horrible childhood and except for the loss of confidence and brain she was fairly normal before she left for her opera career.  All the characters who found their parents later in life have perfectly normal relationships with them or their siblings.  Yeah, Billie had a drug problem due to her father but she got off of them quick.  Bo has a strained relationship with Victor but other than that there’s no problem.  Ciara has had some problems but 10:1 she’ll grow to be a normal adult.  Johnny, Allie and Sydney will probably be normal healthy teens and adults.  If I lived in Salem I’d be needing a room with rubber walls with all the drama and mind blowing events that happen there. 

    Will’s being gay should always remain there but not be front and center.  It’s just a part of Will, his character and personality and it’s not something that has to be discussed constantly but they shouldn’t change that or have him suddenly straight just because they decide to pair him with a female down the line.

    Don had read the books and said it’s followed them fairly well so far.  He’s told me what’s going to happen in future episodes and I can’t wait to see it unfold.

    Another forgotten about minority is those that are celebate until marriage.  How about having storylines on that topic.  No, instead we have everyone bed hopping with every person they meet of the opposite sex.  Chloe’s so upset she’s been turned into a prostitute but she’s no different than anyone else in Salem except she now gets paid for it.

    Falling Skies is another one we watch.  We were watching Game of Thrones when it was on and I’m looking forward to next season when they continue that story.

    I second that.

    I’m tired of the only evil the DiMera’s can do is based on revenge against people or families.  I’d love to see the evil be business related.  A DiMera v.s. Kiriakas in business would be good but not personal assaults and plots to ruin individual people or families anymore.

    I loved when Kate first came to Salem and worked at Titan.  The way she manipulated herself into Victor’s life and bed.  Nicole doing the same thing.  Go back to Titan publishing and Bella magazine and do something with those as well as Basic Black.  Have them fighting over some author or new venture, business takeover.  We’ve never seen anything with the business side of DiMera Enterprises except for the mind controls, mind chips and evil doppelgangers.

    History Detectives on PBS started a few weeks ago and we have to watch Royal Pains, Eureka, Warehouse 13.  The there’s Chaos which should be ending for the season sometime soon.  Finishing up with 2 episodes to go of Gene Simmons: Family Jewels (think they’re leading up to a marriage proposal on the last show).

    I know there are probably other shows but for the life of me can’t remember any of them right now.

    I’m just hoping the next time she tries to get on the bus to Chicago Lexie and Abe aren’t there to talk her out of it.
