daysofourlives I love watching her play Sami. Best character on DAYS.
nbcdays I have never enjoyed when Sami comes back. She is always mayhem, disrupts everyone’s lives and is like a literal wrecking ball. Now she deeply insulted John telling him he’s nothing to her and the baby. DAYS
nbcdays I love to hate Sami!!! This is the kinda love I wanted for Camilla but until this week I actually felt her pain with the whole exit / on the run with Eduardo’s shananigans!
nbcdays When is Hope and Ciara leaving?
daysofourlives So happy you are back. Don’t really care for how they are painting your character. The Holier than thou Nichole is hard to digest. I love her character but c’mon she has a very suspect past! Lol
nbcdays I love Allison she's a great actress but enough! Too many years have gone by hello... You're a character hasn't grown enough for me
nbcdays The show is always better when Sami is around!
nbcdays Sami is the last person I would like to see on DOOL
Ali is wonderful with everyone leaving the show really needs her.❤
nbcdays For those of us that aren’t as into this family dynamic as others..can we get the day or two a week or every week our interest will be given airtime? Elani, Xarah, Chabby, JnJ, Stayla, Kate/Abe, Gwen, Jake, Philip, etc
Sami Brady DiMera is a fantastic character. However her current storyline reeks. A disrespectful daughter and a family welcoming the b*tch that stole her child and watched as she grieved a child that wasn't her now the same b*tch is to raise her grandchild.
I was thinking just yesterday, if only Ali_Sweeney would just stay, DaysOfOurLives would have what it’s been missing - her talent and energy that make you WATCH! That’s not to say other actors aren’t as important, but her part of the tapestry was sorely missing. Welcome home!
nbcdays Nicole has really turned into a tattletale
daysofourlives paigeburt 🥳
nbcdays Alison Sweeney is such a great actress and I will always be a fan of sami
Please say it ain't so. Her scenes are so annoying. Sick of her and Nicole's childish behaviors.
Nooooooo! I can’t stand her. She is so out of control
Love me some Sami!! Yaaaay!
nbcdays Why why why?!?!!!! She’s already been back waaaaaay too long. Sami is obnoxious. I ff ALL her scenes , her face annoys me
nbcdays Why does anyone like Nicole? She is eavesdropping in a church and then telling belle what she overheard?
Oh brother! Sami, she’s annoying. FF all her scenes.
nbcdays Let’s see how much more writers can ruin her character...feel like I need earplugs whenever she is on maybe if they pair her back w Lucas she will calm down..
After over 50 years of being a fan, I'm done!!! Not happy with comings and goings.
YAY!!!! More Sami in Salem is NEVER a bad thing. Days
I am so ready to stop watching. Rafael, Hope, Eric, Ciara, Sonny, Will.... Once these new writers came in, the show has has a steady strong pace downhill.
Hell yeah!🤘⏳
This makes me so happy!!
🥱
nbcdays She’s been pretty annoying lately. I wish Kristian Alfonso was staying instead.
nbcdays It's A good thing I'm about to stop watching DAYS after Ciara leaves So That way I don't have to look & Listen to Sami anymore, I stand can't Her, I never did & It's Unbelievable They decided to keep Her, Gwen & Lani But they get rid of Will & Sonny? Wilson DAYS 🙄🤔
nbcdays Yaaaaaas! I love Sami! Come back wreak havoc👏🏽😂
daysofourlives Sure wish Sami could finally grow the hell up!!
nbcdays Sami is the Donald Trump of DOOL. Nothing is EVER her fault, she is exhausting. I'm tired of her.
daysofourlives Better not bring back a re-cast EJ with her. JamesScott
nbcdays Can’t stand Sami. Never liked this character
daysofourlives I can barely handle her when she’s only around for a month or two.
nbcdays They bring back Sami and fire Will and Sony. On their last day will be my last day.
nbcdays Please. I am so sick of her already 😡
daysofourlives Thrilled to hear this
nbcdays If this means less of Dr Ditz, it's a great move.
nbcdays nice one
daysofourlives
