Not that anyone cares what I think about the Sami Brady / E.J. / Lucas saga on Days of Our Lives, but I’ll say it anyway. I’ve always been in to Sami’s character. I usually fast forward the whole show and JUST watch Sami. When she finally tied the knot, I thought great, now she can finally be happy. But now she’s leaving her husband who has been so good to her… so she can marry her rapist to stop a family feud. Her rapist!

Don’t get me wrong, I know soap operas are silly. I know they’re, at times, borderling insanity. They’re not real and they’re redundant most of the time.

But for the fourth time in 13 years (the other times I stopped watching were either cause I didn’t have cable or was in the process of moving somewhere), I have stopped watching the show. It’s been two full weeks since I stopped watching. I know this won’t be a permanent thing, as the show does change. But personally, I can’t support a marriage to a rapist. It’s silly, I know, considering all the horrible things Sami has done in the past (kidnapping, blackmail, attempted murder, etc.)… but I think the writers of the show have either hit an all-time low (the reason she is marrying him is absolutely far-fetched beyond any reason whatsoever), or maybe this was a smart move to upset people and get people talking.

Maybe I’ll start watching again in 3 or 4 months when she leaves EJ. I love seeing Sami happy, which is why I watch the show. But this is absolutely ridiculous. If any of you are DOOL fans, feel free to clue me in when she gets the marriage annulled so I can start watching again.

P.S. I can still hear my dad’s voice, “Get over it. It’s a soap opera.”
