I think Sonny is able to defend himself, at least that's one of the things i'm liking about the storyline (soap gay characters have a tendency to be whiny and helpless no matter how big and strong is the actor who portray them, probably because plot driven storyline usually have that problem).

And i don't understand why is T looking for vengeance, because Sonny did nothing to him, T was the one who want to take the pictures and the one who posted them online. And he seems a little stupid, not only Sonny seems to be the type that not let noone bully him, but Sonny's family seems quite dangerous.

I agree, jjose. Sonny doesn't need Will or anyone else coming to his rescue. He is more than capable of laying a beatdown on Sonny if it comes to that. But you would really think after Victor got all up in T's ass he would realize what family he is trying to mess with.

But sadly, I guess you really can't change stupid since T seems the posterchild for it now.

I agree with you on that I understand that Days wants to stay true to life with this storyline and that's fine.But after awhile it's going to get old and once Kinsey leaves I don't see any point in keeping T around.Unless they are going to use him for Gabby.

Based on T seeking revenge against Sonny, I have a feeling most of the young crowd will be turning their backs on him, so he might as well head out of Salem.

I am just wondering why Gabi feels the need to seduce Will if they already had sex. I'm getting confused with this mess.

I for one think the story is still on. I think the new writers want this to be their story not DHs. Perhaps they thought the way it was currently written would not do the story justice. After the new writers were hired we have

1. Camilla's interview where she flat out states that Will is gay.

2. Deidre's interview where she talks about Will's storyline being "wonderful"

3. Now Casey and Molly's interview where I thought it was pretty evident that it would not be Chad.

Am I the only one who thought that the Will/Gabi scenes this week gave us plenty of sublte hints? Will obviously thought it did not go very well. Gabi didn't look overjoyed. There was absolutely nothing sexy or steamy about their scenes. Just my thoughts.

Guys the story is going to happen. It will be slow going but it is still on.


4. It came from Corday's own mouth after the new writers were hired when he interviewed with SOD. "It will be written much more slowly and carefully. It's a story about one of our characters coming to grips with who he is."

Yeah, but what if they changed the storyline? What if they made WIll straight instead, because of backlash from the conservative viewers/Gabbi & Will fans or just because Ken Corday is homophobic. I for one wouldn't put it past him to do something like that. And there would be no outcry either, because he never really did promise us anything. All he said was that Will would be "involved" in the storyline. He would have nothing to lose by dropping the storyline, but all the more to gain by doing it.

I still think they have changed the Will storyline so that Will is straight, all the sublte hints are dropped all of a sudden, and there's no development anymore. It has just completely grinded to a hault.

I hope I'm wrong, but I do have a bad feeling about this, and have had so for a while now.

Probably Will is still upset...

[overtherainbow]

OMG.. either this is bad writing, bad acting or both.. I'd go for the former. Bad writing all around, is this still Higley's stuff? It's going back and forth, back and forth. There's no consistency at all! I thought the new writers' stuff had kicked in already, hmm..

I think what we are seeing on screen right now is still DHs writing. From what I understand the re-writes don't take place until next week. You could be right about them changing the characters but I doubt it. Still with Will as I have seen plenty of hints even though they are moving at a turtle's pace.

I just hope no matter what happens we get a powerful story that educates people.

[justinate]

Why's Will so upset that Gabi let slip to Kinsey that they've slept together? It's not like she went around shouting it from the rooftops. Granted, Kinsey is the last person I'd tell any private stuff to, but I don't think it merits Will cold-shouldering Gabi to the point that she has to "seduce" him.

[Ed]

Maybe the spoiler could mean that Gabi seduces Will because she wants a third round.

MOst teenaged guys wouldn't need to be seduced if given the opportunity to have sex with Gabi.

Because one, Kinsey has a big mouth so Gabi might as well have did a tweet about it on Twitter. Secondly, Will didn't really look that elated after he had sex with Gabi and she really didn't look all rosey glowed either.

I doubt Will is cold shouldering Gabi either, more like he is pretending like everything is fine and she knows better cuz she knows Will.

Hey dcv3, which Deidre interview are you talking about here, and any chance you could give me a link to it? She's done quite a number over the last few weeks and I'd like to take a read of it. Thanks.

I know I hear ya people want this storyline to happen like now.Give it time let Will and Sonny develope a friendship first.I think the people who don't want Sonny and Wil together are the people who want Will and Chad together and that's NOT going to happen.

I agree about giving it time. I mean, I'll be as upset and annoyed as anyone if they do wimp out on making Will gay, but assuming that's still where the story is going, I'm happy to let them take their time in getting there. I'm very happy they're not throwing Sonny and Will together into an instant romance like the old writers seemed far too prone to doing.

I think that Dena Higley did just want to throw Sonny and Will together without even so much as a friendship.In which people were not going to buy I think this new approach is much better.

[pru]

It is much better and I think having them develop a strong friendship will benefit them when they both start feeling more. And there is no doubt in my mind Dena would have had them in some insta-romance that no one would by.

We need to see Will slowly realize he likes boys and then start to deal with it before he has feelings for Sonny and then visa versa as well.

Exactly, the Will and Chad fantasy is not going to happen if it were there would have been no need to bring Sonny onscreen.

When Camila Banus said at the Daytime Emmys that Will would be gay I believe that Days were already tapping the re-writes or about too.I could be wrong about that and if I am please correct me.

I think you are right. Days tapes three months in advance. The Emmys were on June 19 which means they were taping the shows that will air in the middle of September.
