Lumi B.A. Posts: 1,807 Group: All Access Lumi Member #1,082 Joined: December 28, 2008	MICHAEL: So coming up EJ will have more business and relationship drama? JAMES: Both, of course. It’s set up for that. Now I have a baby with Sami, and there is that relationship with Samantha that they have been teasing for years. MICHAEL: Would you love to see EJ and Sami (or affectionately known as “Jami”) get back together? Or, is it time for a new woman for EJ? JAMES: It depends on what they do with Sami, because EJ and Sami worked well when they were both bad. Recently Sami has been more of a ‘goody girl’. It’s harder to pair the ‘goody girl’ with the bad guy, but they have these kids that connect them and these huge connections between the two of them. You have to have more of that for a relationship to work. So either I have to be not so bad or she has to be not so good, or we meet in the middle. There are lot of people who are very supportive of Sami and EJ. I have now been working in soaps for six years, and it seems to me that when the fans really want something, and the networks and the producers know about it, they want to give it to you as much as you want to get it. But they want you to have to wait. MICHAEL: Right! The powers-that-be and the network brass want fans to tune in to see if the couple they are rooting for will get back together. JAMES: So I would think that Sami and EJ would be a potential relationship. I don’t think I am giving anything away about that because it seems like an obvious extension to where we are. MICHAEL: In this entire baby switch arc, you had some very big moments as an actor and as EJ. One that comes to mind was your monologue in the morgue with dead baby Grace. JAMES: The big days I felt for me were the days I lost Grace and I thought she was my daughter and when I went into the morgue. The unraveling of the material with Nicole was not as immediate, he had to piece things together and come to the realization. With Grace it was two scenes of me standing in front of Sami and one scene of me getting it. So you went from knowing nothing to everything within a short amount of time. With the Sydney story it was slightly different and more protracted. MICHAEL: But next week Stefano puts out a hit on Rafe, and things start to make sense to many people about what baby Sydney’s true parentage really is! JAMES: Stefano puts a hit on Rafe and it does not make sense to EJ. He does not like Rafe, but did not understand the orders for a hit. So he think there is clearly something going on here that he doesn’t know. So it seems to EJ that Rafe must know something about his family that his father does not want to be out as information. And that information is the DNA test that shows that Sydney is biologically Samantha’s and mine. So this is the beginning of my finding out about the real baby and what is going on. MICHAEL: Now that the truth comes out, can we expect big emotional stakes and moments between you and Alison Sweeney (Sami)? JAMES: The fact is that they don’t like each other right now very much. They are going to have to deal with this situation and put their heads together and work out how they are going to resolve a problem that is not going to go away for a long time. MICHAEL: Will there be emotional scenes when Sami gets her baby back? JAMES: I can tell you this: There is going to be a huge… huge… twist that you don’t see coming that is going to turn that story on its head. MICHAEL: When you found out that twist, were you surprised? JAMES: I was surprised, but I thought it was brilliant! Brilliant! http://michaelfairmansoaps.com/article/articleItem.cfm?cms_article_id=124

And it always cracks me up with people talk about rapemi having kids together. right. Like Allie and Will are chopped liver. I can't believe Days lets this man anywhere near the press. He sucks at them (although I do appreciate his realization that Sami doesn't like him) and his people skills are even worse. Right back at ya, James.

Keeper of the Clips Posts: 10,178 Group: Managers Member #1 Joined: November 22, 2005 Lucas & Sami are the definition of true love.	He said almost the exact same thing in May 2008 after the rapemi sex. And that's why we've had a year and a half of Ejole and a year of Safe. I especially like this part of the interview: Quote: MICHAEL: Will there be emotional scenes when Sami gets her baby back? JAMES: I can tell you this: There is going to be a huge… huge… twist that you don’t see coming that is going to turn that story on its head. Call me crazy, but the answer has nothing to do with the question. Talk about avoidance!

Lumi Masters Posts: 2,036 Group: All Access Lumi Member #888 Joined: February 22, 2008	I just wanted to mention one thing real quick ... during the Q&A at Day of Days, someone asked the whole cast if they ever inserted their own personalities into the characters they played and James answered something like, "well I find that my prior rape convictions have helped a lot" ... or something like that ... I actually lol'd at that, for a few reasons, but then thought, what a jackass ... that was a stupid thing to say! LOL. Still kinda funny though ... for various reasons

Lumi Masters Posts: 2,036 Group: All Access Lumi Member #888 Joined: February 22, 2008	Someone asked him what his most embarrassing dating experience was ... and he said that he couldn't think of one that was appropriate to tell and he would keep thinking about it and if he thought of something he could share he would pick up the mic again and tell ... so that left an awkward silent moment before the host guy was like, ok .. and moved on to the next question, lol. Someone asked JR about the best acting advice he ever got ... his answer was to love it. Someone asked LK to help petition the show to get Adam Lambert to guest star on the show ... lol ... Someone asked Bill and Susan how they fell in love and the secret to a long-lasting Hollywood marriage ... they sang, it was cute.... someone asked about Francis Reid, and we were told that she is 94, doing well, but that it is hard for her to sit or stand for a long time, and that she is in "the best" care facility in Beverley Hills (I think). Someone asked Renee Jones her secret for beautiful skin... she answered eating well ... Someone asked the kids what it was like to grow up on the show and the kid who plays Theo answered "it is really fun, and it is really boring when you just sit around" LOL ... some 6 year old kid asked the girl who plays Ciara if she likes being on the show and if she still has to go to school ... Oh and there was a really cute lady who was celebrating her 75th birthday and she wanted to meet "Stefano" so bad .. so he stood up and lead everyone in singing happy birthday to her .. it was really sweet. I can't remember any other questions right now, but there was nothing really significant to the show or anything like that.
