Welcome back! You are so amazing. I don't know how you find the energy to do all you do without complaining and with such professionalism!

I have a weird question: If Sami's hair could be any other color, what would it be and why?

Thanks for blogging Ali!

I'm thrilled to see you and Bry working together again. And Dylan, he's the perfect Will. I'm ecstatic that the Lumily is back onscreen. Hopefully we'll get to the bottom of some storylines, like who really shot Sami's rapist.
Megan & Ben sound so cute together. Love his nicknames for her!
LUMI forever!

Welcome back Ali! Glad to hear baby Megan is sleeping well(knock on wood), as a whose raised twin girls I know what joy that can be lol.

I'm looking forward to seeing what Days has in store for the fans and Sami, especially in regards to the baby switch. Plus looking forward to the new season of Biggest Loser.

I wanted to add that your scenes with Bryan and Ari have been wonderful, but I loved your scenes with James the last couple of days. Sami and EJ really spark on screen, and I'm looking forward to seeing more.

As another poster said above, my question is kinda weird: But do you watch basketball? and if so do you have a favorite team lol. I'm an NBA fan and like hearing who people root for.

Ali, just wanted to say Thank-You for being so dedicated to your fans. I am so happy that you are back to work and everything is going well for you. I have really enjoyed your scenes with Galen and James. YOu rock girl!!!! I am so happy you don't let people who come to this blog, with negative intent to get you down. Some people just don't know how to relax.lol I am happy you don't let the negativity stop you from communicating with your fans. You also have been doing a terrific job with the Biggest Loser, honestly, I don't know how you do it. You are truly an inspiration to all women.

BTW,

I must say I am looking forward to see how this baby switch will end and will EJ and Sami ever get together.

Again, thanks so much for being so dedicated, to all your fans. Also I enjoyed your interview in SOD, I have always said how professional you keep things. I have noticed how you have remained to stay neutral when giving interviews, eveyone should take lessons. lol

Rachelle

awww...I'm glad you have a good tempered baby. That must make is easier with your crazy schedule. I have been a fan of days for over 25 years and you had me cracking up...way to one up Galen. Ha! Sami has always been a favorite character of mine, I don't know how Days would survive without you. I'm glad we get you all to ourselves for a little while. I miss seeing your beautiful face in Salem everyday. I think EJ missed Sami too Here is my question: How would you go about raising a daughter like Samantha Gene Brady? :o)

Welcome back Ali! Glad to read everything is going well! So happy that Sami is back in Salem. I have really enjoyed your scenes with EJ, the twins and Sydney. Looking foward to the baby reveal and the fall out. Its terrible that Sami has missed precious bonding time with her daughter. I can only imagine how difficult it will be for Sami to deal with that. Thank you for keeping us informed.
Mary

Ali, Congrats on the baby. How is ben doing with his little sister? Can't wait to see Sami get a break for once and find her prince, though your character always makes it interesting to watch. One of the reasons I watch it and got my 12 year old when she gets home from school:)

Hi Ali
We loved that trip down memory lane too. And we have sooo missed seeing you and Bryan work together. You both along with Dylan rocked those scenes. And reminded me why I love LUMI. Can’t wait till we get them BACK!

Hey Ali,
Congrats on finishing another season of TBL, and somehow keeping your head above water! I don't know how you do it all. It was nice to see Sami's "return" include Lumily scenes! I really like the new Will, I think he is great so far! Loved, loved, loved your scenes with Bryan ... I have missed them too!! It's been way too long! You and Bryan still bring that special chemistry to the screen, even after all of these years, there is just no comparison. I am anxious for a REAL Lumi reunion!!

So let me think of a 'weird' question ... ok, got it ... If you and Kyle B. were to switch bodies, what would be the best and the worst aspects of that experience? =)

Take Care,
Aimee

Hi Ali!

Thank you for giving us some amazing LUMI scenes again! Days just haven't been the same without Lucas & Sami together. I was so happy to see their history being brought up. With all of the cuts being made to longterm characters like John, Marlena, Steve, Kayla etc. it's more important than ever to cherish and honor the history between Lucas & Sami.
Dylan is great as Will. As someone above said, perfect casting! I can't wait til he has scenes with Johnny, Allie, Grace & Sydney - perfect LUMI names for Grace & Sydney btw. It was great of the writers to honor Alice Horton's father Sid Grayson with those two names!
So TBL has wrapped up? I can't wait to watch the rest of the season. I have no idea who's going to win, but I sure like this crop of contestants more than last season's.
Ben is the perfect big brother! Megan is so lucky!
Thanks for blogging!
Carole

Here's my question.

If you were playing "Who wants to be a millionaire" and had a sports trivia question that you didn't know the answer to, which of your Days co-stars would you call for the "phone a friend"?

Carole

lol @ galen us passions fans remember when luis was also on death row
ali thats great the megan is a good sleeper and eater
did you have a 4th bday party for ben and did any of your co stars come with their kids ?

loving SAFE ;)

Aww, Ben and his little sis sound so cute. Lucas and Sami's scenes with nuWill were awesome! Looking forward to a LUMI reunion.

Thanks for blogging again Ali! I am thrilled that Sami is not only back in Salem, but that she seems to be a more "mature" Sami. On a personal note, I would love to see EJ and Sami have a real shot at being together. Nothing against the Lucas/Sami fans, or the EJ/Nicole fans or even the Rafe/Sami fans, but I really think that EJ and Sami are the only 2 that really "get" each other. We've been down the "Lucas" road too many times before to go there again, so I hope they just keep them as good friends. (I've been watching for about 25 years so I'm kind of over them as a couple.)

Now, my question is this... Are you going to let Kyle have you do another "Taste test"??? I heard the "water" one and when you drank the "special surprise water" it was priceless! :) Please let us know when Kyle posts the podcast! You two crack me up together!

Hi Ali, first of all i want to tell you that im from Mexico city, and i love your show, its amazing to see how these people decide to lose weight, and how there lifes change after the show its over,i thing that it woul be a great idea that you make a internacional biggest losser, i know you have done in other countries this show like in england and Australia, in fact they have done this same show in mexico city and they call it "cuanto quieres perder" (How much do you wan to lose)but i think that it would be a great idea having people for other countries in the same show... the true is that i want to lose weight,i would love get away from my home and my country for 3 months, and came back looking complete diferrent, more healthy mental and physic, the true is that i try to be part of these reality in Mexico city, but i couldnt be in tha last 14, and when i see that you are making casting for the 8 season, i read that you have to live in US and be an american, beleve me you wont be regreated if you give me one chance, to change my life.... by the way i have passport and visa, usually i go to the USA twice a year... first of all thanks for your time and belive me you wont be regreated of giving me this one only chance for change my life...

Hi Ali,
I loved the LUMI scenes, they made me realize how much I love and miss LUMI! You and Bryan have such a special magic together. I think the new Will fits in really well with you all. I can't wait for more LUMI scenes, and hopefully a reunion!!

Thanks for blogging,
Natalie

I love nuWill. He fits right in with you and Bryan. I loved the LUMI scenes, too. Can't wait for LUMI to get back together!!

Hi Ali
Congrats on your family and TBL.
My question is: Will Sami ever get to be happy?? and will Rafe be the one that to tame Sami down?
Keep up the good work, god bless and keep it cool

Aww...HEY ALI!! I'm so glad you're back! And Sami's back in Salem! I'm glad that Ben and Meghan are doing well! That's great! How sweet and cute is that! Watch those "knuckles" girl! We love you so much and can't have you harmed in any way, not even "knuckle" harm! LOL!! You are so gorgeous and amazing! And so talented!

Yeah, Ali...I totally remember those scenes and storylines! And do you remember [i]WHO[/i] was responsible for you dying on death row? Do you remember [i]WHO[/i] it was that committed the crime and left you on death row to die and rot in the first place? Do you remember who it was that tried to kill you several other times as well and who abuses and abandons your character constantly? Remember...it was Lucas! And people try to act like they have a problem with EJ...LOL!! That is like the biggest joke I've EVER heard Ali! EJ is MILES better and waaaayyy better at with Sami and loving her and their family together than that jerk Lucas who does nothing but abuse and neglect Sami and the children over and over again! And always, always, puts another woman above my girl Samantha Gene! I hate that little dwarf snot Lucas with you and your character! He abuses women and has absolutely no idea how to treat your character or love her. But he always treats other women better than Sami! He always feels the need to abuse, control, belittle, and abandon Sami! That little twit! I can't stand Lucas with Sami! I'm so incredibly sick and tired of that garbage! And of Lucas treating her awful and abusing her and blaming her for EVERYTHING ALL THE TIME!

So, I'm sooo glad that Sami has matured since meeting EJ in 2006 and is moving on with EJ & Rafe and is leaving that little twit snot abusive and controlling Lucas behind! FINALLY!! GO SAMANTHA GENE! And she has 2 hotter and better guys for her and one, EJ, that actually loves her, always has and always will, and wants her and has children with her! And what a beautiful family EJ & Sami have together! I can't wait until EJ & Sami get that disgusting tramp and Child Kidnapper Nicole and make her life miserable! Alison, I want your character to punch the lights out of Ari's character Nicole!

I'm a HUGE Samantha Brady & Alison Sweeney fan! I ALWAYS have been! And I DO NOT want to see my favorite girl and favorite soap actress with that loser jerk Lucas or being abused by that little dwarf snot Lucas any longer! I'm sooooo INCREDIBLY happy that Samantha is growing up and moving on from him and his abuse and trashy treatment of her! She's put up with enough of Lucas's garbage and abuse! I'm sooo glad that Sami is getting smarter and just moving on and letting that go! She needed to let go of that dwarf jerk and abusive loser Lucas, he was bringing her down and making her weak and pathetic! I'm so proud of Sami for moving on and away from Lucas and accepting her love for EJ and wanting to move on with him! And for all the haters out there, EJ didn't rape her, she could have said NO! But she didn't, she accepted the deal between two consenting adults! And Sami loves him and has no problem with him! And neither does the show! Everyone is moving on! So, either move on, grow up, or get left behind!

GOOO EJAMI!!!!
~Kristen~

Thank you for taking time out of your crazy-busy schedule to share! I'm very glad Megan and Ben are doing so well together!

I missed seeing you and Bryan onscreen together, and I really enjoyed Lucas, Sami, and Will this past week.

And you know something Alison, its funny how people want to condemn your character (who raped Austin) and absolutely EVERYTHING she does; these are the same people/fans that betrayed you and left you behind for Arianne Zucker and switched their loyalties to her and her character, and who want to condemn everything that EJ does...but yet they have absolutely NO problem cheering for and cheering on a Child Kidnapper who has tried to murder men before, like Victor and Colin, who hurt and broke your twin brother Eric Brady's (Jensen Ackles) heart for $5 million dollars, and who is now doing horrible things to your character...but yet they have no problem cheering for her and rooting her on and being with your man EJ, but yet they still want to try to condemn EJ and EJAMI. And then Alison, they condemn EVERYTHING that your character does and that EJ does and those two characters being together...but yet Alison, they don't seem to have a problem at all with the way Lucas treats, abuses, neglects, and abandons Sami and the children ALL THE TIME! Lucas is a abusive jerk! But Alison, they don't seem to have a problem with that! Can you say HYPOCRITES Alison?? I mean seriously!

And Alison, I'm so sorry that people/fans are being so rude, immature, and nasty to you and your co-star James and his character, to the studio and the show, and that they are playing around with and making a joke of such a situation, all just to keep two characters apart that the MAJOR MAJORITY of the audience love and want! But those same immature hypocritical people/fans have ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEM with the other serious situations on the show as murdering people, shooting people in churches and almost shot your character in the church too Alison because Sami had a bullet hole in her dress, abusing and abandoning women (Lucas) and attempted murderers, Biggamists, and Child Kidnappers, and they don't say anything about those characters and what they've done Alison! In fact they root for them Ali! How exactly does that look and does that work! Alison, that's called being hypocrites, immature, and un-classy! A bunch of lying, disgusting, dis-loyal, and immature nasty hypocrites! You can't condemn one, while rooting for and cheering on others! That's just stupid and shows that you have no problem at all with situations on the show or you would condemn them all! Because there are absolutely no perfect and saintly characters on this show!

And Alison, I want to say to you that I'm sooo EXTREMELY sorry that you have to put up with dis-loyal, immature, and nasty hypocritcal fans like that! That constantly disrespect you, your character and your co-stars like James and his character and the studio and the show! I'm so sorry that you all have to put up with fans like that, that don't know how Soap Operas work, and don't know how to grow up! So sorry Alison! I wish you and your co-star would just come out and tell them to "Shut-up! And grow up! Or just stop watching all together! But we're moving on!" The studio and the show have pretty much told them themselves...to just "Shut-up! Because they're moving on!" Alison, you're so nice! But you can do it girl! Just tell these rude and obnoxius immature fans to "SHUT-UP!! Or just stop watching! But you, James, the show, the studio, and both your characters are moving on!" Tell them Alison, "They don't seem to have a problem with the other stuff on the show and what those characters are doing! So, its obvious that they don't have a problem with this...and are just using it as an excuse! And it really isn't funny or to be made out of joke, all for the sake of two soap characters! Grow up!" Tell them Alison...tell them to "SHUT-UP! And GROW UP!!" We will still love you! Trust me! We will! You need to say it Alison! Just tell them! It's okay girl! Because they are absolutely pathetic, rude, and immature to not only your fans, but to your co-stars, and the place that your work as well! They have no class, no loyalty, or respect Alison! And its so sad and awful that you all have to deal with and put up with crazy and insane people like that...who don't know the difference between television/fantasy and reality! Alison, I'm so glad that you, the studio and the show, your co-star James, and Sami & EJ are moving on from all of that and are moving on together and I can't wait!

Hey Ali!
I'm so very happy that you're back! I missed you, and you & James, I missed Sami, and I missed EJAMI so very much!! And that's so sweet and cute of Ben with his baby sister Meghan! Glad that she, you, and your family are happy and doing well!

I LOVE EJ & SAMI SOOOO VERY MUCH!!!!!! And so proud and happy to be apart of such a fun, dedicated, very loyal, and very classy fanbase like EJAMI! And Team Jamison (James & Alison!) And I'm a HUGE SAMI & ALI FAN!! Always have been! That's the problem Alison, these people that are crying and whinning about absolutely nothing, and trying to make a joke out of a situation just to try to keep EJ & Sami apart, Ali those same people that are whinning about nothing, are absolutely insane and need to seek help, and that are immature and won't grow up, they don't care about ANY of these characters on your show Ali or who they are, or their stories! All they are focused on is couple, couple, couple, and "I hate this character," and "I want to try to keep this couple apart so I'll say this...", Ali they don't care about these characters or this show AT ALL!

Well, I LOVE SAMANTHA GENE!! And I LOVE EJAMI!!! I LOVE EJ & SAMI!! I LOVE JAMES & ALI!! They're the new & best SUPER-COUPLE that DAYS has ever had! LOVE Santo & Colleen! LOVE EJ & SAMI together! They belong together! Alison, you & James rock together! Just absolutely amazing and wonderful REAL chemistry that you all don't have with anyone else on that show! And such a amazing love story! I love the whole Brady-DiMera soulmates that belong together story and their family together!

And I'm so glad that those 2 families are united through EJ & Sami and their love for each other and their children! I've ALWAYS wanted your character to be apart of the DiMera family! And for you to be Mrs. DiMera! And I'm so glad that she is!! YEA!!! You're DEFINITELY the DiMera Queen!! Go Ali & Sami & EJAMI!!!!
~EJAMI 4 EVA & ALWAYS!!!~
Jessica

Welcome Back! It is so great hearing you reminisce about old story lines! Congrats on the baby it is good to read you blogs again!

Okay, here is my "weird" question

It is no doubt that Sami is the most addicting character on days, so say she had Lindsay Hartley (who ruled passions as far as characters go) on Days do you think the Two characters would end up as a bad girl duo or as mortal enemy's?

I would love to see her on the show, you two would make the whole show I bet! oh and her cute hubby too!

Hey Ali,

Thanks for the great DOOL update. So glad to hear you and Meghan both are doing well. I must say you look fantastic for having just given birth. I really am curious to know how you find time the time and energy to have 2 jobs, 2 kids and all the other family stuff while not going insane and having enough time for yourself? What's the secret? My question would be what was the most difficult storyline or scene you've had to do playing Sami and what was the most easiest for you?

I am huge Sami fan, always have been always will be. You are the reason I started watching DOOL and I really hope Ejami will reunite.

Hi Ali. Glad to have you back. Loved the LUMI scenes, and I am looking forward to more. The new kid playing Will is good, and you all have a really nice family chemistry. Can't wait to see more LUMI!!

Thanks for posting,
Jenn

I was SO HAPPY to finally get some LUMI scenes!!!!! You and Bryan still have "IT". The new Will fits right in, too. Thanks for posting about everything,it is always great to hear from you. I can't wait for more Lucas and Sami, they are the BEST!!

Lots of Love~
Randa

Hi Ali, I'm really glad you and Bryan are getting more scenes together, and I LOVE nuWill. The Lumily definitely needs more scenes as a family. I also love that the writers got some of the Lumi history correct. I can't wait for the reveal that Johnny and Sydney are really Lucas's and for Lumi to reunite for REAL.
Love,
Kari

Hey there Alison!
It's so good to hear that you and your family are doing well! And about your cute new baby girl Meghan! How swee!

Alison, it's so great to see Sami moving on and trying to re-unite with her ex-husband EJ, who she loves so much! EJ & Sami are so in-love, what an amazing couple! You & James/EJ & Sami do it so effortlessly, so flawlessly, and so beautifully together!
What an amazing and captivating strong, passionate, and deep love story EJ & Sami have together! I love that they have 3 children together, Johnny, the new baby girl, and baby Ali (because she's EJ's too! Ali! And I can't wait until they get back to that story and reveal, like they were doing in the summer but then it got dropped with your pregnancy. So, I can't wait until they get back to that reveal that little baby Ali is EJ's as well! He loves her so much as if she was his own! And raised her since she was born! Ali, maybe and hopefully they'll reveal it at the same time that they reveal your new daughter with EJ! That would be great! EJ gets his two daughters back, and his wife and love of his life, Samantha back with their family together!)

I hope that EJ & Sami continue growing their family together! I love that they are groomed to have a big family together and to be the new Brady-DiMera family! That's going to be great! I know how much Sami & EJ both would love to have a big family together and how much they love each other! And that's awesome!

I'm so glad you're back Alison! And can't wait for more EJAMI love & family! Loved the family scenes with EJ & Sami, you two do it like it just comes naturally and with so much ease! Just flawless and perfect together! Like it was just always meant to be! And I'm glad that Sami is realizing it, knowing it, and no longer running away from what is fated and destined to be! Her & EJ and their family together! I'm glad that Sami loves her EJ DIMERA and has finally told him that!! That was so sweet and romantic! And Ali, you and James did it wonderfully! You were so perfect, loving, and open with it! It was beautiful! Thank you Ali! Finally! I loved it so much! Sami telling EJ how much she loves him and worries about him! I loved it so much Ali! And you did a great job with it!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you and James so very much! You two are wonderful together! And the scenes with you and James and your new daughter together, when you first returned were beautiful! Such a lovely and gorgeous family together! That absolutely belong together! I'm glad and extremely happy that all of your scenes have mainly been with James (EJ!), that's wonderful and great to see! And a great decision because you two are just great together! And its so good to see EJAMI moving towards coming back to each other! And how you were just looking at EJ (James), in those scenes at the DiMera Mansion when you returned, so loving and like you were just in awe of him and so in-love! Thank you so much for that Ali! You played it beautifully! And I loved it! You love EJ so much!!! It was great to see that!

And I can't wait until EJAMI reunites!!! YEA!! That's going to be beautiful, powerful, and amazing! And what thousands upon thousands more have been waiting to see again and since your amazing, HOTT, loving and absolutely perfect love scene in May that created you & EJ's new daughter together! I'm so very excited and can't wait to see the Super-Couple EJAMI together and to see them reunite!
EJAMI FOREVER!!!!
Trisha

What do you think of fans who bash your co-stars? Also, do you get irritated with fans who can't spell your daughter's name correctly in these comments, despite the fact that you posted it in your blog?

Keep up the great work!

I have watched days for years, and NO other couple have moved me the way lumi do. They share an unique bond. Not only because they share four children (yes I believe all sami’s children are Lucas’ and made out of love, not rape and manipulation) but also because they share one soul. These two have been to hell and back, as best friends, partner in crimes, enemies, parents and lovers. I never, nor will I ever see the relationship of Lucas and sami as abusive. Nor was one of them ever a victim. They are each others equals IN ALL WAY POSSIBLE. The scenes over the couple of days have shown me and the majority of the viewers that Lumi still have IT! The spark, the energy and the love that goes beyond friendship is STILL THERE! Last summer Lumi were unrightfully broken up. I can not wait for these two soul mates to reunite and raise their family, a new generation of Horton-Brady! Can’t wait for more lumi!

hey Alsion i really enjoy safe they have great chem and hope they are the engame

Hi Ali-- I absolutely adore you! I have been watching days for over 20 years & have watched you grow up on the show. I love you on the BL too! You make that show interesting. Congrats on the baby! I have followed your life through the years & am thrilled to be able to write a message to you. I have 2 friends who are DAYS loyal fans too! Days is the only show that I have ever watched, I've even gotten my husband hooked. By the way, I hope Sami sticks with RAFE!!! You guys have such chemistry on the show!! LOVE HIM!!!! Take care! Would LOVE to meet you & the cast of Days one day.

I enjoy your Blog so much!

Its great to see you working with Bryan again!! You guys are the greatest together! Cant wait to see Lots of LUMI scenes coming up.

I have been a fan of the show my entire life and you and Bryan are my favorites.

I'm so glad you and Bry are working together again and that with nuWill, the Lumily is back together. I'm so excited to see Sami and Lucas reunite and discover that Johnny and Sydney are his.

Ok, here's my question!
Who do YOU want to see Sami end up with? EJ, Lucas, or Rafe?

And I'm glad Megan isn't giving you any trouble...yet!

Ali, isn't it about time you stopped hyping Bryan and started praising James Scott? You wouldn't be as popular a character without him. And the ingratitude you show to the Ejami fanbase is getting really old. You and the show would be nowhere without US!!!

Thanks for blogging Ali. I am so glad that Sami is back in Salem to liven up the place, it seems a bit boring without Sami Brady in town to keep everyone on their toes. Loving Safe it reminds me of soapy romances from the 80's and you and Galen have great chemistry. Thanks for all your hard work, you make Days of our lives must see television for me.

Ali It was nice to read your blog that Megan is well [Ben sounds too cute] and that you guys are having fun at work, remembering the old storylines and comparing dramas! It was particularly nice that you made a nice comment about Ari who is your arch enemy on screen only and Galen and the crew, and how it was a great experience working with Bryan again because of your long history working in storyline together. I have to say that I love watching Safe - you and Galen have nailed the funny, cute and sexy romance that has give me a and many Safe fans a lot of lol moments. Thank you for being a part of that and lighting up our screens.

hi ali, its great to hear from you. Its great you enjoying spending time with your kids Ben and Megan. I miss Sami.

Alison,
Thanks for posting. I always love reading your blogs. Congratulations, again, on the birth of your daughter. I am so glad to have you back on screen in Salem, especially in scenes with Bryan. You and Bryan have such a special chemistry that cannot be duplicated or surpassed. You guys are just phenomenal together! I can't stop smiling, or tear my eyes away from the screen when LUMI are on! I am very much looking forward to more, and I'm REALLY hoping that Lucas and Sami get back together because all of their other "pairings" just pale in comparison.
I'm a huge Sami fan, and I think Sami is best when she is with Lucas.
Keep up the great work!
Lisa

Hey Ali!
Nice to hear that your enjoying being a mom of 2. Even more wonderful hearing how Ben is such a great big brother! :)

Seeing you and Bryan working together again was wonderful. You miss him..and I miss the two of you working together!:) Hope to see more of the two of you together in the future. Love Will being back!!! Keep up the great work!

Ali,
Just wanted to say that I really enjoyed seeing you onscreen with Bry again. You two have such an amazing chemistry! I am also loving the new Will!

Ali,
I'm so glad to have Sami AND Will back in Salem! I am really looking forward to seeing more Lumily scenes. You and Bryan have the best chemistry, and I have really missed watching the two of you sparkle together!

I'm also glad to read that Megan is doing so well for you. You sure are an amazing and inspirational woman! Glad to have you back, and keep up the good work!
Rhiannon

Thanks for posting Ali and Congratulations on your new baby girl! Glad to hear you are all adjusting so well. Dylan is doing a great job as the new Will – excellent casting! Loved, loved, loved the scenes with Sami, Lucas and Will this week, Absolutely Awesome!!! Sami and Lucas are both always at their best when they are with each other…. because that is when they are both their truest selves. You and Bryan always manage to rock every scene together and it was amazing to see how naturally Dylan just fit right in as Will in those very first scenes together. The thing that always makes Lumi so believable is the non-verbal communication between the two, all of the little looks and subtle messages that come across in every performance that you and Bryan deliver together. I loved the way that Sami immediately went into protective mode, changing the subject so Will wouldn’t know about Lucas drinking again, but what really sold it was the way that Sami moved in closer to Lucas as she was saying it. Those are the little details that bring Sami to life – Thank You. Another big Thank You to all responsible for getting the history between Lumi accurate! It was such a delight to watch Lumi flow from those scenes immediately into such a natural parenting team, both showing so much concern and respect for the other (they really have grown up over the past 16 years together … well in some ways at least). The performance from the three of you depicted such a real, believable family -- flawed yet deeply and eternally devoted to one another.

LOL! Is it mean if I laugh?

I'm glad you're back in Salem and its hilarious that Sami Brady has three love interests! Carrie and Bell has nothing on her! Ha!

I will always love Lucas and Sami, but maybe I'm not as passionate as others.

I'm sorry to say I'm not buying this Sami running scared from Stephano stuff. The Sami I remembered went toe to toe with Victor, who is just as bad as Stephano, and Kate and didn't blink when they got in her face.

The same Sami that tossed Franco out on a scaffoled when she thought he had cheated.

Sami doesn't run scared and she doesn't need a hero. She's her own savior.

I love the old Phillip, but I do miss Kyle2. Its nice to know people still hang out together even after their time on the show end.

Hi Ali!!
I'm glad that things are going so well for you, and I am glad that you were glad to do scenes with Bryan again because I was sure glad to watch them!! I have missed LUMI so much!! I really hope they are on their way back together. I really liked the new Will, too, I think he did a great job so far, and I am excited for more!! I miss LUMI so much, it was so nice to see you and Bryan together again. It reminded me of why I am a LUMI fan, and why I miss you guys together so much. Good luck with the podcast with Kyle, and the new baby, and everything. Thanks for blogging.

Ahh!! Ali! To be continued... that is so cruel! I love you and Biggest Loser!
PS- It is so exciting about your new baby and her big brother are getting along so well (knocks on wood). Megany-Wegany... love it!

Congratulations Alison and family on the arrival of Megan....and glad to hear that Ben is loving her and his nickname for her is definitely precious...Glad i found this website...Take Care...
keep up the good work on Days..

Congrats on your new baby girl Megan Hope. And welcome back to Salem it's just not quite the same without you.Okay now I like Rafe he is really a sweetheart but.....HE IS NOT EJ!! You and EJ make the show for me you two are awesome together. EJAMI forever!!! They can find someone else for Rafe how about Nicole!! Please pass this along to the writers. Anyway your Awesome and I'm so glad your back. Longtime EJAMI Fan!!!!

I'm so glad your back Ali and that baby Megan is doing well. :D Yay to Kyle doing a new podcast. I laughed and laughed when I listened to the water one. He wouldn't let you smell the water. I wonder why? Maybe because one of them was booze. lmao His site cracks me up. I love the new Will. He so looks like Sami's son. I'm just so happy to have Sami back on my tv. I missed her!

Ali, congrats on your new baby Megan. Im so glad to hear how well you are getting along! You amaze me with all that you can do!

I just want to say how happy I am that you are back on from your short leave and back filming with the Bryan again. I have totally missed you guys together with the family. Its so fun to see Dylan joining the family too.

Keep up the good work and take of yourself! We love you!
Haley

Haha thanks for blogging Ali.
Good to see you doing more scenes with Bryan. You two are great. I love it when Sami and Lucas go at each other. I'm also loving Sami and Rafe... really interested in seeing where that goes. And if at all possible, tell Dena to write in more Sami and Nicole scenes. I swear you and Ari are the funniest women on that show. Congratulations on your beautiful new baby.

Love Rafe and Sami together!!! It's my whole reason for watching anymore. Hopefully this is the end of EJami for good!

"Megany-Wegany" - P R E C I O U S !!! So glad you're totally back on the canvas - altho' I must say - you're looking mighty gorgeous hosting "Biggest Loser" in that green turtleneck! You rock!

Hey Ali, first I would like to say congrats on your new baby girl and I'm really glad to hear that you and Megan are doing well. I'm glad to finally see you in scenes with Bryan. I love watching you two together and I'm liking the new Will too. You and Galen are amazing together. I've been re-watching all the SAFE scenes over and over. You two have amazing chemistry and your the main reason I even watch. Can't wait to see what happens with Sami and Rafe. Well, my question is: Do you still like pickles?

CONGRATS to u Ali and your family on the new arrival of your baby girl Megan. I'm glad that she's easy goin' and high five to big bro Ben for being just adorable. I like the new Will, can't wait to see what happens next with him. I'm happy to see Sami back in town, but I have to admit though, I am huge SAFE FAN, u and Galen are the reason I tune in for Days. I think that Lumi should be BFF, Bryan is awesome, I think they will always care & love one another, but not in love, they need someone who will love them completely for who they are & not scheme, lie etc. to eachother. James is also terrific, as for Ejami, they have chemistry like Lumi, but not I fallin in love can't wait to see you but don't want you to leave need you more than want you kind of love like the old days of DOOL. Though there are moments from both Ejami & Lumi that are unforgetable, I am a SAFETTE 4 LIFE, and can't wait to see more from the show and from the SAFE BOARDS that support SAFE. This is just my opinion no disrespect to anyone, but congrats again and thank you for keeping up the wonderful work in all you do Ali. THANK YOU!!! SAFE - 4 - EVER!!!!!!!

Aw, Ben sounds like such a sweet big brother, “MeganyWegany” is an adorable nickname. It was so great to finally have some Lumi scenes again. New Will is the perfect Lumi blend in appearance and Dylan really seems like a talented young actor. Lumi is by far the most unique and enjoyable Supercouple ever!!! And those scenes were a terrific example of why. Even in such simple, domestic scenes, they just spark! The trip down memory lane was fun too. Speaking of history – Sydney & Grace – two excellent “Lumi” names. My podcast question is: Sami has 5 sibs offscreen, which one would you most like to see return to Salem and why?
- Kazz

Hi Ali, it is so sweet of you to take time to post with everything else you do. The Lumi scenes were so much fun to see and Will is back, Yea! Thank you for always giving the Top Notch, A+ performances that have made Sami Brady such a complex and inexplicably lovable character for nearly two decades now!!

Hi Ali,
I am soo glad that you are back at work. I absolutely love the show and have been watching since you were on. I was a teen so I feel like we have grown up together. I just wanted to say that I love that fact that Sami has finally found a real man. Rafe is the guy that I have always wish that Sami could have. He is loving and supportive of her. He is caring and brings out the best in Sami because he understands her. I think that you and Galen are doing a great job of portraying a great love story.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I bet you are enjoying Megan every minute you can. Its so good to see you back. I also wanted to day I love SAFE and can't wait to see what is in store for these two. You should check out the boards and see just how much people support this couple. A great love story in the making!!

Congratulations on the new addition to the family. I don't see how you do it. I was so excited to hear that you were coming back to Days so fast but I was thinking in the back of my mind is this woman crazy. You look great!!!

Though I love your interactions with all of the actors I must admit I was very excited seeing you work with James again. I just can't wait until Sami let's Nicole have it for all the mean things she has done. That will be must see tv if you ask me LOL. You two guys are great at fighting.

Keep up the great work and thank you for taking the time to blog.

Hi Ali, love you! Longtime days fan here.(25 years) and the only reason i have kept watching lately is because of you. congrats on the baby! you look beautiful, as always! And to Kyle, my brother ran into you at the superbowl in arizona last year, are you working in radio now? My question(s): about the Biggest Loser, Jillian, what is her deal, is she really that intense all the time? and how do you handle that? okay ...onto DAYS.....Who the hell is doing the hair there? and did everyone get new choppers all of a sudden???? did they do a whitening sweep on the teeth. QUESTION ABOUT DAYS if you could only take one castmate on a desert island who would it be and why? what is your favorite piece on the set? peace and love to you and your family~!

Hi Ali, I'm sooooooo glad you and Bry are sharing scenes again. The scene in the hospital proved to me (again) and to everyone how special Lumi are and how they are truly meant for each other. I know it will take time, but Lucas and Sami will find their way back to each permanently and raise all FOUR of their children together without outside impositions. You and Bry rock. LUMI FOREVER!!!!!!!!!

It's so great to have Sami back in Salem! I can't believe you took so little time off! Congratulations on the baby and your work on BL has been wonderful. I just love how much you obviously care about the contestants. EJ & Sami are as hot as ever and the Rafe obstacle is looking like it will be a fun one. I think I'm actually going to enjoy a Sami triangle for a change. I wanted to give a big kudos to the show for finally taking a stand and moving away from Lumi. I really believe they ran their course and there is nothing more to tell in that story and I think Sami lying to Lucas about losing the baby was sort of a final statement that Sami doesn't even see Lucas as a close friend that she wants to confide in anymore. They will be great co-parents to Will and Allie and I do enjoy their friend vibe but beyond that, the romantic element of their story is done. I believe that this is a good decision by TPTB and I look forward to the EJami/Rafe triangle! I have not enjoyed the show nearly as much since Sami left Salem so it has felt so good to have her back interacting with more than just Rafe. Galen is doing a great job and James is fantastic as always and you and he just click on screen like no other characters. Thanks for all you do Ali - don't forget to rest though! :)

Hi! I've been looking back at some of the old story lines and they crack me up! OMG! Will is sooooo CUTE!! Lol! So I have a question. Maybe I already mentioned this in another comment, but I want to know if y'all can do a Biggest Loser Teens. I'm 15 and I watch BL (it's awesome!) and I would love to see more teens on the show. I'm glad there were a few teens this season, but I think there should be a whole season with teens. Adults aren't the only over weight people in America. In fact, I looked this up on Google, 90% of over weight people in America are teens. Which is really sad to know. I would really like to see teens on the show. Thanks and lots of hugs!

I love the new Will, I think he is doing great so far. I think he fits in with you and Bryan really well. He looks like he could be a child of Lumi, and I hope they are going to make him act more like one. I loved the Lumi scenes and can't wait for more. There is nothing like Lumi to glue me to my screen. Take Care.

Hi Alison!!! It's sooooo wonderful to have you back in full force over at DOOL!!!! I have to say that I just hated the witness protection story line. It was a waste of your talents Alison!!! But I understand why it was done but I still hated the story!!! I have to say the past week since Sami returned to Salem have been amazing to watch!!! Sami & EJ have rocked the screen IMO!!!! And this is the reason I'm excited to be able to watch DOOL again. I'm excited to see where the story goes from here!!! But I'll admit that I want my Ejami and the sooner the better for me!!!
Watched BL last night and just about died when the screen went black without us knowing if the pound total was reached or not!!! This season of BL has been absolutely amazing to watch!!! I have no idea whom will be the winner but am enjoying the race to the finish line!!!!
I'm glad to hear that things are going well with Megan and her sleeping habits. And just love, love, love that Ben is enjoying being the big brother. I'll knock on wood for you that it keeps up this way for you Alison!!!
Thanks for the update and take care of yourself!!! Your fan, Cory

Ali! Great blog! Now that you are back I finally have a reason to watch again. I love you in scenes with all of "your" men, Ejami especially. My question, are you the only actress on a soap to ever have 3 love interests at once?? I think you may be. You rock Ali! Congrats on your baby!

Hi Ali, I know that the actors have to play what the writers write, but could you please pass it along to Dena and Kenny that the fans want LUMI make together? I loved your scenes last week with Bryan and Dylan. The nuWill is a perfect combo looks wise of Sami and Lucas. I can't wait for more scenes of you, Bry and Dylan, especially the ones where Sami and Lucas try to deny they still love each other. Remember that the fate that Sami believes in is when a bratty teenager gets to take a military brat to a high school dance, and he ends up being the love of her life.
Love always,
Elizabeth

hey alison ,
when biggester losser final april? alison phone cell. please write me

Oh, Ali! It's *so* good to have Sami back in Salem! I've loved every show since her triumphant knock on the Dimera door on Feb 25th! It's nice to see that while she has *matured*, she hasn't lost her feistiness. LOL I'm an EJAMI fan through and through and, as such, I've really enjoyed watching her interaction with EJ...ALL of it...even her going toe to toe with him about his double standards and his interference in her "personal" life. I loved that Rafe said the things *he* did to EJ (someone had to) and, as a result, stirred up the green eyed monster. It's been a long time in coming! That said, I can still see the magic that is EJAMI and look forward to the day, at long last, when they are BOTH on the same page at the same time and admit to their love for each other. Welcome home, Samantha Gene Brady!!!

I have watched Days for 24 years and I think you are a terrific actress and I'm so happy Megan was born strong and healthy. I know I missed you on the show. Sorry, I don't think Lumi or Safe are good couples. I love the way you and Ej have had all this chemistry from day 1 and love Ejami. I'm also hoping you and Brady will act more like brother and sister...you guys weren't always very close. But most of all I wanted to welcome you back to Days.
Go Ejami!!!!!!

ALI!!!

Your back!! So happy about that! I've missed you and Samantha Gene in Salem! I like the nuWill, but not to take away from the OLD Will, as well, because he was so funny and I liked him too (the old Will) very much! He was unique and different and a breath of fresh air with his comedic timing on the show! He so kept me laughing!

It's so good to hear about Megan and Ben! Too Cute! I'm glad they're so good for their super busy and on the go mom! Lol! Ali, could you please pass along to the writers how much we LOVE, LOVE, LOVE EJAMI!!! Oh goodness! You two are amazing together! Love the whole Brady-DiMera love story and family! You two belong together and are definitely exciting to watch! It's like you can't breath when EJ & Sami are on screen together! You & James are just so incredibly wonderful and talented together, that you just stop breathing watching the two of you, your chemistry, your passion, and your story together! And definitely the strong and deep desire the two of you have for one another! It's absolutely amazing! And I'm so happy for you Ali! That you finally get to have a strong and deep love story, be apart of a powerful family like the DiMeras, and that you & James are the #1 couple of Daytime! That's got to be amazing for you! And you deserve to be apart of something so great! And how great is it to have such a fantastic and very charming and handsome actor, like James, right there by your side, and as your love interest! That's got to be wonderful Ali! And I'm glad that the show has FINALLY found you a man and a male character, like James and EJ, that is on your level! EJ & Sami are soul-mates and belong together! That's already perfectly clear! And you & James are doing terrific with that! GO EJAMI!

And also Ali, let the writers know what a wonderful job they're doing with the all the EJAMI scenes so far since your return! It's been great! You two are so in love and so meant to be! And that's wonderful to see Sami move away and move on from her abusive relationship with Lucas and on to a man that actually loves her and appreciates her like EJ does, and a man that has interest in her and protected her & EJ's baby, like Rafe.

Ohhh, and Ali, I've been a Sami fan FOREVER! I love my Samantha Gene! And I don't EVER want to see her back with that abusive, loser, jerk Lucas! He never knows how to treat her right Ali! All he does is abuse her, neglect her, and abandon her! And he's been doing it for years and STILL does it Ali! He's so awful to Sami! Sami deserves much better than Lucas! Your character that I love so much, and that is my favorite character, definitely doesn't deserve a man like him in her life any longer! I mean, Ali...did you see that in the script and when you all shot the scenes, how that abusive jerk Lucas STILL blammed your character, Sami, for EVERYTHING! I mean seriously, Ali, where does that loser get off blaming Sami for anything. He's such a jerk!
I love Samantha Brady! And I don't EVER Ali...EVER, EVER want to see her with that abusive, controlling, and neglecting loser jerk Lucas again! I'm so glad that they are FINALLY moving your character away from him and onto men that actually love Sami and appreciate her, and don't take her for granted! Sami deserves to move on and be happy and she deserves waayyy better than Lucas! So, I'm so glad that the show, has decided to move your character away from that! IT'S ABOUT TIME ALI!! lol!! Really, much better for Sami to be away from him! And she definitely has two MUCH better and totally hotter options now with EJ and Rafe. EJ's the love of her life, her soulmate, the man of her dreams, literally, and he's her everything, he's her rock, like your character said! And like Sami said, that EJ was a much better father to the children and husband to her than Lucas EVER was! Ali, you nailed that scene when you did that girl! It was amazing! I was like "Tell it like it is Samantha Gene! GO SAMI!! You tell that jerk!" I loved when Sami said how better EJ was as a husband and as a father, than Lucas. Ali that scene was so good and you did great with it! And your character was finally, telling the complete truth and letting Lucas have it, like he so likes to dish it out in her face! Ali remember, when he kept yelling in Sami's face, how much better Carrie was and how she was the better sister and everyone loved her and hated you...remember that Ali! That jerk! I was so glad Sami threw it in his face how much better EJ was! That was great! Alison, you know Sami, should have told him that EJ was much better in bed too! Because everyone knows he is! LOL! That would have been extra great!

You know something Ali, as much as I love Sami! She is my favorite, but even with that...I would much rather have Sami go completely insane, be sent away, loose everything, be killed off, or just be alone FOREVER & EVER & FOREVER & EVER than to be with that abusive loser jerk Lucas ever again, who has done nothing but treat her absolutely horribly for years! I hate the way Lucas treats Sami! Good Gosh, I'm soooo incredibly glad that Sami's done with him! Much better for my girl Samantha Brady!; You know Ali, he does nothing but abandon, neglect, and blames Sami CONSTANTLY and STILL does! Sami is much better off alone, with EJ, with Rafe...with anyone else but NOT with Lucas! Sami just doesn't deserve that kind of punishment and disaster any longer! I love Sami, I'm like the biggest Sami fan!! And I definitely don't want to see her with Lucas EVER again! I'm soooo beyond happy, estatic, glad that that disaster is over for my Samantha Gene Brady! She does not deserve that kind of treatment or that punishment of being with someone like Lucas! I'm ALL for EJ and Rafe for her though! They treat and appreciate her much better than Lucas EVER has! And EJ actually loves my Samantha Gene! So, Ali I'm all for EJ and Rafe! GO EJ and Rafe! I LOOOOVVVEE EJAMI!!!! EJ & Sami belong together! So, you and James keep up the GREAT and FANTASTIC work that you both are doing! Because you two are just amazing together!

I so can't wait until EJ & Sami are back together and with their children Johnny, baby Ali, their Brand New Baby Girl, and EJ's step-son Will! You all make a great family Ali! So keep up the GREAT EJAMI work! WE LOVE YOU & Have stuck by you from the very beginning! We never betrayed you for any other actress or her character and we haven't jumped from ship to ship! We've just stayed VERY loyal to you and James and just loved our Alison Sweeney and Samantha Brady & EJAMI ONLY!! WE LOVE YOU & APPRECIATE YOU SO VERY MUCH Alison!
--LOVING EJAMI ALL OVER AGAIN!!! EJAMI & EJAMI FAMILY FOREVER!! The New DiMera Family Rocks!~Go Samantha Gene Brady-DiMera & EJ DiMera!--
-Kelsie-

I am loving safe. you two are so cut together. keep up the amazing work. Ive been watching this show for a while...i am only 17 so it hasn't been too long but Sami has always been my favorite character and you are a great actress. go safe!

Congratulations on your sweet little girl, Ali. It's great to have you back. Love the new Will. Finally, a Lumi scene! I can't wait to see more LUMI interaction. I missed them soooo much!

Hi Alison,
Congratulations on all of your success. I am so happy to have Sami back in Salem. I was especially thrilled to see LUMI scenes! I LOVE LOVE LOVE LUMI!!! LUMI are my all-time favorite SUPERCOUPLE, and I have missed them sooooo much!! I can't wait for more LUMI!! LUMI FOREVER!!

I think Galen G. (Rafe) brings a great deal of value and attention to Days (one of the polls where a person compares two photos of Days actors, Galen received a whopping 85% compared to the other guys 15% in the same category), and fear he will be squeezed out due to prior popularity of Sami and Lucas and/or Sami and EJ but I watched him on Passions where he portrayed Luis and liked him there and when I met him at the Days event he was EXTREMELY nice to me. Since Suzanne Rogers - very unfortunately - did not appear at the event, he became my first choice of actor to see on the'morning' panel of actors. Thankfully Drake H(John) was on the afternoon panel of actors we had the choice to see or I may have never interacted with Galen and I was actually 'starstruck' and this surprised me because I have met MANY famous people (Pierce Brosnan at the video store in Malibu for example at the height of his 007 career), so it is MY hope that it will be....

RAFE AND SAMI FOREVER!!!!!!!!

Its kinda sad saying that only having 1 job with a 6 week old is going to allow you some time for a much needed rest. As a mom of 2 that works and volunteers, I barely have time to breathe and that has nothing on what you must put yourself through. Enjoy what reprieve you can before jumping into a new season of TBL.

Speaking of TBL7, this season's cast is awesome. After the frustration of watching the (producer picked) drama of last season, it has been refreshing to see a cast that puts each other first. Mikey's generosity with his prize was outstanding and his father's pride was heart warming. Last thing on this topic is I have to mention my amusement that now both of my teenage sons have declared you 'hot'.

Regarding DOOL, I had a chance to sit in and watch a couple of episodes last week and particularly enjoyed the LUMI scenes. A fan of this couple from their inception, it was great seeing them banter over Lucas's drinking. More over, it was encouraging to see how these characters, even when 'apart' still care so much for each other. They have staying power and so do I. I'm patient and I'll continue to wait until they can be together again.

Rest when you can Ali. You work really hard for everyone, but you have to look after yourself. Cheers!

Awww it's so cute that Ben wants to hold his baby sister. Congrats on Megan, she sounds like a sweetheart and I bet she's gorgeous already. Loving the Lumi stuff on Days right now. I really enjoyed the scenes where you guys brought up Lumi's long history of fighting over Will just before Dylan made his entrance. He's a great Will and I'm liking him already. I love seeing you with the twins, Sydney and Grace too. Very cute, you and Bryan are both so good with any of the kids on Days whether it's Lucas or Sami's nieces/nephews/cousins, or their own kids. Keep up the good work and I look forward to more Lumi/Lumily scenes. And I definitely look forward to the day when I get to see Lumi juggling to raise Will, Allie, Johnny, Grace and Sydney together. I can only imagine the mischief the Lumi babies will get into ;)

Ali congrats on the new baby megan, you are amazing i heard you only took one week off before going back to bl and two week before coming back to dool. i am glad that megan is being such a good baby and that big bro ben is also doing great. you are doing an amazing job on dool i am so glad that sami is back in salem, well i hope that she is back to get her man ej and get her baby back from the kidnapper, but i know it will be a houseful but i hope that since sami has bond with grace that she get to keep her good health and good luck to ya ali

Hey Ali.
I'm so happy for you and your children. Ben seems like a great big brother for Megan. The nicknames and everything - so sweet.
When it comes to Days, we all love to see you back onscreen. Days without Sami was like a fish without water. lol...you get my point.
New Will seems good, and fun to see you interact with both Bryan and James again, but I have to say I LOVE Sami and Rafe. There is a continously growing fanbase for "Safe", and seeing your and Galen's chemistry is like....magic!!!
I was kinda into the EJami thing for a while, and I never thought I would like Sami as much with anyone else as with Brandon...but I was wrong there SAFE all the way now ;)
I think you have a great chemistry with whoever you're put with though, so keep up the good work.
Wish you and your family all the best!!

aaawww, i remember all the good old storylines. the death row, everything. personally, i loved carly being buried alive and vivian talking to her through a walkie talkie. or kristen-susan-and all the lookalikes stories.
i've always sympathized with sami, as crazy as she could be at times, it's just cuz she would do anything for the people she loves, how she always is so devoted to her childeren. your character is the most interesting one.
rafe and sami are hopefully the new supercouple. i know it's a lot of ejami and lumi fans, but i adore rami.

Hi Alsion i am a huge sami/rafe fan you guys sizzle on screen it's about time that sami finally gets a good man and she has that with rafe can you please tell the writers how much i enjoy you and rafe and want them to be the endgame sami needs some happiness she doesn't need to be with a man who raped her that insane. i want safe all the way you and Galen looked really good together on screen.

Alie i love you and rafe on screen yoy guys have supercouple potential you and rafe really get eachother and i wanna see sami happy can you please tell the producer that we love the safe scene and defently want you guys to be endgame and the safe fanbase has grown everydays safe the endgame They're supercouple material because of how they are together...

what up Alsion i have to say that i think Ej/Nicole fit better than ejami that a good think because sami has changed she not on ej level any more i like this sami alot she's growing up rafe has made a beter person in sami i klove the scene between you two i want you guys togetehr so bad i no it's fiction character but us safe fans has all said that if Ejami reunited we are tuning out on days i hate to do that but i want my safe Ej is crazy and dark he raped sami that not

Yes. Sami and Rafe are the reason I'm hooked again. I cannot wait to watch Days again. I haven't felt that way in a long time.

Hi Ali, thanks for blogging again! Congratulations on your new baby girl. I can't wait to see pics if you decide to share them. I'm sure Megan is gorgeous. It's so good to see you back in Salem again. Although I loved your scenes with Galen in the safe house. You two are great together. I'm also loving your scenes with Bryan and Dylan. You're doing a great job on the show, I love it. I love Lumi! I hope there will be lots more Lumi scenes in the future. You and Bryan have the best onscreen chemistry.

Hey ali, I have always liked you on the show, your one of my favs. I am not fond of nicole or ej,. Never have been. I liked all the older ones, not saying your old, just the regulars.
Anyway, i have always liked your charcter, I do hope that sami ends up with rafe, that would be so cool.
And you with your new baby, am amazed at all you do and still working two jobs even while you were pregnant. your awesome.
Have a great week.

Ah, yeah the dragging up of the old storylines gave me a good laugh. A better laugh is when I read this because I remember when Galen was executed on Passions! I must say that I am still holding out for Sami and EJ to get back together so I'm not one of Rafe's biggest fans. But I'm so excited to have finally read that you've had the baby. I'm so behind (obviously) but I keep watching both shows and I'm like "what does her stomach look like?!". Congratulations on Megan, she sounds cute!

Ali I am a mother or three children and It is utterly amazing that you are back to work this soon after having your preciously little girl. Best to you, Dave, Ben and Megan. And thanks for your dedication to your work and to your fans for coming back so soon. I know it has to be tough juggling it all. I can see we have alot of responses about fanbases and such. I just want to say I think you are wonderful with each and everyone one of these actors. Your scenes with Ari are fantastic, with Galen they are soft and comforting, with Bryan they are fun and familar and with James they are electrifying. Your talent is amazing to project all of these layers and have so much chemistry with your cast mates. Keep up the good work it is a pleasure watching you! Good luck with TBL too! Wonderful show!

congratulations Ali on your lovely family. You are looking wonderful, wow one would never guess you had a baby in the last few months. Are are awesome!
I am loving the EJAMI scenes. It's nice to see the magic is still there. And what a lucky lady Sami is to also have Rafe in her life. EJ and Rafe YUM the jealousy between these two just jumped off the screen.
Welcome back and I hope you have lots of fun with your upcoming scenes.
Chris

Welcome back Ali...congrats on the new baby..its nice to rehash "old days",but I look forward to "new days",with Ej!!Ali you and James share a very special chemistry,that only turns up once in awhile...PR and KA have and so do you and James,embrace it!!We in the audience want to see it!!Take care

Hi Alsion i gald that you doing well but i have to say that out of all the guys that sami has been with Rafe is the Guy for sami he treats her with respect and you and rafe are so much alike you have hot chem and the safe fanbase has gotten even more bigger i wanna see sami happy and rafe it the guy for you you guys get eachother can you please tell the writers that i am enjoy safe all the way and want more safe scene

OK, being new to days...I really didn't know the history of Sami and EJ. That said, I did some digging and found out that EJ raped Sami??? Now how anyone can say that EJ is the man Sami should be with is beyond me. From what I have seen of EJ...he is a controlling, pompous jerk. Now Rafe, on the other hand, seems to be a very caring person. Willing to put his life/job on the line for Sami...getting stabbed, not once but twice ...all in the course of protecting her. The way EJ yelled at Nichole the other day...while his daughter lay there sleeping...just shows what a jerk the guy is. I hope the writers will continue to portray Rafe as a caring guy...one that will put EJ in his place when needed!! Glad to see Rafe isn't afraid of Stephano or the DiMeras. Go SAFE!! To me there is no comparison between Rafe and EJ...except that maybe Rafe seems to know how to use hair products - EJ needs a shave and shampoo!!

Hi Ali! Love your blog! I think you are doing a fabulous job on Days. I love your scenes with Galen. You two are so cute together. I hope you have lots more scenes with Bryan. You two are the best. And it always looks like you have so much fun together. I really hope LUMI is reunited. Me and all my family and friends are waiting anxiously for a LUMI reunion so I am posting on behalf of them. Go Lumi!!!
Annie

HI Ali,
I'm really glad to hear you are doing well. It's amazing to think back on all those old story lines. I started watching Days right about when you joined the cast. I would tape them to watch after school like you did. You are about three years older with me, so I feel like I grew up with your character and a little with you. Anyways, thanks for sharing all of this with the fans. Take good care of yourself!!

Ali!!! I'm so happy your family is doing so good I wish you all the happiness in the world :)
Or else, I must say when they at first put Sami in witness protection program, I was bummed we were not going to see the Sami Ej interaction for a while. But then after watching Sami with Rafe these months I'm totally in love with this new couple. EJ and Sami are exciting when they fight, when there's jealousy and electricity. Lucas and Sami work the best when they are friends, that's the time they're joking around, no one is shouting, I love when Lucas is giving her advise. They have great chemistry as friends!! However Sami and Rafe!! I adore how much he cares about her, the chemistry is amazing, their goodbye, their reunion...everything! And so far it's complete honesty between them even though Sami doesn't know much about Rafe and his personal life.
Me and my friends, and I know a lot of other fans were so dissapointed when the "Safe" kiss was blocked by EJ's jealous face.
I really, truly hope the writers are not going to rush it, and that they're not using Rafe only as a thing to make EJ jealous. I hope things stay with Lucas and Sami like it's now.
And the old Days stories...I'm amazed how people keep getting hurt, told they're never going to be able to walk again, excecuted, spend half of their life at hospital and still almost get healthier day by day. One must love Days for all that!! ;)
Now it would be kind of excited...since most people in Days are related to half of the characters in some way anyway, if Rafe was for instance a DiMera too, the adopted half-brother of EJ...come on, it's Days, he has to have a family too....
Anywaym, wish you all the best Alison! Hope to see more of you in Days now as BL is taking a break..!
Sonya

ongratulations Ali to you and your family on welcoming a little girl to the fold! Glad you're back and Days and for the first time in years - Days is fun to watch. You and Galen are doing a great job and dare I say it? What's that coming down the road? It's the return of the Super-Couple!!! Wahoo - it's about time Days wrote couples who actually have a relationship before they hit the sack! Rafe is strong, committed, responsible, gentle, loving and a VERY good friend to Sami. Sounds like husband material to me!! Keep up the great work!!

Ali i have to ay out of all the guy's that sami has been with there is only 2 thati actually like her with brandon and now rafe. you and galen have hot chem you sizzle on screen the safe fanbase hos gotten so big i have to say the writers would be a fool to put sami back with a pompeous jerk like Ej i hate the Sami/ej interatction and when you guys are in scene i fast foward them i only want my safe fix and i hope to get a nother safe kiss with no ej in sight

Alsion iam safe fan you guys rocked on screen you have a hot spicy sexy chem no to metion Galen is very atrractive he's better looking than all the men sami has every had. what with days latley it's like there no more romance it just lot of sleeping around but with sami and rafe that has changed i glad you guys are startingout as friends first then a romance sami has finally got her white knight i have to the writers would be stupid to put sami back with a Rapsit a guy who has rrible thigs to her over a nice guy like rafe it they screw up safe we safe fans are quitting days i do not want sami back with ej a guy who raped her that not love ej is more controlling than sami than love her

I like the new will. Your doing a great job. Your fans love you. Keep up the good work.

Ali it's is always great to hear from you. I am osrry I haven't written sooner. But I make mine short and sweet because the longer the letters the less they are read. I know.

I am so glad to see you back and it's amazing how Days worked it all in at the same time too.

Lumi Fan Forever!!

Ali, I am sick of you saying things like Sami’s “trying to get rid of EJ.” What have we seen lately in that storyline... Sami kiss EJ, have sex with EJ (and conceive another baby!), makeout with him in the hospital, whine about how EJ doesn’t want her, run away to a safehouse where she talked about and thought about EJ all the time even screaming in anger that Nicole had her claws in him. Then she comes back to Salem and hangs at the DiMera Mansion when Nicole told her Johnny wasn’t there. Hmm… wonder why this Sami who is so determined to “get rid of EJ” would do that? And, why would she invite EJ into the townhouse and offer him tea and play with the twins with him? Gosh, she’s really “trying to get rid of him!” You know I don’t care when you say negative things about EJ/Sami if they are true but this is not true and it really disappoints me to read stuff like that when it is so blatantly false. You need to change your tone when talking about EJ/Sami because you still act like this is 2007 when Sami was EJ’s victim. Well, forget it! Sami is not the victim anymore. She’s the one who is betraying EJ and she’s the one pining for him. Dreaming about being in bed with him and dreaming about marrying him is pining so stop acting like Sami’s so in love with _____ and EJ’s just this big mistake Sami made because if EJ’s a mistake then he’s one Sami enjoys making over and over again. She’s not trying to get rid of him!

hey alsion on days i glad that sami is trying to move on with her life and she finally has a good man that supports her.i hate Ej is more obessed with sami than in love with her he want to have the best of both worlds continue datinhey Alsion how are you i am a huge sami/rafe fan they have got me back hooked g nicole and butting in sami personal like he a contolling pupumos jerk raped, lied, manipulated and tricked his way into her life with his father's help and without it. I think the writers are on their way to turning EJ into an obssessive, possessive, controlling, and even abusive, verging on evil man. This is the kind of person Nicole is always attracted to. It's an interesting concept; but that will make him not a suitable match for Sami which i never thought he was i want sami/rafe only he the perfect guy for her i not lumi safe fan but i hope johhny turns out to be lucas and the baby also so that ej will have no ties in safe life ej doesn't dersves a to be a father he turing in to a sami stalker.

Hey Ali.
Happy for you that your kids are so healthy and adorable.
I agree with the person writing 10.23 AM, the 2 people I really loved Sami with are Brandon and Rafe, Rafe reminds me of Brandon, but it's even better, which I never expected to feel.
It's great to see you back in Days, I cannot miss a Days scene with Sami.

I wonder what you think about Sami's relationship with Rafe vs. EJ vs. Lucas?
Keep up the good work!!
-A.L-

Hey Ali.
glad that you family is well i'll keep this short rafe is the better man for sami i love the safe pairing and hope to see you guys in more scene and airtime and can't wait to get a safe kiss and hope safe is the edngame safe fan forever

I actually have a question...i have been a Days Fan for over 25 yrs...got hooked as a young girl in early days. Anyway,I have always been a huge fan of Sami. You are Awesome!!! My question is ~ where did they get the coat you wore on todays episode - March 10th '09 - a long Black coat, fur type trim on collar & cuffs & some kind of pattern on sleeves & sides??? I LOVE it & would love to find one similar.

Thank you in advance if you are able to pass along this info.

I'm So happy Sami is with Rafe he truly Love's her and you can Definitely See she Has Strong Feelings for him and that's So wonderful to see there's So much Chemistry between them, and they do I have to admit make a Cute Couple. She Literally Lit up Like a Christmas Tree when he came to the Apartment. :) i've never seen her so happy when she saw him. When she Kissed Rafe *was too short* there was Passion there and it was EJ WHO? loved it. Thank you Ali for Bringing playing sami she's always Been such a Joy to watch and Fun.. I wish you Luck and Love with your new Man *onscreen* Rafe Hernandez I can see this Becoming more then just Friendship i can see maybe Marriage in the Forecast for these two. Congratulations as well to the Newest addition to the Family... HUGS your Fan Laura

hey ali
i have to say I do seriously love you and "rafe" but i also want you an EJ to at least have a chance! i been waiting sooo long! i think maybe you should get with rafe and have a love affair on the side with EJ !! LOL that would be fantastic!.....(of course only because you hate nicole) good luck

hey Alison.
The Ejsami fans are sweating in the boots they are getting really nervous because they no the safe is popular and they are gainging more and more fans and alsion has been with days for a long time E/sami do not make the show just because they have a huge fanbase not everyone likes ej/sami together alot of peopel are turing to safe and i'm happy about that. sami doesn't need to be with a control freak and a ex rapsit ej/nicle are a better fit so anyways this is it. rafe is the best man for sami you guys get eachother and alsion you are such a good actress that any guy you are paired up with you make it intersting so i so happpy that sami and rafe are getting closer can't wait to see what in store for my safe and you can you tell the writers how much us safe fans are enjoying watchi8ng you guys on screen and want you guys to be the endgame safe fanbase is so popular now everyday there a new fan i would like for sami to be happy get her baby back and still have grcae with rafe in her life safe fan us safe fans have stated that if sami goes back to Scum Ej we not watching any more safe all the way.

Hi Ali! I know I have commented once before on this post, but I have a question. Who is the guy who plays Will and how old is he? He is soooooo cute! Lol! In my opinion, he is the best looking guy on Days. Please oh please oh please answer me! Thanks and have a super-duper day!

GREAT new hairstyle you are sporting (March 11 Days episode) - you look better than ever, and YOU HAD BETTER GET WITH RAFE BECAUSE THIS SHOW NEEDS SOME SPICING UP AND YOU TWO ARE THE ONES TO DO IT - you rarely see a bad comment about Rafe so everyone give him a chance to breathe some much needed new life into this show!

Hey Alsion i love the new hair style i just wanna say i love you and rafe and want you guys to be the endgame can you tell the writers how much i'm enjoying safe and want them to be the endgame. it's time for some new romance with new people rafe is the guy for sami.

SAFE made me hooked on Days again. Seriously, the Sami-Rafe relationship is the best thing that ever happened in Days!!!

Hi Ali. Thanks for blogging. Congratulations on baby Megan, and your son Ben seems amazing with her!
I've been watching Days forever it feels like...since I was about 10. I followed the whole Sami - Austin - Brandon - Lucas - EJ story and still I haven't seen a man that's as perfect for Sami as Rafe is. T
Nowadays that's the only relationship in Days where they're not rushing it and putting them in bed together already. But instead show us fans what we want to see: a man for sami that: cares about her, would sacrify for her, is risking his own ife to keep her safe, that sees through her and whatever she's up to, that can hande her, and even when she's most upset he can make her smile, that's affectionate with her, and they are so funny together.
You and Galen really have a great chemistry, all the scenes so far have been well written and even better acted out. It's good to see you more often on Days and I hope you'll still be able to be a lot on screen even if you have a new cute little baby that you have to take care of, cuz Sami is by far the most interesting character on Days.
I think Sami and Rafe saved the ratings for sure!

you and rafe are perfect together so hot i can't wait to see more scene with you two and can't wait for that safe kiss coming up best pair on days for a long time

Ali you look great since you've been back. Loving the scenes you have with Lucas and Will, but there needs to be more. I'm missing the Good Ole Days. I love how your character is FINALLY seeing EJ for the creep he is. Keep up the good work mama.

hi ali. happy to hear ben is such a great big brother to his little sister. and good to see that megan is doing good to.
i've been a fan of yours for many years and want to say that you're doin a fantastic job as sami.
your story in days has been exciting lately.
i love sami and rafe together and how she has become a happier and more relaxed person with him, she smiles a lot.
and you and galen make one of the soap operas hottest couples!!
hope safe will end up together!

Sami/Rafe- What can you say about them...they beam with chemistry...they have it all and they have only shared one kiss...They have build-up, chemistry, romance, passion, intense emotion...they are simply BLISSFUL!!! They are truly the BEST thing on this show and the way a great couple should start and be...Daniel/Chloe claiming to be in love with one another is seriously a joke they are NOTHING compared to Sami/Rafe...none of these people can compare with Sami/Rafe period!!!
like Sami better when she is not miserable. Which brings me to the point that it seems like all EJ ever did was make Sami miserable. I think Rafe would be much better for her, but I hope she doesn't blow it and that Rafe does not get hurt.
i love you guys can you tell the writers i want sami and rafe to be endgame

How is it working with Galen?
did you guys know each other well before?
(I know Passions and Days always worked close together).

I love the show right now, it's just fantastic! Fantastic is a funny word to use, considering I'm a fan (haha), but Days is just getting better and better in my opinion. I think it's sad they let Dierdre and Drake go but the new additions of Will and Mia are great. What I can't wait to see is how everything plays out with the babies. Congrats on your own new baby and your son sounds adorable!

Hi, I've never posted one of these before but feel the need to possibly overstep a boundary. And for that I apolgize. While watching Days lately I have noticed that the beautiful little baby that plays Grace may have a problem that should be addressed by a pediatrician. Her nose appears orange and that is most likely a result of eating too many orange foods such as carrots, sweet pot., etc. It is called carotenemia, and a pediatrician should be consulted. There is also another more serious medical reason for the pigment of her nose to turn orange. That is the reason I feel compelled to write this. Again I apologize for intruding but as a mother of two I cannot sit back and enjoy the show without speaking out. I love all of the babies on the show and wish them a happy and healthy life..... Ali I am hopeful you can pass this along to her parents, thank you and Good luck with your new baby and God Bless your family. Congratulations!

HI Ali
It is good seeing you back, BUT I like it when you and Luce are together. and there are some other people in Michigan that would like to see you both back together and to find out that your twice kids are both Luce, NOT EJ!

Why would the show kill baby Grace off. That is so sad... It breaks my heart to even watch .. but I did ... God this hurts so bad!

Ali,
I want to say that you are the bomb, I pray that you never have to ever experience the lost of a child in real life. However this story with Grace you handled this as though it was real, I have been on a heck of a emotional roller coaster, my heart is breaking into for Sami and Rafe of whom I think you belong with. I have been a days fan going on 50 years, and plan to never stop watching the one soap I desire to watch more thin any thing on T.V., However I am very upset at where the writers are going with this story line, I guess it would not upset me so much if I knew nothing about the switch by Nichole and what this is doing to you. Granted you two are not the best of friends, but I would never go as far as Nichole did even with my worst enemy. Ali you are the bomb, and I feel you deserve a special award for your acting through this story line, don't blow it don't lose Rafe he is the one you need to be with, a brand new story line for a new life for Sami, you deserve it.
