Should Chad Embrace His Darker DiMera Side on Days of Our Lives (DOOL)?

On Days Of Our Lives (DOOL), there’s no such thing as an all-good DiMera. Everybody turns a little dark eventually. Even poor Theo got sucked into Kate’s plot. So what chance does Chad have?

Sure, he’s golden now. He’s got Abigail (Marci Miller) back, they have their precious baby Thomas, and Chad (Billy Flynn) is pretending to run DiMera like the upstanding businessman he is. Everything is on the up and up. (Forget that every penny he earns honestly is still fruit of the poisoned tree that is the original DiMera fortune.)

That’s… kind of boring. Should Chad be crossing over to the dark side and embracing his inner DiMera? Almost 7,000 viewers weighed in.

Stay the Course
Chad is perfect the way he is now, insist 79% of you. He’s not too good, he’s not too bad, he’s just right.

You like him a shade of gray, not a villain, but not a complete pushover, either. Chad can take care of his family… without hurting someone else’s… much.

Chad! I Am Your Father!
Stefano (Joseph Mascolo) was a villain for the ages, and Chad should be following in his footsteps, urge 12% of the audience. Andre (Thaao Penghlis) just isn’t filling Stefano’s shoes the way that he should, which means Chad is the only one left to step up. And he’d better do it before fans die of boredom!

Not Enough
Chad should be even nicer, a minority 8% of you encourage. He’s already got too much Stefano in him. Abigail and Thomas deserve a husband and father they can be proud of, someone who deserves to have an ornament on the Horton Christmas tree.

If Chad wants to be the man he truly can be, he’d be well advised to ditch the DiMera side of him completely.
