Keep It Going: Which Surprise Pair Should Continue on Days of our Lives?

It was a week of unexpected hook-ups on Days of our Lives, as couples we thought were long done – or non-starters – hit the sheets. We heard from almost 2,000 fans about which ones had long-term potential, and which one you’d like to see more!

Days of our Lives — Get Your Jabi In

Jake (Brandon Barash) and Gabi (Camila Banus) have had sex before, but she was still in love with her late husband – and Jake’s lookalike twin, Stefan – while he, most recently, had been involved with Kate (Lauren Koslow).

However, earlier this week the pair couldn’t stay away from each other, and so went at it hot and heavy, complete with admissions of never having been able to forget the other. Then Kate showed up. But, you know what? A winning 58% of you just don’t care. Kate is the past. Gabi and Jake are the future. This is the coupling you’ve been waiting for!

Back To the Beginning

They were each other’s first true loves, and 26% of the audience is giddy to learn that Sami (Alison Sweeney) cheated on EJ with Lucas (Bryan Dattilo). It’s extremely appropriate, considering how many times Sami cheated on Lucas with EJ. (And, no, we’re not counting the time EJ blackmailed Sami into sleeping with him while Lucas’s life hung in the balance.) These two always drift back to each other. Which is exactly where they belong from now on.

The Ex X

Only 16% had anything nice to say about Nicole (Arianne Zucker) and Xander (Paul Telfer), who were both drunk and on the rebound. The next morning, he was giddy, and she was nauseated.

Nicole claimed she was disgusted and it meant nothing and she loved her husband and, eww, Xander is yucky. Does that sound like a bit too much protesting to you? Methinks so, too. Days of our Lives (DOOL) airs weekdays on NBC. Check your local listings for airtimes.
