October 30, 2014 marked the last regular appearance of Alison Sweeney as Sami Brady for the foreseeable future. Below I summarize the character's write off along with any other general thoughts I had about the character.
This blog is mainly about soaps, though it will sometimes veer into other topics. The main purpose is to provide a space for when board discussion isn't enough as sometimes my thoughts and feelings take on a life of their own. Even if some of the shows I enjoy have been cancelled, I will continue to post about them. They may take away the shows, but they can't destroy the love.
