Alison Sweeney (Sami, DAYS) will share hosting duties with Nick Cannon on NBC’s MACY’S FOURTH OF JULY FIREWORKS SPECTACULAR on Sunday night at 9 p.m. EST.

EJ starts to feel the net closing in …And so he should, cos cornered Anna will blackmail the governor into giving Nicole a pardon, which means she will be back on the streets of Salem! Things get even more tangled when Rafe and Sami find out Anna set the pardon in motion. Sami wants blood! Rafe seems to think EJ and Anna have a secret. EJ scrambles to do damage control! Need more? Click here for Day’s Cafe spoilers for the next two week!

Arianne Zuker returns to Days of Our Lives this week as Nicole Dimera after the birth of daughter Isabella and maternity leave. Look for Nicole to resurface on March 11.

Trouble is brewing in Salem this week after Rafe realizes that Sami and EJ have been keeping him out of the loop and Sami realizes that she cannot trust Rafe. After the two come to these realizations, Rafe will move out. It looks like Sami and EJ fans might be getting what they have wanted all along….. Except that EJ is behind this Sydney debacle. EJ won’t be in the clear for long. Rafe smells a stinky fish….

Entertainment Weekly’s Michael Ausiello reports that Days of our Lives star and The Biggest Loser host Alison Sweeney will guest star on Mercy in March.

No offense to the cutie that formerly played Sami’s teen son Will on Days, but Dylan Patton looks more like Sami.

We haven’t done a Hot Chick of the Week feature in a while because soaps have been dormant in the diva department. That changed for us this week on Days, when Sami and Nicole finally came face to face to deal with the baby switch debacle. Allison Sweeney rocked her scenes, bringing raw emotion to every line. The tears brimming in her eyes were real and made her scenes with Ari Zucker just that much more intense. We know we are running it into the ground, but that double bitch slap Sami served up to Nicole was H-O-T! We hope Allison Sweeney doesn’t receive the Lucci treatment when it comes to Emmy noms next year….

We are not sure who decided to breathe so much life into Days all of a sudden, but we are sure that we love it! The baby switch reveal was one of the best in daytime history. Allison Sweeney brought it like only she can as Sami confronted Nicole about her devious machinations. Nicole denied all until her anger got the best of her and she stated that she would never hand Sydney over, no matter what. Sami had all she could take, and bitch slapped Nicole across the face. A stunned Nicole could only stand there and take it as Sami hauled off and bitch slapped her again. Nicole was eventually arrested and almost all of Salem has turned against her. Next week, Nicole will pull the ultimate heist and steal baby Sydney under everyone’s noses. So, this is getting GOOD. As if the show needed more excitement, enter Carly (in the form of Crystal Chappelle) and Vivian, and the humor factor is out of this world. More good news? Lucas is finally coming home from rehab! Look for Bryan Dattillo to start airing again on December 3.

We hope that Allison Sweeney is not overlooked when Emmy time rolls around. We’re just saying…..What do you think about Days lately? Leave us a comment below and let us know! Thanks!
