Days of Our Lives: Abe and Lexie Get Shrinked
By Jamey Giddens on April 26, 2008
One of Days of Our Lives longest married couples Abe and Lexie Carver are taking a decidely realistic step for soaps-especially Days-by opting to go into couples therapy. Kudos to Days scribe Dena Higley for dusting off the talented James Reynold and Renee Jones and giving them something to do besides play BFF to everyone else in Salem.
While I am loving Tamara Braun as the fantastically-kookie Ava, Days fans know the show really didn't have to look outside itself to find a perfectly suitable bad girl. Lexie's turn to her DiMera darkside a few year's back was one of the best storylines in recent Days history.
After years of having been a boring talk-to, Jones ignted the screeen as Lexie schemed and connived to keep her precious Isaac away from his bio parents Bo and Hope, who happened to be her best friends. Lexie's stunts would have even impressed her adopted sister Kristen Blake. And then there was her classic rivalry with Sami. Let's hope this therapy storyline will bring some of the pop and sizzle back into Abe and Lexie's storyline. It wouldn't hurt to bring back Mama Celeste either. Tanya Boyd and James Reynolds oozed with chemistry when Celeste helped Abe, make that Abraham, care for Theo while Lex was missing in action. How about a putting this talented trio into a triangle?

I hope they give them something juicy to do. I would love a triangle with Celeste also.

I always thought that Celeste was better suited for Abe. He's too old for Lexie, but they have been together for so long, they kinda look right together. I think that Lexie & Daniel would be hot.

Let me break this down if I can, Muze:
Stefano thought that Hope was carrying his baby when she was pregnant with Zack, so he decided to switch the baby with the fetus that Marlo, Rolf's niece, was carrying. The babies were switched and Zack was given to Lexie, Stefano's daughter, & Abe to raise and named Isaac Theo Carver. Some kind of way Marlo ended up dead because I think that she wanted her baby back. Bo & Hope named their son, John Thomas (JT). The reason why Stefano thought that Hope was carrying his child is because when he programmed her to be Princess Gina, they slept together, she also slept with John. Bo soon found out that JT was John's or so they thought. Glen, Marlo's baby daddy soon came to Salem wanting his kid. Lexie soon found out that the baby she had was Hope's. The baby switch came to light, but not the fact that the Carvers had the other baby. Glen got JT and left town, leaving Bo & Hope crushed. Lexie feared that she would lose Isaac, so she schemed to keep them from finding out, but they eventually did. After Isaac was returned to his real mother, He was named Beauregard Zachary Brady, nick named Zack. It also came to light that Bo was the boy's bio father. I think I got it right. LOL.

Renee Jones has been under-utilized for most of her time at DAYS (except when she went over to the darkside) I absolutely LOVE Lexie whether she's good, bad or somewhere in the middle. Jones is one of the most beautiful and talented (and underrated) actresses on daytime and there's so much potential w/ her character. THE BEST, ITA Lexie and Daniel would be totally HOT!!!

I love Renee Jones too. I was so pissed when they fired her and so excited when she came back. When I first started watching DAYS I thought Abe was Lexi's Dad. I really wish she had a younger hotter love interest. I like Abe don't get me wrong but I want Lexi to have more fun then just being in the hospital all the time. And does she have a little boy now??

I wanted Abe with Nicole's mother, Fay. He just weighs Lexie down.

THEBEST you read my mind! Lexie needs someone else in her life imo. Fay's perfect for Abe.
