Are you seeing the sparks? Does this couple have chemistry? What is their potential?
On a scale of 1 to 10 where 10 is on fire and 1 is ice cold, what do you think and why?

I can't stand Dario so I gave them a 1. Not sure if it's the actor, the character or both. I don't like him being shoved down our throats. Whatever happened to the days of letting a character be in scenes with lots of people and seeing who they click with? I don't want a Dario/Melanie/Brady triangle! Yuck. I feel bad for Brady or whoever gets stuck as the 3rd part of that triangle mess. Rafe2 I have a job for you!

I give them a 3. I still am not fond of the actor's style, or the way Mel and Dimbo are being forced together so quickly, but there seems to be a tiny (very tiny) bit of chemistry between them. Thus the 3.

After watching this weeks scenes with Melanie/Dario, I have to admit that, IMO, there is a spark between them. There is something there, so I say let's see where it goes. I just don't to see Brady and Melanie together and I firmly believe that they are better off as friends. Like I've said before, this story needs a chance to unfold.

Yep a 3 is about right... If only there was some appeal to this actor then it would go higher. I saw Mel's appeal to Phil & Nathan (yes, I thought Nathan was cute & he was a dr.) but this one seems to be only because it is being forced. She has better chemistry with Brady but there I only want a friendship....

I gave them a 1 on the Heat-o-Meter for ice cold. I'm willing to give Melanie and Dario a chance, but I think the producers got it way wrong introducing him the way they did. It didn't endear him to viewers to have an angry thief burst on the scene, good intentions or not. Plus, pairing him with Melanie who is just coming off of two relationships that were popular with various fan bases, seems like a big mistake. She needn't be thrust into a new relationship so quickly. There are lots of people for her to interact with. It doesn't have to be a love interest.
I posted this elsewhere but it bears repeating. This is from Soap Opera Digest:
Thumbs Down: Sudden Siblings (April 12th issue)
Since Rafe was introduced in 2008, the Hernandez clan has been slowly expanding -- with little success. Arianna’s poor characterization was a bust and Gabi exists to engage in a snoozy G-rated romance with Will. So to fill the void of exiting Mark Hapka (Nathan) and Jay Kenneth Johnson (Philip), enter Dario. In a curious attempt to make him click with the audience, the show colored Dario with one annoying emotion for the first few weeks: anger.
He and Melanie took an instant dislike to each other, which can only mean we’ll have to endure a romance between them. Not the best introduction.

I gave them a 3. They are slllllloowwwly started to show some warmth to each other, but I still don't give a rat's patoootie for Dario. Nothing against the actor or anything like that, I just don't like the character. I have nothing invested in him, don't want Melanie with the guy, we've never heard of the Hernandez little bro till recent, so meh. I just don't feel ANY sparks between the two. I know the general feeling on this, but I would much rather see Mel with Brady. Not yet...She needs time to heal mentally... Most of us would be locked away in a mental ward had we - 1. Been shot. 2. Attempted to be killed by your mom's crazy in-law. 3. Husband has affair w/ Dad's wife. 4. Lose Baby. ect.... I think the girl needs a serious break from men. Think, a sweet romance with Brady would be a lot hotter than Boring Dario.  |

I think that it would be inappropriate there to be any kind of romance between Brady and Melanie. They need to remain friends and friends period. He should be with either Nicole, Taylor, or Chloe. Melanie is simply way too immature for him. Besides which, who's to say, that DARIO can't help her heal. I have a feeling that once he knows what happened,. he will turn out to be her strongest ally EVER. Keep in mind Dario still doesn't know about Carly, Chloe/Parker, or the fact that she was pregnant and miscarried. Hopefully, Brady and Dario will have a chat about the fair Miss Melanie or better yet, maybe Melanie will tell him herself.

I can't stand Dildo and how forced their attraction seems. It doesn't seem natural at all. I like Melanie but not the Melanie of late. She needs to do some major growing up if she wants to remain someone I can be invested in. The ick factor on this one is way up there for me and I think it is mostly related to my dislike of Dumbutt.

Melanie seems to be acting younger IMO since her divorce and telling Nathan goodbye. I am not sure if that's deliberate on the writers part. Maybe it's the new story with Dario and hunting for Ari's killer or maybe it's just me. I still don't care for the character of Dario. He was pushed at us too fast. Melanie barely had a few days to deal with everything that she has just been through when he shows up.

Dario is just too forced, that is a fact! I just don't like him, don't care, don't see any depth to the critter. While I understand why lot of people don't want Brady and Melanie together, I still would be all for it. It would be a switch from all the divas he's been with in the past. I think light hearted and fun to be with Melanie would be awesome for Brady! ( Fun to be with Mel is the one who used to make snappy comments and show some umph when she was pushed into a corner. )

I'm still convinced that Nicole, Chloe or Taylor are a much better fit for Brady romantically. I firmly believe that he doesn't need to be with Melanie who still needs to grow up. Brady would be better off with folks his own age and not people in the early 20s. He should be battling EJ for Nicole orTaylor's affections and not be reduced to battling a young man in his early 20s for Melanie. She is simply way too young for him.
I also believe that Melanie and Dario have potential to be good for each other. They simply need more time to get to know each other better. There is definitely a spark there. Also, it is clear that Dario does indeed have feelings for Melanie. I also think that it takes alot longer than 1 1/2 months for any new character to become fully developed. Therefore, I think it's right to give this individual more time. However, if for some reason, things don't change, Days could simply decide to ask Mark Hapka/Dr. Nathan Horton back.
Melanie and Brady are much better suited as good friends and nothing more. In closing a Melanie/Brady pairing is simply not necessarily since there is a far more appropriate solution to this issue.

LOL this is a joke post right?
And when you add Brady to this mess I just want to spew. It is like a teenager vs a dirty old man. And yes I know Brady is supposed to be about 30...but to me EM doesn't look it. And his chemistry with MB is brotherly to the nth degree. And Dario...ugh...did they chem test this guy with her or did they just give him the job because he was cheap and not Mark Hapka?
