Top 10 Hits and Misses

10. MISS: Lily and Holden talk (Y&R). We were really looking forward to Lily (Christel Khalil) and Holden (Nathan Owens) interacting. They’re both in a dejected place. Lily had seen Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) and Cane (Billy Flynn) mixing it up. Meanwhile, Claire (Hayley Erin) chose herself over anything serious with Holden. Unfortunately, their discussion focused on Holden learning that Cane’s company is in trouble. This was an opportunity for us to see if they could generate any sparks. Unfortunately, no walls came down between the two.

9. HIT: Dani and Andre’s vows (BTG). Dani (Karla Mosley) and Andre’s Los Angeles honeymoon provided quality Dandre goodness, which included them realizing they were two puzzle pieces that just fit. And they bought rings to reflect that. After they were delivered, Dani and Andre (Sean Freeman) proceeded to recite new vows that were as serious as their Vegas wedding was un-serious. Their vows were touching, loving, and beautiful. With so many couples on BTG experiencing intense drama, upheaval, and conflict, it was refreshing to see these two be the show’s romantic oasis. And they exchanged “I Love Yous,” which was sweet.

8. MISS: Rachel does a quick 180 on Sarah. Too quick (DAYS). Whoa, whiplash here. Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) and Rachel (Alice Halsey) had such a good relationship…until they didn’t. Rachel spotted Brady (Eric Martsolf) and Sarah getting too close for her comfort, and she immediately switched to Scorched Earth Rachel. She dug deep and found out about Sarah raising her and kidnapping her. And about Sarah’s pistachio allergy. Cut to Rachel sneakily poisoning Sarah. Will this happen with every woman Brady gets close to? Nothing has even happened between Brady and Sarah. They just hugged.

7. HIT: The search for Luna (B&B). The rhythm of Thursday’s episode was decidedly different from the rest of the week. Daytime soaps, especially these days, are so talky. Characters don’t do much more than stand or sit and dialogue about everything, so when there’s action going on, we love it. The search party that set out after Luna (Lisa Yamada) got the characters moving. We appreciated that.6. MISS: Lisa Yamada exits the show (B&B). Deputy Chief Baker (Dan Martin) insisted that Luna was dead. He also confirmed that she had lost the baby before any of this happened. But we still didn’t believe him until Lisa Yamada’s exit was announced. The Emmy-winner has been such a great addition to the show, and while this version of Luna had been written into a corner, we have high hopes that down the road, Yamada could return. A long-lost twin, anyone?

5. HIT: History Revisited (DAYS). The Peacock show revisited history in two different and interesting ways. Gabi helped give her daughter, Ari (Marissa Reyes), a different perspective on Sophia’s plight by finally telling her the details of her own teen pregnancy. Cherie Jimenez nailed these scenes, which resulted in Ari visiting Sophia (Rachel Boyd) with Aaron (Louis Tomeo), a great development. As alluded to earlier in this column, Rachel googled Sarah and learned about being switched at birth. That Sarah (and Greg Vaughan’s Eric) raised her for the better part of a year. Then they found out the truth. Sarah couldn’t handle it and kidnapped her and took her to Paris. So happy that Rachel knows the truth.

4. MISS: Dante blaming Gio again (GH). Here we are again. Although at least this time, Gio (Giovanni Mazza) did have some culpability, unlike that beach party where Rocco (Finn Carr) experienced alcohol poisoning. Gio and Emma (Braedyn Bruner) enlisted the teens to help them in their mission to bring down Professor Dalton (Daniel Goddard). However, they did call the mission off temporarily, but the kids went ahead and broke into the lab on their own. A guilty Gio owned up to what he did, and Dante didn’t care. The anger unleashed was understandable — the man is scared for Rocco. But his words were unfair to Gio. And right when it looked like Gio and Dante could have something special, they suddenly took ten steps back. UGH.
