It’s Only My Opinion For The Soap Week Ending October 11

Disney/Bahareh Ritter

Reunited And It Feels So Good: GH's Elizabeth sees her ex, Lucky, once again.

Feel-good moments between OG couples give me the feels, and I know I’m not alone.

GH is crossing a lot of former lovers lately, to great effect. Lucky’s return gave us a sweet scene at Kelly’s-now-Bobbie’s Diner (complete with flashbacks!), where he and Liz first met and spent time while dating as teens.

Lucky: “Thank you for everything. I have a good feeling about all this.”

Liz: “So do I.”

“Everything” included not vilifying him for abandoning their son, Aiden, and not trashing him to Aiden, either. Liz facilitated a kumbaya between father and son which gave Lucky the chance to apologize for being a deadbeat dad (my words, not his) and Aiden the chance to come out to his father . Win/win.

Liz has her pick of the splitters now with returned exes Lucky, Jason and Ric all circling. Laid-back Jason is in the mix (their heart-to-heart at the pool last summer looked promising) and Lucky’s taking his time, but Ric is all-out courting Liz. Any one of those dudes works for me — head nurses need love, too!

Ric is also sharing scenes with Alexis, and Alexis is crossing with Sonny re: their messed-up daughter Kristina. Elsewhere in ex-land, Sonny sees Carly all the time. Their playful banter takes us right back to the duo’s heyday.

Sonny ( making espresso on new coffeemaker ) : “I can make you one of these in 25 seconds.”

Carly: “I’ll feel like I’m cheating on your old machine.”

Sonny: “You don’t know what you’re missing.”

Carly ( sarcastic ) : “One more mystery I’ll have to live with.”

Their feel-good moments are more for show since Carly is Sonny’s alibi for the murder of John Cates, but deep down there’s something there.

Carly: “I’m on your side. I always will be.”

Sonny: “Why do you think I came to you for an alibi?”

Carly: “Why do you think I gave you one?”

Check! Other former lovers back together include Maxie and Spinelli, while Robert and Holly are being teased.

Robert: “About time you showed up.”

Holly: “Have you been waiting for me?”

Robert: “All my life.”

Holly ( touched ) : “Oh Robert…”

Robert: “Because you’re always late.”

Checkmate! Robert and Diane aren’t played together enough for this to be a triangle but Holly is a fun interruption — especially with Mac and Felicia arguing over her, too. That’s a lot of popular OGs in one story.

B&B’s Ridge and Taylor count as OGs on paper, but it’s hard to buy them on-screen with all the recasts. B&B is making a solid effort with the story of Taylor’s heart trouble, though, as Ridge hides her condition from Brooke.

Brooke: “I’m not jealous. I’m wary. Taylor loves you so much.”

Ridge: “I love you so much.”

This could be a triangle if it’s done right. Personally, I’d have Ridge focus on Taylor while Brooke becomes envious of all the attention Bill is lavishing on his ex-wife Katie.

Bill ( to Katie ) : “Think about the life we could have. You, me and Will. Let’s give Will his family again.”

Brooke likes being the center of attention and would love a family dinner with Ridge and their ignored son RJ. Making Brooke jealous of her sister would be such a full-circle moment, especially since she’s the reason Bill and Katie broke up in the first place.

My jury’s out on insta-couple Carter and Hope , but I did appreciate B&B cranking up Liam so Carter could feel awkward walking in on a “family moment” with Liam, Hope and Beth eating pizza. That’s another triangle possibility but Carter referring to himself and Hope as “two very hot people” was so cringe I’ll probably root for Liam.

And miss me with DAYS’ Chad falling for faux Abigail; it cheapens Chad and Abby’s entire relationship. How does he not realize this woman is a fake?

However, Kristen working her way back into Brady’s life has been interesting. Naturally she outlined her plan to Stefano’s portrait, recapping the action that Sarah made a false statement to EJ against Brady. That prompted a sister/brother confab.

EJ: “You don’t want Brady to pay for his crime because you still love him. He detests you.”

Kristen: “Brady does not detest me.”

That’s a ringing endorsement in the DiMera family.

Kristen: “It would break Rachel’s heart if her father goes to prison. All you want is for Brady to hurt because that hurts Eric. It’s not Brady’s fault Nicole left you!”

EJ: “No, but it is his fault that Sarah is crippled.”

Actually it’s Fiona’s fault. Kristen told Brady she loved him and promised she would get him out of prison. “No,” he ordered. My money’s on Kristen.

Feel-good moments between exes are scarce on Y&R these days. Victoria and Cole count as a success story but Nick and Sharon are more of a feel-sorry-for duo. He thinks she’s lost her marbles (she has) while their kids are perpetually worried.

Nick: “It’s time I spent more one-on-one time with Sharon.”

He asked her to dinner so he could probe her mental state, but Sharon thought it was a date and smiled like a school girl. Is there a doctor in the house?

Over at Glissade, Kyle bested his ex-lover Audra for the top job by stealing proprietary Jabot info from his mom’s computer. He thinks that makes him a good businessman but his new paramour doesn’t agree.

Kyle: “Audra thought she was better than me and now she’s unemployed. I’m taking a lot of satisfaction out of that.”

Claire: “Would this have anything to do with your romantic history? You two did sleep together.”

Kyle: “It was nothing. A fling.”

Claire: “I see a red flag when someone celebrates another’s misfortune.”

Bingo. Kyle’s parents got remarried but round two isn’t going well for them, either. Diane fired Kyle who now hates them and Jack is struggling not to blame his bride for that.

Diane: “I don’t think you have committed to the fact that I am not the same manipulative bitch I used to be.”

Perhaps because she is the same manipulative bitch she used to be — and that’s a roadblock for even the OG-est of couples.
