Lifetime Review: 'Saving My Daughter'
Fifteen years ago, Joanna Kennedy (Alicia Leigh Willis) experienced a mother's worst nightmare when her 3-year-old daughter Chloe was kidnapped during a shopping trip. Even all these years later, with the now 18-year-old Chloe (Emily Skinner) safe at home and her abductor in prison, Joanna is still haunted by the event. So when she learns that Chloe's kidnapper Brittany Maxwell (Laurie Fortier) is being released, she's naturally alarmed--even more so when she returns home the same night to find Chloe missing.
Trevor WellsPublished 3 years ago in GeeksBelated film reviews: Waiting For Forever
Spoiler alert: This is going to be a more positive review. Hurray! As I often do, I jumped into 2010's rom-com Waiting For Forever with a two-line premise I found on Google and, this time around, a wider knowledge of the cast. I usually don't base my decisions to watch films on who stars in them, but I recognised Rachel Bilson on the poster and, as a The O.C and Hart Of Dixie fan, I was excited to see her in something else. See, I love Rachel Bilson. She is most famously known for her portrayal of Summer Roberts in The O.C, the quintessential 00s girl. Summer was never as dumb as she looked on the surface, always a fashion icon of the times, popular at school but with a heart of gold, just the right amount of sassy, a little bit celeb-obsessed, and all-around adorable. Through Summer, Rachel Bilson encapsulated the 00s at their best. Then, she found herself with the main role in Hart Of Dixie, the one of Zoe Hart, a fast-talking big city doctor who ends up having to move to Bluebell, the tiniest of towns in Alabama. Technically, I started watching it because of her, but then again, Hart Of Dixie has everything I could possibly want from a TV show: a little bit of cheese and a lot of wholesomeness, outstanding fashion, utterly lovable characters, small-town America, pick-up trucks, and just enough drama, sass, and plaid shirts to keep me entertained. I really wish Rachel Bilson had a similar career trajectory as Jennifer Aniston: personifying the core aesthetic of a decade in an iconic TV show, and moving on to be the queen of romantic comedies we deserved.

The Young and the Restless has a couple of female characters that they do not seem to know what to do with. Spoiler alerts are teasing that the dup might be about to make a drastic change in their lives. What is being suggested will not come as a big surprise to eagle eyed viewers who have been paying attention and expecting this alleged storyline to eventually play out between Lola and Elena.
