Though I've complained about her earlier, I'm getting more and more sick of Olivia on YOUNG AND RESTLESS to the point where I'm literally yelling at the screen for her to shut up.

I understand that soaps depend on advertising to survive. Heck, we wouldn't even have the name "soap opera" if they weren't originally sponsored by certain products.

Poor Billy on YOUNG AND RESTLESS. It seems that no matter what he does, he's angering a family member. Jill's upset with him for helping Jack with the Jabot takeover.

I was impressed with the scenes that aired on today's YOUNG AND RESTLESS where Phyllis confessed to Nick that she caught him kissing Sharon in Paris, and Jack and Sharon informed Noah that they were no longer together.

I'm not usually a big fan of business storylines, but the Abbott's takeover of Jabot on Y&R was riveting. Jill was shocked when Gloria stated that she was going to be Jabot's new CEO, but then Billy stepped in and announced that he was taking over.

Okay, this may be a morbid thing to say, but Katherine's funeral on YOUNG AND RESTLESS was one of the best big soap "events" I've seen in a while.

I don't usually like holiday-themed episodes, but Y&R's Halloween show actually made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. At Nick and Phyllis's place, they, along with J.T. and Victoria chatted about which dead person they'd want to encounter and Victoria said that she'd like to make peace with Sabrina.

I can't say I'm that interested in the Y&R storyline regarding River and Gloria's past, and whether or not River was involved in a bombing that took place over 40 years ago.

I'm enjoying the friendship scenes between DAYS's Sami and Lucas. Over the years, they've been scheming partners, enemies, husband and wife and parents, and have a lot of painful history behind them.

I never thought I'd say this, but I'm now actually starting to feel badly for YOUNG AND RESTLESS's Adam. No, he's not the nicest guy and he didn't handle taking over Newman Enterprises well at all, but getting blacklisted from every business by the Newmans seems to be a bit harsh.
