Have you checked out Alison Sweeney's (Sami, DAYS) retooled Web site (www.alisonsweeney.com) yet?

Is it YOUNG AND RESTLESS's intention to make me want to punch Billy in the face this week? Somehow, I'm thinkin' no. We're supposed to root for him as he worries about his pregnant bride, Victoria, and her tyrant of a father who's scheming against them. The problem...? This is also the week that Billy's nephew, Chance, was brutally cut down in a drug bust gone awry...and Billy's been about as affected by it as if he saw some stranger's death reported on the news.

Confession time: Now that I've seen it...? I think the end of the Reid/Luke arc might be one of ATWT's better wrap-up stories. And to don my trusty flame-retardant suit and espouse an even more unpopular opinion, I don't think the death of Reid is inherently homophobic. In fact, I'm not exactly certain how the term, defined as an "unreasoning fear of or antipathy toward homosexuals and homosexuality," applies to a show on which the importance of Luke Snyder as a legacy character has been stressed over the course of nearly five years. That he is loved, that he has fallen in love, has never been in question; never been treated with derision or scorn. That ATWT has had to deal with behind-the-scenes network constraints and vocal opposition from bigots is a separate issue from their actual narrative.

Allow me to interrupt the death spiral of AS THE WORLD TURNS in order to praise Van Hansis' turn as Luke in the demise of Dr. Reid Oliver.

Nancy's tribute on ATWT was such a tearjerker. Kudos to the show for
honoring portrayer Helen Wagner's memory by dedicating the episode to her.
How wonderful was it to see that amazing footage from the early days?

While Jana's decision to work for Delia and Reed's nursery school certainly made for an interesting plot point on Y&R, I can't help wondering what type of school — especially one that deals with very young children — doesn't do a thorough background check on its teachers.

Between his valiant rescue of Blair on today's ONE LIFE TO LIVE and his WHAT IF? video on http://sn.soapnet.go.com, it is a lucky day for a John McBain lover like myself. As Caleb and Livvie on PORT CHARLES, Michael Easton and Kelly Monaco (Sam, GENERAL HOSPITAL) were just the hottest thing since Pop Tarts, and in this new steamy Web clip, they prove they still have the chemistry that made them so popular on PC.

The 62nd Primetime Emmys was kind of like a horse race last night: It started out really strong, moved at a gallop, then faded badly in the final turn, before finishing with a favorite and a dark horse in the winner's circle.

While most of the characters in Steffy's orbit on BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL have willingly accepted that this very young woman with not that much business experience was just handed her mother's Forrester Creations shares, I'm glad that Thomas isn't just jumping on board. He's the older sibling and has had just as much experience as her at the company.

I've been trying my best to keep up with all the soaps this week and came up with a short list of what I'm loving. Here, in no particular order, is what held my attention the week of 8/16:
