The Young and the Restless still has a loyal fan following, despite the many cast and plot changes over the years. It has kept viewers glued to their TV screens for several decades now, and shows no signs of weakening. Now in its 45th season, the series still packs a punch.
The Young and the Restless is an American television soap opera that is set in a fictional town called Genoa City in Wisconsin and was originally focused on two core families: the wealthy Brooks family and the working class Foster family.
After several recasts and departures in the early 1980s, all the original characters, except Katherine Chancellor and Jill Foster, were written out and replaced with new core families: the Abbotts and the Williamses. Later on, new families like the Newmans, the Winters, and the Baldwin-Fishers were introduced.
One particular feud between Jill Abbott and Katherine Chancellor has continued throughout the series’ long length and is the longest rivalry on any American soap opera.
Currently, The Young and the Restless season 45 is being aired, and the series remains as popular as ever. The Young and the Restless season 45, episode 27 will be telecast on Friday, October 6, 2017, and will take this long-running story into its next phase.

Without their knowledge, Zack is spying on them, and he is upset that Sharon and Scott are creating trouble.
Realization Sets In
