With her thirtieth anniversary with the show fast approaching (September 7, 2024), The Young and the Restless‘ Sharon Case is currently embroiled in a front-burner story that sees her unmedicated, bi-polar alter-ego confounded by visions of her long-deceased daughter and recently slain tormentor.
Sharon Case On Current Tale
In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, Case gushed, “I really love [the plot], everybody here [at Y&R] loves it, so I think it’ll go over really well. It really is just the beginning. The audience hasn’t seen too much at this point, and we still have a lot to come.”
Though as much in the dark as the audience, the actress is very much up for the ride. “I didn’t even know about all of it until I read it in a script one afternoon and thought, ‘Oh, this is happening. Wow, great!’ I mean, this is going to be a big thing. This is not a short storyline. This is one of our bigger ones and the writing is so great and entertaining. There are so many layers to it. Everybody’s going to love this.”
On Linden Ashby’s encore as “Ghost Cameron”: Obviously, I was very excited because I just love working with him and he fits in so well here. This is the third storyline I’ve done with him; there was the initial one a long time ago [2003-04], then the more recent [one] where Sharon stabbed him [2023], and now this story. I’m glad they keep finding things for him. Linden is amazing.
On why Sharon isn’t seeking professional help: “I think because she’s interested in seeing things through on her own and [seeing] where this goes. She thinks that this is going to lead her to some final understanding that she needs to explore and find out what she hasn’t already found in life or with her therapy or with her meds. There’s some salvation she feels could be there.”
And, finally, a very special message to her fans: “I just want to thank them for their love and support and their loyalty to not only Sharon but to the show for all of these years and for rooting me on. That keeps me going. I feel like I have somebody to play for; I have an audience who wants to see what I’m going to do, and that creates just this great relationship where we’re a duo, me and them.
“And that’s why all of this works, that energy works; it’s because of them and what we both do on either of our sides of the screen. I couldn’t thank them enough for their support.”
