Y&R's Sharon Case Interview: Is 2014 Finally The Year For SHICK?

By Michael Fairman

One of the juiciest storylines these days on the number one soap opera, The Young and the Restless involves a Cassie (Camryn Grimes) lookalike, Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon (Sharon Case) hitting the sheets again, and most haunting of all, Sharon getting electroshock therapy to help rid herself of the “visions” of deceased daughter Cassie, only as we know, poor Sharon is being gas-lighted by the lookalike and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden).  These two have been in collusion to try to obtain the secret Sharon is hiding!

And that secret is quite the whopper: Sharon switched the DNA test results and made it look as if Jack Abbott (Jack Abbott) is the biological father of Summer (Hunter King), when in fact, it is Nick’s!  And Phyllis took a frightful spill down a stairwell, after a confrontation with Sharon, upon figuring out the truth and has been in a coma for months!

On-Air On-Soaps caught up with Sharon Case to get her thoughts on the storyline twists, where Sharon is heading now, and if this is finally the year of Shick?  Will Sharon and Nick finally be reunited, only to have it all crumble when Nick learns the truth of what she did? Or, will there be a stunning plot twist that will save Sharon’s character from irreparable damage, when now it looks as if the tide has turned, and Sharon is now the victim of a horrific plot!  Here’s our candid conversation with Sharon about all the drama … and more!

What did you think of the concept of bringing back Camryn Grimes to the show this time, but now as a Cassie lookalike?

SHARON:  I have thought that many times that would be a great way to have her back, because we missed her.  We all sort of toiled with storyline ideas of how to bring her back.  We have all said over the past  … maybe, she is not dead? Maybe, she is in her twin sister? Maybe, she is a new character?  So, it’s all been great.

It looks like Y&R is finally getting away from Sharon being not crazy after all! That in fact, the “visions” of Cassie she has been seeing is actually a plot to gaslight Sharon.  What do you think of the twist?

SHARON:  I am happy about that twist.  It made sense that they had Sharon bipolar, but then it didn’t make sense, but now it makes sense that Sharon is not hallucinating.   I like that … and all the twists that have come after that, too.  The whole storyline turned out really great.  I love the way it twisted into making sense!

Recently, Nick and Sharon slept together.  Do you think it’s finally time for a Shick reunion moving forward?

SHARON:  I think it’s time for Nick and Sharon to get back together, and I am happy about that.  It’s been a long time to the point I didn’t think we should have waited any longer.  I love working with Joshua (Nick).

You recently landed a pre-nomination in the Outstanding Lead Actress category for this year’s Daytime Emmys.  What did you submit to get you into the next round?

SHARON:  I chose some scenes that I liked where Sharon confesses to Nick that she has gone off her meds, when indeed she has been hiding that from people for along time.  I just tell him the truth. She has a minor breakdown in it.  For a three or four minute reel, I thought that was a good section.

Melody Thomas Scott (Nikki) celebrated her 35th anniversary with Y&R.  You and Melody have had such fun scenes within the contentious relationship between Nikki and Sharon over the years!

SHARON:  Melody here for 35 years, Oh my God!  I know Melody feels the same way, but the Nikki and Sharon relationship and dynamic is one of our favorites to play.  It’s fun to do it, and it’s a great day of work and it’s wacky, and the fans seem to love it which is great.  I actually hope Nikki and Sharon will have more classic catfights soon!  This is also mine and Joshua’s 20th anniversaries with Y&R this year in August. We are already celebrating all year. It’s the Shick year, and that makes sense.

Do you want Sharon to finally be reset and return to being a heroine of the show like she once was?  Do you even think that is possible after all she has done?

SHARON:  I think that is what the fans want to see … her going back to being more of a heroine.  And even though that is not what she has been throughout her entire life, she needs to do that now for awhile.  People are ready to see that.

So, you are ready to see that now?  And I am just wondering  … how they are going to get out of what she did to Summer, Nick, Jack, and Phyllis?  How on earth are the writers going to get out of it to save Sharon’s character?

Courtesy/IMDB

SHARON:  Yes, I am! And oh, I know exactly how the writers get out of it, and it’s phenomenal!  Like the best thing ever! I could have never thought of it!  I loved it when I found out.  I am honest when I don’t like something, but I think everyone is going to like it!  I honestly can’t imagine anyone not liking how this all comes out and gets wrapped up. It’s so good! I love when there is a storyline and everyone out there has all these different guesses, and yet we have come up with the cleverest way to handle it.  It’s so fun to watch Twitter and watch all of the fans guesses!  I can’t tell anyone, because it’s so exciting!

Everyone is speculating that maybe, just maybe, years ago Sharon had twins, which answers the question of the identity of this Cassie lookalike! Thoughts?

SHARON:  Well, you know that could be, and that happens in soaps all the time!  It can happen to all good heroines! (Laughs)  It just happened to Nikki recently! Didn’t she just realize she had a long lost baby … who is now Dylan (Steve Burton)?

Everyone on your show seems to have a child they never knew about! (Laughs)

SHARON:  We have got Shick working together again, so who knows!

Many have felt that over time different regimes have disrespected the character of Sharon, by her out of character antics and behavior, although in more recent times, giving her bipolar disorder seemed to ease that some.  What do you think about where it’s heading now, and about some of the challenges of Sharon’s stories?

SHARON:  I think to have the family back together again would be amazing.  It really went far adrift from where we started, but some of the twists were very good and some of the storylines were real head-scratchers, where I had to go, “How am I going to play this?” However, some were just brilliant, and no matter what it was, it always a fun ride what went on with Sharon, whether you loved it, or you hated it.

So,  what do you think of Sharon’s current storyline where she has no idea that the Cassie lookalike is real and not a ghost?  Do you hope 2014 is the year that Shick finally gets back together and stays together?  How do you think Sharon will get out of her predicament with the lies she told Nick, Summer and Jack? Let us know your thoughts!

She was scratching her head thinking how am i going to make out with my grandpa!! 🙂 You did one for the team SC

Sharon Case is an amazing actress. I hope she wins the best actress lead role in the Daytime Emmy. Victor is such a nut. UGG HOW CAN SAY A WORD AFTER THE CRIMES HE HAS DONE. SHARON WENT TO JAIL FOR WHAT HE DID TO HER. SHARON SHOULD GET HIM BACK. I HOPE NICK WILL COME AND MAKE VICTOR PAY WITH EVERYTHING HE HAS, YOU DO NOT MESS WITH CASSIES MEMORY OR WITH HIS WOMEN SHARON. NIKKI I HOPE LEAVES VICTOR IF SHE HAS ANY SELF RESPECT

Team Sharon! I hope we have a wedding this summer for Schick with tons of flowers. Sharon looks so amazing in everything, She reminds me of Laura from GH. We need a summer magical Schick wedding. Thanks for this article. its been hard seeing this happen to Sharon what victor is doing to her

YAY I just knew Sharon never changed any test! It was only in her mind. I love Jack as Summers daughter. Phyllis is the kind of women who changed tests and Chelsea trick men. Sharon does not have a cruel bone in her body 😀 Love this interview!

“Sharon does not have a cruel bone in her body.”

I guess sleeping with your sister-in-law’s husband and sleeping with someone’s fiancee the night before their wedding does not count as cruel? 🙂

Sharon is the best character on and she is a sweet loving romantic women

I can not wait till VICTOR goes to jail or something! Great to hear from Sharon Case she is the best of the best.

Sharon is the light of my day on this show

I love Sharon but I am not happy what her character must be put through. Victor has a serious problem. he must lose all the family and business and be a broken man and be ignored. This was by far sick to be put through ETC all for the sick games of this crazy old man. What a evil selfish nut. Victor must stop this now. I hope Cassie lookalike comes to her and Nick and tells them everything. Nikki please divorce this man

I LOVE YOU SHARON!

Love you Sharon! Thanks for being a sport. You have been put thru so much and I hope you win in the end and Victor loses. A++ actress 😀

Sharon bravo. Way to go girl. Acting is top notch. She is always amazing. Wish she wasn’t always being torched though . Hang in there Sharon we love you and routing for you. You been to hell and back Team Schick or Shadam

I hope Sharon wins a Emmy again. i wanted her to win last year. her stories and acting has been so eppic

Sharon and Drucilla are my favorite characters still to date. wish we can get back Sharons best friend to deal with Victor. Sharon and Nick are the biggest super couple on the show. i do love Sharon and Adam but I guess that ship sailed. Nick should always be with Sharon.

Wil. Drucilla come back it

I want to see Nick forgive Sharon of keeping Summer from him and look at her in a new light as the Sharon he fell in love with and join together in marriage and have a happy family of coming together as one they have Maria and Faith and Noah and Summer Love conquers all.

I have always like the character, even when they had her act out of left field, Ms. Case always found a way to sell it to me as a viewer. Can’t wait to see how they get the character out of the corner they painted her in– I hope it as creative and clever as she says it is going to be. After all the let downs story wise lately it would be a treat to be surprised and impressed by the writing for a change

Sharon your the greatest! What an actress. She rocks.

Yes the year for Sharon finally! She deserves to be happy

LOVE SCHICK. Loved Adam with Sharon better but since he left and sadly they ruined him by making him have a baby with that Chelsea. We know Adam loves Sharon and never believed he would let her go. They went through so much together. The end of the Earth. But Schick is great also. Classic like always

Glad to see this story moving forward!

It’s moving forward by not reveling that Summer is really Nicks Daughter which is very irritating that they keep going around the story.

I think this is the year for Shick just love these two together!!!

Hate what Sharon had been through for so long. Can this grieving mother be happy now please!

Since Sharon was having hallucinations of seeing her dead daughter, I think she hallucinated switching the test results, and Jack really is Summer’s biological father. Was there a scene showing Sharon actually switching the test results? I don’t think there was.

SHARON we love you. I want her happy . It has to be Jack as the dad. She could of been switching hair from a hair brush anyone could of used. It never made sense Sharon was craxy. She has been my reason to watch thanks Ms. Case and for the story

How then did Phyllis hear Sharon in the graveyard & trip down the stairs?

Phyllis definitely heard Sharon in the graveyard. My theory is that Sharon hallucinated switching the test results, so she believes she did, but she really didn’t.

Sharon THINKS she did it. So when she was “confessing” to Cassie, that’s what Phyllis overheard.

That is possible. I never thought of it. Thanks!

Yes there was a scene that she switched the test results and she looked so nervous about it.

Sharon is my favorite character, I was so upset Adam went with Chelsea. I thought Chelsea should of been gone long ago. Adam loves the ground Sharon walked on so what happened. Sharon and Nick are history but when he ruined the marraige with Phyllis of all people. So disgusted. But since the damage is done so finished with Victor getting away with this shock treatment scaring Sharon. it has to be the worst thing Victor has ever done. WHY! Victor has done far worse that burning down the ranch was his fault. Victor lied to Sharon by wanting to make Nikki jealous and he didn’t want to marry Sharon but forced her Done with what Victor and nick better not forgive him ever

They need to retire old Vic Newman to jail. With-holding evidence about Adam’s hit & run etc.

NO! I do not like Sharon being treated this way by Victor! Shameful! Nick with all his past cheating better defend Sharon! The old Adam how he loved Sharon before they changed him by making him marry the con artist would have defended Sharon. Why did the writing change and why can’t Sharon be happy have a family a new wedding and babies . I wanted Sharon to have a little Adam JR . That is still my hope

Yes! One of my thoughts as well

We need to get Nikki off of Sharon’s back. That hate of her’s has gone on too long. Maybe when the truth comes out about Cassie look-a-like things will change with her & Sharon, if not retire her too.

They were a very happily married couple for a very long time. Any writer or producer who says they cannot write story for a happy couple is flat out lazy and not worthy of their job. Thr ough ups and downs and problems…Nick and Sharon were together for the better part of 10 years. There is such a thing as couples battling situations TOGETHER instead of constantly apart.

I agree this story keeps going on and on….

Looks like it will finally be a great year for Sharon/Shick fans! No character has been more abused or disrespected and its time we get our Sharon back!

Amen so true. I have waited a long long time.

That’s a really great interview! I cannot wait to see what happens with Sharon and Nick! And I think it’s time for Victor and Faux Cassie to back off on Sharon. I am kind of hoping that Sharon didn’t really change the paternity test. No matter what, that’s not something she would do. That’s more of a Phyllis move.

So sick of Nic/Sharron. She needs a new man in her life. I think that she needs the cowboy back. That was a better s/l. Anyone else? Dylan maybe??? He is great with Avery but we need the Drama.

Your wrong . Schick is Classic and Sharon is the best . i did love the Sharon and Adam romance because I don’t like Chelsea with Adam but Schick is meant to be they are adorable

Shick is what a lot of fans have been waiting on for years and years we have been a loyal and patient . I hope it is Shicks turn to shine once again . And the year of their 20th anniversary on the show is perfect timing. I love Shick they were once my favorite supercouple.

I agree with you enough is enough.

ohh dear lord not again; Nick and Sharon..
Y&R lives off of recycling couples, for decades..
That is a huge failure for Y&R..
It is near rare that there is something new and exiting, always reliving a relationship from the past..
This story ”who is the daddy” has been dragging on for a year, a year!! (so has the music box)
It has to be the longest story in soap history.
If not the longest the most boring.. LOL

I watch by FF through the couples drawn out conversations and from habit and hope, lots of hope, for Y&R to recycle its’ glory days..

geez just get to Y&R writers..

Sharon is great with Nick or Adam The magic was so clear she had so much Chemisty with both but Schick is the core of the show

I fast forward everything Chelsea. I never ever liked her character

Shick again is enough to turn this mess off once and for all. Sharon looks like a total nutcase for getting ECT over telling the truth. Sharon and her mental free passes is a piss off. This skank never pays for her crimes. Hate the Sharon character and wish they killed her off.

Team Sharon Newman Sharon Case. Best actress . Victor your going down!

Cathy…YES…THANK YOU…AGREED!!!!! What REALLY pisses me off about Sharon is that she does nothing but whine, get spooked and freaked out and (most of all) OBSESS about NIck 24/7. BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!!! Oh, spare me. ENOUGH ALREADY, Y&R!!!!!

Take care, Cathy. XOXOXOXOXO

Team Sharoon so shut up haters

Its soap opera and that’s what they are about…..and I’m loving my Shick back.

She is one class act they way she replies to interviews and her fans on twitter, never sarcastic and always classy! Her loyalty to her fans and friends is what makes her my favourite character and actress on YnR. I loved Shadam but I also love Shick so I am thrilled and I think its time Sharon has some happiness. I pray Phyllis doest come back and ruin Shick. Its been 20 great years and hoping ofr another 20+

My favourite couple has always been Nick & Sharon. I have been waiting years for them to get back together. Hope Nick sees the faux Cassie & finds out what Victor has done. Also hope they find a way to explain about Summer’s paternity without it affecting Nick & Sharon’s getting back together. Enjoyed Sharon Case’s interview. I think she is an excellent actress. I also think Joshua Morrow is an excellent actor.

YES 🙂 LOOOVE SHARON CASE!!! Finally- we are getting justice and good news of hope to ynr fans. Praying cassie lookalike is connected which brings her, shick, noah and faith together. Sharon deserves so much after all her talents in roles. She and nick were first loves so they make sense together…. And victor deserves a cruel awakning for HIS all time insane behavior. Missing adam 🙁 hoping he comes back to torture his father and althought I loved sharon and adam – I can settle for nick and her, as long as they don’t leave the show! As for summer and jack they always suited eachother thnx to phillys and this storry should have an appropriatte happy ending. Ms case will definitely win an emmy and don’t doubt she can hold her own in tv movies or primetime. Love u sharon! Ynr let’s go! (Y)

Big fan of Sharon! Hope she happy with how her character is written. I am still suspect on bringing back Camryn, although my comment does not reflect how wonderful this young lady has become and if Sharon and her are good with it, I trust them. Braeden obviously supports cassie return so at least for once the entire cast supportive.

OH, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH…

1. Sharon’s secret (about her messing with those DNA test results) needs to come out…QUICKLY!!!!!
2. More and more, watching Sharon go C-R-A-Z-Y is such a joke and DUMB AS HELL!!!!!
3. Most of all, Sharon needs to be locked up somewhere (as in P-R-I-S-O-N).

Storytelling at it’s DUMBEST……….

She thinks she change the test and only one test that’s what I like about her. The thing she thinks she did is not the evil Phyllis has done.

If Sharon should be locked up in prison, as you say, so should Phyllis, Niki, Chelsea, Kevin, Chloe, Adam, Victor & Abby. You Phyllis lovers are demented.

I love Sharon case she is one of the main reasons why I still watch this show since MABs hatchet job that nearly destroyed my favorite character. I hope that this is not only the year for Shick but I hope they stay together longer I love this couple. But mostly I am a fan Of Sharon Case I hope they do redeem this character Sharon hurting children just to keep a man is so out of character she got over Nick years ago. I also hate that she was inserted into this story line in the first place. I want Jack to stay Summers dad the way it was written so long ago was that it could be revisited and changed. why bring it up than not change it ? I want to see a stronger happy Sharon once again I hope this regimen can right some of the wrongs that this character has had to endure for many years now.

Love the Sharon Case interview, she is always just so classy…

2014 will be SHICKALICIOUS….

Oh and here’s hoping Summer remains Jack Abbott’s lil sweet pea and Sharon just hallucinated changing anything.

ya me too!! The whole paternity lie is all on Nick. He got a HUGE pass on this. I didn’t like how they made Sharon the scapegoat.

LOVE IT!

Yes we did need Shick and Miss Case is just tremendous in that s/l I love her and the character Sharon Newman.

I am a true Shick fan always

I’ve met Sharon Case before. She is such a nice woman. I support her and I appreciate her being a great actress. Remember, she only acts what is written.

Totally agree Tim I think everybody forgets they are only given a script to read and that is why it is called acting. The names her character and the actress are called on supposedly fan sites really is bizarre. I always thought the way they wrote out MS/Phyllis and using SC/Sharon to do it was really weak they can not go back but maybe we can make a twist and move forward.

From day 1 always been a fan of Sharon, And her Josh are great acting team. Hope she finally win a Emmy this year.

I’m more than ready for a Nick and Sharon reunion and please keep Adam away from Sharon I hated them two together. Nick,Sharon,Faith and Noah belong together as a family. I’m excited abou the reunion

I’m really hoping the switch was all on Sharon’s mind. That really is the only way I can see her coming out if this ok and Shick being able to be reunited . Jack should have always been Summer’s dad and I feel like everything has been set right now. I just hope that Victor is busted for gaslighting . My fear is that if Sharon did actually switch the test then Vic’s evil deeds will be forgotten .

They need to rip Colleen’s transplanted heart out of Victor’s chest and give it to someone who would appreciate it. Not even the great Victor Newman can be redeemed after gaslighting Sharon with her dead daughter’s look-a-like. I don’t like the actor and I hate the character. I used to like Victor but he has become intolerable the last few years.

SO TRUE!! Whoever wrote this storylline for victor (JFP?) needs a smack.. And eric braeden is even wrong for going along witth it. Even if it is his job, at the end of the day these actors should question roles, tweak them or refuse to play it. #WrongOnSoManyLevels

That’s why he is such a good actor….

I have been waiting for Nick and Sharon to get back together! I love this couple, they are awesome together. I want to see them have thier “Happy Ever After”

This interview has made my day thank you! I will even goes this far out there if they turn things around for my girl I will finally forgive JFP for killing off Frankie Frame on AW! Lol It has been nice seeing the chemistry again between SC & JM. Curious as to how they are going to pull this off but finally hopeful as they say in the military SC has earned her stripes on this show finally time for her to catch a break.

Oops did not proof read should read even go! Sorry

Many viewers have been waiting for a fallout from all that Sharon has done to Summer, Nick, Jack and Phyllis and from Sharon Case’s lastest interview, it appears Phyllis’ fall and all the time that past was for nothing?

If it plays out that way. I am finished watching this soap because it’s pointess, ridiculous and misleading. Nick raised Summer she is his child and she needs to stay his biologically and otherwise.

once again, Nick is let off the hook. He should have had a second paternity test done years ago, but he did not. Instead of him being tarred and feathered for that, they sacrificed Sharon and you Phyllis lovers seem too blind to see the truth.

AMEN! Sharon was the best character and Phyllis was a hot mess dirty tramp that screwed up every life she forced her way into. What she did to Sharon, and her treatment of Sharon… All that Sharon has done to her is nothing more than a little payback. Karma came back to get Nick and Sharon. I hope that Nick remembers who he really is and Shick are here to stay. Phyllis has always been the devil next to Victor and Sharon didn’t deserve any of that. They ruined her life and then ruined her character for PHYLLIS!?!? It’s long overdue to right these wrongs.

I guess I’m watching a totally different actress. This story line is stupid and makes Sharon look more stupid than she already is.

I hope that Nick dumps Sharon and Summer does learn that she is Nick’s child and he and Phyllis get together and Sharon pays. Need to bring Phyllis back even if she is a recast. This stupid story line has got to end and the Cassie look alike is stupid loosing my interest in watching keeps dragging on on on. End a story line and start a new one more interesting.

I agree. I see Sharon Case as a great actress but I am so sick of the Sharon storyline. It needs to end. I am more sick about how thy have twisted Victor’s role lately. Have watched Y&R since the beginning and his role was always as a powerful tycoon but not so mean spirited. They have it so he can’t even hire competent detectives. I have always been in his rooting section. They only mention Sharon burning down the ranch when they bring out what she has done to Victor but what about letting him go missing after the fall from the horse leading him to near death and while he was away stealing the company and sleeping with Tucker. Think it is a reach blaming all that on bipolar. Oh well that is why it is a soap. Really miss Phyllis. Will be hard to replace Michelle.

Nice interview. Nice actress. Disappointed that other fans like Phick can’t get a break. The character has once again gotten off scot free. As a victim and a heroine. She gets the guy, family and another child out of the deal. Congrats Shick fans! It’s apparent the character and you are greatly loved by the writers. You are very lucky. For the rest of us- especially Phick fans- hang in there. Maybe one day the rest of us will have reason to smile.

Any woman who sleeps with another woman’s husband when that woman in mourning the loss of a child is beyond scum. I will never ever like Phyllis. Hasn’t Phyllis gotten away scot free. Here’s a list of Phyllis’ crimes:

Crimes Committed
•Drugged Danny to be able to claim they had sex and she was pregnant (1994)
•Bribed a friend to fix paternity tests of her son Daniel (1995)
•Attempted murder by hit and run of Christine and Paul Williams (December 1994); discovered 2012
•Blackmailed psychiatrist Dr. Tim Reid (1996)
•Breaking and entering hotel room of Chris and Paul while on their honeymoon in Nevis (1996)
•Paid off Sasha Green $20,000 to leave town and not expose the paternity test she had falsified (1997)
•Murder of Sasha Green – suspect, but never charged (1997)
•Drugged Daniel’s real father, Brian Hamilton to get blood for another paternity test (1997)
•Lost custody of her son Daniel and was declared an unfit mother due to a falsified paternity test (1997)
•Arranged abduction and captivity of Michael Baldwin; he never pressed charges (1998)
•Tried for attempted murder of Diane Jenkins by arson; acquitted; Diane had set the fire and framed Phyllis (2002)
•Arrested for conspiracy to commit attempted murder of Dominic Hughes and obstruction of justice; charges dropped
•Blackmailed Brad Carlton over his tryst with Sharon Newman to get him to vote Neil onto the Newman Board; found guilty, sentence overruled, released from prison
•Breaking and entering Sharon’s room at the GCAC and cutting up her clothes
•Stole photos and published them without permission; lawsuit filed, and Phyllis was arrested; made a deal with Ricky to drop the lawsuit
• Arrested for obstruction of justice in the Diane Jenkins murder case; detained in jail and released later that day; charges were dropped a few days later
• Arrested for attempted murder of a federal officer (Christine Blair) in 1994; case was dismissed when judge discovered that Christine had not been a federal employee, statute of limitations had run out on attempted murder of Christine and Paul; Christine later filed a civil suit (2012)
• Moved the dead body of Tim Reid to avoid being implicated in his death (2012)

We are both entitled to our opinion. Enjoy the Shick scenes.

^^ it never said that Sharon didn’t switch the rest results Sharon Case just said the way it comes out is amazing.. So who knows how it is revealed; can’t wait when it does.

I adore the character of Sharon and the lovely talent who portrays her, Sharon Case. I was not pleased with the character destruction that prior regimes unleashed on Sharon, and I am pleased that the repairs have begun. We’re finally re-visiting the pain that Cassie’s death caused and how it makes sense that Sharon went into a tailspin, especially after watching her husband move on with his other soulmate, Phyllis, with whom he created another family, leaving Sharon behind and lost. Having said all that, I do wish that Michelle Stafford would return, and I do wish that Nick, Phyllis and Summer were reunited as a family. I’m a PHICK fan all the way, and I think that the mature grownup character of Nick belongs with Phyllis, and I think Sharon needs a new love who won’t cheat on her all the time like Nick did. I always thought Sharon and Diego would be a beautiful couple. Let’s get Greg Vaughan back, and give Sharon some adult love. Nick was a teenage sweetheart, but not her soulmate.

She is the worst character on this show. In fact, she is the dumbest female character on daytime television. Putting her back with Nick is a huge mistake because they were puppy lovers back in the day but they have zilch for chemistry and what they had to do to Nick to get him here is like the worst hatchet job of a character I have ever seen. He comes off looking like a drooling, basketweaving idiot. No man on this earth would be this stupid and no fan who knows this show would ever buy that Sharon and Nick are just made for each other with this undying passion for each other. That is pure crap. The show is loosing fans everyday over dragging out this riduculous story about what Sharon did and if they try to get her out of it or try and change it and then bring back a Phyllis that don’t match what Michelle Stafford built for the character, they are done. Sharon Case is a wackadoo just like the character she plays and trust me when I say this to you, if they don’t make her character pay for what she did and they don’t write Nick to wise up to this creepy idiot, this show for them is over. They need to get Victor out of this as well and they need to retire the lookalike. This is all killing this show and the numbers are screaming it. I don’t care how this actress or the rest of it tries to push this or make it sound like it is something so great, we, the viewer know it isn’t. We see it and we know that she screwed the father, the sons and the etire Abbot family of men and those various idiots that she picked up. So she is BP? That don’t erase it and it only makes her and Nick look so nasty that it stinks to high heaven. There is nothing soapy about this, it is just creeping everybody out. End it.

YOUR NUTS ! Sharon is the BEST ever. LOve love love every day she is on is a great day 😀

Genna…WELL SAID!!!!! I AGREE!!!!!

brids of a feather.

HA HA . I think the wackadoo here is you, Genna for your personal attack against the actress, Sharon Case for acting a part in a scripted show. Hey it’s ok for your to hate the character of Sharon Newman, but your attack on the actress, Sharon Case says more about your mental status. Seek help my friend.

Btw, I will let Ms. Case’s handlers know that there is someone deranged fan of Phyllis that may be a potential threat to the actress Sharon Case. Hiding behind a computer keyboard doesn’t not give you anonymity.
Btw, the ratings for Y&R are high, so you are 100% WRONG.

To the contrary. Her biggest threat is her own fans. They are the wackadoo’s. If that weren’t so, you would not be projecting it in your comments.

SHICK! Hence forth and forever more let the church say Amen.

Amen, Amen, Amen, AMEN…:D

I’d like to Sharon and Nick get back together just to piss of Victor. I hope Victor gets caught for what he is doing. I’m so sick of seeing him get by with all his holy than thou ideas. It’s time someone brings him down. I wish the writers would pull the head out and finally give Victor what he deserves.

WONDERFUL INTERVIEW with the fabulous Sharon Case!! I’ll be rooting for her Best Actress win at this year’s Emmy’s! Who else could do so much with the bat-shit crazy material they’ve been giving her?! She’s proven time and again that she’s one of the best actresses on television. 20 years on the number one soap is no accident, people. Congratulations on 20 incredible years, Sharon! 🙂

I think some Phick/Phyllis fans just can’t get past the mighty implosion of Phick, which was bound to happen. Sour grapes. They were never meant to be a long time super couple like Shick. Neva! I love Sharon Case and her character is the only reason I still watch the show. Her character has literally been put through the wringer over the last few years, unjustifiably IMO. SC has been the consummate professional even though she’s had the worst writing for her character for years; she never let it show onscreen, which can’t be said about other actors when they didn’t like their storyline. Her character deserves real happiness now and this stupid paternity switch story just needs to go away – fast! If Phyllis’ attempted murder of two people (Christine and Paul) can so casually and quickly be tossed aside with NO consequences for the character after fans waited years for her to pay, well then the same should happen for Sharon who has a mental illness and has already suffered for things she didn’t deserve (Skye’s murder) Why does she need to suffer more than she has? It’s too cruel. No, I want Sharon happy and Summer to remain Jack’s daughter. This character deserves her life back!

I waited years to see it come out that Jack is Summer’s father because that should be how it played out. I think the best twist would be that the results Sharon changed was her just changing the results back how they should be. I think a letter or diary written by Phyllis (before her “tragic” accident and it should be shown that Phyllis’ accident was just that…an accident) states Jack is the father and a new paternity is done to prove it. I haven’t liked this storyline and in fact stopped watching because I hate the way they were destroying Sharon. Also, I think the Cassie look-alike should be either Cassie’s twin who was taken at birth or a relative and should change her allegiance from Victor to Sharon when she starts sensing she and Sharon have some connection.

I LOVE sharon case and her character. Sharon has Always been my fav from the very start and the ONLY reason I still watch the Y&R.

I hope you win an Emmy Sharon you really deserve it for all the passion and drama and love you stir up with your character. I love Shick and love the sound of the year of Shick – but i want more than a year of them plz 😀

Please let Sharon be happy & healthy again this year & forever 🙂 Team Sharon!

LOVE SHARON! Ms.Case deserves an emmy forsure! Go get it girl!!!

I’ve been watching this show for over twenty years and i have always loved Nick and Sharon!
I grew up watching them grow up and it feels so much like coming home seeing them together once again.
There has always been something innocent and right about them AND its about time to give these two characters what so many of us have been waiting for!
LOVE PEACE and FAMILY
They are the cornerstone of this show for us 30something generation of fans.

I hope that Summer is Jack’s daughter regardless of they writers work it out. Jack and Phyllis are the perfect family and if they bring her back from the coma this is where she belongs, with Jack.

Nick and Sharon should be the one stable thing on Y&R. We have been waiting SO long for this moment.

The teasing scenes from them being locked up in that bank vault a few years…were so good. I missed them so much.
Now seeing them come back together feels like the writers are finally letting the old wound HEAL all the hurt and sadness we all have endured with the Nick and Sharon. SO THANK YOU

In one final note to the writers of Y&R;
The world around us can be a harsh and horrible place, and we escape to shows like Y&R to forget our troubles. We look to these shows to uplift our hearts and help us dream and refuel our imagination to chase our own dreams. Keep giving us more of Nick and Sharon!

Yes, so true!

GO SHARON! YOU GOT THIS! So glad to finally see justice for this character.. hope her luck keeps going that way! CASE is an amazing actress and y&r better not let this one go anytime soon!!!

I see that the five little fans that Sharon has are all showing up. Good. She needs all the help that she can get. Nobody likes this character on the show anymore and the only useful role she has left is screwing Nick after getting shock therapy. Think about it.

ha ha another idiotic post from a deranged Phyliss fan.
you are the minority here sweetheart.

I have been watching Y £ R for decades. Sometimes I correctly guess the next twist. Maybe Sharon will wake up one morning and realize that switching the DNA results was only a bad dream,.

When I began watching, Nick was with Phyllis. Sharon was with Adam. I knew of Shick’s
history, but to me, Shick just seems like a good pair for co-parenting little Faith – can’t
seem to get into them as a romantic couple. And feels and rings a bit untrue as just
yesterday Nick was crazy in love with, and waiting at the altar for Avery. Ok, maybe
not just yesterday, but pretty recently!

Ok, you don’t know the history of Sharon and Nick. We do, the ones who were there 20 years ago when they first met.

How long have they been apart?

I love Sharon Case she seems so sweet. Everyone always have such nice things to say about her. Even the most difficult people seem to like Shar. The only person to say less than flattering things was JM and from what I recalled even that was a misunderstanding.

Keep nik a sharon together they hot and romantic.i never like her with adam he make me sick.

Days Of Our Lives

Deidre Hall Marks 50 Years as ‘Days of Our Lives’ Dr. Marlena Evans

Published

If you have ever tuned-in to the soap opera genre over the last 50 years, and witnessed some of the greatest romances, drama, classic and outlandish storylines of all-time, you would have seen Deidre Hall smack dab in the middle of it as longtime Salem heroine, Dr. Marlena Evans.

It was 50 years on this date, June 21, 1976 that Hall first appeared on DAYS on NBC which was its home for 57 years before it moved to its current streaming platform on Peacock in September of 2022.

In Hall’s first episode she was introduced as a psychiatrist treating Mickey Horton (John Clarke) at Bayview Sanitarium after he suffered a complete mental breakdown. Mickey learned that his brother Bill Horton (Edward Mallory) was the biological son of Mike Horton (Wesley Eure) with his wife Laura (Susan Flannery) and that he had been lied to for years and years. From that moment on, the rest is television and soap opera history. Days of Our Lives put Hall front and center.

There were so many heartbreaking and shocking story twists involving the beloved Marlena. One of the first was the historic crib death of baby DJ (Don Jr.) in 1980, Marlena’s infant son with Don Craig (Jed Allan). The story had never been told on daytime television and Hall’s performances received accolades from TV critics to fans when Deidre received thousands of letters from grieving mothers who had gone through the same thing in their own lives.

DAYS also brought Deidre’s twin sister, Andrea Hall Lovell to the show as her on-screen sister Samantha, who had a grudge and even locked Marlena up in a sanitarium and took her place! Fast-forward and in 1982, DAYS launched the Salem Strangler story where everyone believed Marlena was his next victim, only it turned out to be Samatha. Jake Kositchek (played by Jack Coleman) was revealed to be the actual serial killer.

Later, Deidre would assume the role of Marlena’s look-alike, Hattie Adams in 2004, once played by her sister, Andrea. Over the years, Hattie has come back to Salem and caused trouble giving Hall a chance to play a different type of character, then the always upstanding Marlena.

THE LOVES OF MARLENA

Deidre Hall struck gold with all her leading men: from the late Jed Allan, to Wayne Northrop as Roman Brady, and of course, her enduring love story with the late John Black played by the iconic Drake Hogestyn. In fact, Marlena’s 1986 wedding to John (who was believed to be Roman at the time) remains a favorite of fans to this day.

TOP MARLENA STORYLINES OF ALL-TIME

While the list is long, here are several that were some of the memorable during Deidre’s five decades in Salem!

The Possession (1994- 1995)
Considered one of the most ambiguous, outlandish and unforgettable story arcs in soap opera history, then Days of Our Lives head writer, James Reilly went there! Marlena was possessed by the devil! That included; the demonic eyes, hissing at father John (Black) the priest, morphing into creatures, and the classic levitating in her bed! It became a cultural phenomenon and cemented Deidre Hall’s status as a daytime television legend. Just ask Ryan Gosling!

The Affair with John Black (1993)
John and Marlena’s forbidden love could not be denied and they had passionate affair, while she was still married to the real Roman. Problem was her daughter, Sami (Alison Sweeney) caught her mother having sex with John on a desk that changed Sami forever.

The Salem Stalker Mystery (2003-2004)
In a shocker, Marlena was revealed to be a serial killer who bumped off several Salem favorites residents who were all alive on the island of Melaswen (spelled “New Salem” backward). Turns out, she was manipulated and gaslighted by Andre DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) to do the “killings” and had no memory of her actions.

The Pier Scene (1991)
This remains Michael Fairman TV’s all-time favorite Deidre Hall moment, which featured some of the best acting in the storied careers of both Hall and Drake Hogestyn.

In the story, a presumed-dead Marlena returns after four years. One foggy night on the pier, John is alone, and Marlena steps out of the fog to reveal herself, and is reunited with the love of her life. You can watch it any year, any decade, and in any moment, and it will have you reaching for the hankies again and again. (best music score fo a soap scene of all-time too!)

Kristen’s Secret Room Reveal (1997)
Marlena was caught in Kristen Blake’s (Eileen Davidson) elaborate web of lies, when she was held hostage in a secret wine cellar/room until John managed to track her down, leading to an iconic on-screen reunion. The classic catfight between Hall and Eileen Davidson was one for the ages.

It should be noted that Maison Blanche, Queen of the Night, Possession, Aremid and Lady in a Cage were all a part of classic DAYS storyline and all featured Hall at the epicenter of it from 1993-1996.

THE RECENT YEARS OF MARLENA

In recent years, DAYS brought back the possession 2.0 storyline under then head writer Ron Carlivati in 2021 where the devil leapt back in Marlena after taking advantage of a frail Doug Williams (the late Bill Hayes)

In 2025, viewers watched the end of the love story of John and Marlena, as John succumbed to injuries sustained in an explosion saving a vial of medication needed to bring Bo (Peter Reckell) back to life. Marlena has been a widow on-screen since June of 2025 as Hall as portrayed the good doctor struggling with her grief and to move on with her life since his death.

One story that never goes away is Stefano DiMera’s (the late Joe Mascolo) obsession with Marlena, his “Queen of the Night.” Even in death, Stefano is toying with her from the great beyond with the mysterious chess set and the missing “pawn,” that he had gifted John and Marlena in his will. The mystery is currently unfolding on all-new episodes of Days of Our Lives.

Tune-in to Days of our Lives on the Monday, June 22 episode as Marlena looks back at her 50 years in Salem.

Share your congratulations to Deidre Hall for this incredible 50-year milestone as Dr. Marlena Evans on Days of Our Lives in the comment section. Then let us know, what is your all-time favorite storyline or moment in the life of Marlena over the past 5 decades? And, just for kicks, and to celebrate this amazing milestone, here is Marlena levitating below circa Christmas Eve 1994.

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

Published

on

By

With the highly-anticipated returns of Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) on this week’s June 24 episode of General Hospital, Steve Burton’s (Jason Morgan) upcoming return on July 13, which also serves as the ABC daytime drama’s 16,000 episode, things are about to fire on all cylinders in the story, as noted today by series star, Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).

On Father’s Day, the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning actor and mental health activist took to his Instagram and expressed in a video that he has some unbelievable upcoming senes with the aforementioned Burton and Hughes. Add to that Nazneen Contractor (Justine Turner) and Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing), where Benard gave credit where credit is due to the GH writing team, which is led by co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten..

In this video, Benard said, “I just want to get on here and say that I did some work with Steve Burton, Finola Hughes, Rick Hearst, Nazneen Contractor, and they’re all just fantastic. Truly fantastic. But, I want to say the writing was just exceptional. It truly was. It was exceptional. So, thankful for that kind of writing. I know writers don’t get the credit a lot, but I just want to say to the General Hospital writing team, keep rolling!”

GENERAL HOSPITAL PREVIEW

So now the question becomes, with a major tease like that, what is about to go down between Sonny, Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric? Will we finally get to the end of the line for Sidwell (Carlo Rota), as previously teased by the GH co-head writers? Will we learn what happened to Jason and Anna, fully? Will Justine and Sonny becomes closer or stop their liaisons? And what of Ric? Will he be true blue to his brother or double-cross him? There is a lot at stake as we move further into the summer and one that looks like it could be one of the more exciting ones in years!

FINOLA HUGHES CONFIRMED AMAZING SCENES WITH MAURICE BENARD

As a punctuation point to his video, Benard also shared this written message in the post: “I just did some wonderful scenes with Steve Burton, Rick Hearst, Finola Hughes and Nazneen Contractor and  and unbelievable writing, freaking amazing scenes that you will see in the near future on General Hospital.” In fact, Finola Hughes jumped in the post comment thread and responded, “I loved our scenes so much xxx”

Fans will most likely see all the scenes Benard referred to later in July, since GH tapes approximately six weeks ahead of air.

So, are you excited to see what Maurice is talking about? Are you hyped for what’s to come on GH? Any clue on what you think will go down between the main characters on the soap with the returns of Anna Devane and Jason Morgan to the mix? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
