‘The Young and the Restless’ (Y&R) spoilers star Courtney Hope (Sally Spectra) is making it pretty clear that she feels right at home in Genoa City so much so that she’s can help but praise the producers and the writers for their creative and collaborative effort. Here’s what she has to say.
Speaking to TV Line in a new interview, Courtney says that one of the best things she loves about the team at Y&R is that she gets to have more input about her character and what direction she wants her to go in.
‘The Young and the Restless’ Spoilers: Courtney Hope Weighs In On Y&R’s Creative And Collaborate Team
Courtney just made the crossover from Y&R’s sister soap, ‘Bold and the Beautiful’, as her character Sally has made the decision to move to Genoa City in search for a better life and of course, to leave behind all of the drama that she dealt with back in B&B’s fictional town of Los Angeles.
Courtney puts it this way, “Josh Griffith (Y&R’s head writer and co-executive producer) was really open to [hearing about] Sally’s past. It was definitely a collaborative meeting. They want to make sure the history is accurate and to make sure what has already happened is brought into the script when it’s necessary to make sure that there is consistency. I definitely want to honor where they take Sally. They’re different writers. Genoa City is different [from L.A.]. Josh said if there’s anything that’s important to you, please let us know. All in all, I’m very impressed with where they’re taking Sally.”
The actress also says that she is definitely feeling the love with the outpouring of fan support that she’s so far seen, both when she exited ‘Bold and the Beautiful’ and when she announced that she would be joining ‘Young and the Restless’. Courtney added, “It felt wonderful. It made me feel really good and, most importantly, that I’d done my job. The fans are so supportive. Sally went through a lot, to hell and back, as many characters on soaps do.”
