Phyllis Returns
Watch Out Genoa City
While she’s already been airing for just over a month on CBS’ “The Young and the Restless,” actress Gina Tognoni will officially join the residents of Genoa City when she brings Phyllis Summers back to town after the character had been in a coma for more than a year. In a newly released promo, the network touts the debut of Tognoni on the soap as she declares trouble is coming to town after being “well rested and ready.”
As previously reported, “Y&R” original cast member Tom Hallick, who played Brad Eliot from 1973 to 1978, will assist Phyllis in her journey back to town when he appears on the Friday, September 26 episode as a truck driver who gives the fearsome diva a lift. Funny enough, the scene pays homage to the 1973 premiere episode of the soap, which included Hallick’s former character getting a lift from a truck driver heading toward GC.
At the end of the promo, Gina/Phyllis says, “This is gonna be fun!” Do you agree?
