Longtime The Young and the Restless veteran Jerry Douglas is returning to the role of John Abbott later this fall.
Get ready to fall head over heels in love with at least one The Young and the Restless fall storyline, because it's going to include an appearance by none other than longtime Genoa City favorite Jerry Douglas (John Abbott).
The Massachusetts native, who retired from daytime in 2006 but drops back in to GC from time to time as a ghost, will be stepping back into the shoes of Jack (Peter Bergman) and Ashley's (Eileen Davidson) dad for an episode airing Monday, September 26, Soaps In Depth reports.
A recent episode had his two children reminiscing about their late father and hoping his ghost would return one more time. It looks like they'll be getting their wish, but will he dish out the spiritual guidance they need?
