JERRY DOUGLAS (Richard Damarr): The former Abbott patriarch (ex-John, YOUNG AND RESTLESS) guest-stars on January 25 as the vengeful father of the mysterious man seen in Amanda's (Heather Locklear) flashback. Comparing his new role with two Y&R characters, Douglas notes, "He's basically John, with Victor's [Eric Braeden] emotional nature. Richard is a wealthy, powerful man who controls the town where he lives." The actor says he may also reprise the role.
