The Young and the Restless News: Joshua Morrow Talks About Courtney Hope’s ‘Youthful Energy’
Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a joint interview, Courtney recalled the first time she met her future co-star, Joshua. She said, “I was on B&B and we passed each other in the hallway and he kind of smiled. Because I knew who he was, I got a little intimidated, so I just kept walking and then the next time I saw him, was at Gina Tognoni’s [ex-Phyllis] going away party. I became friends with her, so I wanted to come over and say good-bye. Joshua was there but I didn’t really talk to him. I was a little nervous because he’s been on the show.”
Joshua said that it didn’t take very long for the two of them to hit it off. He also praised Courtney for her “youthful energy.” He said, “She’s a cool chick and I really like being around her. When Sally was jacking with Summer and she and Phyllis were constantly at each other’s throats, I remember saying to [Executive Producer/Head Writer] Josh Griffith, ‘Isn’t this Soap 101? Don’t I need to hook up with Sally to cause lots of problems?’”

Courtney also said that she could tell from the start that she and Joshua were going to get along. She said, “Right away, you can tell that Joshua is a really funny guy and I appreciate a good sense of humor and a lighthearted spirit. So the first time I met him, I thought he’s really easygoing, which I really appreciate and enjoy.”
