Ew! ‘Might Not Wanna Think About’ *This* Dirty Young & Restless Secret, Mark Grossman Says
A whole lotta storylines on Young & Restless revolve around which character is A, B and CEO of this or that company.
But what we don’t always — or would that be ever? — think about is that all of those shuffles in the executive suites mean that the cast is perpetually being relocated from one set to another.
One day, this office is home, sweet home, and the next, who knows?
Since Mark Grossman plays the son of mercurial Victor, he is especially well-practiced in this game of musical chairs.
In fact, over the years, “there have only been a couple of times when Adam was actually CEO and sitting in the big chair,” he recalls for Soaps.com.
That doesn’t bother Grossman nearly as much as it does Adam, who vacillates between wanting to be the top dog and wanting to say, “To hell with it!” and stick it to Daddy Dearest.
(He even has an idea about how Adam could do that.) The actor isn’t as drawn to the corner office at Newman Enterprises at all the way, say, Victoria is on screen. “I weirdly like working on the Newman Media set,” he admits.
Maybe he’s being sentimental, considering that that’s where Adam and Sally hooked up on the couch. Then again, maybe not.
“I wonder how many people have had sex on that couch,” he muses. “Might not wanna think about that too much!”
Good idea. Moving right along, review the below photo gallery for a primer on Adam and his complicated relationships.
The Young and The Restless star Mark Grossman feels that’s exactly true for his character Adam Newman.
He has been a deeply misunderstood man all his life, even by those closest to him. Hence, it is no surprise that he is always at loggerheads with his family. Especially, with his father – Victor Newman.
Yet, there is nothing more he’d like than to live up to the Victor Newman Jr. name, his portrayer Mark Grossman believes.
But that’s not all he wants for his character. “I would love to do a storyline where Adam started his own business and was doing his own thing, and it was a big kind of middle finger to the family,” Mark told Soaps.com.
Furthermore, the popular soap star added that he loves it when Adam works with Jack Abbott on The Young and The Restless.
Moreover, he enjoys that the said collaboration sort of “triggers” Victor Newman. Well, of course, Jack is his biggest nemesis, so it makes sense. “I guess what I’m saying is I enjoy any time Adam can stick it to Victor,” he jokes.
Mark even adds that he actually loves working with Peter Bergman as he brings out the best in everyone he works with.
Well, if that’s what Adam wants, we think he really should join forces with Jack. In fact, it would serve a two-fold purpose. Adam would get what he wants. Meanwhile, Jack gets to stick it to Victor for stealing Kyle away from him.
