It doesn’t get much better than a Daytime Emmy Award winner and one of our favorite soap hoppers returning to the land of drama. Roger Howarth is back in daytime TV, and his wildly successful soap career just keeps rolling. This time, though, he’s playing a role with more twists and secrets than a mystery novel.
Howarth has joined The Young and the Restless as Matt Clark — or should we say Mitch Bacall — and let’s just say, this guy comes with layers.
After weeks of anticipation, his big debut finally happened at the tail end of the Friday, October 31 episode, in a scene that sent longtime fans buzzing.
Sharon found herself face-to-face with a man from her past — the infamous Matt Clark, who once made her and Nick’s lives a living nightmare. Only now, he’s acting like he’s never met her before… and that his name isn’t Matt at all. Classic soap denial, right? Well done, Roger.
One thing Roger Howarth has absolutely nailed is the mystery. He’s keeping viewers guessing at every turn; flashing that trademark charm one moment and dodging questions the next. When Sienna confronted him about his alias, he brushed it off so smoothly you’d think he believed the lie. Or does he?
So far, Howarth’s got it all: the looks, the charisma, the acting chops, and we’re hooked. You honestly couldn’t have cast a better actor for this kind of role. Roger Howarth earns an easy A+ in our soap gradebook.
What about you? How would you grade his performance so far — A+, or are you saving that for when the next big scene drops?
