Fans of Young and the Restless got a whole bunch of insight into con artist Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) when her irrepressible, money-conscious mama, Anita Lawson, played by Catherine Bach (Daisy, Dukes of Hazzard) came along.

Alas, the always-entertaining Anita was mostly phased out after Egan took Chelsea out of town earlier last year.

Now, on the heels of Egan’s return to Y&R, Bach is also coming back to Genoa City. TV Insider has learned that Bach will be back on screen on Thursday, August 8.

  Drucilla: "CBS has stated that having Drucilla return is not the creative decision they are looking for. In 2015, Rowell filed a lawsuit against the soap opera and Sony Pictures Entertainment for retaliation, claiming that she had been blacklisted by the network for speaking out against what she believed was racial discrimination during her time portraying Drucilla."
  
  Nina: "Nina returned on August 27, 2014 for Katherine's remembrance party."
  
  Danny: "In September 2013, Danny returned to Genoa City for the memorial service of his stepmother, Katherine Chancellor."
  
  Sheila: 2007 "Lauren finds Sheila's apartment and forces her way inside. Sheila and Phyllis then argue over who is who, and Lauren screams at them to stop. Sheila then runs to grab baby Summer in order to use her as a shield against Lauren; Phyllis tells Lauren to point the gun at her to protect her daughter, and a frightened Lauren, realizing the real Phyllis would never put her daughter in the line of fire, turns to Sheila and shoots her. Sheila is then declared dead at the scene."
