Detective Burrow arrived on *The Young and the Restless* as a straight-laced investigator, but with Mitch’s story developing, the same can no longer be said. The character’s actor, Matt Cohen, has revealed that there is more to Burrow’s choices than a simple turn to corruption.
Cohen teased that with every rising complication, viewers should start expecting even more surprises. The plot is also shedding light on Mitch Bacall, who is secretly Matt Clark, adding further layers to the storyline.
### Matt Cohen Says Some Things Are ‘Unfolding’ with Burrow on *The Young and the Restless*
Matt Cohen has emphasized that Burrow’s involvement with Mitch does not necessarily mean he is a sellout. He explained, “There’s some things unfolding literally as we speak. There is a reason, obviously, that Burrow’s gotta be doing what he’s doing. Maybe being a detective doesn’t pay enough, and it’s as simple a reason as that? But I highly doubt in soap land that it’s as simple a reason as that, if you know what I’m saying. Be suspicious.”
Cohen also shared his experience playing Burrow, saying, “You know what’s crazy? I don’t know what it says about me, but it’s the easiest character I’ve played in a long time. Burrow, he’s into some stuff, and I just feel like that’s kind of what life dishes you out. You’re kind of dealt a hand, and you gotta figure it out, no matter what it is. And Burrow is very much getting dealt a hand. And it’s fun.”
### Appreciating the Writing and Complexity of Burrow’s Character
The actor praised the writing on *The Young and the Restless* for both Burrow and Mitch’s storylines. He credits the script for providing him with clear beats to play, stating that the writers have “got a grasp on the character.”
Even though this new role is more morally complicated than his previous role as Dr. Griffin Munroe on *General Hospital*, Matt Cohen says he loves the challenge. The depth and intrigue of Burrow’s character make this role an exciting journey for him as an actor.
