I watched, but they didn't show Daytime (or Supporting Comedy or Drama TV) and I can't find it online. Has anyone found it yet? I'm just dreading a Christel Khalil win for two months of doing nothing.

JSF, I don't think those awards were given during the live telecast; they must've been given out earlier.

I checked WireImage and some other photo sites and the only soap stars that were there were Renee Elise Goldsberry and the girl that plays Lily on Y&R.

Oh, I know it was given out at an award ceremony. But for instance, the Emmys (or Golden Globes, whichever) post video on their official site of backstage interviews -- stuff you NEVER see anywhere else. I didn't know if perhaps the NAACP had similar unseen footage. At the very least, I'll want to see a transcript of the acceptance speeches. If it's like the Oscars and Emmys even the "other" awards still have a ceremony of sorts.

And again, I'd want to see Tracey's acceptance..

Yes, there's a chance a PASSIONS actor can win an emmy this year and even next year but given the fact that JER doesn't really give the actors meaty enough material plus NBC actors rarely get nominated, it's unlikely any Passions star will win anything else.

I think the material is fine. It obviously doesn't take much, LOL. I think it's just a bias against NBC. I think, unfortunately, it's a huge stretch we get even a single nomination for NBC. I'm praying for DAYS but I won't get my hopes up. Passions is a huge stretch, unfortunately, although I'm hoping Ben Masters finally gets a long overdue nod along with Juliet Mills and Lindsay Hartley. All three are SO deserving of some recognition. Emily Harper too.

But congrats to Tracey Ross! She's had some good scenes over the years. Not a stellar actress (sorry) but still does very well when given the material.

    • The actor who plays Martin has been teasing that nobody has guessed Martin's secret. I love that for things like that and the June story we have no idea. I feel like if we didn't have the day ahead feeds Anita's reveal would've been shocking as well. I love that they aren't going the obvious route with these stories. 
    • I tried following the news in Los Angeles at https://laist.com (independent public radio and news) They had up-to-the minute accurate info during the wildfires in January. There's no video, no impact to my mind as to what's happening. Trying other outlets, to get the truth, but it's hard.  
    • That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April. 
    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining.
