Kim Zimmer will win because of an excellent theory that I posted awhile back from another soap.

Here's hoping Peter and Maura take it.

Both categories have pathetic choices…

The should be a rule that LEAD actors/actresses have at least 100 episodes a year. This isn’t too much considering each show has about 255 episodes a year…

Royally pissed that neither Susa Flannery nor Nancy Lee Grahn made the list still Michelle Stafford who did nothing ally year and Jeanne Cooper who’s always good but was merely supporting show up there.

Shocked to learn Chrystall Chappel und Christina LeBlanc were apparently lead as well - and I totally missed it.

Keeping my fingers crossed for Peter Bergman who deserves another Emmy. He was spectacular last year. Don't care for lead actress since the real contenders are missing...

Christian and Michelle.

I don't think that La Zimmer can repeat, the cancer storyline was awful. JC CC or MW don't have the material.

I won't even go into how many talented actresses got the shaft by not being nominated.

If Kim Zimmer submits the episode where she was talking to Tom Pelphrey about committing suicide or the party episodes and her sitting in the car afterward - she stands a very good chance. Both episodes were very subdued and layered performances and none of the over the top stuff that she can sometimes fall into. Both were very powerful performances.

As to people not submitting their names, I totally agree that if a person didn't have that much to do then they shouldn't submit their name. But in a year that they were still at the top of their game and were still on a lot and were good then they have just as much right to compete as anyone else.

As a fan I would rather know that my favorite got a nomination based on all the people competing and not just maybe got a nomination based on the fact that someone who deserved it pulled their name out.

And if I was a performer I would feel the same way. I would want to know that I was competing with everyone who deserved to be in the competition.

I do feel that Jeanne Cooper should have put herself in Supporting this year. She deserved a nomination there but not in lead.

As far as some others on the ballot this year, I blame it on the shows for submitting some of them and for the Emmys not having a place for some of them. Genie deserved a nomination but where were they going to put her since the daytime part did away with the Guest award. This year it was greatly needed.

Well there are other leading ladies on OLTL, like Kassie DePavia, Robin Strasser and yes last year Bree Williamson but on B&B there are no other leading ladies, Susan and Katherine are it and yet again Katherine was overlooked.

Susan Flannery had POWER HOUSE performances last December with Betty White and such...so that is what is shocking to me!!

Colleen Zink Pinter during "Jennifer's death" outdid the work of Flannery's 'Emmy Bait' story. I'm tired of her being placed on a pedastal because she's Susan frickin' Flannery. DEAR LAWD the only one who deserved that honor was Beverlee McKinsey, who was all natural.

IMO Betty White and Alley Mills were far better than Flannery, who just yelled, and made some strange acting choices. I don't know what the hell Susan was thinking there. You don't always have to overshadow your co-stars.

    • Yes, it has. It was seen in the episodes when Dani broke into the house while Hayley and Bill were on their honeymoon. Dani and a Fairmont Crest security guard were also shown outside the house's entrance. Bill and Hayley were seen in the foyer when they returned. I imagine the set will resurface when there's a need for it.
    • There is some kind of arrangement going on between Justin and Evie, who seems to be caring for Sam. I'm not sure, but she may even be living there with Justin and Phillip. Phillip inviting Evie at least makes a little more sense (if the guest list was limited to women Vanessa liked, it would've only consisted of Trish and Helena. lol)  Maybe it was more common to hang on to performers, back in the day? Instead of immediately kicking them to the curb? Evie hadn't had much to do after Chet was revealed to be her stalker. With Rita, Jackie and Ben gone, there weren't many on the canvas she'd really worked with, other than Ross. They could've pivoted her back to Ross, instead of letting him languish love-less for nearly a year other than goo-goo eyeing Amanda. Nowadays, there might've been a moment written Jordan and Janet, an eye-wink to the audience about them having previously worked together.
    • I 100% agree that Bill and Haley's set would work better as a bedroom. I also think it might have made more sense to give them a penthouse instead of a mansion. Realistically they aren't going to have the room for multiple mansions, even with the larger studios. A more open concept penthouse would've been fine. I also wish more people lived together. The age confusion kinda messes that up but I would at least have Chelsea living with Dani. If Martin were Anita and Vernon's child (as he should be), I'd have these families living together as well. By doing that, the space used for Martin and Smitty's house could be used to build a dining room for the Dupree home and I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to throw a couple bedrooms in as needed.
    • CBS primetime was such a mess in the 1990s. 1990/91 fourth consecutive third place finish. 1991/92 to 1993/94 some signs of life but it didn't last.  1994/95 to 1999/2000 another primetime mess era. 1995 the sale to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. The only bright spots were Touched by an Angel becoming a Top 10 show and Everybody Loves Raymond starting to show growth. CBS primetime would have a comeback in 2000 with the premieres of Survivor and CSI and Everybody Loves Raymond becoming a Top 10 show, and the rest is history.
    •  Thanks! For some reason I had misremembered ER and Chicago Hope going directly head to head but that may have been because of the hype about both shows.    Poor Connie Chung. She seem poised for success and possibly the next Barbara Walters. I don’t recall her co-anchor gig on the CBS Evening News was well received though. She kind of tanked her career moving into more a tabloid journalist role once at ABC and especially once she moved off network TV to CNN and later more infamously on MSNBC.

    • Strangely, it was Phillip who invited Evie to go to the ball with him. She had been taking care of Samantha, so I guess it was a way to thank her for helping Justin after Jackie's death? So she was not invited by Vanessa. Phillip brought her as his plus one. That Evie stayed on the canvas so long is extremely odd, especially since Ben was gone way before her. My theory is Marland was going to bring Rita back, so they wanted Evie to remain in place as her sounding board. When he left and Potter was still EP, that might have still been the plan. Once Kobe came in, that would have been thrown in the dumpster along with a lot of other story plans and characters.
    • Nina and Portia are generally presented as entirely too savvy to not think this ketamine (don't even GET me started on that) nonsense wouldn't immediately blow up in their face. Drew, the ex-navy seal and congressman, wouldn't get a drug test immediately after acting wildly out of character? Portia allowed this to so easily be traced back to her by roping in Brad, a man who can't stand her? Nina didn't think Willow would Stand By Her Man? Girl, PAY ATTENTION! I also find it disturbing how BOTH of them are gaslighting Willow. It feels gross. They should have presented Gio as anything other than a responsible, genial and affable guy if they wanted us to buy any of Dante's ranting about him. You've known this kid since he was a baby and suddenly you're yelling at him like he's the devil incarnate? It was so forced. Every one of them, including Dante, know that they all would have done the same thing in Gio's shoes. Teen gets drunk, friends cover for them. Gio's only 5 years older than him, barely allowed to legally drink himself. How was he to know the kid had alcohol poisoning? Alexa Havins crying every day over keeping a baby secret. Ahh memories. Molly and Kristina are just the worst to their mom and Alexis allows it. Kristina does need to be committed, she's a danger to herself and others. I wish Alexis would just tell her that she knows. I can't wait until Molly finds out about her almost getting Ric and Liz killed. I need her to body slam Kristina. Sasha thinks she knows EVERYTHING. She's always giving advice and painted as right no matter what. And so holier than thou while carrying a married man's baby.
    • Correction, Chicago Hope 1994/95 was initially Thursday 9 pm, a CBS dead zone and head-to-head w/ Seinfeld. 1994/95 CBS Thursday 10 pm initially was Eye to Eye with Connie Chung. Later in the season CBS did a scheduling shift with Chicago Hope moving to Monday 10 pm, Eye to Eye with Connie Chung moving to Thursday 9 pm, and 48 Hours moving from Wednesday 10 pm to Thursday 10 pm.
