Members jcar03 Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 For OLTL I think they will put up Kathy Brier (for the current Tommy Storyline/Finding out she can't have biological children) and Catherine Hickland (being revealed as Spencer's killer). Hickland is getting all kinds of raves from the media for this storyline and I heard it only gets better next week. Was I the only one who found themselves fast forwarding through GH last week? Its was a borefest for me at least. If I didn't do the episode counts I wouldn't even bother watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sylph Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 To be honest, I don't care about the Emmies anymore. I don't even care for primetime edition, let alone the daytime one. There is just nothing much to be araded, especially in the writing department (which is, of course, the one I'm most interested in). And besides, the awards are just not fair - the best show never wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members d_wsb Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 Right after the Emmys this year.. I posted on my journal who I want or would be pre-nominated for GH: Younger Actor - Josh Duhon & Bradford Anderson Younger Actress - Kirsten Storms & Julie Marie Berman Supporting Actor - Greg Vaughan and still pissed he didnt get nominated this year and Jason Thompson. Supporting Actress - Kimberly McCulllough & Jane Elliot. Lead Actor - Maurice Benard & Rick Hearst Lead Actress - Nancy Lee Grahn and the 2nd spot to either one of the these 3 since they hog up all the airtime all year: Kelly Monaco, Rebecca Herbst or Laura Wright. I really wish I could've added Robin Christopher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series All My Children: David Canary One Life To Live: Trevor St. John The Young And The Restless: Peter Bergman The Young And The Restless: Christian LeBlanc I honestly don't know who else to nominate in this category these are the only I have really seen turn out emmy worthy performences. I would say a big no to Maurice and Steve because their mediocore at best IMO and I think Thorsten doesn't do enough in his scenes. I would love to say Micheal E. Knight but I to don't think he got enough material this year. In my opinon that was the biggest waste. Especially considering all Tad went through with the this year and the year before with Madden, Dixie, Krystal and baby Jenny. So much lost oppourtunity. Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series All My Children: Bobbie Eakes As The World Turns: Martha Byrne As The World Turns: Maura West The Young And The Restless: Melody Thomas Scott I am again at a loss for any more nominee's. Susan did a good job with her story supporting Kendell and all but really what else did she do? Michelle Strafford has been trapped in this boring role and I just don't see her really turning out emmy performences. Erika Slezak is window dressing. Nancy is reduced to fodder. I currently think ATWT has the best use of lead actresses with Byrne and West leading this year. They've been exceptional. Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series All My Children: Jeffery Carlson As The World Turns: Roger Hogwarth General Hospital: Bradford Anderson General Hospital: Jason Thompson General Hospital: Greg Vaughn One Life To Live: Tuc Watkins The Young And The Restless: Greg Rikaart In think this is the one that i'll be interested in this year. There has been alot of male talent in supporting this year IMO. Alot of good stories and alot of interesting portrayals. Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series All My Children: Alexa Havins General Hospital: Kimberly McCullough General Hospital: Kelly Monaco General Hospital: Rebbecca Herbst One Life To Live: Hillary B. Smith One Life To Live: Kathy Brier The Young And The Restless: Sharon Case The Young And The Restless: Jess Walton Another good category to look out for these supporting categories aren't as hard to put in as the lead ones were. Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series As The World Turns: Jesse Lee Soffer As The World Turns: Van Hansis General Hospital:Scott Clifton General Hospital: Jason Gerhardt Hard nominations to fill up.... Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series General Hospital: Julie Marie Berman General Hospital: Kirsten Storms The Young And The Restless: Adrienne Leon Hard nomination to fill out I would say Rigel but I just don't think she should especially for only being on the show for about 3 months out of the year. Landon is too overexposed and I just don't see anyone else to put on the ballot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 I am just going to do All My Children. Lead Actor: David Canary, Thorsten Kaye Lead Actress: Alicia Minshew, Bobbie Eakes Supporting Actor: Cameron Mathison (he really proved what he is capable off in the initial days of the CRASH storyline), Jeffrey Carlson Supporting Actress: Susan Lucci, Alexa Havins Younger Actor: No one Younger Actress: Leven Rambin, Ambyr Childers AMC should submit any episodes surrounding the CRASH for wqriting, directing and drama series. One note on Alexa. I really think Alexa did an amazing job as a supporting actress these last few months, especially at the hospital when Kendall was first brought in. I really hope she gets a nomination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 I agree Adam over the last few months Alexa Havins has been the very definition of a supporting actress. (and she has been awesome at it) Not a leading actress who was shoved into the supporting category so the show could get more nominations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jcar03 Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 Well Nancy Lee Grahn has had little to no storyline all year so I don't think she has much to chose from if they put her up. Bradford Anderson is too old for the younger actor category if the imdb.com year of birth is correct (1980) which I do believe is since he said he went to college with Kristen Bell who was also born in 1980.

Members LoyaltoAMC Posted September 21, 2007 Members Share Posted September 21, 2007 Does anyone really believe that Lucci would enter herself in the supporting actress category? That gave me a big LOL. I think for her, it's lead or nothing at all. Ditto Slezak. She's purely supporting on the show now, but I could never see her submitting for anything but lead actress.

Members RuAsRuAnAu Posted September 21, 2007 Author Members Share Posted September 21, 2007 There should be stiffer & improved rules at the Daytime Emmys. To be considered "Lead", a thespian should appear in at least 100 episodes during the year of eligibility. "Supporting" is no more than 99 episodes and no less than 30 episodes. "Younger" is a thespian who is no older than 23 years of age during the year of eligibility. Don't you hate it when Havins & others should've ticked off the "Lead" box instead of "Younger"? I do. Lead: Submit 5 episodes during the year of eligibility Supporting: Submit 6 episodes during the year of eligibility Younger: Submit 7 episodes during the year of eligibility Drama Series & Writing/Directing Team: Submit 10 episodes for each category during the year of eligibility. This would make the shows work harder at improving the quality of their shows. If the above changes were implemented, this is how the 2007 Daytime Emmys would have been like... Drama Series: Y&R Writing: Y&R Directing: GH or OLTL Genie Francis would not have been eligible. Who's to blame? Brian Frons. Guza wrote a longer story, but it had to be condensed to 6 weeks.

Members dragonflies Posted September 21, 2007 Members Share Posted September 21, 2007 Sorry Adam, I haven't see ANYTHING emmy worthy from Cam, he's so bad he makes Sabine look good, and vice versa. Bobbie, I don't see her as lead actress, Alexa, what'd she do that was emmy worthy this year? Anyways my choices are: Lead Actress: Alicia Minshew/Susan Lucci(Crash storyline) Lead Actor: Thorsten Kaye(crash storyline)/David Canary Supporting Actress: Most likely will go to Bobbie by default Supporting Actor: ?????? Younger Actress: I can see Leven getting a nom, even though her acting with Ava is just BAD/Ambyr Childers will probably get a nom Younger Actor: Brent Webber cause there's really no other younger actor to nominate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
