I think this might be hte first year I skip the Emmys. The noms were horrible and as an ABC watcher, they were completely shut out so there really isnt anyone for me to watch for. I think I'll just catch clips and read results isntead

I will probably watch because it isn't often that I can hear a DAYS name announced as a nominee so I got to soak it up as much as I can. If one of the girls from Y&R wins Younger Actress My TV might have my shoe in it though.

I will watch it because I won't have anything better to do when it comes on but I won't like the fact that I will have to wait a while before AMC nominations come up (and hopefully they win both Lead Actor for David Canary and Directing Team)

Not watching

at all many of my favs were overlooked. I stopped buying a looong time ago the "they didn't submit the right tape" rap

especially when I see the tapes "that were submitted" as a science/math/musician person, I can not buy that year end and year out a whole channel submits the wrong tape. The law of averages doesn't work that way for me.

It is a biased system there is "no doubt about it" and nothing anyone will say will change my mind.

That's it period. If they watch just a few tapes then maybe they need to do something different I don't know what but something because it doesn't work for me

and it seems like a whole lot of other people feel the same way as this is being discussed in forums I belong to (like here)

something is seriously wrong here these actors deserve recognition for their craft..the same ones over and over? Baloney.

Some phenomenal acting went down on GH they don't have much going for them for me with the morose kill kill scribing

but these actors take the lemons they are given and make some dang good lemonade. The actors are the only reason I watch daytime these days...to support them.

Nope not buying it they can pimp their premise till the cows come home

and I abhor sounding this narrow minded.

That's where I stand, I'm hopping mad this is a fixed deal that's it.

How many years has NBC soaps been passed over? I think some ABC fans are being pretty petty IMHO. I won't be watching for the reason that the overall nominations suck! Of course, I can always change my mind in the next month.

    • There was a rumor that Jean will die and that’s probably why she’s back then
    • There has been some confusion about Michael & facial burns. Please see this post: https://bsky.app/profile/shallotpeel.bsky.social/post/3lqkrryu54226 I've chosen to put this here instead of the Classic Thread because it is now with the appearance of recast Michael that this has come up. Different places online, including at least one podcast, remarks have been made about how remarkable it is that he is without facial scarring. Other fans say it was clear from the first that he did not have facial burns. What is included in this post is 2 screengrabs where you can see his face at the hospital & a very quick edit of that day in the hospital. 
    • Put me in the LOVE KMH camp. As a poster alluded to above, her detractors seem to come from people who first experienced the 80s Emily actress. And that's often the case with soaps, myself included. I enjoy the original actor so much that I just never take to the recast. However, KMH played Emily far longer than the original - for almost 20 years - and when she had great material, she was great. I get the sense she didn't like playing the whiny oh-woe-is-me Emily which was all the material she got from about 1996 until she took over the Intruder in late '99/early '00 and got to play a stronger kiss-ass woman who didn't care what anyone thought of her. (Some would call that a bitch but, if a man was in that role, he'd just be called a smart and savvy businessman.) Her relationship with Hal was great. The transformation was done realistically and I thoroughly enjoyed those years the best out of all. Once the writers decided to break up those two, they went back to writing Emily half the time as whiny and pathetic. I preferred when the writers made her stronger.
    • Hahaha - I do. I've always been the type, though, that can't miss anything. I get FOMO, so I'll not skip episodes or fast forward anything. There are only a few TV shows I've dropped because they got so bad vs. sticking it out to the end.  The promise that GL 1997 is better is what keeps me going. I especially want to see the fallout of Blake's lie about her twins and then Annie's descent which I believe won Watros's Emmy.
    • Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of

    • The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975. 
    • No. Ed and Holly were married and having problems. She had an affair with Roger and that's when Christina--Blake--was conceived. The rape happened much later, after Holly and Roger were married.
