Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 2, 2008 Members Share Posted May 2, 2008 It looks like Stafford was a judge this year. I agree with her, just because you're a good crier, that doesn't warrant a nomination. I don't know if she's covering up CBS' ass or just telling the truth, but what she said about the tapes has some merit. http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/t...a_lather-2.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Southofnowhere Posted May 2, 2008 Members Share Posted May 2, 2008 Sounds like Y&R and CBS ran the Emmy show this year it shows in the noms! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members baller Posted May 2, 2008 Members Share Posted May 2, 2008 Sorry I'd buy that if we didn't already know that people weren't watching the tapes anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LoyaltoAMC Posted May 2, 2008 Members Share Posted May 2, 2008 There was obviously a lot of block voting done. There were some actors from all ABC shows who deserved to be nominated. I mean, in what universe can even the best Nicole Forrester reel beat even the worst Nancy Grahn reel? I've read that the blue ribbon panel who will now get the tapes to decide the winner is made up of mostly non-daytime people who pretty much spend their time laughing at the "melodramatic" and "overwrought" performances. Taken out of context, a lot of the acting, even from the best daytime actors, can come off as hysterical and over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read several times that the winner was chosen at the same time as the Pre-Noms. Who ever got the highest votes there is the winner. Maybe things are different now, but I know that's what happened in the past. One big daytime actress, might've been Dee Hall, mentioned that one year she was the only daytime member of the blue ribbon panel deciding the winners, and most of the panel sat there making fun of the nominated actors and of the nominated shows.

Members brimike Posted May 3, 2008 Members Share Posted May 3, 2008 There is no blue ribbon panel this year. The winner's already been decided based on the pre-nom votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
