I heard that Jane Elliot does not submit herself for the emmy anymore

The WTF category:

Renee Jones/Lauren Koslow, DAYS (I could see both in supporting, rather than Lead... Zucker could have been Lead)

Thaao Penghlis, DAYS (did he do anything last year?)

Ronn Moss, B&B (Right. Lead. Totally. Jack Wagner might kill himself. Has Moss EVER been nominated?!)

Michael Easton, OLTL (WHAT?!)

Emily O'Brien, Y&R (seriously, who is she sleeping with?)

Amelia Heinle, Y&R (I barely saw her last year!)

Brianne Moncrief/Shannon Kane, AMC (Part of me wants both to be nominated just to see the godawful tapes they'd choose to be judged by)

The "Way to Go!" Category:

Debbi Morgan, AMC

Elizabeth Hubbard, ATWT

Susan Haskell, OLTL

Jeanne Cooper, Y&R

Melissa Claire Egan, AMC

Alley Mills, B&B

Kathy Brier, OLTL

Cornelius Smith, Jr., AMC

Glaring omissions for me:

Elizabeth Hendrickson, Y&R, Younger/Supporting (not sure of her age)

Robin Strasser, OLTL (a fair share of camp, but she had a lot to work with this year!)

Brittany Underwood, OLTL (she EASILY acted circles around Alderson and Fath, and had better material in the Ray Montez story than Fath had all year)

Alison Sweeney, DAYS (though she was very pre/post taped during the Rafe/Killer storyline, she carried a lot and could have been lead)

Megan Ward, GH (I thought she had much better material all year than Laura Wright)

Jason Thompson, GH (he carried a lot of material and had a spinoff during the year... Great material surrounding the pregnancy/wedding)

Chrishell Stause, AMC (it's a shame she didn't have material for supporting, and is too old for Younger because either category would have benefitted from her being in it... especially that dreadful younger actress category!)

Trevor St. John, OLTL (anything with Susan Haskell that wasn't doe-eyed gooey mush was worthy of submitting and winning)

Mark Lawson, OLTL

Oh Dear God In Heaven:

Laura Wright, Sarah Brown, and Tamara Braun (The Carly Club) all pre-nominated.

Gina Tognoni and Heather Tom (OLTL's Kellys) both pre-nominated.

GH and B&B didn't even have anyone to submit for Younger Actor, LMAO!

There's really slim picking when it comes to males at B&B: Thorne, Eric, Ridge, Rick, Marcus, Nick, and those are the only ones I can think of right now... No wonder everyone sleeps around on that show! There's not much variety.

I'm disappointed by the lack of ATWT discussion for this pre-nom's list. I feel like I'm the only one discussing. Has PissAnt scared everyone away and I just didn't get the memo?

Elizabeth Hendrickson is 29 so she is 4 years too old for the Younger Actress category. With the underwhelming lack of talent in Younger Categories, maybe they should move the age up to 30.

Best Supporting Actor

I really hope Van Hansis and Elizabeth Hubbard win!!!

I can't understand how Grayson McCouch got a pre-nom over Jon Hensley (or anyone else for that matter)! He's the most boring, one-note actor on that show and I don't understand why they ever brought him back.

Jon had a lot of great stuff last year (Lily's overdose and Dusty's murder, Lily's departure (Martha and Jon were great in those scenes), the affair with Carly) that should have gotten him a pre-nom at least.

My choices for nominees (my list is somewhat limited because I only watch two soaps):

LEAD ACTOR

Christian LeBlanc

LEAD ACTRESS

Susan Flannery

Judith Chapman

SUPPORTING ACTOR

William deVry

Kyle Lowder

Ted Shackelford

Not that Graz isn't Emmy worthy, but 2008 wasn't his year.

SUPPORTING ACTRESS

Alley Mills

Heather Tom

Adrienne Frantz

Amelia Heinle

YOUNGER ACTOR

Bryton

Kevin Schmidt

YOUNGER ACTRESS

Jacqueline MacInnes Wood

Christel Khalil

Emily O'Brien

For what he sent in? I hope he wins.

He put in the daniel/amber breakup. It was his best work, ever.
