Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 I don't get it :cry: So Y&R can still win for stuff the punished Fi Core writers actually were involved in writing yet they just won't list their names? Woah way to be severe there WGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JaneAusten Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 Honestly I had to do an eyeroll at that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted December 15, 2009 Author Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 Yep, pretty much, they won't get the award, but their staff will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 And I bet it'll go on their resumes regardless. That'll show them WGA! lol oh well While I think this year has been horribly uneven, and I hate to sound like Nelson B, here's hoping OLTL wins.

Members JaneAusten Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hey we all know it's common to reward mediocrity. I'm still wondering how Gwyneth Paltrow won an Oscar for Skakesphere in Love over Cate Blanchett in Elizabeth and Meryl Streep in One True Thing or beat Saving Private Ryan for Best Picture. Apologies to anyone who liked the film and felt the movie and actress deserved these awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 My fave is still that "brilliant" best picture win, Crash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted December 15, 2009 Administrator Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hopefully OLTL submitted the episode when Marty finds out Todd was her rapist (the episode that Susan Haskell won at the Emmys) from Nov 2008. Y&R....Katherine's funeral? Or Collen's death? AMC.... ATWT.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 Actually in all fairness to Y&R they actually have some stuff to pick from. Some of the material surronding Katherine's death was really good, and her funeral one of them. AMC. No clue at all. The last good stuff IMO was the material surrounding Jessie's return and the remarriage of Angie and Jessie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 B&B should be in there instead of ATWT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SOAPSFOREVER Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 "4 nominees out of 7." It's probably smaller than that. I understand several show didn't bother submitting this year. It could be more like "4 nominees out of 5." What's the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 I was referring to past years. Not to today's situation. But yeah. Everyone gets a nom. Ludicrous. All one needs to know is that Kreizman is a WGA Award winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sylph Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 A sad award, what can one say? Primetime and features are a different situation. There, I think, I value it more than the Emmy. The Guild during and post strike has become a mockery, too. Just read all the blogs from established writers and Guild members. I mean - they failed to prosecute Dena Higley! Who the hell is Dena Higley to have such protection from certain actions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted December 15, 2009 Members Share Posted December 15, 2009 Wait are you saying she was writing during the strike? I'm shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
