Members Bright Eyes Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 OLTL gets the stupidest submission award this year. Idiots. Good to see Days didn't make a mistake and go the "graduation" route again. I'd like to see ATWT win this year. Other nominees, GH and Days.

Members dragonflies Posted May 3, 2010 Author Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 What was the OLTL episode? I've never seen Grey Gardens LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 Very solid Emmy bait from DAYS, B&B and GH. The rest...not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 First, you need to get off your ass and go watch the Grey Gardens documentary, and then, watch the TV Movie starring Drew Barrymore and Jessica Lange. Second, the OLTL sequence was Blair dreaming that she'd become an old maid with Dorian. Nothing remotely Emmy worthy, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 The worst part of that episode was that somehow the fantasy became all about Todd and Tea. Of those episodes I guess I would pick DAYS, or GL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted May 3, 2010 Author Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 TV Guide says that GL should have submitted something with the "steaming hot lesbians" It says AMC's submission is "visually sylish but not strong enough(the ham acting doesn't help)" Me: nor does the horrid writing It calls the Death of Baby Grace episode "a stunning and cathartic sobfest" It calls ATWT's Valentine's episode a "dippy charmer" Their best bet is going to GH which puts other soaps to shame with its artistry and sophistication, and Bold and Beautiful, which it calls "Glorious profound work that might bring Betty White a supporting nod". The world knows she's a comedy legend. B&B knows she's one hell of a drama queen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LoyaltoAMC Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 Totally agree! When I read the list, those three were the ones that jumped off the page as shoe-ins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 Was that the stunt episode where Jason walked away dramatically and Edward ran his car into that godawful character Martha Byrne played? That's about as artistic as Gallagher. B&B's episode was such blatant Emmy bait and from what I saw of it I think it was a little too obvious in that respect.

Members dragonflies Posted May 3, 2010 Author Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 Yeah that's the GH episode where Edward's car crashed into Martha Byrne's character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 Yep. This is GH's award to win. They spent the most money, they have the most compelling reel of everyone on that list. I have to disagree with you Carl. In terms of what is achieved in daytime, it was very artistic. Looked great in HD, was mostly outdoors instead of in some ridiculous studio setting, and was beautifully directed by the team with various overhead/crane shots. That alone will seal the deal and get JFP back on that stage. I certainly hope JFP's picking out her Emmy Dress and writing that acceptance speech.

Members Jonathan Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 I can see All My Children getting a nom. Angela Tessinari directed that episode and it was pretty good. I'm not advocating the storyline, but it was pretty suspenseful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
