3RD ANNUAL SON DAYTIME EMMY DREAM BALLOT

[DRW50]

I didn't realize Shelly Hennig was so popular.

Apparently Maura and Michael are very nervous and excited about being on your ballot...

[juniorz1]

I was hoping Lesli Kay would sneak through too. She really won me over with her performances on ATWT last year.

LOL, why do you say that? I thought you meant their pictures, but if you do, I still don't get it.

[DRW50]

They both look so flush, like they're turning red at the thought of your ballot.

I was hoping Lesli would get through - to me she did some of her best work last year and was the only one keeping that Molly/Holden/Lily non-triangle going.

[juniorz1]

Agree- I too felt Lesli gave the strongest performances of her career last year on ATWT, though I admit to never having seen her cancer story on B&B.

[AllMyDaysatGH]

Thanks for doing that, juniorz.

I was the only one to vote for Alicia. OFCOURSE!! Her amazing work last November was ignored, oh well!! I hope to see her name on the official ballot this Wednesday because she deserves it along with Debbi.

[Cheap21]

Alicia was barely on in 2010. She spent most of the year on maternity leave and when she returned she was NOT a lead actress. She spent her time playing a very supportive role to Ryan and Greenlee's story. 2010 was not Alicia's year at all and I dont think she deserves to be nominated. Maybe had she submitted her name into Supporting Actress,but Lead? No way

[Soapsuds]

He's a good actor. I voted for him. But I think all the insane airtime with Liberty really had viewers hating him....lol

I voted for Lesli Kay as well. I thought she really refreshed the show up when she returned.

[Khan]

But of course! She was BLIND! And PREGNANT!! And DYING!!!

(Well, no, she wasn't dying. But she might as well have been, the way they were writing that story.)

[P.J.]

I just don't get the love for Eddie Alderson. The kid is flat with Vulcan ears, and combs his hair to accentuate it. How does anyone not stare at that?

While the Parker/Gabe/Libby thing sucked, MH always shined with older cast members.

[Soapsuds]

I think they compare him to his sister and he wins...lol

I thought Eddie was a better actor when he was younger.

I hope MH does get a nomination. He does deserve it. He does very well with MW and MP. They really all shine together in scenes.

[All My Shadows]

IMO, it was a good story throughout most of 2010. The only thing I hated was how overly reliant they were on using David as a scapegoat.

I think he's a good, natural actor, so all of that other stuff doesn't really matter to me.

[DRW50]

Did I vote for Liz Hubbard? I can't remember. I would have loved seeing her under supporting actress. She doesn't need accolades, she's proved herself for many many years, but I was so delighted that the last year of ATWT finally utilized her again and realized how she could effortlessly move all sorts of stories, like she did in the old and better days.

[Soapsuds]

Liz is fabulous!! She never disappoints. I could see her in any scene. She made some of the worst actors the last year look decent.

[P.J.]

You couldn't vote for Liz, she wasn't pre-nom'd.

[Vizion]

I didn't know where to put this, but it didn't really seem worthy of it's own post either
