I figured Jacob Young would get a nod. Didn't he have that cancer storyline? Also, the stuff towards the end of last year was good also.

So Bree Willamson got an Emmy nomination for some of the worst work of her career, and ever on OLTL.

No wonder OLTL kept vomiting up the sicko MPD stories for her.

Congratulations also to Crystal Chappell (Carly), who received a nomination as executive producer of the web series "Venice", which was nominated in the Special Class Short Format category.

Didn't see that and damn sure didn't know this category existed.

I'll go ahead and be an !@#$%^&*] and say since I thought OLTL was a giant turd last year, I have no problem with its lack of nominations in the drama or writing categories.

Laura Wright? Well, I guess Katherine Kelly Lang will finally get hers next year....

What did RPG do last year to warrant lead? The story where he was lost from Melmac and bonded with an ordinary Earth family was canceled.

LOL

There's very few reasons to get excited about these nominations. The Y&R love.......

I'm surprised and happy Doug Davidson and Tricia Cast were nominated. The only two in that category, besides Nancy Lee Grahn, who are actually supporting actors. I will be pleased if Davidson somehow beats Chompers, who gave up on his acting a long time ago, IMO. None of the others in that category are supporting actors, and several of them, like JJ, are nominated based on what they were a long time ago, not their work now.

Wow, I thought Jerry ver Dorn was a shoe-in. The writing was absurd, but he sold it in spades. Brittany Allen LMAO.

Is there a list anywhere telling us which episodes the nominations were based on? I am curious to see how DOOL got a writing nomination. For GH, I have no idea what MB, LW, NLG or JT could possible be nominated for.

Strassers' gonna be ticked! But oh well. She's never been overly liked by the cast and, especially crew.

Britanny Allen as Potted Plant Chandler You can tell they were scraping the bottom of the barrel withthat one considering theres only 3 nominees total

Im glad Debbie Morgan and MCE got nominated. They so deserve a win. I cant beleive That Woman got nominated on GH though

No Jerry ver Dorn is a BIG FAIL of massive proportions

I'm thrilled for Michael Park! There's a sweet story that Maura picked his reel and campaigned for him, so that takes some of the sting out of her absence, not that it still doesn't blow.

I am surprised neither Trent or ESS got a nod.

And Julie Who-Did-She-Get-Billy-To-Blow Pinson....UGH. Just UGH! I almost would have rather seen Terri Columbino. Almost.

Congrats to both Melissa Claire Egan and Debbi Morgan!!! Hope they both win!

Way to go Colleen!!!!

I'm just going to ignore the rest for now.

Add MP and TC and the rest suck.

No Eric Sheffer Stevens??? F U C K YOU AL:L.....GO TO HELL ALL OF YOU AS SOPHIA WOULD SAY!!!

YAY for Colleen, Tricia,

But.....

¿¿¿DONDE ESTAN ERIC SHEFFER STEVENS???

A big what the [!@#$%^&*] ...Yeah where is he??
