Emerson Brooks (Erica's captor, Ben on ALL MY CHILDREN)

WTF? Are we really that low in daytime?

Yvette Freeman (Dr. Lewis, B&B]

How did she get a nomination over Debbi Morgan? How did ANY of them get one over Debbi?

Oh my god, the lack of relevence is just devastating.

Referencing SON's episode counts, Tatyana Ali was in a whopping seven episodes of Y&R last year, and Yvette Freeman was in five episodes of B&B. It is absolutely disgusting that the NAACP felt that they were more deserving of being nominated than Debbi Morgan, who basically carried her show all the way through to its finale.

F!ck 'em.

Watch Tatyana Ali and the guy from AMC win.

The NAACP needs to stop kissing the Bells' asses. Bill is dead, and this ain't the 90s.

How did all of these people even get nominated? They were barely on and Tatyana Ali won last year, again beating Debbi. Do they watch the soaps?

Good Lawd. Please get rid of this category.

mod please merge with the other thread. The noms are a complete joke.

Those nominations are LAUGHABLE!! Texas Battle?? LMAO. James Reynolds? What in the hell did he do?! Congrats to the guy who played Ben on AMC but what about Darnell? Where's Debbi's nomination?

All they do is nominate people from Y&R and rotate whoever else they feel like. For much of the past 20 years Victoria Rowell and Tonya Lee Williams rotated winning actress and Shemar Moore and Kristoff St. John rotated winning actor. Its always been a joke IMO.

Just realized Debbi and soon Darnell will be on Y&R so they are a shoe in for next year.

At this rate, they'll be down to nominating extras next year. I've voted in the process when I was a member, the choices were slim then too. It's borderline embarassing nominating people who are barely visible on a show.

Tatyana Ali, Y&R

Yvette Freeman, B&B (Stephanie's oncologist)

Emerson Brookes, AMC (Jane's accomplice)

For starters.

This is so pressed and embarrassing. I realize that these noms and wins mean nothing to non-soap fans who may catch the telecast but it just looks trifling to those of us who are. And then to not even include Debbi and Darnell after this year's s/l??

Exactly. And I know they could have nominated some latinos like Jordi Vilasuso or Florencia Lozano, but it is what it is.
