Lindsey and Kristen but no Kelly Sullivan?

LMAO

EVERYONE is forgetting about Doug Davidson (like they always do) in the Lead Actor category. He had some SERIOUSLY good material with the climax of the Ricky storyline and his work in that episode alone FAR surpasses everyone else in the category. He's never won, he's due, and I think this is his year.

We agree

Point me to the link. POINT ME TO THE LINK!

So far at least, I don't think there is a link.

I said Susan was probably more thrilled for KKL than anyone else because for years now, whenever she's been nominated, she's always said that she didn't understand why KKL hadn't been nominated yet. And when she won her Emmy in 2000, she singled out KKL by saying, "Next year for you, Kelly."

If a new quote comes up though, I'll certainly let you know.

OMG!! LMAO! LOL! LMFAO! So deserved!

No.

If anyone besides Jacqueline MacInnes Woods wins from that category I will be done w/life forever

HHK is a good actress. I think she will win.

This really is one of the worst lists ever! Sure, choices were limited as there were only 5 soaps eligible. But why only 4 nominees for Best Actor & Actress? All 5 soaps eligible were nominated! Finola couldn't get that 5th spot?? (Or any other actress omitted).

For anyone who can enlighten us, and think that Y&R block voting is the reason for so many nominations, a recent TV Guide footnote says that voting rules were changed so that Y&R block voting can't happen. What were those changes? How did Y&R score so many noms?

Y&R had the better actors out of the crop imo.

Although I like CM, the Young Lead Actor Emmy should go to ME - YR's Fen. He was extremely impressive in the Bullying storyline. The boy deserves an award for his performance as the amazingly disturbed, creepy, and over the edge teen bully. That storyline and his performance put Days' so called bullying storyline to shame.

The only one from the Days' crew that I'm rooting for is AZ for Best Supporting Actress.

I Love YR's Adam Newman, but just like Days FS, outside of angry scenes, MM's line delivery is generally flat. So, I'm hoping GH's JT gets Lead Actor

BB's HT and SF were both great in their storylines, but I hope HT gets the Lead Actress prize.

Not really impressed beyond the pale with any of the nominees in the Best Supporting Actor or Young Lead Actress categories.

For the win:

Lead Actor - Doug Davidson

Lead Actress - Susan Flannery

Supporting Actor - Jeff Branson

Supporting Actress - Jessica Collins

Younger Actor - Bryton James

Younger Actress - Jacqui Mac

Glaring omissions:

Sharon Case

Emme Rylan

Alley Mills

Remember when this was a fierce category with the likes of Kimberly McCullough, Sarah Brown, Heather Tom, etc. Sigh.

Scott Clifton in Supporting? In what definition is he supporting when the whole damn show revolves around his character Liam? He belongs in lead now.

I'm thrilled KKL finally got a nom though.

I guess he's on a lot but he never feels like lead to me. He's supporting KM & JMW - who really belongs in that lead slot.

I agree tho he should be in lead given his airtime and story. But Jesus if KKIL is supporting then everyone is. Such a desperation move on her part. It's sad cz she deserves a nom - but not like this.

First off - here's to OLTL taking home awards for both Best Drama and Best Wriring. They kicked ass their final weeks (and months) and those last few episodes on ABC were pure GOLD! They deserve this!!

Congrats to KKL - a very long awaited and deserved nomination.

Also hoping that Susan Flannery will take home another emmy for this finale event. Well deserved.

As for my show Days, I don't really feel they were snubbed. 2012 was a so-so year at best. The actors/actresses who got nom's deserved them. Chandler and Freddie worked hard and put up some quality material in 2012 and I'm proud to see my boys up against each other in younger actor. AZ is always a top notch actress and deserves her nom. IMO Days didn't have any outstanding "leading actor" or outstanding "supporting actor" actors to present. Not that their actors are bad.. but nothing from 2012 really stands out as Emmy worthy... (I think it would have been awesome to see James Reynold's in the supporting actor list for his Lexie death scenes - he rocked those.. I know he wasn't a pre-nom..just saying)..As for Peggy in lead actress... don't get me wrong- I love Peggy.. and she did have some good quality storyline with the alzheimer's material - and she did well with it. I would have no problem in seeing her as a nom. in supporting actress - but in my 16 years of watching Days- Peggy has never been a lead actress. It's not who the character of Caroline is.. so while I congratulate her on the nomination.. I don't think its where she belongs..Otherwise, for Days - I feel the nom. list is pretty appropriate and deserved.

Actually, James Reynolds WAS a pre-nom.

This category has been weak for years. Yes you always had the standout few but overall it's a weak category.

its sad that they cant just do away with at this point, but with coward lead actress going for supporting just to get the gold and lead basically being veteran actress, they stand no chance.

JMW should absolutely be nomd for lead over Flannery, Tom, KKL, everyone. She is the lead of that show and damn good at it.

Jumping for joy about Peggy McCay! Say what you want about the category; her reel obviously had enough good work from the Alzheimer's to get her nominated and she deserves it!

Also happy about Chandler Massey and Freddie Smith.

This category has been weak for years. Yes you always had the standout few but overall it's a weak category.

It really only became weak during the late 00's (around 2008 and onward). There were plenty of actresses who were nominated for this award or won it who were great actresses. I would say the weakest link of the Emmy's has always been Younger Actor by far though. However as the years pass by all of the categories have gotten weaker and weaker. I remember when Supporting Actress used to be the best category because you would get all kinds of actresses of different kinds with different styles and methods of acting now it feels like a token sorority trophy. Lead is a joke now as well.
