Members ajsp35801 Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 That rape ruined ATWT for me as well. I still watched somewhat and kept up with the stories but it was not the same. Well, let's not pretend that black actresses can do what white actresses can. It's one thing to say someone deserved an award or was robbed when they had the body of work to prove it, it just comes off as sour grapes when you say it and they didn't have the work to back it up.

Members cassadine1991 Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 She definitely deserved to have been nominated, she without a doubt had great material especially last year, it's a shame she decided not to submit herself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapsnstuds Posted February 5, 2014 Members Share Posted February 5, 2014 Timothy D. Stickney was perhaps the best supporting actor on One Life to Live in the 1990's. He was in a lot of story link clunkers yet always made them watchable. The fact that he never even received a nomination is criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted February 5, 2014 Members Share Posted February 5, 2014 Thanks for sharing this list! gives me a better break down of the history of which AA actors/actresses won/were nominated..... Was Kristoff st.John really nominated for supporting actor for Generations in 1990 then switched to younger the following year, or is that a typo?...... It really is a shame they stupidly overlooked the Nathan/Olivia aids story and Tonya Lee Williams and Victoria Rowell didn't win for it.....I bet they felt like ripping their hair out when CK won in 2012......ugh I was never more pissed off...

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted February 5, 2014 Members Share Posted February 5, 2014 I remember that ep like it was yesterday. Spellbinding. 2011, 2012 (AND 2014!) SHOULD HAVE been Debbi's years to take it! Still completely disgusted Laura Wrong won over her (and 'Lish!) in 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted February 6, 2014 Members Share Posted February 6, 2014 The Primetime Emmys have never had a Black actress win for a leading role in a drama series either, although Black actresses have won Primetime Emmys for leading roles in a comedy series and movie/miniseries.

Members Chris B Posted February 6, 2014 Members Share Posted February 6, 2014 I don't even want to get into the Primetime Emmy's. Black actresses are lucky to even get a nomination, let alone a win for a Golden Globe or Primetime Emmy. Just off the top of my head I was always horrified when Regina King didn't get nominated for Southland. In general that show should've been an Emmy darling, but how the hell did they not nominate her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted February 6, 2014 Members Share Posted February 6, 2014 And then people want to complain about awards show that specifically cater to minorities/people of color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
