Really?!?! Terrell Ransom and Theo haven't even had a story to be nominated. Blake Berris was not supporting his story, he was leading it.

YES at Lauren Boles. I hope she wins! Damn, it must really be slim pickings for the Emmy's if Ciara, Chase and Theo are all on there.

LMAO at True O'Brien.

Chrishell honey, they don't give out Emmy's for squinting.

How is the category decided? Does the actor submit in a certain category or does the academy decide?

Each show has a vote and the top ones get in the categories then pannels view scenes and vote for the top 5/6 per category

LOL at the GH pre-noms. Michelle Stafford was supporting?! On what [!@#$%^&*] planet! Dying at Haley and Tequan being on there with next to zero airtime but Tequan is a great actor so I kind of hope he gets a nomination regardless.

Well, with four soaps, the pickings are CLEARLY slim.

I just dont get Billy Miller's YR nom. He was there three weeks in January 2014. Isnt there an episode limit an actor needs to appear in to be nominated?

The actor decides the category they want to submit though, right?

Even though these are just pre-noms, awards and nods seem to always go to the same people time and time again for the simple fact that they already won one. And to be honest, they all get judged based on what, a few episodes? Clips? I don't find that to be a valid way to judge someone's performance but they clearly can't watch a year's worth ... the awards are flawed. They always have been and always will be.

Yes

Just looked Billy Miller did 14 episodes of YR in 2014. How was he nominated? Especially as LEAD?

Because the cast likes him and misses him...I guess? That's all I got.

I believe so, Kelly Thiebaud was recently complaining about it on Twitter
