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

And LMAO at her ass not making the list.

What did Tyler Christopher do? Happy for him & would love to see him nom'd.

Yes

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

At least he was a lead actor while he was there. I'm more baffled over Peggy McCay as lead actress for Days of Our Lives. She did 26 episodes all year, and I daresay she wasn't leading even one of them.

Off the top of my head, she had that and she had her goodbye material with Ali Sweeney. She's the definition of a solid supporting player. I guess they set a precedent last year when she was nominated for the Alzheimer's material (which wasn't really "lead," either), and there seems to be some unspoken thing that older = lead. It's odd.

I haven't read this thread yet, but just commenting on the pre- noms from WE LOVE SOAPS:

Peggy McKay should be leading the Supporting Actress Leader, her speech at the wedding is a shoe in, but she hasn't been a lead actress in many years. No disrespect to her, but supporting is her category.

Heather Tom should be supporting this year. She didn't have lead actress material.

Billy Miller was barely on Y&R this year...WTF w/that nomination?

While the Staff and Broadway legend Kelly Sullivan have been here before, was someone OTP(on the pipe) to nominate them this year???????

Sean Carrigan is nice to look at, but they may as well have put Paevey up for an Emmy!

True O'Brien is truly Beige, and Connor Kalopsis is barely on...these two ?

Wow no TK for B&B? He did some great work after Ridge was dropped in the water. Glad Linsey is nom'd

Michelle Stafford won her first emmy as supporting. They didn't want to make it so top heavy in lead. She doesn't deserve the nod. IMO the lead actress category it's tough I honestly see Maura West, Alison Sweeney, Gina Tognoni, Heather Tom and Laura Wright. I honestly think while Alison is the huge favorite watch out for Gina as thst scene with her in the living room confronting Jack about Kelly was everything emmy voters love. Would anyone be shocked if Gina wins for this? I am not a huge Laura Wright but she wss great during the wedding scenes

SMDH at this pre-nom list. There are so many people that don't even deserve to be on here. Why is Missy Egan, Tracey Bregman, or Jessica Collins in Lead Actress? By no way was she lead last year. Sharon Case, who shockingly isn't on any list, was. But not those three. Did Sharon not submit herself?

And don't get me started on Amelie Heinle....

This award show is such hot garbage. I expect the final list to be even worse.

When it comes to awards and soaps, the British Soap Awards gets me more excited than the EMMYS.

The actors submit what category that they want, which is why some lead actors submit supporting actor cause they feel they have a better chance of winning.

I figured this would happen once we were down to 4 soaps. Some people have no gotdamn business being on this list, but if they weren't there, who would be?

Days prenoms suck as much as the show does

For reals. Terrible turnout for DAYS.

Ciara Brady & Theo Carver for the wins!

I love seeing Ali Sweeney, Blake Berris, Lauren Boles, and Casey Moss on this list!! But where the heck is James Scott!!

He was the leasing male the entire year until EJ's death in October! And I agree about Peggy-- older does NOT equal "Lead Actress" ... She had some great scenes this year at the WilSon wedding and Sami's exit but she did not lead any of her episodes- to say that she is anywhere near Ali Sweeny in terms of story influence. Soap gods please let Ciara Boles win!!
