Members Cheap21 Posted February 5, 2015 Members Share Posted February 5, 2015 Has HT ever been lead? Every year she gets a lead nom and Im left scratching my head bc Katie is most defintely a supporting character. Her stories are rarely about her. HT is good with the reaction scenes but she hardly leads story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jo.frank88 Posted February 5, 2015 Members Share Posted February 5, 2015 I was worried James Scott may not have submitted himself. That's a shame- he had some great material in the fake affair reveal with Ali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted February 5, 2015 Members Share Posted February 5, 2015 I actually think the system works for better or worse. It's the same as the Primetime Emmy's where the person can select a single episode to be judged upon. I personally like the idea of the actor and actress picking one tape for a nomination, and then another tape to be considered for a win. I would say throw in another random tape from a random day to be considered for as well as the other two tapes, but I think you get to a point where multiple tapes just dilute the process. I think that is more or less because tradition kind of turned lead actress into that because soaps were very matriarchal so it stood to reason that the best leading actresses were veteran actresses who led story for multiple years. From the pre-noms this year that may change a bit, but honestly I am fine with Lead Actress being more or less defined as best "Veteran Actress on a soap", because a lot of younger actresses don't deserve to be in contention a lot of the time. James Scott doesn't submit himself anymore because he felt pretty sore about not being nominated for Lexie's death, which he considered to be some of his best work, so he no longer submits. He would have been a fantastic choice for Lead Actor though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted February 6, 2015 Members Share Posted February 6, 2015 I never understand why John McCook is always nominated for a lead, when Eric only appears like twice every other month...Though I guess he had some scenes with Ridge after the fall, but still.... Billy Miller is one of their pets so they are gonna make sure he gets to pick the soap he wants to be nominated for regardless of how many episodes he was in.... Jacob Young IMO is more of a leading actor... I have to admit, the story is terrible (and on the back burner now apparently...no surprise there..) but I'm sort of glad Tracey Bregman got a leading actress nom, but please.....do not submit those scenes of you laughing after Michael told you he had cancer...

Members Kendall Posted February 19, 2015 Members Share Posted February 19, 2015 I think Maura West, Alison Sweeney, One of the B&B ladies, and Gina Tognoni will be nominated in that order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
