Members Faulkner Posted January 1, 2019 Members Share Posted January 1, 2019 More decent choices than I thought there’d be, honestly. But a lot of WTFery (Morrow, Thompson, the kid who plays Oscar, et al). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members P.J. Posted January 1, 2019 Members Share Posted January 1, 2019 I've got zero problem with him heaping praise on Maura and Jon (who are some of the few earning their paycheck on that mess of a show) but wtf Benard's done that hasn't amounted to sleepwalking through scenes is beyond me. And I can only assume that Oscar is the only juvenile male left on the planet if he's this year's "best" of anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members depboy Posted January 1, 2019 Members Share Posted January 1, 2019 My scrolling finger got tired, so I gave up trying to get through all the categories. “And with that” Fairman can eff off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 1, 2019 Members Share Posted January 1, 2019 He might as well have used my categories too..... best hunk.....best hunk with the hottest chest......LOL....his list went on forever....LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AlexElizabeth Posted January 1, 2019 Members Share Posted January 1, 2019 I quickly scrolled through it and even I had to stop half way through. I didn't read any of the paragraphs he wrote. And there are way too many random categories. I'm cool with Maura getting overall best actress, and while I didn't mind Marci Miller as Abby, even I had to laugh at her being tied with Maura. Let's not get carried away. Bernard and Howarth getting honorable mentions for best actor - for what? Max Gail and Jon Lindstrom for supporting actor - I'm okay with that. Actually laughed out laugh at the kid playing Oscar getting best younger actor. HUH? This is where I stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted January 1, 2019 Members Share Posted January 1, 2019 Ron Carlivati as soap maker of the year? I stopped right after that. He has carried on reinforcing every negative stereotype non soap watchers have of soaps.. inheriting that crown from the late James Reilly, who at the one time actually had some writing talent.

Members BetterForgotten Posted January 1, 2019 Members Share Posted January 1, 2019 Fairman is nothing if not consistent with his [!@#$%^&*]-licking of Carlivati (and others). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted January 1, 2019 Members Share Posted January 1, 2019 I don’t like RC either, but compared to Mal Young, Altman/Van Etten, and Brad Bell? It’s like being star student in a remedial Home Ec class, but it’s star student nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted January 1, 2019 Members Share Posted January 1, 2019 Fairman is working for Days and developed the app. Of course, he was going to fawn all over the show. He did call out one of Days lowest moments, the Mexico plot. He was spot on with some and not so with other call outs. The YR Ash story was a major bust, starting with Sally giving Dina alzheimer's. Then Mal doing the Jack isn't an Abbot thing. Dumb. GH had the worst year though, creatively. It was all over the map which tells me that head writing by large committee (Valentini, Varni, Altman, Van Etten and Drummer) doesn't make for good soap. At lease with Ron, you get a single vision with history woven in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
