Members Contessa Donatella Posted February 28, 2023 Members Share Posted February 28, 2023 I really think I saw him stretch even further than he has before with Laura yesterday & bless Genie's heart, I'd swear she pulled back to give him room to do it! He cried. He partially cried. He screamed! Twice! Said he was sorry & just kept on rolling! I heard that neither he nor Taby will be eligible for Younger Actor Emmy by the new rules, whatever they are. I think both of them have reels! And, with all that high stakes family drama he still found room for nuance. WTG! FTW! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted February 28, 2023 Members Share Posted February 28, 2023 NC could win in any category he submits in. Including Lead. He’s that good. (Especially with the smaller competition these days.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted February 28, 2023 Members Share Posted February 28, 2023 The younger performer category is now for 18 and younger which makes it a juvenile/child award. Last year it was lowered from 25 to 21. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted February 28, 2023 Members Share Posted February 28, 2023 Thnx! Now it makes sense. It probably should have been Juvenile for a long time when you think about it. So NC & Taby will have to go for Support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 1, 2023 Members Share Posted March 1, 2023 I am real worried. My only good feeling about it is because Liz looked so freaking hot in her sweater & pencil skirt at the cop shop meeting!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted March 1, 2023 Members Share Posted March 1, 2023 The problem is there aren't enough worthy under-18s on the soaps to make this meaningful. They'll be giving an Emmy to someone we barely see. Ridiculous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted March 1, 2023 Members Share Posted March 1, 2023 That's stupid. Who are they going to nominate? The lispy little girl who plays Violet? No thanks. Thursday was the biggest bump in the road since I returned. Don't ever let that happen again. I even tolerated Willow Wailing today. Sasha and Willow have a real Perils of Pauline competition going on. If Michael ever dies (fingers crossed) they'll be tied! This whole Trina paternity story would be better if Donnell Turner were remotely good. He's awful, not as bad as the actress who plays Jordan (she's certainly meeting her guarantees this month) but not far behind! Yesterday's scenes with Laura and Spencer were excellent. The moment when Spencer started to cry and Genie's started crying in synch with him...good shît. And man am I happy to see Laura treated like the matriarch and show centerpiece she is. Despite other soaps letting multiple people over 60 lead story, Laura is the only true matriarch left on daytime. Isn't that NUTS? And sad? Alley Mills is Heather to me, she took ownership of the role and ran with it. This show lucked out with her and Adam Huss coming in and pinch hitting the way that they did, coming in the climax of stories and doing fantastic work. Luckily for them the work was pretty top notch too. I hope Heather is gone for a good long time but I'll miss AM. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 1, 2023 Members Share Posted March 1, 2023 (edited) Violet is just intolerable. Laura is the most proactive mayor in history lol Edited March 1, 2023 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 1, 2023 Members Share Posted March 1, 2023 (edited) Chavez has come a long way in a short time. He was electric with Genie, and as others have noted it is wonderful to see her connecting with performers who give her their all just as she always does. (Tyler and Tony Geary had their ups and downs, though I do think Tony always brought it with her despite his other behavior; so did JJ, even when the material got very ugly.) I am all for Molly growing up and becoming an ADA but like others I go back and forth on taking her seriously. I do think Hailey Pullos is capable of more and I don't dislike the role for her, but the show has such a superficial investment in Molly as is.

Members Juliajms Posted March 1, 2023 Members Share Posted March 1, 2023 Please register in order to view this content Yes. So is Willow's. Amelia was smiling the day she was born. Also agree that this show does not GAF about Molly. Sadly, I don't either. I don't know what they could do to make this actress in that role compelling in any way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 1, 2023 Members Share Posted March 1, 2023 I think it's a good role on the canvas for her and potentially workable. I just don't think anyone has bothered challenging her with real material in over ten years. If she falters fine but I might try it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted March 1, 2023 Members Share Posted March 1, 2023 Yeah it would be nice if they gave Molly something to do (as well as Kristina) since they are finally giving Alexis much more to do, but alas... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 1, 2023 Members Share Posted March 1, 2023 (edited) The beat with Heather and Esme where she stumbled over her words as she explained that sometimes wanting to be a mother 'comes later' for some women was brilliant. She played a wealth of Heather's long and sordid history going back to the original Steven Lars/P.J. adoption caper in that sequence (a great deal of which is available to watch on YT with both Mary O'Brien and Robin Mattson in the role and which drives this further home), and you could see it in her face and eyes. It hit much more genuine for me than what Carlivati did with Robin Mattson's Heather early in his run, a trick he would often go to with villains - he'd give you 'odd couple' pairings of unlikely characters, have them voice their anxieties or feelings and then unexpectedly, inexplicably hug and emotionally bond. Robin's Heather had a scene like that with Rafe Kovich Jr. of all people where he bemoaned the loss of his family, and suddenly he and Heather were hugging and bonding. It was totally unearned and I didn't buy any of it. The next scene it was back to Heather's usual psycho hijinks. Pathos doesn't work like that. It has to come from somewhere beyond just a few soppy lines between random acquaintances. Edited March 1, 2023 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
