Members MichaelGL Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 It sucks that DAYS was shut out, and that DAYS is associated with camp, as I think it does a disservice to some of its actors. Billy Flynn, Dan F, and AZ all have put in phenomenal work not just this past year, but for Flynn and Zucker, at multiple occasions in the past. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 Well, that is a thing for DAYS! They have always had SOME actors who were doing superlative work. So, in a sense, this is ongoing. But, you are certainly correct that a disservice is done them because the style, the quality in general, the writing, the problems with the writing, etc. all conspire to cheat excelling actors out of any acclaim. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 I saw this last night; they're both wearing the same dress. Hilarious to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 (edited) I'm thrilled as well! DVD is a national treasure in my book. He might need a little more assistance getting around these days, but there's still that twinkle in his eye and spring in his step. AFAIC, he's one of the last of the breed of entertainers who exude talent, warmth and class. (And no, it's not lost on me that even 98-year-old DVD looked to be in better health onstage than 61-year-old Frank Valentini.)

Members Contessa Donatella Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 (edited) Things that I have been told about Frank by people who work for him. By Me. 1. He is as healthy as a horse. 2. He is naturally quite pale. 3. He suffers from stage fright. 4. He works himself so hard that by end of week, Friday show done, he is completely exhausted. 5. Last year, Emmys, he had Covid, but didn't know it till Monday morning. There is no 6. And I am not a Frank apologist. I post loudly & often about the buck stopping at his door & list the things I think he should be doing that he is not doing. I am as critical of him as almost anyone else. Here's the thing. I could care less how odd Frank might seem at the mic. Brilliant people are often quite odd. I am not saying he is brilliant. What I want is for him to produce a better show. Then he can be as odd as he pleases. Just give us more edge, heart, pay-off, stakes, ..

Members TEdgeofNight Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 Frank Valentini should let someone else on the team accept the award if he's gonna act so strange and can't speak. He's just asking for criticism by being so odd. And the people making excuses for him don't help him, either. He works so hard that he can't get excited on a Friday night. SMH. Some people will believe and repeat everything they hear no matter how ridiculous it sounds. I agree that 98 year old DVD has more life in him than Frank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 They could have completely dropped that cooking segment stupidity and just shown clips for the lead actor/actress and drama 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 I disagree with all of this; it was nice to see something other than black suits at an event. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 (edited) If he looks that bad producing such a shitty-ass show every week, imagine how he'd look if he worked so hard to produce a show that's actually watchable, lol? You might not be too far from the truth, lol. That's always been my number-one issue with Frank's work as EP on GH and OLTL: what is his style as a producer beyond bloated casts, sluggish storylines and obnoxious child "actors"? What has he done for both shows that's been good yet uniquely him? Edited June 9 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted June 9 Members Share Posted June 9 Absolutely. The Daytime Emmys can serve as a promotional event for each of the soaps as much as anything else...so it boggles me that each of the soaps didn't insist on having a clip package played throughout the night for Best Drama Series...I really miss the good old days when the show featured clip packages around various themes (couples, fashion, catfights) - they really add to the production quality of the show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
