But yeah, the academy really needs to change the format for next year's ceremony. The whole structure of the ceremony was just a mess. And possibly change some rules about nominations as well.

It really is a mess -- and they've made it worse than ever.

Game shows were removed from the Daytime ceremony, and that makes no sense. But then they inserted all these instructional/reality/cooking/judge shows -- many of which air on streamers. Almost none of those shows say "daytime" to me.

Give those shows their own ceremony. Give us one with the soaps and talk shows and game shows. Make it a 90-minute ceremony. I don't even care if it's another no budget thing on You Tube. Just give us something that doesn't reek of incompetence.

    With all the problems of the Daytime Emmys -- and they are many -- I will say it's nice that we're not here today to blast them for ignoring Beyond the Gates. I was worried GATES would get only a few

  • Not a fan of his either, but I'm glad to see credit where credit's due. MVJ is an inspiration to every person of color who dreams of creating, writing and running their own show. Really pulling for

    I never pay the Emmys much attention, but in my opinion Daphnee Duplaix gives the most confident, nuanced performance of all the females I've seen on soaps this year. And she's not mentioned at all.

I am so thrilled for Tamara Tunie, who more than deserved that honor.

Her wig, on the other hand...?

Four Daytime Emmy wins!!!! and every one belongs to a team that gave their heart to this show.

Congratulations to our queen @msttunie , @ambyrmichelle_ , and to our incredible hair and makeup team, led by @symartmakeup and @hairbywankaya and our phenomenal lighting team led by @lightningvinnie @massivethevictor

The people on camera, the people behind it, the hands that create the hair and makeup, the light, the clothes, the sets, the sound, the stories—and the countless details most people never see. Every day, you bring your talent, your care, and a piece of yourself to Beyond the Gates. Those pieces become something bigger than any one of us. They become a family, a world, and a story our audience can feel.

These wins belong to all of us. To our cast and crew, to the people who believed in this show, and to every fan who welcomed us into your homes and hearts: thank you. You make the long days meaningful and the milestones unforgettable.

I’m proud of what we’ve built together. And last night, we got to celebrate it together. ❤️

Makeup: @darienisaac
Hair: @reidcheryl01
👗: Designed by my amazing son @acti0n.j4x and brought to life by our phenomenal head seamstress @tjfconcepts2

Vincent Steib's title at BTG is "Director of Photography"

November 18, 2024

LightningVinnie (Vincent Staub)
Sept. 30, 2025
"Year 2 BTG with my camera crew."

Vincent Steib also works with (or used to work with) Lighting at BTG--
because he shared the Lighting Direction Emmy with BTG Lighting Director Victor Bland, for Episode 104 (Articulettes reunion).

This is Vincent Steib's third Emmy --
he previously won a Daytime Emmy in 1984
for Outstanding Achievement in Technical Direction/Electronic Camera/Video Control --
for the Los Angeles Olympics.
And he has been nominated several times for GH lighting,
and won the Lighting Emmy in 2011 for GH.


The Emmy announcer says that Victor Bland is accepting the award, and the chyron says it's Bland speaking ...
but it's actually Vincent Staub giving the acceptance speech,
with Bland standing next to him.

Watching the show on YouTube now. Is it wrong that I wondered if Paul Telfer had on underwear under that kilt?

Oh, look. I guess Jill Farren Phelps really did get her Gold Circle Award. She's wearing it around town.

You're doubling and tripling down on your claim? Even though you can't provide a single source or a single bit of evidence?

Sorry, these awards are not handed out in private at some secret ceremony 😂
