Daytime Emmy Nominations! Congrats you ATWT fans, looks your soap got well-deserved recognition while OLTL got what it deserved, zilch!
I was surprised that MB got shut out, I thought his work on Carly's losing their baby was outstanding. (NT) -- Tuggs, 11:48:46 03/14/01 Wed
Wow! Not surprised about OLTL being shut out, but I am about GH- there was some amazing work this year. Particularly with MB and SB. And, petty as it may sound, even though some of the actors may have done some good work on OLTL, I'm glad the show was shut out of the big categories- proves a point.

MB wasn't shut out. Maurice declined to put his name in. He didn't think he had two good episodes. And ER (Bianca) *was* nominated, at least according to the list I saw on Soapzone. And so were JD (Leo) and RB (Greenlee)--cool! And I just started watching ATWT again (it was my FIRST soap from like 20 years ago!) and it was awesome! I love SB and think she always does wonderful work, but I am not sure that MB and SB bring out the best in each other, acting wise. (NT) -- Monica, 12:51:52 03/14/01 Wed
Monica.... thanks for the news about ER, she certainly deserves that nomination, moreso than Lucci does imo! ER is a VERY talented young actress who has carried her storyline extremely well! (NT) -- jackie, 13:11:33 03/14/01 Wed
Thanks Monica, personally I love MB's work and I could have helped him pick out several episodes. The bits I've read, like any backstage politics, sounds like daytime emmy's nomination process are a bit screwy. From what I understand an actor or a producer can submit episodes for consideration. But if an actor does not submit, can a producer override that actor and send in the 2 episodes for consideration if the actor doesn't want it? (NT) -- Tuggs, 13:37:01 03/14/01 Wed
Wow! I was hoping ATWT would do well in nominations this year, but considering all the "politicking" that sometimes goes on with this stuff, I wasn't so sure they would get their just-deserved kudos! I'm thrilled to see that they DID! Martha Byrne is doing an EXCELLENT job playing dual roles, so happy she was recognized for it, along with all the other actors on this wonderful soap! Mucho "kudos" to my fave show, the actors AND their fabulous new writer! (NT) -- jackie, 13:07:57 03/14/01 Wed
I've been TRYING to watch ATWT for years. There was one episode that had me relax my remote finger, Lucinda and Iva finding out about the babies. 2:00 hr I have GH, GL, ATWT, and Passions, the GL held my attention the whole hour Friday, a first in a long time. Jackie this is great news!! TIIC will see that NEW MEAT don't stink!!!!! -- jane, 13:25:59 03/14/01 Wed
jane.... yeah, imo GL ain't too shabby right now either! Of course, I love almost anything the Labines write! To me, both P&G soaps are doing well and ICAM, let's hope ATWT's wracking up in Emmy nominations this year will BUY the rest of the industry a freakin' CLUE! (NT) -- jackie, 17:46:59 03/14/01 Wed
