Congrats GH but honestly the Lead Actress trophy belonged to Nancy Lee Grahn – totally robbed !

Please get award show back on TV. Even a cable network would help.

I thought April Fool’s Day had passed a month ago. GH (aka Mob Central) actually won for “Outstanding Drama Series”?!?! What a colossal joke! There’s nothing at all that’s “outstanding” about what’s currently seen on that hot-mess of a soap with those two old out-of-touch hack women as the head writers. That’s why these daytime awards cannot be taken seriously at all anymore. No wonder they were taken off broadcast TV for good. To me, these awards have been completely watered down. With only four daytime dramas left, it stands to reason that there’s now a much greater chance of… Read more »

Excellent show- loved the tribute to Agnes Nixon and seeing Susan Lucci also the Bold and Beautiful tribute and the singing was great, too. Totally delighted with Gina Tognoni’s well-deserved win. I was surprised that Chuck Pratt won best writing. He did bring a lot of explosive storylines, and I see that can make a good emmy reel, but things were constantly happening-again, exciting-but always left me wondering why, how, what??
Great work on the tributes, MF, also the red carpet coverage was fun to watch and appreciate the hard work that went into the entire evening.

Surprised by a lot of these winners.

Kate totally deserved her Emmy.

Scott and Gina are great actors, but I am surprised they won.

Don’t watch GH so I am partial to the other three soaps. I do think B&B should have won best show, but there’s always next year!

Congratulations to everyone.

the orchestra can take leave baubles and champagne blitz… leftover no bells and whistles , forever Laura Wright did not – win – YES YES! and more YES ( p-a-r-t-y) Frank / Jean / Shelley are the ones responsible for this mess. they rely so heavily on the Corinthos Clan…. that it fell…. crashed… and is left all over the place as I’ve posted of late Sonny , Carly, and Michael are caricatures of themselves. they are better of in one room piling it on. no need to lock the door … they wouldn’t know the difference this has just… Read more »

Biggest head scratcher moment for me Clifton best actor his reel was the weakest and it is not just my opinion everybody is having a OMG moment!

I don’t believe that Lexi deserved the win. She wasn’t that outstanding in my opinion.

I’m happy with gh winning best show and I’m happy Lexi ainsworth won for playing Kristina, it’s well deserved.

Gina! Gina! Gina!!!!!

Both Nancy Lee Grahn and Finola Hughes were robbed! And what funny is….all the winners got their start on ABC Daytime. Says a lot doesn’t it?

Fun fact: Phyllis is the only character to win lead actress for two different actresses. That was daytime history.

I miss Kate Mansi as Abigail! She was so deserving of this award!

Watched the show on Facebook and had no issues other than the feed froze once. I was skeptical about the whole streaming online thing, but my hat off to the producers, thought it was a well produced show for the most part. Although, I think Mary Hart might still be giving her speech, lol. I wrote on here the other night about how I didn’t think GH would win Best Show with the episodes they submitted, the hostage crisis at the church where Sonny jumped out of the wheelchair to save the day. I was wrong. Still not a fan… Read more »

Billy Flynn and/or Peter Bergman should have gotten Lead Actor. Scott is a very good actor and I know he puts out very good work, but Billy had an amazingly honest reel while Peter’s is so visceral. I would have liked to see them take it, or have Vincent Irizary be the spoiler. So happy for Kate. While I actually don’t think her reel did her work justice, having followed her work last year in its entirety I know that she deserved it. It was gut-wrenching and at times very hard to watch. Lead Actress was very tough to call.… Read more »

I wish the Daytime Emmy’s would have been televised. In my opinion, Nancy Lee Grahn should have won an Emmy for her work this past year. She was amazing and I can’t imagine anybody better.

I was surprised that Nichelle Nichols didn’t win for her stint as Lucinda. Those scenes with her and Kristoff were heartbreaking and performed superbly by both of them. But the real snub of the night was Laura Wright. She absolutely slayed her scenes as Carly grieving her son’s death, and provided so much weight in every scene she was in. She’s an actress who can speak so much without saying a single word, and I think she deserved the win this year. That’s not to say Gina wasn’t fantastic as well; the court scenes with Victor and the reveal with… Read more »

I may have missed it but–
Who were the judges???
They are responsible for the outcomes.

I’d bet some of the judges do not even watch the soaps.

So— who can give the names of the judges????

YES!!! Outstanding Drama Series: General Hospital wins for the second straight year!!! The best daytime drama series category was first created in 1972 and GH is still the runaway leader with 13 total show wins (81, 84, 95, 96, 97, 99, 00, 05, 06, 08, 12, 16, and 17) so congrats to the cast and crew of GH for taking home the top prize once again. Outstanding Directing Team, too, for the second straight year! Frank and Jelly submitted the back to back episodes from the Julexis wedding on Feb 23rd and Feb 24th, 2016. The back to back submissions… Read more »

YES! Bravo to Bryan Craig and Congrats to Lexi Ainsworth! Best young actor and actress of 2017! Bryan’s emmy reel was truly brillant and packed an emotional punch that was unmatched compared to the other four guys in his category. I was blown away by this acting performance and it was even more riveting watching it a second time without any cuts in the scenes. Bryan submitted the heartbreaking powerful scenes of Morgan’s reaction to Sonny and Carly deciding to have him committed (which was the majority of this six minute reel) along with the roof scenes with Morgan considering… Read more »

Funny quote: I would like to know how you get robbed if the Emmy was never in your possession to begin with? Hughes was lead not supporting so was Mansi the woman from B&B her reel was great and she was supporting and when was the guy from B&B considered a guest he is recurring . This is why a lot of viewers shake their heads as far as best soap none they all are struggling!

I am surprised so many people have written so many negative comments. ALL of these actors are hard working. ALL of these actors made it through the first round of voting. Obviously the voting committee saw something you didn’t. I may not agree with every storyline or the winners, but I raise a glass to everyone that won. My highlights were seeing Susan Lucci and once again seeing how much she means to daytime. Her tribute to Agnes Nixon was amazing. Although I loved seeing Kate Mansi win Best Supporting Actress, “DOOL” has done a great job with finding the… Read more »

I’m so glad Gina Tognoni and Kate Mansi won.

But Steve Burton winning Supporting Actor??? And General Hospital for Best Drama? Yikes!

I am so Happy, Gina won the Daytime Emmy. She is a terrific actress. Bravo Gina, we love you as Phyllis.

OK—

I would like to see a list of the judges….

Why are the judges hidden unavailable to the public??

Who were the judges????

I’m sorry, but, BOTH that Scott Clifton dude and that TOTALLY OVERRATED Steve Burton DID NOT DESERVE to win…AT ALL!!!!! NO, NO AND MORE NO!!!!!!!!!!

Later.

Gina won and it was awesome, for those that commented that they wanted the GH actresses to win, please. Your show won get over it.

GIna is an awesome actress to win 3 times is great in a tough category.

GINA RULES DAYTIME, Y&R so glad you got her, not missing the old Phyllis that’s for sure.

I really don’t get wha’ts so great about Scott Clifton, he really is just playing himself. He does deserve an award for sustained performance though in dealing with B&Bs repetitive storytelling for so many years now. And how does it work that one soap wins Best Drama, but another soap wins Best writing? Wouldn’t the two go hand in hand?

I was so happy to be able to view the Emmys this year. I could have done without that lame banter about whether or not Ms. Underwood would get to sleep with Mr. Lopez and the Basset Hound march that took too long, but was other wise happy with it. Would I have liked to have seen other people win some of those awards? Yes, but I don’t begrudge anyone who did win them. Our favorites always win because they win our adoration. That being said, I am so over the moon for my GH peeps who won! Yeah!
