And so it begins, the race is on for Daytime Emmy Gold with the announcement this morning from The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) of the Drama Performer Pre-Nominations for the upcoming 46th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards.

The process used to determine the Pre-Nominated performers follows:

An online judging ballot containing all entrants in nine performer categories was sent to all registered, eligible peer judges. The ballot contained a randomized order of performers in each category, regardless of their show affiliation. Judges were required to view clips online containing the work of each performer entry before selecting their top 10 performer choices in each category. The once exception is that there are 11 Supporting Actresses in a Digital Drama due to exact ties in the voting. As well, the names of the actors proceeding directly to the Blue Ribbon round of voting in the Younger Actor and Actress, and Guest Performer categories in a Drama Series are contained below as well.

Ballots were submitted directly to Lutz & Carr, Inc., an independent accounting firm, who tabulated the results. The candidates below who received the highest number of votes now advance to the blue ribbon screening round, scheduled to begin on February 21, 2019, which will determine both nominees and recipients.  

Final nominations will be announced on Wednesday, March 20, 2019.

“We are very proud to officially launch the 46th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards with this list of extremely talented actors and actresses” said Brent Stanton, Executive Director, Daytime Emmy Awards Administration. “We are also very excited that this year the pre-nomination round includes the very talented performers from the Digital Drama Series.”

“Following the success of last year’s show, we look forward to the 46th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards being even bigger and better,” said David Michaels, Senior Vice President, and Executive Producer, Daytime Emmy Awards. “Today’s list of talent bodes well for a spirited competition and a star-studded show”

Congrats to all for their Pre-noms, now check out who made the cut below!

Did Camila Banus (Gabi. DOOL) just not submit anything this year? Because that’s the ONLY reason why I can think of for not to be on the Best Supporting Actress list.

If Peter makes it to the final round(s), I will lose all faith in the system. There are so many well-deserving actors on this list. Those that have actually earned their jobs.

I don’t watch GH but I keep reading comments like yours on different media sites. He wasn’t bad when he was a young man on Guiding Light but that was about a decade ago. I might have to watch clips of him on GH just to be curious lol.

I have to admit I’m confuse on how the voting procedure goes, but still happy the GH ladies and guys that made the list, happy that Michele Stafford is finally popping up for her work on gh, and glad to see Tamara Braun in the list for supporting, especially since they started her character out slow, and now she’s in hight gear onscreen.

No snub at all if she did not submit a reel. There are no nominations for these awards other than the actor nominating themself.

Glad to see Lindstrom in the lead category, as he has been driving story for months now. As mad as I was that Genie “went on hiatus”, that was probably the best thing to happen to JL on the show since they paired the 2 together.

Gail is rightfully in the supporting category. Howarth should have got Ramsey’s slot, but I suspect he submitted in lead.

Great list of actors. I think the one glaring omission is Rob Scott Wilson (Ben, DOOL). He has done the impossible, making us cheer for a killer. I also think Camilla Banus should not only have been pre-nominated, but should have won. Kate Mansi is a lock for her award. I am surprised to not see Greg Vaughn on the list. I am hoping to see the awards on Hallmark or Lifetime channel this year since they continue to employ so many daytime actors. Lastly, I would love to see Michael Fairman and Lauren Koslow do the red carpet.

Just give the Best Supporting Actor Emmy to Max Gail right now. No disrespect to any of the other names on the list in that category, but it shouldn’t even be a competition. Max has been on another level. And to think, that role was originally planned to only las6 3 months. The other names that stand out for me, very glad to see Jon Lindstrom’s name after all these years. I don’t recall him ever being nominated or pre-nominated in the past. Hope he makes the final cut. The story has dragged on too much for my liking, but… Read more »

^^^ it just sounds and reads a lot of intelligence. ACTORS who craft their chosen profession … take the time and/or have that IT quotient to RUN with any thing. across the board fascinate AND mesmerize. on that note –

it’s Billy Flynn, Chad @DAYS
it’s Drake Hogestyn, John @DAYS

who should be in the top 5 and easily take home emmy

^^^ it sure would be a party

BREAKING NEWS: Tina Turner, Trailblazing Rock Star, Dead at 83

In heartbreaking pop culture news, the legendary and iconic, Tina Turner has died at her home in near Zurich, Switzerland after a long illness.

The news came from Turner’s reps who shared, “With her, the world loses a music legend and a role model.”  The rock legend was 83-years-old. Turner’s life was marked by regaining her life after domestic abuse and being an icon for women in the music industry and more.

Photo: ABC

As an entertainment non could compare, Tina won nine Grammy Award and sold over 200 million albums. She rose to fame in the 1960s as the centerpiece of the Ike & Tina Turner Revue.   Turner was inducted twice into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Her relationship with Ike Turner and her trials, tribulations and success where made into a 1993 movie, “What’s Love Got To Do With It” which starred Angela Bassett.  That film was based on her 1986 moving and harrowing memoir, “I Tina”.

There was no greater pop comeback story, when at 44 years old, she released the iconic album, Private Dancer, which featured hit after hit and gave Tina the push to have an even greater second-half to her 60 year career.

Photo: Billboard

Before concert and performing retirement at age 69, she was still tearing it up with her dance moves like no one else.

Some of her greatest hits include:  “The Best,” “What’s Love Got to Do With It,” “Better Be Good to Me” and of course, “Proud Mary” and “River Deep Mountain High.”

Turner had iconic film and TV including as the Acid Queen in Tommy (1975) and as Aunty Entity in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985). On television, she was always a guest and featured on variety shows, MTV, and in commercials and more.

We will have more on the death of Tina Turner as remembrances pour in on social media throughout the day.

Kin Shriner Says He’s Been Written Out at GH and Shares: “Thank You General Hospital Fans For Decades of Supporting Me!”

Out of nowhere, long-running General Hospital vet, Kin Shriner, shared on his Twitter account Tuesday morning that the soap opera which he has called home, on and off for 45 years, has written him off the show.

That would mean, coming up in story, Shriner’s Port Charles alter-ego, Scott Baldwin is somehow exiting the canvas.

In his tweet, Shriner expressed:I just found out Scotty was written out, I thank U General Hospital fans for decades of supporting me!”

Many are finding this hard to believe, in part, because back in December of 2021 Shriner tweeted, “Scotty’s run is done, so heading to Florida to ride Vespa around the tropics!”  Eventually, Kin was back at GH.

The last long period of time that Kin was away from GH was a five-year absence until Scott was back in Port Charles in February of 2013.

No word yet from the show itself, confirming the news put out by Shriner.  If this is all said and done, we firmly believe Scott will have to come to Port Charles at some point.

Shriner remains one of the all-time favorites of the iconic soap opera currently celebrating its 60th year on the air.

So, what do you think about Kin stating that he is being written off of GH? Comment below.
