When every you talk to any actor or actress in daytime they are always blown away by the talent of Jane Elliot of General Hospital. Jane is as good as it gets! And this past week, Elliot landed a nomination in the Outstanding Supporting Actress category for this year’s 41st Annual Daytime Emmy Awards!
But what is stunning about this, and hard to believe, is that the last time Jane won in this category was 1981, that was 33 years ago! And more intriguing was this is the first time in 20 years that she allowed herself to even be submitted in the competition!
So how come now Jane decided its time to enter the fray again? Here’s what she told TV Guide Magazine’s Michael Logan on what went down: “As usual, I said no and (GH executive producer) Frank Valentini put his foot down and would not take no for an answer. That is how much he believes in me, how much he cares. I have never had a producer go out of his or her way to support me the way Frank does. (Former GH executive producer) Gloria Monty refused to submit me for the Emmy the year I won, so I submitted myself just because I was so pissed that she refused to do it! Frank is the only one who ever said, ‘You’ll be submitted this year, whether you like it or not. It’s not up for discussion.’ And, so, here we are. Submitting myself for awards feels like a weird kind of horn-blowing that’s not comfortable for me. I’m really happy when someone likes my work but I don’t like marketing myself, putting myself on display. For an actor, I’m an odd duck. So I don’t know what to tell you. Ooh! (Laughs) Yes I do know what I can tell you! Deidre Hall broke her arm so I don’t know who’s going to do my roots for the Emmys.”
So, do you think this could be the year that Jane Elliot finally takes home the gold? Do you think as many do, Jane Elliot is the gold standard for soap actresses? Let us know!

Tiffany Daniels Fills-In For Briana Nicole Henry as GH’s Jordan
General Hospital viewers will notice a different Jordan Ashford in a few episodes as Tiffany Daniels temporarily replaces Briana Nicole Henry.
As previously reported and revealed by Henry herself, the actress did contract Covid-19 and during her time away from the ABC daytime drama series, she had to be replaced for some episodes.
In a post on her Instagram story this week, Henry opened up about the casting switch that actually brought her best friend to Port Charles for a bit.

Briana stated: “I appreciate all the love and support from you guys worried about my status as Jordan on GH. I got Covid over the holidays and had to take a couple weeks off,” She went on to say, “Someone needed to fill in for me. Coincidentally, it’s my best friend! So, I am back at GH and please enjoy the beautiful Tiff D. for the next couple of episodes.”
Daniels has appeared in numerous primetime drama and comedies over her career.
So, let us know how you feel Tiffany did subbing for her friend, Briana, via the comment section below and note that soon Henry will be back on-screen as Jordan,

When Martin Met Jackie (AKA All My Children’s Tad and Jenny) on General Hospital
If you caught Monday’s episode of General Hospital, the ABC daytime drama snuck in a ‘wink-wink nudge-nudge’ to viewers of the once dominant ABC daytime soap opera line-up.
Since Kim Delaney was announced as coming to GH to take on the role of ace investigative journalist, Jackie Templeton, longtime All My Children viewers noted that she at some point could be reunited with her former All My Children TV brother, Michael E. Knight, because they are both now in Port Charles.

The one time Tad and Jenny Gardner of Pine Valley got re-acquainted on yesterday’s episode when Martin interrupted a conversation between Jackie and her son, Chase (Josh Swickard). When he did, Jackie looks at Martin and says, “Do I know you?” She looks as though she is trying to place exactly where she knows that face from, and from there the two eventually share their first one-on-one scenes as their new soap alter-egos.
In the moment, Martin wants Jackie to investigate what happened to his mother, Florence, and reveals to Jackie that his bio-brother is Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober), which perks up Jackie to probably do some digging.
For many, it was great to see Michael and Kim together again, and here’s hoping GH can capitalize on it in future scenes.
So did you enjoy the nod to All My Children history on yesterday’s GH between Jackie and Martin aka Jenny and Tad? Comment below.

Jane Elliot is locked in for the win. She is one of the best actresses in the genre IMO. I am so happy that Frank Valentini made her submit herself this year.
Couldn’t agree more!
She is one of my favorites i hope will win…my only problem with Tracy…a smart business woman…blinded by love…doesnt realize there is something not right about Luke!!!
Being a good business woman doesnt necessarily make you a good at relationships. Tracy is older, her choices are dwindling, but most of all, she loves Luke and when you love someone you tend to look beyond the obvious.
Some actors may not care about winning awards but just wants to do the best job he or she can do.So Jane Elliot might be that kind of actress but i’m happy Frank Valentini made her submit this year.Plus i think she has a good chance of winning this year.
Jane…you are so TRULY TALENTED!!!!! And…you are so wonderfully humble and so wonderfully down-to-earth!!!!! Bottom Line, Jane: YOU REALLY AND TRULY DESERVE TO WIN!!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!
Jane Elliot is an all time winner every time she is on my screen.. 🙂
Kudos to Jane, who is a sensational actress and a class act, and thanks to Frank for insisting that her work be submitted !!!! Fingers crossed for a well deserved win!!!!! Good luck Jane!!!
BTripp…Jane is NOT ONE of the best, she is THE best actor on Soaps male or female… no contest!
She is in the top ten, thats for sure. Anthony Geary, Marice Bernard, Eric Braeden, Melody Thomas, Christain LeBlanc, Finola Hughes, to name a few.
What a refreshing attitude for an actor! I hope she wins, but what her nominated scene?
Yes she can! I have watched her since for years even back in the early 80’s. I am a GH fan from my high school years over 30 years ago! She is one of the best!
She is LEGENDARY..Her talents are second to none..Everytime she is on screen, she delivers..I hope she wins..If she does not win, PLEASE give the award to the other deserving actress in this category Kelly Sullivan.
jane is total rock star! she deserves the emmy but regardless if she wins or not, she’s simply a true original.
if it means… every actor on the 4 remaining shows… should submit… to over ride… CBS’ block voting… with 2 shows… versus one each for ABC and NBC. then it should be done : it’s laugh out loud… how many nominations Y&R railroads ————- Jane Elliott : congratulations . what can one say : other than Thank You for giving the audience… A Quartermaine… plugging along tour de force I might add… with Monica Man! Ned (Wally Kurth) is a must have…. whenever they can… ala, Eileen Davidson, Kristen and Ashley Miss AJ back to Jane Elliott : celebrate your… Read more »

” “As usual, I said no and (GH executive producer) Frank Valentini put his foot down and would not take no for an answer. That is how much he believes in me, how much he cares. I have never had a producer go out of his or her way to support me the way Frank does. ”

Way to go Frank !!! You are love by many !!
Very happy for Jane. She deserves whatever recognition she gets. Anything she’s been given to work with over the years, good storyline, bad storyline, whatever the case might be, she’s always brought it 110% every time. She’s always flown under the radar when it came to awards, and I never realized it was her personal choice. I respect her even more for that. But I’m glad that changed this year. It was a long overdue nomination, and I really hope she wins.
I am so excited for JE and GH for this one! She is most deserving of recognition.
The rest of the cast would do well to watch and learn from het.
Many of us go to our jobs everyday and many of us work hard and never get an award. I think thats what Jane is saying. She doesnt need an Emmy to know she is content. Glad to see she was nudged to submit a scene. Good luck to all those nominated.
I agree.Plus i think Jane might be happier that Frank Valentini believes in her enough to want her to submit than her getting nominated.
A wonderful actress that I would be so happy to see win.
Jane so deserves to win. She is a jewel at GH. Glad the producers recognize what the fans have always known.
Jane is extremely talented I enjoy watching her, she is absolutely fantastic I know she take home the gold!
If Frank really cared he would fire re-ron and get a real writer. When she was on GL she blew me away. ON GH they have her relish fighting ,not seeing what fluke is and I don’t know what they submitted but Jane is an actress.. She is talented that’s for sure.
Very well deserved nomination!!
No shade, but what storyline did she have this past year that warrants an emmy nomination? She is a very nuanced actor but i didnt see anything unusually brilliant this year.
That’s my question, too. Still, I hope she wins!!
I hope she submitted the “I want the whole mean” scene. It was amazing. She deserves the win.
I’m thrilled! I absolutely love Jane Elliot! I love and miss the Quartermaines! Jane Elliot is incredibly talented, brings many dimensions to Tracy Quartermaine, and has such chemistry with everyone she interacts with on-air!
Happy Birthday Jane Elliott
