Last night in ceremonies held in Los Angeles, The Bold and the Beautiful picked up the the award for the Outstanding Daily Drama besting Days of our Lives and The Young and the Restless at the 29th Annual GLAAD Media Awards. The awards will be shown on Logo on April 18th at 8PMET/PT.
Karla Mosley (Maya Avant) posted her excitement of the CBS soap receiving the honor on her Instagram account, relating: “Aaaaand we won!!!! So proud and grateful. Cheers to the incredible actors who play with me every day .”
In addition, NBC’s This Is Us picked up the honor for Outstanding Drama Series, while Fox’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine took home the comedy series award.
The GLAAD Media Awards recognize and honor media for their fair, accurate and inclusive representations of the LGBTQ community and the issues that affect their lives. They also fund GLAAD’s work to amplify stories from the LGBTQ community that build support for equality.
So, what do you think of B&B receiving the honor in the Daily Drama category? Comment below!
Once again, Days gets robbed. Whatever.
Too funny I mean if you were a new viewer you would not even know Maya was a transgender this is why these awards have become meaningless.
I still don’t get the win for this show. Once again, Maya is underutilized, so what is the win based on? Just sayings
I was thinking the same thing. Once the truth was told, her character, not to mention her whole immediate family was pushed aside so they could once again focus on what I call the “usuals and rehash the same topics over and over again
Confusing at best – unless the award is for most complete dropping of an LGBTQ character and story line. There is still a lot of story to tell here, but the subject will likely not be revisited unless Liam decides to undergo gender reassignment and pursues a lesbian triangle with Hope and Steffy…
That is hysterical. They sure do drop characters and storylines instantly and move on to triangle after triangle. I wish they would have kept Spectra’s Saul and had him as a gay character. I adored him and he would have been excellent working at Forrester since Spectra is dead-at least for now.
BWAHAHA NOW THAT’S FUNNY.
Now that would prove to be interesting
I tuned into B&B only a few times..
My impression was = PHONY junk..
It was very plastic ..
Needless to say ”it was not my thing’ YUCK!
Days is more diverse. B&B fashion industry with all straight folks. Not to mention white
As an openly gay man, this offends me. I mean…Maya has hardly been onscreen lately. I don’t get it. Not buying it. Nope.
Preach, Brother, Preach!
James…as always, thanks for the backup, Brother!!!!! Much, much appreciated.
Later, Brother.
With Jacob Young now recurring, I think we won’t be seeing much of Maya, unless they pair her with Carter. This show needs diversity and a production team that can think beyond Brooke, Ridge, Bill, Liam, Steffy, Hope, Wyatt and Katie. They have very capable actors on the backburner. Give us a story to deserve this award.
oh yeah
I am in total agreement!, SZiima!
