YAY for Eileen Davidson! If she really submitted her New Year's scenes with John for the pre-nom, WHAT a smart choice! Also good choice to submit the May scenes with Marlena. Without a doubt the best performances for her last year!

Also ecstatic about Ari Zucker, although I think I wanted it for her more last year. The scenes where Nicole delivers her stillborn baby still give me chills just thinking about them!

Odd to see Eric Martsolf instead of Wally Kurth, Greg Vaughan, or Blake Berris.

Meh to Chandler Massey. I can't think of one scene in 2013 where he blew me away. Late 2011/early 2012 really was his time. I can't believe Freddie and Casey didn't make it!

LOVE that Days picked up the Best Drama nom again. If they submitted the rape reveal, they seriously could have it in the bag! You know, minus the awful Cameron/Jordan stuff we had to suffer along with it.

I am so excited for Eileen!!!

I am baffled by Eric Martsolf.
I'm no baffled at all. He did excellent work with Eileen.
Oh, ummmm. I must have missed that.

Yeah, I was usually excited for Massey on his other nominations, but this year, he really just was biding his time.

what is this EJAMI fight reel that both AS and JS submitted
Stupidity?

And I hope Days is smart enough NOT to submit any Ejami heavy episode for future Days awards submissions. They won't win.

Days submitted both of Kristen's failed weddings according to David Michaels from NATAS. I think they have a winner. I thought they would do Kristen and Nick/Gabi, but this should be good for a win, IMO.

Carolyn: What advice would you give on how to select a winning Emmy tape?

David: Wow… I would say go for emotion and drama. If you get the luxury of submitting two episodes [like for Best Show], make them different. For example, DAYS did something brilliant: They submitted Kristen’s two separate failed weddings.


This interview is also very telling and proving that GH wasn't snubbed they just picked a horrific reel because that is what Frank and Ron have always done since they've gotten into soaps.

If DAYS wins Best Drama for those episodes I think we can all agree that Deidre played a huge role as well as the rest of the cast. The one thing this show has done in the last two years is make it a great ensemble cast show. A win with these episodes would be an emmy for everyone involved in my opinion. EVERYONE brought his or her A-game for those episodes.

I don't know if Eileen could choose just ONE episode. I do think the episode with Deidre showed the most range of her acting capability. The viewer got to see Kristen at her worst (Angry, Emotional, Deranged,etc.) That alone should beat Heather Tom.

Michael Fairman has a show about the Emmy's now. Eileen was on but the call dropped, lol. Think she's back,

http://michaelfairmansoaps.com/news/listen-now-soap-nation-live-with-michael-fairman-daytime-emmy-nomination-special/2014/05/01/

She said she first submitted the January scenes when she told John her plans.

Her 2nd and final submission was the first wedding blowup in the scenes with Deidre.

Edit: she's back for 3-4 months, working 2 days a week but many eppi's in those days.
For those of you who are interested in Eileen's part, it starts at 17.00 (after it was edited). I loved the part she talked about EM and other nominees in her category.

that was what Greg Submitting according to DC podcast. And it sounds like Eric submitted that or the next day
Do you know where in the podcast they discussed this? I'm listening right now but can't find the section they discuss the submissions...
it was tape before the noms. At the end one of them talking about being at the Atlanta event over the weekend and mention it.

so 5-30-2013 and 11/8/2013 for their emmy reels.
5/30/2013 was really their best (they got their WGA for it, I think).
11/8/2013 - I don't know. I liked the aftermath 11/11/2013 and 11/12/2013 better.

Yeah, I was usually excited for Massey on his other nominations, but this year, he really just was biding his time.
But yet the scenes where Will explains to EJ why he lied about the pregnancy, or when Will was distraught about Gabi going into early labor, or the scenes before Will was shot were not only 10000x better than anything Freddie or Casey submitted, but better than anything they did all year.

The only thing I remember about both Freddie and Chandler after last May was playing with the baby and having a few scenes with Gabi. I think WilSon were on about 30 minutes from June to the end of the year. However, Chandler still delivered better acting. Not surprised the father of the Arianna twins always showed support for Chandler, but never Freddie or the dud, Guy.

Other than the OTT performance from Casey Moss, absolutely nothing is memorable from last year.

People are overly critical of Chandler because he's received a lot of recognition. His natural acting is easily better than Freddie and Casey by a long shot. I'm glad that the voters vote based on talent alone and are not biased or bitter fans.

Great episode selections for Days. These and the Nick and Gabi wedding were their best episodes of the year. Anything else submitted would've been a failure.

I hoped they submitted the Nick/Gabi wedding for Writing.

I'll quote Mitch as I couldn't find this on the Emmy site:
Quote:
 
You have to first submit a reel containing up to two unedited scenes, with a time limit cap of 4 minutes. These scenes can be from the same episode or not, so long as they aired during 2013. You also have to choose your category placement, this means you can submit in ANY category you want to (except in the Younger categories where the age limit is 25). That being said, performers 25 and under can still submit for contention in the upper categories if they choose to.

From there all eligible academy members will have the opportunity to view all of the submitted reels and will select the 10 best reels per category. The highest 10 vote getters will be the pre-nominees for the year in each category.

If you are one of the 10 pre-nominees, you then have to submit a reel containing your scenes from 1 entire episode (for 1 hour shows) or 2 back-to-back episodes (for half hour shows). These episodes do not have to be the ones you chose for pre-nomination, so actors can switch after they are pre-nominated.

At this point your episode is then judged by a blue-ribbon panel of judges having no direct involvement with any of the daytime dramas. The top 5 vote getters (that number fluctuates based on ties or how many submissions they receive for pre-nomination contention) will determine the final nominees and also the winner as the highest vote getter will be the winner.


Also no more voting for the final round. This means that technically they know now who's won, they just don't announce it until June 22. Am I correct?
And does it apply to the non-acting categories as well?

I agree with all your points about Chandler but not about Freddie. I think you're unfairly undermining Freddie in favor of Chandler. IMO, Freddie is very good when given the material but he doesn't usually get quality material. But when he does, he really gives great performance. He can do light and comedic scenes and he can do angry, he can also do distraught.

As for Freddie, IMO, Freddie shouldn't have submitted the hospital scenes. They were moving, but when you don't have a scene partner it's hard for people to evaluate your performance. He should've submitted the brake-up scene. He did some great scenes with JA, JE and WK. He could've also submitted scenes from when Sami was arrested and he was feuding with his mom.

Finally, I am not exactly sure why a nice word from the father of Udel twins to Chandler, when he was leaving has to do with anyone's acting abilities. If it does, those adorable twins' parents actually highly complimented Freddie, Camila and Chandler.

yeah, apparently all the winners are in and known, they just won't release the names till the show.
