Congrats to the GH actors!!

TY Kathy

YAY IA w/ all the noms! The lead actress is going to be intersting since all the women on the shows I watch are great!

While of course congratulations are in order for all the actors/actresses, some are quite puzzling. Yes, I love Carolyn Hennessey and Bruce Weitz, but I can't for the life of me understand why either was nominated over many of the other cast members. Also, why is there no GH nominee for younger actor? Dylan Cash did work this year, and I think he is definitely worthy!

Personally, I'm pulling for Jacob Young to win for supporting actor with his performances since Babe's death. He has been absolutely awesome!

IA that AM (Kendal) should be on lead not supporting. I thought RH (Liz) did have some good stuff this yr. I REALLY think that MB(Sonny) & LW(Carly) deserve to be there for the Michael stuff and everything else that cam this year. They both did great. Also on OLTL I thought SH (Marty) did a really good job w/ her comeback.

ITA regarding AM. She is NOT supporting, she is a lead. I thought that lead was supposed to be an easier category since there are fewer entries anyway. Maybe she's afraid of big bad Erika Slezak and Kim Zimmer.

Anyway, I'm totally rooting for all our GH peeps whether I agree with the nominations or not, as long as CBS doesn't win everything again I guess I'm good.
