The Young and the RestlessApril 18, 2024 at 1:47 pm #1205808054Eric Braeden, John McCook & Eric Martsolf YES but NO to Scott Clifton & Thorsten Kaye
April 18, 2024 at 2:00 pm #1205808057This is shocking!
Three noms for B&B!
No noms for GH!
Braeden over Bergman & Thompson for Y&R!
Insane!
All of the nominees have already won (Martsolf in a different category).
This is Braeden’s first nom in 20 years.
April 18, 2024 at 2:01 pm #1205808060Bizarre Lead Actor nominations. Honestly, I am not rooting for any of them ):
At least there is no Peter Bergman on the list (;
Eric Braden as Victor Newman, The Young and the Restless, CBS
Scott Clifton as Liam Spencer, The Bold and the Beautiful, CBS
Thorsten Kaye as Ridge Forrester, The Bold and the Beautiful, CBS
Eric Martsolf as Brady Black, Days Of Our Lives, Peacock
John McCook as Eric Forrester, The Bold and the Beautiful, CBSApril 18, 2024 at 2:02 pm #1205808064This is shocking!
Three noms for B&aB!
No noms for GH!
Braeden over Bergman & Thompson for Y&R!
Insane!
All of the nominees have already won (Martsolf in a different category).
This is Braeden’s first nom in 20 years.
I really do get the feeling that CBS rigs the lead performance categories.
April 18, 2024 at 2:13 pm #1205808072It’s good to see CBS ruling for the time being. I would’ve loved to see James Reynolds nominated.
It’s good to see Eric Braeden nominated since it’s been 20 years for him. This evening, I better see or hear that Melody Thomas Scott is nominated for Lead Actress.
April 18, 2024 at 2:21 pm #1205808083I resisted the CBS rigging theory for a long time, but after last year’s wins, it started to feel more plausible.
Generally, I find this list rather underwhelming, but that’s based mostly on my feelings on the actors in general, so maybe they have a dynamite reel and totally deserved the nomination. Thanks to NATAS not releasing reels, we’ll never know! It’s nice to see Eric Braeden getting another nomination after all these years.
I’m definitely rooting for Eric Martsolf, a great actor who had some excellent scenes in 2023 and also is a super nice guy.
April 18, 2024 at 2:33 pm #1205808104It’s good to see CBS ruling for the time being. I would’ve loved to see James Reynolds nominated.
It’s good to see Eric Braeden nominated since it’s been 20 years for him. Tomorrow, I better see Melody Thomas Scott nominated for Lead Actress.
Lead Actress is coming out in a few hours later today.
Where is Mark Grossman? Perhaps he submitted in supporting?
April 18, 2024 at 2:34 pm #1205808109Lead Actress is coming out in a few hours later today.
Where is Mark Grossman? Perhaps he submitted in supporting?
I edit my post. I think Mark probably submitted in Supporting. I hope and pray tomorrow that Tanner Novlen is nominated.
April 18, 2024 at 4:07 pm #1205808172Outstanding Lead Performance in a Daytime Drama Series: Actress
Tamara Braun as Ava Vitali — Days of Our Lives
Finola Hughes as Anna Devane — General Hospital
Katherine Kelly Lang as Brooke Logan — The Bold and the Beautiful
Annika Noelle as Hope Logan — The Bold and the Beautiful
Michelle Stafford as Phyllis Summers — The Young and the Restless
Cynthia Watros as Nina Reeves — General HospitalEverybody except the two B&B noms have already won (Braun in a different category, Watros for a different show and role).
April 18, 2024 at 4:10 pm #1205808177No Heather Tom or JMW!!!!! My guess is Wright & West didn’t submit. Where’s Arianne Zucker?
So happy for Stafford, Hughes & Watros! I think Stafford’s gonna be hard to beat.
Were the other nominees actually leads in 2023? I don’t watch their shows so I can’t say for sure, but I don’t remember reading much about their performances here last year.
This is the 9th time in the last 10 years that GH has more than one nominee in this category. It’s only won once in that timeframe (West won over Wright in 2015).
CBS has won this category the last 7 years!
April 18, 2024 at 4:24 pm #1205808187Tamara Braun as Ava Vitali, Days Of Our Lives, Peacock
Finola Hughes as Anna Devane, General Hospital, ABC
Katherine Kelly Lang as Brooke Logan, The Bold and the Beautiful, CBS
Annika Noelle as Hope Forrester, The Bold and the Beautiful, CBS
Michelle Stafford as Phyllis Summers, The Young and the Restless, CBS
Cynthia Watros as Nina Reeves, General Hospital, ABCOver the moon about Cynthia’s nomination and I of course am rooting for her! Incredibly it’s only her 3rd nomination. I don’t get Lang and Noelle at all. I would have thought Ava was a supporting character on Days?
No JMW this year.
I am also surprised that Ari Zucker isn’t there but perhaps she didn’t submit? I don’t think Maura submits any longer.
April 18, 2024 at 4:25 pm #1205808189Hmmmmm. I’m so upset Melody Thomas Scott didn’t get nominated 😭😭😭😭😭😭 but I am happy for Michelle Stafford, Annika Noelle, Tamara Braun and Katherine Kelley Lang. It’s feeling like a B&B year. Not sure if Katherine, Annika & Tamara were Lead…………
April 18, 2024 at 4:27 pm #1205808191No Heather Tom or JMW!!!!! My guess is Wright & West didn’t submit. Where’s Arianne Zucker?

I don’t know about Braun but Lang and Noelle for me were supporting performers on B&B in 2023.
I am rooting 100% for Cynthia Watros!!!!!
