     I’m surprised that there hasn’t been more reactions from everybody here… So here are my comments:

    I didn’t think Peggy McCay deserved the nomination. Yes, the speech at Will and Sonny’s wedding was great, but apart from that, I don’t think she’s had great scenes. 

    Ali Sweeney, of course the nomination was expected, I’m hoping she’ll win.

    To me, the biggest upset was Blake Berris not getting a nomination. He did a fantastic job in his last year as Nick, from his scenes with Sami and Kate in the river to the big "he’s alive" reveal, to finally his last scenes… He so deserved to be noticed! 

    What are your thoughts?

    is Ari Zucker. Look at all she’s had to emote and she always handles it beautifully. Maybe even the actress who plays Theresa. That she’s garnered some empathy from me lately when I could not stand her all this time speaks to her acting ability.
    Don’t get Peggy McCay simply because she’s rarely on screen. Maybe it’s the aging actress nom?

     but I’m really rooting for Ali Sweeney to win in the Best Actress category (but she’s got some tough competition).  To me, it would be well deserved simply for her many years on DOOL and this being her very first nom.

    I’m also rooting for Camila Banus in the Young Actress category, and think she might take it, as well as it being her first nom too).  I love Freddie Smith, but I don’t think he’ll win, and although Peggy’s reel (the Will/Sonny wedding speech) was pretty terrific, that was about the only really terrific scene she had, and she’s a 4-time Emmy winner from past years, so I’m really hoping it goes to Alison.

    I really feel bad for Blake Berris, who was once again snubbed and removed from the final noms, as well as Ari Zucker, both of whom I thought truly deserved the Emmy for their work.

    I agree with you about the work of Jen Lilley (Theresa), even though I truly despise the character.  The actress is terrific in the role and people hating on her so much only proves what a fabulous actress she truly is.  Unfortunately, she didn’t send in a reel, therefore she wasn’t ever in the running this year.  But, with what she has coming into play, look for her to be in the running next year!!!
