DC #445: 2009 Daytime Emmy Predictions
It's Emmy Week at Daytime Confidential! On today's episode of the podcast, famed entertainment journalist Tom O'Neil (founder of The Envelope.com, senior editor of In Touch Weekly) and TV Guide Canada's Nelson Branco, chat with Luke and Jamey about the 36th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards, airing Sunday, Aug. 30, 2009 on The CW.
O'Neil, the foremost expert on awards shows, and author of such tomes as Movie Awards, The Emmys and The Grammys, provides an in depth, insider's perspective of the award show process, and drives home why it is imperative daytime fans watch this year's Daytime Emmy Awards,and support all daytime programming if the telecast is to survive.
O'Neil and Branco, himself a veteran of awards show coverage, also weigh in on whether or not Susan Lucci finally winning the Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress and/or Oprah Winfrey taking herself out of the race for Outstanding Talk Show Host, cost the Daytime Emmys in terms of much-needed, mainstream buzz.
Along the way, Luke, Jamey and Nelson handicap this year's race, providing their thoughts on who should win, as opposed to who will win. It's an episode you won't wanna miss. Then, be sure to check out Nelson Branco, Soap Opera Digest's Stephanie Sloane and our own Jamey Giddens on the hour-long Daytime Emmy pre-show Live From The Red Carpet, hosted by The Insider's Lara Spencer and Entertainment Tonight's Kevin Frazier, airing just before the Emmys.

It's hard to decide on acting done by mediocre writing.
I don't know the clips really well. Should of Crystal Chappell been supporting? I ask this, because I watched her work surrounding Gus' death in the hospital and I can not understand why she didn't get nominated.
Kelly Monaco can make a living in my bed.

I'm looking forward to listening to the podcast! I will be watching The Daytime Emmys this year, even though I don't agree with a lot of the acting nominations. Actually, I can't wait to see Jamey on the pre-show! Jamey is a great choice for this, but let's hope he doesn't run into Judith Chapman! LOL!

A lot of people were asking the same questions as you when the emmy noms came out I think Crystal and the actress that plays Marcie got robbed but this year apparently the hardest category was the supporting actresses I honestly enjoy ever actress in that category this year but a few of them belong in the lead I just chock it up to the emmy process sucking. I'm hoping for tamara to take the emmy for supporting or julie pinson or melissa claire egan.

Great podcast guys, I agree with you guys on all counts. Can't wait to see you on the pre-show either, Jamey. Tom and Nelson were right on point. I am with you, Luke, AMC could very well win for Best Drama.

Let me add,
Anthony Geary getting 7 Emmys and becoming the leader makes sense. What would soaps be without your rapist-hero? Bradley Cole would have it made, if he could act.
This message brought to you by the campaign to keep Justin Deas, who took his name out of the running long ago, the number one actor. After all, he played three iconic characters.
