Days of our Lives
Outstanding Lead Actress
Marci Miller — Abigail Deveraux

Abigail confronts Gwen about lying to Chad about seeing Abigail kissing Jake and overhearing her reserving a room at the Salem Inn. Ultimately Gwen tries and fail to talk her way out of it, and a furious Abigail fires her and throws her out of the house.

Very well acted scenes from Marci Miller, who has really upped the level of soapy drama energy she’s bringing since her previous stint. Emily O’Brien and Billy Flynn are great in the scenes as well.

The Bold and the Beautiful

Outstanding Lead Actor: Scott Clifton (Liam Spencer)
Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series

Liam confesses his night of infidelity to Hope.

Another formidable script by Tracey Ann Kelly that expertly blends sentimentality and suspense (will Liam finally succeed at following through with his confession?) strengthened by a magnificent performance by Scott Clifton, who manages to articulate Liam’s inner conflict with just the right balance of pathos and poignancy.

The Bold and the Beautiful

Outstanding Lead Actor: Scott Clifton (Liam Spencer)
Outstanding Lead Actress: Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (Steffy Forrester)
Outstanding Supporting Actress: Annika Noelle (Hope Logan Spencer)
Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series
Outstanding Music Direction/Composition for a Drama Series

Liam pleads with Hope to find it in her heart to forgive him. Steffy comes clean to Finn about that fateful night she and Liam spent together.

A tour-de-force performance by Clifton, highlighted by his grand delivery of that divinely-written monologue by Michele Val Jean (to go along with my favorite musical piece!) that caps off the episode. The two ladies are also wonderful throughout, with Noelle in the way she carefully navigates Hope’s feelings of shock and dismay, and JMW in her masterful display of an emotionally-conflicted Steffy.

The Young and the Restless

Outstanding Lead Actress: Melissa Ordway (Abby Newman Chancellor)
Outstanding Supporting Actress: Beth Maitland (Traci Abbott)
Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series

Abby is devastated that she can’t carry a child and searches her soul in an effort to come to terms with her diagnosis. Traci reminisces about Colleen and all that could have been had her daughter still been alive.

Just magnificent work by both Ordway and Maitland, aided by a profoundly moving script by Michael Conforti and Janice Ferri Esser.
Honorable mention to Peter Bergman who once again shines as Maitland’s screen partner.

Days of our Lives
Outstanding Supporting Actress
Emily O’Brien — Gwen Rizczech

Gwen reveals that Jack is her father and lays into him for abandoning her and her mother and instead starting a family with Jennifer.

This story is somewhat bizarre for a number of reasons, but Emily O’Brien did a great job with Gwen’s fury and her pain over her feelings of abandonment and resentment.

The Bold and the Beautiful

Outstanding Lead Actress: Heather Tom (Katie Logan Spencer)
Outstanding Lead Actor: Don Diamont (Bill Spencer)
Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series

An apologetic Bill pleads with a guarded Katie to let him back into her life and her heart.

Captivating work by both Tom and Diamont, who bring a quiet intensity to each of their respective monologues, splendidly constructed by
Brad Bell & Co.

Yes, Lindsay Arnold did a great job with some very challenging material. Not only was it a difficult subject matter (the scenes were pretty uncomfortable to watch), but she also had to convey a lot of emotion in the hypnosis scenes with her eyes shut. Kudos to her.
