Even though she's totally Emmy worthy on DH was the Golden Globe nominee ever considered Emmy worthy as Isabella?

She was horrible, I thought, especially when she first started. She reminded me of Shemar Moore when he first started (both very beautiful but no acting experience).

She did get a little better. She was paired at one point with Michael and he brought some energy out of her (they did do a great dance in his office). But all in all, she was bad.

Her last scene was her best - when they carried her off to the looney bin and she screamed revenge at Michael Baldwin. Very over the top, hysterical and hilarious.

Yeah, I don't remember her being all that great at Y&R. She has definitely improved greatly because I think she's really good on Desperate Housewives. Probably one of the most underrated actresses on TV.

She was lousy, she even made Lauralee Bell seem like a talented thespian and Lauralee was perhaps the most monotone, boring, and dry actress that ever inhabited Genoa City.

Longoria certainly was never Emmy worthy, though I did love her when she confronted Christine in the bathtub with a knife.

I've grown to like her on Desperate Housewives, but I absolutely couldn't stand Eva Longoria as Isabella. I enjoyed neither the character nor her acting.

Loved Longoria as Isabella. She was shaky when she first started but improved greatly. I still miss her and the character.
