I guess it would depend on when they started airing--but i'd put Kristina Wagner and Tuck Watkins in the race. Wagner i believe aired for a small bit in January 2008 so she might be a contender. and Watkins if he fails to qualify for the general race could be a really strong contender for Guest Actor. Also throw Mary J. Blige into Guest Actress from "One Life to Live"

Any guest star list that didn't include Tuc Watkins's David from OLTL is not valid, IMO.

As much as I love Shirley Jones, she was painfully bad. Betty White OTOH was wonderful.

And someone should remember Dan Gauthier and Nathan Fillion on OLTL, too.

Honestly, I would just do one category for males and females. There aren't enough to fill two categories. One would end up with a seriously underserving winner.

Early choices would be Patrick Duffy, Alley Mills and Tuc Watkins (depending on how long he stays).

I think that Andrea Evans would also be a logical choice as most reports seem to indicate that her stay at "OLTL" will without a doubt be short-lived. Which reminds me, Tonja Walker Davidson is another choice for sure--she has appeared several times this year.

I agree Gauthier and Fillion along with James Depavia should be remembered as well...

I'm just doing some guessing here:

Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series
Tom Pelphrey, Guiding Light
Snoop Dogg, One Life to Live
Tuc Watkins, One Life to Live
Patrick Duffy, The Bold and the Beautiful
Jerry Douglass, The Young and the Restless

Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series
Mary J. Blige, One Life to Live
Shirley Jones, Days of our Lives
Lesli Kay, The Young and the Restless
Betty White, The Bold and the Beautiful
Eileen Davidson, The Young and the Restless

My guesses:

Guest Actor:
Tuc Watkins
Patrick Duffy
Nathan Fillion
Rick Springfield

Guest Actress:
Andrea Evans
Betty White
Finola Hughes
Shirley Jones
Tonja Walker Davidson

How about Jeanne Cooper?

I expect violence now...lol

I just remember Signy Coleman.
She was great when her character died.
Very subtle & effective.

was Alley Mills on at all in 2008?

^
Yes Alley was on quite during the first quarter of the year.

Oooohhh Signey Coleman would definitely be a strong contender. Excellent call there east/west. Or how about Kathy Hilton? I so could see them nominating her just to gain "exposure." On a more serious note, Y&R has some pretty decent choices, such as:
Michael Damien (Danny Romalotti)
Diane Salinger (Jamie Whitfield)
Casey Spooner
...plus the aforementioned Signey Coleman...

However, if anyone will win this category, it's sure to be THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL. Hell, with there casting record, this category was designed for them.

Besides singing, what did Mary do for her to be on the list?

I would vote for Duffy for Actor if they split it by gender or as guest overall. Last time they did it they just had five nominees.

Well if this is added next year it would only include people who aired in Jan 1st to December 31st 2008 so Nathan Fillon and Dan Gauthier wouldn't be eligible since they appeared in August 2007.

I wonder if any of the OLTL returns would be eligible for these categories?
