Daytime Emmy Nominations Snub Susan Lucci, "The View"

NEW YORK — Often snubbed for a Daytime Emmy in the past, Susan Lucci has been jilted as a nominee this year.

Missing along with the "All My Children" veteran is "The View," overlooked as a best talk nominee, though that ABC show's five panelists (Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Sherri Shepherd and Barbara Walters) are sharing a nomination for best host, competing against Ellen DeGeneres, Rachael Ray and "Live!" co-hosts Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa.

Nominations for the 36th Annual Daytime Emmys were announced Thursday by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, which administers them.

Overall, PBS led in nominations with 56, followed by ABC (50), syndicated programming (49), CBS (30) and NBC (20).

Vanessa Williams will host the awards broadcast, which will air live from Los Angeles on Aug. 30 on the CW network.

Debbi Morgan ("All My Children"), Maura West ("As the World Turns"), Susan Haskell ("One Life to Live"), Susan Flannery ("The Bold and the Beautiful") and Jeanne Cooper ("The Young and the Restless") are the nominees for lead actress in a drama series.

Thorsten Kaye ("All My Children"), Peter Reckell ("Days of Our Lives"), Anthony Geary ("General Hospital"), Christian LeBlanc ("The Young and the Restless") and Daniel Cosgrove (the soon-to-be ending "Guiding Light") are nominated in the lead dramatic actor category.

Public Broadcasting Service dominated the outstanding children's show category with "Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman," "From the Top at Carnegie Hall" and "Postcards From Buster," which also included Discovery Kids' "Adventure Camp."

The lifetime achievement award goes to PBS' "Sesame Street."

It's not a talk show - everyone is either yelling or hawking something - Barbara being the worst (she's still trying to sell her book) - she kept EH on because she thought it would help the ratings but it's probably lost her as many viewers as she's gained - people like intelligent discourse - that's not what you get on the View - Sherri is like someone from Jay Leno's Jaywalking segments (she wasn't sure if the world is flat or round) -- and Elizabeth just channels Sean Hannity and throws around terms and facts she doesn't understand - point in case -- just watched video of Jesse Ventura giving her a lesson in debate. . .

[progressivelady]

he put her in check it was awsome.

[Bluejay00234]

Great!

4 liberals and 1 conservative and people want to know why? Who wants to watch anything these days with a liberal view? Nobody! Anything liberal is always out done by anything conservative on TV or radio. Its that simple.

[progressivelady]

liberal's tell the truth rightwing nut's have to lie and make stuff up, and scare and put fear into people, that is why fixed new's is so popular, and when you look at who actually watch's that so called network make stuff up network, not so impresive when it come's to intelligence, on the other hand were all so sick of EH and her faux new's talking point's, and her getting away with lie after lie, better talk show's have come up, Ellen who is a liberal will tkae this year's emmy again.

Maybe someone will visit your planet one day.

[SiberianRat]

Why is it a snub? It's a terrible show.

[helgathewitch]

Snub away!!

[NuAgeDok]

Time to bust up this team and send them packing

Hasselbeck to Fox News

Whoopi back to stand-up

Behar subbing for Larry King

Sherri Sheppard to Sesame Street

The only one laughing is Rosie - getting canned from this sorry gig was the best thing that ever happened to her

[NuAgeDok]

Oh and I forgot Barbara -

she can just retire and pamper her poo poo or whatever

[JanSP1971]

I agree with your post except for one thing Rosie did not get canned. she had a one year contract and did not renew it. Her year was up and after the crap the Views ex-poducer pulled on her with the help of his republican talking head Hasselbeck Rosie took the right move and left a few days early.

here here!

A bunch of gossipy old broads chatting is not Emmy material.

[OhComeOnNow]

Isn't Karma a harsh mistress. Actually, NOTHING on Daytime deserves an award, but they want to be self congratulatory, so there you go.

[OhComeOnNow]

Garafolo is nauseating. Even more annoying that Sheppard, because she comes across a knowitall, where Sharri is just hapless.

[truthglow]

Yes, Shari is a "know-nothing."

[Applecheeks]

She comes across to you as a know it all because she knows a lot. You can't keep up with her.

[PresidentRobertBooth]

The View needs to get rid of Goldberg, Shepherd, and Hasselbeck.

Those three have never intentionally said anything intelligent.


Beher, Walters, Garofalo and Maddow would be a good line up.

I'd like to suggest an intelligent female conservative to add to the show, but "intelligent" and "conservative" are mutually exclusive.

[Martha12]

Only 104 comments? Wow, folks can't even be bothered to come and laugh at them any more.

Nobody loves OR hates "the view", but EVERYBODY is fed up with it.

[OhComeOnNow]

No, I hate it. 100%.

[Bariis]

I think they need Rosie back!

[truthglow]

No. It's time to stop!

[JerryTheAngel]

Elisabeth was aghast and insulted at Wanda Sykes and how she joked about Rush Limpblob. But when Michael J Fox was on the show and Joy asked him about Limpblobs accusation that he was faking his Parkinson symptoms, she said ever so quietly ( I had to rewind it a few times and play it to make out what she was saying)"That was uncalled for".

[Okieborn]

This Sherrie and Hasselback and Whoopie need to go Puleeeze !!
I use to watch and was a big fan of view until they added the three and now !!
No Thanks !!

[skippyB]

The show's annoying. Whoopie and Joy are wonderful - informed, funny, intelligent. The two younger women are fools, one self-righteous, the other, well-meaning, but pathetic. I think the show does a disservice to women under 40. Time for new blood under 40 with IQ's over 40.
