Shelly, no idea about the talk shows, sorry. There ought to be something at Soap Central, non?
I have a feeling that Doug Davidson will win this year for best actor. It's been ages since his character had anything meaty. I don't think he has anywhere near the appeal of Peter Bergman, but it's time for him.
