INTERVIEW: OLTL's Trevor St. John (Todd)
St. John tells TV Guide Canada's Nelson Branco: "The reason why I haven’t put my name up for Emmy consideration in the past couple of years is because I had a very negative emotional reaction to the judging process. I did submit my name a few years ago [during Todd’s execution, but failed to make it past the preliminary nomination round]. I didn’t like the feeling of judging my peers’ work. It didn’t feel good. I don’t mind having private judgments about actors, so being expected to score my peers professionally on a piece of paper, well, [I felt uncomfortable]. The other thing I grapple with is, how we in the acting community can fairly judge who the best actor is? I’d rather judge the best performance, not the best actor, because we’re not all playing the same role. Since I couldn’t judge, I felt as if I shouldn’t participate on any level."

The quote of the new year so far comes when Branco mentions Dena Higley to St. John. Read the full interview to see it.

SARA A. BIBEL: A Supercouple... OMFG
"Finally, there is a rootable soap couple. They've got it all: believable internal and external obstacles, a well paced storyline that is equally character and plot driven. They're played by two talented actors who look great together. Wonder who I'm talking about? I'll give you a hint. They aren't in daytime. I've fallen head over heels for GOSSIP GIRL's Chuck and Blair. They're the closest thing to an honest to God super couple on television right now."
