  1. My vote goes to the DIVA, the one and only Brenda Dickson. Guys, don't you think she deserves the top spot? Come on, be nice!

  2. Well, I do love Ms. Brenda. We have a number of panelists and it's a great list. I wanted to include so many people with different perspectives to ensure we didn't miss anyone. We'll begin publishing soon.

  3. Hmmm.... whilst I thinks this is interesting, I will assume thais will largely be of actresses since say the late 1970's when we have still some episodes on tape.

  4. Tony, it's a mixture. We made sure to include a wide range of panelists so that we covered as many eras as possible. For my personal list, my first hand knowledge really goes back to the mid-70s. For others, it goes WAY back. I thought it was important to capture many different perspectives.

  5. Interesting, in theory, given there are probably 40 to 50 odd female emmy winners and you consider several fine actreeses never won, ie Beverlee McKinsey, Victoria Wyndham, Maureen Garrett and Mary Stuart, I am assuming you will have hard time bringing it down to only 50
