I am happy with her position but I was hoping for #2. I think Susan Flannery will get #1 and that is great. Remember Susan was also Laura Horton on Days for several years before joing B&B so maybe that gave her the higher spot.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15797760773076499372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-29122281071215857602010-02-07T16:35:44.822-05:002010-02-07T16:35:44.822-05:00I had either Judith Light or Beverlee McKinsey at ...I had either Judith Light or Beverlee McKinsey at Number 1. While I think that Susan Flannery, Kim Zimmer and Erika Slezak are terrific actresses, none touches Light or McKinsey in terms of sheer acting ability. (I don't think that the number of Emmys is the definitive arbiter of acting ability.)When Light or McKinsey was on screen, I could not take my eyes off of either one.Columbushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04700198228341382524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-35191489327318470582010-02-07T15:40:45.195-05:002010-02-07T15:40:45.195-05:00I disagree.

As a matter of fact, I had Susan Flannery pegged for the #3 spot with the top spot being between Erika Slezak and Kim Zimmer and now that Erika took #3 I don't see Susan placing above Kim.

They both are elegant. They both are classy. They both have brought much respect to their genres. And, they both have commanded that high level of perfection from their co-stars by just being who they are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-72022538087196436672010-02-07T14:30:56.962-05:002010-02-07T14:30:56.962-05:00I have to say this disappointed me as well.

There's little question that Kim Zimmer is the other remaining name out there & I'm sorry, while Zimmer is a fine actress, she pales in comparison to McKinsey, Slezak & Flannery.<br /><br />Greggman7157https://www.blogger.com/profile/15420189346694125637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-91254966336035497542010-02-07T14:00:13.425-05:002010-02-07T14:00:13.425-05:00Disappointed in this one and now i the top three. ...Disappointed in this one and now i the top three. Slezak for me was the obvious choice for number one. Does anyone have more daytime emmys? Isn't she even tied with the most for an actor?<br /><br />I agree with Marlena De Lacroix, Slezak is daytime's top dramatic actress.Destinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09025403300327350977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-82994284707167060552010-02-07T10:49:35.600-05:002010-02-07T10:49:35.600-05:00#3, really?
