daytimeroyaltyonline.com/topic/8509390/1/Days pretty much got snubbed. Notable nominations: Lead Actor: James Scott (EJ) Younger Actor: Chandler Massey (Will) Writing (which is kinda funny given how much people complain about this! ) Minor nominations in Music Direction and Technical Direction.

Wow... The crazy thing is I will sometimes watch the other soaps and think how bad the acting is compared to Days.

Days has traditionally been snubbed by the Emmys, but we always (well, we used to always) clean up at the People's Choice Awards and other fan based awards. I'm glad we're being noticed at all.
I saw that James entered the scenes from when Sami shot him. You can rewatch it here if you like:
I thought that was some of his finest work and I whole-heartedly agree with his nomination. Congrats to him. I think Ali may have been robbed, but I'm assuming the other women stood out more. I think this year might be hers (meaning she'll win next year).
I think the writing last year (Synd-napping, EJ gets shot, etc) WAS better than it's been recently (not including the recent awesomeness). The crappy stuff most people complained about was Johnny's cancer and EJ using the kids as pawns, but that was mostly just October-December. I think the beginning of last year was far better than the latter part.
As for Chandler ("Will"), I don't remember anything spectacular from him, so I'm a bit surprised at his nomination. I'm happy for him, and I think he will totally rock it this year, but I'm not sure he will win. Good luck to him though!

It's good when Days gets any nominations since most years there are none for the actors. Will didn't do anything that I can remember so I doubt Chandler Massey would win.
