Vote for your choices of the following:

best couple -  Mason and Julia.  Cruz an Eden were good except for the
fact that they started to get a little too routine--you can always
expect Mason and Julia to light up the screen with a lot of witty,
intelligent repartee.


worst couple -  Cruz and Kelly: I just can't get used to a guy with as
much integrity as Cruz running off with his now-insane (or whatever)
wife's sister. CC and Sophia:  Come ON, guys, either get together or
get on with your lives already.  I can't even count all of Sophia's
stupid affairs on both hands, and they're all the SAME!!


best actor - Lane Davies or A Martinez.  Only thing about A is that
his role has gotten to be a bit repetitive, since he's always the cop
who's running of investigating and/or rescuing people, which is a
shame, since he's such a great actor.  Nicholas Walker could fit here
too, since he did such a great job of making us all hate Frank.  Still
gives me goosebumps to think about that guy sometimes.


worst actor - whoever plays Ken.  He makes me ill, but that may just
be because he reminds me an awful lot of a slimeball I know...Or maybe
Rafe, but then the one-sidedness of Rafe may not be the actor's fault.


best actress - Nancy Grahn/Robin Mattson/Sydney Penny:  Nancy Grahn is
simply delightful and needs no further comment.  Robin Mattson keeps a
somewhat repetitive role fresh and keeps us all laughing.  Sydney
Penny needs no further comment either.  Kim Zimmer is quite good as
well, but it's unfortunate that she's stuck with bursting out in tears
or repeating herself lately--every scene with McCabe sounds exactly
like all the others, and every time she sees Warren, she says that
something is "the worst possible thing you could do right now."


worst actress - Whoever plays Lisa.  Ugh.  


worst plot inconsistency - Um, none that I can thnk of right now, but
I'm sure something will come to mind as soon as I post this ;)


best replacement by actor/actress - Definitely Robin Mattson replacing
Linda Gibboney.


worst replacement by actor/actress  - From what I hear, Justin Deas'
replacement was pretty bad.  I only remember one brief replacement,
afte which Deas returned (if I correctly recall--memory is a little
fuzzy).  Sure am glad I missed that one.

funniest character (male) - This one is hard--the three that
immediately come to mind are Keith Timmons, Bunny, and Lionel.  Lionel
probably not so much as the others, but he just plain cracks me up.
That whole storyline with Bunny's Italian Uncle trying to shoot
whoever that was (Mason?) was hilarious too. 


funniest character (female) - Gina.  Who else could possibly hold a
candle to her? 


funniest storyline - Anything with Keith and Gina.  Also a lot of
Mason and Julia stories were quite funny.


hottest stud - Jack Wagner.


best looking male - Jack Wagner ;)


best looking female - I'm not much of a judge of which female is best
looking, but I can say I wouldn't mind looking like Sydney Penny. 


best storyline - I think it's a tie between BJ/Frank and Eden's rape
(didn't see Julia's, so I can't really judge)


worst storyline - Just about anything with Sophia and some stud in it.


best male character - Mason, with Warren comeing in a close second.


best female character  - Julia


worst male character  - Rafe 


worst female character -  Lisa.  When will this chick get a life??
Aurora would also improve greatly if they gave her another dimension
or two.  She's worse than a sheet of paper.


hottest stud chained to a bed - Warren


Gina's most harebrained scheme - Trying to hypnotise Mason into
becoming Sonny again with those ocean sounds and stuff. 


character you wish they'd never gotten rid of - Robert Barr always
stirred up a hornet's nest, but I don't know how/why the character
left, so this comment may be inappropriate.  I always thought Rick
Castillo and Kelly would have been an interesting pair, but I never
got to find out.


character you wish would pop in for a visit - Rick Castillo could
create some trouble, especially with a thunder-and-lightning entrance
like his first arrival in SB.  Kirk Cranston is also about due for a
visit--it would be great (even if it would be a bit of a stretch) if
he'd been the one who killed Frank to get back at Cruz somehow.


favorite villain/ess - Frank/Kirk


most underused character/actor - Rosa/Minx/Dreyfus/Mason/Julia


>And a grand prize for those who can complete the Capwell family tree
>(including all marriages in order)!  I wouldn't know where to start.

Yeah, RIGHT.



Nancy
