TV Guide Canada Hands Out Year-End Soap Opera Awards

Nelson Branco  of TV Guide Canada has handed out a slew of awards for the 2007 year in soap operas. Read through them all here, and take a look at a few examples below:

MASTER CLASS PERFORMANCES
Alicia Minshew (Kendall Hart, All My Children)
For carrying the entire show; and proving once again that Erica Kane’s offspring are always more talented. Well, except for Colin.

Jon Hensley (Holden Snyder, As the World Turns)
The most underrated actor on soaps; and a big thanks for being solely responsible for making Holden Snyder soaps’ only real man. Luke is one lucky stepson! Let’s hope you take home an Emmy in 2008 for all your efforts and hard work!

Katherine Kelly Lang (Brooke Logan, The Bold and the Beautiful)
For finally letting go.

PROTEGES: THE NEXT BIG THINGS
Austin Peck (Brad Snyder, pictured, As the World Turns)
A revelation. If you ever needed to believe in miracles; let me present you the sexy and charming Mr. Peck — finally. Yummy; he’s the next Tuc Watkins. What are Carly and Katie thinking? You’re chasing after the wrong man!

Kyle Lowder (Rick Forrester, The Bold and the Beautiful)
Beautiful, sexy and soulful – he’s daytime’s McDreamy and McSteamy rolled into one soapy package. Memo to Ashley: you’re a moron.

BethAnn Bonner (Talia Sayid, One Life to Live)
The next Sarah Brown. Move her to the frontburner stat — hell, she even makes me like Antonio — and I can’t stand the character.
