May 17, 2010: Y&R's Peter Bergman on Stacy Haiduk Emmy snub!
Bergman said, "I am sad that Stacy Haiduk did not receive a nomination. She was the glue to this whole thing. [The doppelganger storyline] has only worked on our show because Stacy Haiduk is so brilliant at it. | Read the full interview at Michael Fairman's website.

May 16, 2010: Daytime Emmy Nominations... From Daytime Confidential: This Week in Daytime: Snubs, Lovers and Recasts: I choked at some of the people snubbed by the 37th Annual Daytime Emmy nominations. I realize there are only so many people who can be nominated in each category, not to mention sometimes less-than-stellar submission reels and backstage politics playing factors, but Stacy Haiduk, Alison Sweeney, Laura Wright, Maurice Benard, Sharon Case, Scott Evans, Brett Claywell and Ron Carlivati and the One Life to Live writing team all deserved nominations.

April 26, 2010 Y&R's Peter Bergman on the Doppelganger stories...
From TVGuide: "This is the second nip/tuck lookalike plot on Y&R right now. It has never been my favorite plot device but to the ever-loving credit of Stacy Haiduk [Patty/Emily] she has made it absolutely winning. She has gone to every limit, and has been incredibly brave. I think she has been strongly undermined by having a second character in Genoa City with the same kind of plastic surgery, and this is no reflection on Tracey Bregman [who plays doppelgangers Lauren and Sarah]. I perhaps flatter myself but I think the audience did roll with the Patty/Emily story. Then we had to sully it by trying it a second time. "

Y&R celebrated their 37th anniversary in style! Check out these pics from their party.
