DB Awards 2009! Winners Announced.

dbawards
Y&R was majorly snubbed at this year’s Daytime Emmy Awards – which comes as a shock to absolutely no one – so we at DT & DST decided to “honour” Y&R ourselves with the first ever DB Awards. Thanks to your votes we awarded the best and the worst of the show we love to hate, including Best Quad, Fanwanker of the Year and Worst Storyline.

Hear what we had to say about the winners. Listen now!

    Aubie, I can’t believe you took the time to do this, the awards look awesome. You rock girl. Did you get any sleep last night?

    • Kare says:

      Surprisingly, I actually did. *g*

      As for Lilliam winning best couple, after I recalled the survey had been posted all over the net and found out the numbers, I realized what a feat that was. Pretty good stuff.

      Chevon next! ;)

  2. dalejr89 says:

    Lilliam won best couple and best actors!! YAY!!! Thanks Aub for posting this!!! All of you did an awesome job on the DST Show.

  3. Otter1 says:

    I cannot believe Lilliam won for best couple! That poll went out beyond Unwritten Symphony members. I’m shocked, but I flove it!!!!! Love Lilliam and who they were becoming!

    I listened in to the DST show on Sunday and just had to say that I thought you all were awesome. I was really impressed.

    Well, we know that Y&R has been renewed for two more years. Hopefully, it will get better and we’ll hear you all again next year!

    Great job!

  4. Otter1 says:

    Oh yeah, my write in answer for most boring character: Victoria Newman!!! She wins, hands down!!!! Lol!

    • Kare says:

      Re: Boring character. I would normally say Boretoria but I think Chance has taken her place. My God, he’s dull and I had such hopes for him.

  5. Moni says:

    I know right, guys, that poll went out to folks in Europe (England, Poland, Germany, Italy). And, the last day, almost 60 folks from Chilly’s universe stormed the poll which led to some interesting results, but they weren’t enough to overtake Lilliam, they just tied with Lane. Go figure, folks are starting to see the benefits of Lilliam! Now if only Chevon could get off the ground!

  6. Jessy says:

    Thanks ya’ll…this was so much better than the emmy’s. And thank you for everything you do, you make Y & R watchable with your hilarious recaps and commentary. I laugh in my head while wacthing thinking about what you all are gonna say about that scene. Thank You!

  7. wicked says:

    I did not even bother watching the Shmemmys most of the actors wore things from their closets. I’m very happy Lilliam won even though they’ve been over since February. I have thought there were more of US since the online community is only 2% of soap watchers. Hoagie looks like Norm from Cheers

  8. Jewel says:

    This was so funny and I agree with 90%, I won’t go into discussion about what I don’t agree with but whoever did this, did an excellent job. I wish you could have pointed out how “Det Chance” is being overly pimp now more than anyone of the newbies.

    Wish the Marie Bell and her cronies could see this. At least they would know what some of the fans think of this mess they have created.

  9. Crystal says:

    DBs, you ladies rule!

    That screencap for the “Anticlimactic Moment of the Year – P3’s Return”, ‘Sup?, that sh!t is still effin hilarious….LMFAO

    Congrats guys…I look forward to another great awards show.

    Bravo!

  10. CKR says:

    I am so happy Lilliam won. I mean, that is something else. Lilliam isn’t even on right now and people from all over have voted for them. It’s the power of chemistry.

  11. wicked says:

    omg I can’t stop looking at Norm er I mean Hoagie. I guess its morbid curiosity. I keep lmao at eh and her “Sasha fierce” face lol

  12. Otter1 says:

    Wicked — Sasha fierce!!!! ROTFL!!!!!

  13. enchanting says:

    lol at sasha fierce

  14. Ash says:

    Aww Kare, this was such a treat, thank you. I laughed through the entire thing, and I already knew who the winner were. I’m still shocked that Lilliam won best couple and Bac got worst couple. I just KNEW that Chilly would get that destinction, but on further obsevation, I have to admit that Bac really is the worst couple.
    Sorry Soaper :( But they suck!

    Kare you ROCK, but then you already know that. :D

  15. wicked says:

    I was surprised my write in answer of sharon for worst hair won. I don’t think its ever been changed in 10 years.

  16. ron says:

    Billy Miller has got to go—he couldn’t act his way out of a paper bag!

  17. Donna says:

    I love this site. My only regret is I can’t view it while at work because when I do people always come over to see why I am laughing so hard. You made my day.

  18. PureGirl says:

    is there a lily/billy board? link please =)

  19. Joan says:

    Liliam Fans are so Sorry it’s sad.

  20. Sarah says:

    I never thought I would say this but I would give my left foot to watch Lillam (which lasted for about 5 mintues and involved running around a bookstore and rolling on the floor at Jabot) if it meant that the insanity that is Bac would stop NOW !

    • Shelly says:

      I would give both my feet, LOL! I love Lilliam and hopefully we’ll have them back on our screens at some point in the future – sooner rather than later! Thanks for putting this together!
