Ahh! The Lead Male Actor. Somewhat of an anomaly in the female-dominated world of soaps. Which leads to the question: can you have a "lead" male or all they all really supporting? The exception to that question is always General Hospital where almost all of the storylines are driven from male characters (ya know, mobsters, rapists). And that soap brings us the two strongest contenders.
Maurice Bernard (Sonny, GH) - Worried about Michael and Carly, Sonny confesses to A.J.'s murder; Sonny convinces Carly to get professional help.
Anthony Geary (Luke, GH) - Luke sings to a comatose Lucky; Luke begs Lucky to come out of his coma before taking him off of life support.
Robert Newman (Josh, GL) - News of Reva's supposed pregnancy leaves Josh reeling; after angrily urging Jonathan to be a better person, Josh warns Reva that he might not always be there for her.
Ron Raines (Alan, GL) - After paying a visit to a very much alive Philip, Alan is arrested for his murder; Alan confesses to Philip's shooting.
Thorsten Kaye (Zach, AMC) - Maria and Zach say farewell; Zach stuns Kendall and himself by admitting that's he falling in love.
Who will win: Anthony Geary
Who should win: Anthony Geary
Two outstanding episodes from Mr. Geary will garner him another win. Like his female version in the lead category (Susan Flannery), Anthony Geary is the standard bearer of consistently good performances (even if I hate his character).
Who could win: Never rule out Maurice Bernard, but his tapes were not as good as Geary's.
