User blog:Cbcarter34/ABN dominates the Daytime CableACE Awards

Last night was a good night for ABN as the network dominated the Daytime CableACE Awards (Night One). The night began with Tom Slater winning Best Game Show Host for Second Chance and Kaylen Higgins winning Best Talk Show Host for Kaylen. Then RDN got into the awards with Marnie Schulenburg winning Best Supporting Actress for her role on As the World Turns. Lawrence Furdge wins best Supporting Actor for his role in My Family.

Then MyTV got into the awards with Kristen Alderson winning Best Actress for her role in One Life to Live, and she dedicated the award to the late Agnes Nixon (creator of One Life to Live and All My Children also airing on MyTV), who died last year. Jim Taylor picked up Best Actor for his role in Timeless. Rainbow Brite picked up the award for Best Animated Program.

In the final portion of the evening, ABN picked up Best Morning Program for Sunrise America, Best Talk Show for Kaylen, and Best Game Show for Ultra Password, but the biggest shock was that RDN picked up Best Drama (Daytime) with As the World Turns.

Overall, ABN picked up seven awards last night, with RDN picking up 3 awards, and MyTV picking up 1. It should be interesting to see if ABN can carry on that momentum heading into tonight's Primetime CableACE awards.
