General Hospital spoilers reveal that Max Gail is hitting it out of the park as Mike Corbin and his powerhouse performances leave no doubt that he deserved an Emmy in recognition of his nuanced and poignant work.

Why Max Gail deserved an Emmy just isn’t up for debate. He has been giving one dynamic performance after another on GH and his latest work is a testament to his incredible skill and talent as an actor.

However, once the Emmy’s were announced fans noticed Max was not nominated.  Max headed to twitter to clear things up.  And that is that dear Celebrating The Soaps fans.  Max did not submit this year!

In my case I didn’t submit this year. I loved being nominated and the honor if actually winning, but not others losing. If Mo submitted and wasn’t nominated that surprises me, because he’s awesome.
