Well, I'd like to thank all of the people like Elphaba43 and Little Miss Elphie and all of the other Wicked freaks for having a category that could have honored many great replacements from several shows, now honor subpar replacements from a once good, now subpar show.
Now, now, jv...You're wrong. Wicked was ALWAYS subpar.

I am surprised that Lieutenant and History Boys did not get more nominations. Cannot believe Gerety and Gleeson were not nominated. Totally agree about Land and Broderick.

Now now, Wicked isn't my favorite show either. And, I don't agree that they should have filled up that female replacement category, but, of the four of them, Megan Hilty TOTALLY deserves a nod. I think she was the only good thing about the show when I saw it the second time.
Will Chase, Rent
Aaron Lazar, The Light in the Piazza
Jonathan Pryce, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
How might one pick from those three for favorite replacement?

I voted on these.
Exactly, practically everyone I know nominated Orfeh for Diva performance and nothing! What, did some shows/people hire telemarketing firms to sit and vote all day? Still not as bad and ridiculous as the DD's though.
I'm thrilled Will Chase got a nomination. This man totally deserves some recognition!
