I'd have to say it was the year Carol Channing beat out Carol Channing. I was soooooooo mad.

He really should have won that year, or at least be honored for his work with Channing.

Alas, I fear that day will never come. It's so depressing that one of the stage's brightest stars will never get the recognition he deserves.

Edward Albee deserved it last year but I really would have liked to see a tie with Edward Albee. They were both so deserving.

Her work has been ignored for decades. It is time for her to get her due. Who is this Tony guy anyways? They should call them the Idina's.

How could I forget Sho. She was robbed the year Mary Martin won for Sound of Music. What were the voters thinking?

I'm just trying to give great performers like Albee and Channing (and Shoey Sho Sho from Shoville) their due.

Eden is not getting that award until they give it to David Ayers! And that is final!

Let's not get too carried away now...David Ayers is great---but he is no Saycon Sengbloh!

I preferred Saycon when she went by the stage name of Ethel Merman.
