Please note that a performer can now only win once per year and a show can only be represented by two winners per year. No exceptions will be made for any performer or show, so please use thoughtful consideration when making your nominations. You will have to fill out the submission form for each nominee you submit. You can submit the document up to 5 times, but each entry must be for a different performer or all of your other nominations will be disqualified. The Top 5 most nominated actresses and Top 5 actors will be placed in the poll next week to determine the Readers’ Choice Performer of the Month.
After you place your nominations take a moment to use the comments section to discuss your nominees with others. Episode number for the nominees is critically important, so discuss with others why you think a performer deserves to be recognized for a certain performance.
With Tori Anderson winning in March and Yasmine Al-Bustami winning in May, NCIS: Hawai’i performers will not be eligible for the rest of 2022. Because Mia McKenna-Bruce and Rhian Blundell tied in the September round, Vampire Academy performers will also not be eligible for the rest of 2022. The cast of Chicago PD will also not be eligible for the rest of 2022 because of Tracy Spiridakos winning in February and Patrick John Flueger winning in September. The eligibility for these shows’ performers will resume starting with the first round in 2023. All of the performers listed will have one additional chance to win during the 2022 Performer of the Year competition.
Nominations will run until December 3rd at 6 pm ET. The poll will post on December 4th at 6 pm ET.
Enter the episode number as 101 or 1.01. Either will work on the form and both will be accepted.
Please take note that any performer that won earlier in the year is no longer eligible for the rest of 2022, so please take note of the above list of winners before placing your nominations.
