It was announced yesterday that Sophia Myles got nominated in the ‘Best Actress / Television‘ category at this year’s SyFy Genre Awards. Fellow nominees include the following acting talents: Freema Agyeman (Doctor Who), Anna Friel (Pushing Daisies), Mary McDonnell (Battlestar Galactica) and Eve Myles (Torchwood). Sophia’s nomination marks the only nomination for ‘Moonlight‘.
While The SyFy Genre Awards cannot be considered proper industry awards they are major. So, congratulation Sophia! The SyFy Genre Awards, in existence since 1999 and considered one of the first major virtual entertainment awards, is a product of the science fiction and fantasy Web site SyFy Portal. The SyFy Genre Awards provide an opportunity for fans to honor the best of science fiction television, movies, books, comic books, and web productions for the year.
That’s right. It’s the fans who get to vote for the winners!
Voting begins June 25 right here at SyFy Portal. Readers can vote once per day for 30 days between June 25 and July 25, and winners will be announced during SyFy Portal’s 10th anniversary celebration around Aug. 13.
This is wonderful!! Sophia is finally getting recognized for her work on Moonlight!! I have to admit, if Moonlight could only have one nomination, I’m extremely glad it went to her. Her contribution to the show always seemed to be overshadowed by Alex’s , and I’m glad she’s been singled out. Congrats, Sophia. You deserve it!! (And you can count on me to do my share of voting!!!)
I’m so glad for sohia! She so deserve it!
Hello!
I think it is awesome that she is nominated for this award!
Maybe if she gets this award then more and more people will find out about moonlight and then eventualy someone will pick up the show and start a new season of Moonlight! That show was the best show ever i really dont see how they did not get enough viewers or what ever!!!
