- Why is the lead so short? It's half (or less) the size of the other lists in this series. Given that this award appears to be the soap opera equivalent of the Best Picture Academy Award, I'd be very surprised if there isn't something more that can be said about it. Items like the first winner and number of shows to win the award seem like easy additions, for example.
- Done. The reason is that I do not have that many facts is that the Academy Awards are way more popular than the Daytime Emmys. This is all the informations I can recall. —

- For the record, when I said number of shows I meant the number of different shows, not the total number of awards ceremonies. Far fewer than 43 shows have won, by the looks of it. I still think the lead is short and that more could be done to get at least two paragraphs out of it, like in your other lists. Whatever tricks you used to stretch those lists out would be helpful here.

- The writing in the new areas is questionable. I wouldn't consider "Also, at the time there were few categories, this one, the top actor, and the top actress etc." to be FL-caliber prose, and "It is was given to thirtheen diffrent programs" has more glitches than usable writing, even though the idea is good.

"held in 1972 when the award was orginnally called...". Spot the typo? Two supporters obviously didn't.
"where this award was renamed Outstanding Drama Series and it is given in honor of a daytime drama." Remove "it is"?
The Ref column shouldn't have any colors.
- IMO, I do not see the problem. Is this a criteria from a FL? I do not recall this being one. This issue was not brought up in the previous FLs. Thanks for the comments! —

- There are certain expectations regarding appearance, and I'm not certain we can say that a ref column constitutes "suitable use" of colors per Criterion 5a. It's somewhat subjective, but I don't recall seeing this in an FL before, and I don't think the look is that attractive. If I had noticed this in a previous FLC of yours, I'd have pointed it out there, but now is as good a time as any to make improvements.

- I still do not see the problem. However, if we are going to resolved this, pleas tell me how to remove the colour since I have no idea how to do it? Plus, the are plenty of FLs that uses colours, for his example ,
this,
this,
this and
this and my my FLs. IMO, this is ridiculous and should be resolved. —

- I absolutely despise this look, but since it's in other lists by authors I greatly respect, I don't see much choice but to strike this one. This is still not something I want to see become a trend at FLC.
