Unlike their successors, the ''Soap Opera Digest'' Awards, this accolade lacked a great deal of glamour. The statue itself was a tall geometric crystal were presented during a television show after winners were announced in the magazine. The original award was designed by the magazine's art director Janis Rogak. The magazine's Editor Ruth J. Gordon, who was founding editor made the very first presentation on Merv Griffin Show. The first awards were presented during the ''Merv Griffin show'' to Best Actor Bill Hayes and Best Actress Susan Seaforth Hayes from ''Days of Our Lives'' (which also won for 'Favorite Show'). This first award also included a special award for 'Outstanding Achievement in the World of Daytime Drama' to ''All My Children'' and ''One Life to Live's'' creator Agnes Nixon. The 1978 award were presented live during ''America Live'' from both New York and Hollywood. The 1979 show was presented on the Thursday Dec. 27, 1979 episode of the ''Dinah Shore show''. In 1980, during the height of ''Luke and Laura'', their portrayers Anthony Geary and Genie Francis won for Best Actor and Best Actress. An award for 'Favorite Performer in a Mature Role' went to ''All My Children's'' Ruth Warrick. The 1981 show incorporated many of the categories which would become a hallmark of the Soap Opera Digest Awards, such as: *'Most Exciting New Actor' (Tristan Rogers, ''General Hospital''), *'Favorite Villain' (Andre Landzaat, ''General Hospital'') *'Favorite Villainess' (Robin Mattson, ''General Hospital''). That year the awards were swept by ''General Hospital''. In 1984 the awards were replaced by the Soap Opera Digest Awards. ==Winners== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Soapy Awards」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
