It’s that time of the week when we look around the daytime dial and determine who emerged victorious and who should be singing the blues! Read on to see where your faves landed!<\/p>\n

Winner: Dan Feuerriegel, Days of Our Lives<\/p>\n

The actor is doing an amazing job of capturing both sides of EJ. Even as Marlena was describing him as “ruthless and amoral but with a heart,” we got to see that softer side in his interactions with Felicity and Cat.<\/p>\n
