Good man, Ian! The research is appreciated!
Unfortunately the "Emmys.com" database does not list the 2 episodes Richards
submitted in '97, which is why I turned to the newsgroups for answers.

I believe you're incorrect on that, at least when it comes to Best
Actor/Actress or Best Supporting Actor/Actress. As a regular on a series,
an actor (or his people) may submit two episodes to the Emmy voters as an
example of their work (and in fact, those two episodes may be the only
exposure the voters have to the series in question). But the Emmy is given
for the entire season of work, not just for the examples submitted.
My understanding is that the only Emmys given for specific episodes are for
the performances of guest stars.

The "Best Actor/Actress" & "Best Supporting Actor/Actress" emmys are
officially for the year's work. The reality of the situation is, however,
they win for single (Lead) or two (Supporting) episodes. Actors are
NOMINATED by ballots submitted to all ATAS members. Nominations are based
on their overall work for the season. The five nominees then submit what
they feel is their best (or 2 best for supporting nominees) episode(s) of
the season. A judging panel, who actually has to sign a written declaration
that they will base their vote solely on the entries submitted, then watches
each entry and then votes. This is why you can have Actors who are
nominated every year & never win (ex: Angela Lansbury "Murder She Wrote") &
others who pop in with only one nomination, win, & then are never nominated
again (ex: Sela Ward "Sisters").
And this still leaves me where I was before.....wondering which 2 Richards
submitted in '97 (Emmys.com doesn't have a record of that one)

Here is the information straight from the source:
Page 16
7. Drama and comedy series are required to submit any eight episodes for the
judging panels. Episodes chosen for program nominations must be the standard
running time of the series episodes. Extended-length episodes will count as two
episodes.
