This year’s 50th Daytime Emmys will move from its planned June 16 ceremony to an undetermined later date.
Key categories on the Daytime Emmys focus on soap operas, which fall under WGA guidelines, and talk shows — most of which also employ WGA members. With the strike ongoing, it’s unlikely nominees would cross picket lines to attend the show.
Pivots are nothing new to the Daytime Emmys. In 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and stay-at-home orders, the telecast was delayed two weeks, and then reinvented as a mostly pre-taped, two-hour special produced remotely. That year, presenters filmed five different envelope openings — and every nominee in the major categories presented were asked to tape an acceptance speech and send it to the show.
Last year, the Daytime Emmys returned to a live, in-person event at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium, and “General Hospital” was the big winner with five awards — including best daytime drama. This year’s event, which was supposed to take place at downtown Los Angeles’ Westin Bonaventure hotel, was announced as part of a two-year deal with CBS., landing 19 nominations this year — the most of any program .
This means that game shows have now migrated to the Primetime Emmys; meanwhile, children’s and family programming categories have already been removed from both shows and relocated to a new Children’s & Family Emmy Award competition and ceremony, the first of which took place this past December. Also, instructional/how-to programming is now considered strictly the purview of the Daytime Emmys, regardless of daypart.
The Daytime Emmy Awards have recognized outstanding achievements in television programming and crafts since 1974. Separate from the June 16 that was supposed to be telecast live on CBS and Paramount+, the Daytime Emmys Lifestyle & Creative Arts Ceremony was originally slated to take place the next day, on June 17. The kudos are produced by NATAS and Associated Television International.
