It's time to work out the daytime winners... from the daytime losers.
The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) announced earlier the nominees for the 49th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards, with winners to be announced live on Friday, June 24 at 9 p.m. ET on CBS. The ceremony will also be available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+, so don't worry — all the daytime stars will be there.
This year marks the sixteenth iteration of the Daytime Emmy Awards to be broadcast on CBS, more than any other network, following on from the last screening in 2021. Who would your picks be?
A press bulletin notes that "all awards are judged by a pool of more than 1,000 peer professionals from across the television industry, whose confidential ballots were then tabulated by the independent accounting firm of Lutz & Carr, LLP," which will surely come at some relief to any-and-all of us concerned about the legitimacy of the Daytime Emmys.
