So surprised Amelia and Hunter won for the second straight year. Hunter more so I guess. There were others who should have been recognized.

Yay for Freddie!

Did not like any of Tyra’s outfits. Also, most of the things they did did not work. Did not like the opening and then everyone saying ML’s name was not fun and had things go longer. He should just donate some money to charity, but I guess he wanted to be on everyone’s lips. The game to introduce Betty White was not good. Show us more clips, either of Betty or the nominees. Same with the Family Feud end. And Ms. J’s walk to the podium was not necessary. Didn’t see all of the fan vote results. And the giving away the vacuum cleaner–really? And the cruise–nice for those who won, but move on.

It was nice it was on TV and it wasn’t the worst award show I’ve seen, but it could have been better.

Congrats to Days for winning Best Drama. So surprised Y&R was the other winner. I thought it was going to be B&B. B&B won for best directing and writing so I guess it’s the acting that didn’t bring them the gold for best drama. (Just kidding.)

I guess if B&B and GH want to win Best Drama they need to have Eileen Davidson on their show.

Tessanne Chin did a good job. Wish I could have seen more of the clips. I think they did a nice job with the in memoriam. I liked the tribute to Days’ 50th.

I would prefer just to show clips of the nominees and give out the awards. I don’t need the game showy aspects, the rapping, the try to be cute opening, the Cinderella fan, fan audience…they didn’t work and would much rather have seen clips.

I did like the fan votes, but we didn’t see all the winners.

Didn’t like Tyra and her cohorts telling me about themselves and advertising their show. Don’t care. I won’t be watching. Give out the award.

Hope they improve things for next year. I think they can start with the host.

Vote for no host next year, love seeing Tony & Genie together again..

Some winners-Hunter King-really?…lol…well, lets just say it was a 100% improvement over last years and im grateful its on tv again!!!

Overall, I thought the Daytime Emmy’s broadcast on POP was excellent! It brought back a high level of class & respect for the genre of Daytime television & those who make it that had been GROSSLY lacking in recent years! I thought the tributes were appropriate & well done, although I would have liked to have seen more of the footage of the iconic soap super-couples being shown on the big screens at the venue, vs. the singer singing “What I Did For Love” (although she did a nice job). I feel that the shows host, Tyra Banks was WAY out of her element & came across as very nervous throughout the whole show, but that the presenters did a great job, without being corny. Personally, I think Shemar Moore should be the host next year. His respect & admiration for Daytime Drama came across so genuinely. He’s articulate & appears cool, calm & comfortable on stage. The 2015 Daytime Emmy broadcast on POP gets a BIG thumbs up from me!

It was pretty good considering CBS ruled! Tyra wasn’t that great but she was better than Kathy Griffin!

All-in all, it was a good production that if on a budget, didn’t show it. While Tyra Banks is not my cup of tea, she did very well hosting the gig. A backstage host might have enhanced the production. The show got down to the awards and didn’t have a lot of fluff. Good job.

I expected to Fast Forward through most of it only to watch when the soap awards were given out but I have to say I thought it was a good show ! Tyra was a pretty good host although I thought she was screaming a bit too much & everyone looked awkward cause that mic was so low but overall a good show , very entertaining!

I wish I had POP. I definitely would have watched.

I admit I got goose-bumps and misty-eyed at the DOOL 50th tribute. CONGRATULATIONS DOOL AND ALL THE WINNERS OF THE 2015 DAYTIME EMMYS! Thanks for brining me a lifetime of entertainment!

I liked the ceremony a lot and am grateful that Daytime got some respect after years of disrespect from previous ceremonies. POP did a great job, and Tyra was okay. As for the winners/losers, some of the acting awards had me scratching my head, and as for the Best Drama award, what does it say when 2 out of 4 nominees (out of 4 remaining soaps) win? Is that really a victory for the two shows who took home the Emmy? I’m not so sure it is.

I liked the tribute to DOOL. I wish that there had been a similar, respectful tribute to AMC when it hit its 40th anniversary. Actually, I wish there had been a respectful tribute to AMC when it was cancelled, but the Emmys were produced badly back then. I didn’t appreciate the fake-out over a big announcement being made at the ceremony, which never actually happened. That was separate from the big tease about Tony Geary presenting with Genie Francis, which was released to the public before the event and which was nice to see, but it does bug me that the only time Luke and Laura fans will get to see TG and GF together is presenting at an event like this.

Overall it was a good production and I’m glad that the ratings were pretty good. I hope they can do it again next year.

I WOULD OF LOVED MORE RED CARPET WALKS AND WHO AND WHAT THEY WORE. I LOVE SHARON CASE AND WOULD OF LOVED TO OF SEEN HER 🙂

Overall it was very well done and a huge improvement over the past several years. BUT they showed the wrong clip for Lisa LoCicero and then stopped showing clips altogether. The Guest Actor In a Drama Series should have been presented on Sunday night, not at the Creative Arts Emmys which were untelevised. And there were too many silly time consuming game skits, the viewer audience nonsense and Tyra was too long winded about her defunct modeling show and her talk show to be.

All that used up precious time that could have been used to show the actor’s clips and allow the actors more time to say their thanks. I did appreciate the ‘In Memoriam’, but I wish the red carpet had been televised. Perhaps if the show had been three hours instead of two, the actor’s clips, Guest Actor, and red carpet could have been shown. There is still a lot of work to be done but I appreciate how greatly improved this year’s show was and that it was televised.

I thought it was a good show. Much better produced show than what we’ve seen in recent years. You could tell a lot of time and effort was spent on putting the show together

I miss it being on network TV but I am really glad they are at least still having it.

I thought the production was better than last year. Still in shock that YR beat GH for best show.

I was happy for the performers that their awards were telecast this time around. Any tribute to Betty White is worthwhile IMO. BUT…I didn’t like the director’s decision to focus on singers during the clip montages instead of on the clips, which is what the audience wants to see. We want to see the retrospective along with the audience. We don’t want to see repeated closeups of a singer’s back molars. Isn’t hearing them sing enough?

It was not a perfect presentation but it was good to have the program back on cable (still odd since most of daytime programming is still broadcast based).

I was not overly thrilled with Tyra Banks and her antics. I was disappointed the memoriam and romance montages were often lost to home viewers to feature the vocalists, talented as they were.

Glad DAYS had its anniversary moment.

The Betty White tribute was fun but stagey and… Charo?!?!?!

Loved seeing Melissa Rivers and touched that she quoted her mother’s regard for daytime as resurrecting her career after the Fox mess and her personal tragedies.

Would have liked more daytime packages between segments.

No one control the speeches but they overall were lacking in content.

Loved seeing Geary and Francis together.

Hoping for more improvement in 2016. Would be nice to see more daytime dramas in the lineup! I miss the days there were a dozen or so on the air.

Beggars cannot be choosers, it was nice to have it on TV again BUT I dont think it was in HD, the sound was horrible and why didnt they have mics that moved? I specifically remember when Chad Duell spoke the microphone was down near the middle of his chest! Tyra did okay. A little over the top and obnoxious but she looked like Johnny Carson out there compared to that thing they call Kathy Griffin! It would be nice to get it back on network TV, maybe even TV LAND? They should have had it there this year since Betty White has a show on that channel. And speaking of Miss Betty, I liked the tribute they did for her and the Password game was a cute idea. ALL in all, a nice effort compared to the last couple years. Oh, for 2016, I think Lynn Herring should host. She does a good job with the Nurses Ball and she knows the room.

A very benign affair. Nothing horrible, but nothing outstanding. Instantly forgettable.

Enjoyed the show, particularly the tributes to Joan Rivers and Betty White (including Password Plus and Charo!). Also glad GH actors won so many awards.

What I did not like was Shemar Moore turning his best actress intro into a long speech about himself. Also, the stupid Matt Lauer and Ellen bit was pointless. And where was Ellen when her show won an Emmy?

I thought the show was a vast improvement over last years streaming & the HLN years. I hear the ratings were respectable too. Maybe they just might broadcast the red carpet next year to build on their success. One can hope. Tyra was ok but not my first choice for host. The CBS, Tyra & Divas promotion did border on shameless.

JFP hand picked Hunter King for the role of Summer so I knew she would win again even though I didn’t think she should have.

I thought it was great for the most part.
Didnt understand all of the constant references
to Matt Lauer, though. Did I miss something??

Just some random thoughts – I loved Amelia Heinle’s
dress! Loved seeing Genie Francis -been awhile!
Melissa Rivers – so sweet. Betty White – same!
Tyra – very, um, energetic, but not obnoxious.

Yes, that brand of vacuum cleaner is said to be fantastic,
but thought it to be an odd choice for a gift.

I am happy that after thinking POP wasn’t available
with my cable, learned it is, so I got to watch after all.

I only wish NATAS would have found a way to include Canada. I couldn’t watch any of the reels because the company they used cannot be seen outside of the States, they chose a cable channel that is not in Canada either. I missed out on most of the fun. Sure I read all about it and can see clips after the fact, but it isn’t the same as watching live, with popcorn in hand.

I realize our viewership doesn’t count in the ratings, but isn’t there money to be made by selling the rights for such a show in other countries?

Oh well, based on what I read and the clips I’ve seen it sounds like it was an okay affair- which I am glad because I think the hardworking men and woman of daytime deserve to have their day in the sun too. And I hardly congratulate all those whose work was honored either by the award itself or by by being nominated.

But in the end as I always say we are the real winners because we get to entertained by such talented men and woman in front and behind the scenes every weekday for almost the whole year. So although not American I definitely feel a part of your daytime drama “family”

A few mixed reviews here. That’s to be expected. But it sounds like it was a fun time for the most part. Just wish i could have seen it …but no POP in my region. And quite frankly, I’m not going to go through hopes to find clips of the show. Hope they get rid of that problem next year. I’m sure in would increase their viewership.

NBC and DAYS should have refused the use of Freddie Smith, Guy Wilson and Christopher Sean to push the CBS game show. Isn’t it enough to have Y&R characters/actors visit TPIR without dragging others into the self promoting pile of BS?!!!

For the most part, I enjoyed the program. Tyra Banks had a few moments which I didn’t like. I’d much rather see Regis or someone who has actually had experience on daytime TV. The Betty White tribute was very nice. Fitting (although somewhat cheesy) for the Password game intro. When the montage of clips were on, I really wanted to see the clips — not the singer. All in all, I’m just glad the show was back on television.
