Friday night, the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences’ (NATAS) 49th annual Daytime Emmy Awards were handed out in 15 categories on a live telecast on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.  When the dust settled, it was ABC’s General Hospital who took the night’s top prize for Outstanding Daytime Drama Series.

This marks GH’s continued record-breaking number of wins in this category and brings it up to 15 victories for the iconic show, which is currently in its 59th year on the air.  GH’s executive producer, Frank Valentini accepted the award on behalf of everyone connected with the show, when Drew Barrymore presented the final award of the night.

The night also brought with it the historic win of The Young and the Restless’ Mishael Morgan (Amanda Sinclair). The actress became the first black actress in Daytime Emmy history to ever take home the Lead Actress Daytime Emmy.  In the emotional highpoint of the evening, in terms of acceptance speeches and significance, Morgan spoke to the current generation breaking glass ceilings.

Morgan expressed: “We are breaking glass ceilings left right and center and I am so honored to be a vessel and to experience this moment. Everybody out there today, we can do this thing called equality and unity together.”  In her speech, Mishael shared: “I was born on a tiny island in the Caribbean, and I’m now standing on an international stage and I am being honored regardless of the color of my skin, regardless of my passport, for being the best at what I do, Now there are little girls around the world and no matter what the industry, the vocation they can strive to be the best.”

Veteran actor, John McCook who has played Eric Forrrester on The Bold and the Beautiful for over 35 years, finally won his first ever Emmy after four previous nominations in the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series.

The Supporting Actor and Actress in a Drama Series trophies went to two standouts from General Hospital, Kelly Thiebaud (Britt) and Jeff Kober (Cyrus), while Nicholas Alexander Chavez (Spencer), added another mantle to the GH trophy case with his first win for Outstanding Younger Performer.

Days of our Lives writing team led by Ron Carlivati took home the gold for Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series, while GH won for Direction.

The biggest winner in terms of total gold belonged to The Kelly Clarkson Show. When all was said and done, between the Creative Arts ceremonies held last weekend, and last night, the talk show took home 7 awards including: Outstanding Entertainment Talk Show and Talk Show Host. General Hospital followed with five total wins for Daytime Emmys 2022.

The ceremonies featured DAYS Suzanne Rogers (Maggie) anchoring the Lifetime Achievement Award presentation to her longtime co-star John Aniston (Victor), who was not present, with the help of John’s daughter, Jennifer Aniston, who was seen on tape.

Susan Lucci (Ex-Erica, All My Children) made her first public appearance since the passing of her beloved husband, Helmut Huber and introduced the In Memoriam segment.  Grammy-winner Michael Bolton performed his classic tune “How Am I Supposed to Live Without You” during the tribute.

Entertainment Tonight’s Kevin Frazier and Nischelle Turner were the hosts for the telecast, and with the overturning of the Supreme Court Roe vs. Wade decision on everyone’s mind last night, Turner gave a nod to how she and so many others felt, when Frazier told her how nice she looked in her dress. Nishcelle commented, “I chose this dress. It was my choice.”  That moment received huge applause from the audience in attendance.

Check out the full winners circle list from last night’s 49th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards below.

On the plus side General Hospital won 5 awards out of it’s 7 categories and it richly deserved them! I was also happy for John McCook and Ted King – not necessarily my first choices but all of those categories had terrific winners!

But I have to vent about the ridiculous choice for Best Actress. Sigh. My problems with Mishael Morgan winning were many: there were 3 better choices from her own show – Sharon Case, Melissa Clare Egan and Camryn Grimes – were all WAY better than her in 2021; Amanda is NOT a lead character on Y&R; her storyline was a total snoozefest; she was last in every single fan poll while Cynthia Watros – who deserved to win – was first in every single fan poll; CBS has now robbed GH actresses of the Emmy six years in a row. I completely disagree with this choice the panelists made. There was somebody obnoxious online who kept on repeating endlessly that she would win, which made me very nervous. I know it’s just a silly award but I enjoy awards shows despite my knowing how dumb they are! Mishael Morgan shouldn’t have even been nominated let alone win and I don’t care what anybody else has to say about it.

I don’t get why they couldn’t have taped a short acceptance speech from John Aniston.

That song from Michael Bolton was a time-waster.

The hosts were unobtrusive and kept things moving along fairly briskly.

I would have preferred actual clips of all the acting nominees. The clips packages were excellent but why was so much of what was on the GH package from 2022 rather than 2021?

Just super happy with General Hospital’s five wins! Wish it had won the other two categories as well though.

Haters gonna hate. At least be gracious and nice when others besides GH wins awards.

Laura Wright was robbed though!

Totally agree!

Well, they won’t even be nominated next year…. considering most of the scenes which would usually end up on Emmy reels are being taped with the temp-hires doing the scenes.

Wow…#BitterBettyPartyOfOne

Always negative. Be grateful GH was the biggest winner. You need to admit that you don’t like Mishael Morgan nor the CBS soaps. Be happy for once in a lifetime

Mishael is a good solid actress but she simply didn’t deserve to win this year – there were too many much more deserving actresses who ought to have been recognized for their work instead of her. I enjoyed her work as Hillary but her work as Amanda hasn’t been interesting to watch. I was happy with 7 of the 9 winners this year in the daytime drama categories.

Hi Richard! While I believe MM is a beautiful and talented actress when given the material, she just wasn’t on very much this past year. Basically, she was in the background holding Devin’s hand as he idiotically fought for shared custody of the Newman-Abbott-Winters-Chandler baby. So Ned less to say, her nomination and subsequent win was puzzling.

Give it a rest……………It’s just sad to see you so worked up over MM’s win when she deserved it. SHUT UP and move on. GH won the most and you can’t even be happy about that.

Derrick, I believe you said that already. See above.

And I’ll say it again!

I agree on many of your points, Richard and I don’t find them “hateful” in the slightest. Yes, Mishael Morgan’s win was historic, dramatic, and important. But…and it’s a big one…Amanda Sinclair is in no way a leading character. How can she be leading when Devon, her primary scene partner, is a supporting role? Doesn’t jive even by their own rules. Yes, she’s a wonderful actress but fair is fair. Then…we should have clips from ALL the acting categories; I think most fans will agree on that. It definitely heightens the suspense. On the credit side, Kelly Thiebaud, Jeff Kober, and terrific Nicholas Chavez were most deserved winners and I was thrilled by this. I’m also grateful to have the show televised; that was a treat.

Agreed, And I don’t “hate Mishael Morgan” at all – she was in the wrong category and there were too many other actresses more deserving, that’s my opinion – she won and maybe next year the winner will be more deserving.

As negative as you have been about her on your posts for quite a while, you do HATE MM……..so I think it’s time for you to admit it.

Soaphound! Well said! I agree on all counts. I can’t even recall what Amanda’s main story was this last year. But I do vividly recall how Sharon stalled Nicholas from giving her the news of what she already knew- that Rey had died. Brilliant and realistic portrayal. Jeff Kober is a mad genius at playing the overly sensitive villain who is a killer, but also easily gets his feelings hurt. Nicholas Chavez is such a unique and riveting actor. He reminds me a bit of Rudolph Valentino. Kelly Thiebaud is also a naturally gifted actor. I didn’t know the Daytime Emmys was televised this year, and sadly missed it.

Harry
I remember what Amanda’s main story was last year, didn’t she help Devon take care ofthe baby when he came to visit, oh, and draw up the contract for he and Abby to be Co-parents.

Harry and Violet, I believe Amanda also had the unending, uninteresting story involving her grandfather being responsible for the death of her own father. Remember, at first she suspected Victor was involved, but was proven wrong. I think that was this voting year also. I try to force that story from my mind, like I did when I had chicken pox.

Well, we all know your true feelings

Stop picking on Richard for having a different opinion from your own.

He needs to be picked on as negative and complicated as he is ALL THE TIME………..I can’t stand GH but I don’t obsess over it as much as he does!

Derrick. I’m sorry. All I know about Richard is that he sometimes harbors contrary opinions.

He doesn’t realize how ANNOYING he can be with his negativity and he needs to tone it down

That it took until 2022 for a woman of color to win best lead actress is sad, especially with the great Debbi Morgan having so many good years at AMC (she did win a supporting award in the late 80s).

Wishful temporary stunt casting – Debbi as Portia’s mom on GH. Heck, they can resurrect her character, Ellen from the PC days if they choose. Imagine Debbi and Vernee Watson (Stella) getting into a verbal takedown- now that’s good soap.

So though ms Morgan wasn’t my first choice people think that gh has been robbed by cbs multiple times. I on the other hand am disappointed at always seeing the gh slant by no means whatsoever should gh have won best soap. The hospital fans are too funny they think there show should win every category so nice to see others get recognition and on a final note I hate I repeat hate the younger category all lumped into one

Well, my dreams of Carlivati being fired have gone up in smoke. Those other shows must be really bad if he is the best. Or Ron has, as my Dad used to say, “Pictures of the whole bloody affair”.

So…. my storyline really WAS a big hit after all! And look how fast things in Salem fell apart after I left.

The panelists vote based on TWO episodes only! Ron’s overall storyline arcs are poor writing but the panelists don’t actually watch the whole entire year. That is why GH can’t win in this category in my opinion – individual episodes really aren’t the point of GH’s writing, which is accumulative in its impact.

Some of us are called haters just because we don’t agree. We just have different opinions. M.M certainly did not deserve best actress. Those judges can’t judge, that’s for sure.M.M was far better when she played her other character. This time she’s just someone hanging off of Devon’s arm with nothing worthwhile coming out of her mouth. John McCook is great, have watched him so many years but to give him an award for E.D and then pimping out his wife to another man, it took something he didn’t have but wasn’t worth an Emmy. Like Richard, Iam very happy for GH wins.

Hey Violet. I agree with you. While I think MM
is a stunning and talented actress, this year just wasn’t her year. All she did was hold Devon’s hand while he tried to lactate, er, I mean, while he fought for shared custody. Now she’s baby sitting her rather randy and bratty baby sister. She’s always on the sidelines of somebody else’s story. In my opinion, Sharon Case was the standout performer.

I was thrilled to be able to see everyone in one room again! Overall, I was very happy with the show.

As a GH fan, I was over the moon with their wins! I was also happy to see John McCook finally win an Emmy. I don’t watch Y&R or B&B, but was glad to see the love spread around. Scratched my head when DAYS won for writing, but I’ve watched that show since I was in kindergarten. So, bully for DAYS.

It was so nice to see Suzanne Rogers on stage. It’s a shame the teleprompter seemed to be giving so many people so much trouble, including her. Dear John Aniston richly deserved his award.

Susan Lucci’s appearance was very touching. It was nice to see her in the mix again. Someone hire her stat!

I liked Michael Bolton’s songs and thought they fit in perfectly.

Congratulations to all the nominees and all the winners. As a soap fan, I certainly won last night! Thank you CBS and NATAS!

Congrats to General Hospital as Best Daytime Drama! Kelly, Jeff, and Nicholas had a great year. Need Jeff Kober back on the show pronto. Should have got Writing to go with Directing. Surprised that Kimberlin Brown did not take Supporting Actress but she will easily win next year. Happy for John McCook after 35 years. Not aware of any DOOL or Y&R work.

Very happy for Mishael Morgan!
Now let’s up her story finally!
Bring back her mother and give her a meaty story that finally showcases her talent! Not like last year in which after building up her story Josh Griffith wrapped it up offscreen in his typical horrible anti clamatic story! Maybe get Diane to hire her privately which cause a rift between her and Phyliss!
While we’re at it can we finally be rid of Josh Griffith!? What’s taking Sony / CBS to hire a real headwriter!?

It was so wonderful to see a real Emmy telecast with everyone present in the same room for the first time in a long time, and back on broadcast TV. I thought it was a well produced show for the most part. No cheesy skits or unnecessary filler or BS like we’ve seen in years past.

My only complaints were it would have been nice to see clips of the nominees in all the categories, particularly since NATAS no longer releases the Emmy reels to the public in advance of the show anymore, which I think is a great disservice to the viewers.

And what was with the cheesy movie soundtrack music when the winners would come to the stage to accept their awards? Someone from GH wins, I want to hear the GH theme, someone from Days wins, I want to hear the Days theme, and so forth. That should be an Emmy award show basic. It’s not that hard.

As a GH fan, I was thrilled to see them win their 15th Best Drama Series award. I have no idea what shows they submitted since they don’t release that information anymore, either. Congrats to Jeff Kober, Kelly Thiebaud, and Nicolas Chavez on their wins! All very much deserved.

I remember saying to a friend when the episode aired last year that if Kober submits the scenes where he was holding Laura and Portia hostage, has sort of a mental breakdown and gets shot, he’ll win an Emmy, he was that good that day. It appeared those were the scenes he submitted, based on the all too brief clip they showed. I was glad to be right.

I’m not gonna be one of those spoiled GH fans and say that they should have won every award. Every fan of each show thinks their favorite show was robbed when they don’t win.

Even though I don’t watch B&B, I know people that do and I know what a legendary actor he is in the business, so congrats to John McCook for winning his first Emmy after 35 years on the show.

And congrats to Mishael Morgan for being the first African American to win Best Lead Actress. I can appreciate and respect the significance any time a glass ceiling gets broken in the entertainment industry, or any walk of life for that matter.

I truly think actors and other nominees should make the effort to attend awards ceremonies when nominated. Jennifer Aniston could have appeared on video with her father if he couldn’t attend. Kelly Clarkson was a no show too. The viewers of these shows deserve that. The nominees certainly deserve their privacy but can fit in a major awards show.

Kelly Clarkson opted to be with her kids instead of being at the show, which was announced from the stage.

Congratulations to Days, John, and Mishael.

I wish John Aniston had been there, but it was great to see Suzanne.

Kevin and Nishcelle did a great job.

Rosie O’Donnell Says She Will Return to ‘The View’ During its Season 30

Published

By

Rosie O'Donnell

Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.

The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.

The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW

As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.

However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.

O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”

Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”

You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.

Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.

Television Academy and NATAS Open Reunification Talks After Split Almost 50 Years Ago

Published

By

Emmys

In what could prove to be a massive shake-up ahead, both the TV Academy (ATAS), who presides over the Primetime Emmys, and the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS), who preside over the Daytime Emmys, are in exploratory reunification discussions to merge the two organizations into one.

Both sides received an overwhelming vote and support from their boards to evaluate what a unified Academy could look like. However there is no formal calendar at this juncture for the discussions. In addition, because of the ongoing unification talks that should occur, the TV Academy board has voted to extend all current sitting Governors’ terms by one year so they can see the process through.

Boards at both organizations voted overwhelmingly to evaluate what a unified Academy could make possible: a strong vision for the Academy’s future, more effective thought leadership for the industry, broader service and support for members coast-to-coast, and new momentum and opportunities across the full complement of national Emmy competitions.

AFTER NEARLY 50 YEARS, CAN THE EMMYS BE UNDER ONE BANNER?

In a joint statement, ATAS and NATAS shared, “Television remains the most powerful medium we have to shape culture and prompt conversations that define us—no matter the size of the screen, With the business of television undergoing such a monumental transformation, this is the right moment to explore a reunification of our Academies, providing our members and our industry with a bolder voice advocating for them and a stronger partner to navigate the future with them.”

If the reunification talks continue, this would be the first time since the two Emmy organizations split back on June 30, 1977 that they have tried to come together, all of this after almost three decades of often uneasy and strained tension between the two.

The most recent joint change came in 2022 when a move of the game show categories went from NATAS to ATAS’ and now are in the Primetime Emmys.

Deadline notes that a unification of the two television academies who overall preside over nighttime and daytime programming would be similar how SAG and AFTRA used to represent performers from completely different dayparts of work.

Could the Daytime Emmys finally see some love in primetime and have their major categories televised as part of the annual kudofest every September? Stay tuned.

Meanwhile, the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony will take place live on Monday, September 14th starting at 8:00 p.m. ET / 5:00 p.m. PT and air on NBC and stream on Peacock emanating from the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles. While, the 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards will take place on Friday, October 30, time to be announced, live from the Hollywood Palladium and will be streamed on watchtheemmys.tv

The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) is a service organization dedicated to the advancement of the arts and sciences of television and the promotion of creative leadership for artistic, educational and technical achievements within the television industry. It recognizes excellence in television with the coveted Emmy Awards for News & Documentary, Sports, Daytime and Children’s & Family programming, as well as achievements in television Technology & Engineering.

The Television Academy (ATAS) strives to shape and advance the dynamic television landscape; cultivate a diverse, inclusive and accessible professional community; and advocate for the television industry while capturing the spirit of a new generation of content creators and industry professionals. Through innovative programs, publications and events, the Academy and its Foundation foster and empower storytellers. The Academy also celebrates those who excel in the industry recognizing their achievements through awards and accolades, including the renowned Emmy Award. Membership in the Academy is open to working professionals in the television industry.

So, would you like to see the Primetime Emmy and the Daytime Emmys fold into one show if the two unions reached a unification arrangement? Do you hope that after almost 50 years, the two organizations can finally make some serious headway? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
