So, what do you think of Mario and Sheryl getting the hosting duties once again for this year’s Emmy ceremony? Comment below.
When will we get to see the Emmy reels? We have been waiting to see them! (:
EXACTLY: it’s been my assertion… this years EMMYS want to be rigged. as in no distraction from the people.. for the people by the people.. even with 4 contenders. Yeah, i’ll go their. I smell dead general hospital / ABC / disney
stench any
Really? They can’t do better than Sheryl? She is just disgusting with her lewd remarks to/about every good looking man there. Can’t stand her and was hoping TPTB would have sense enough to find someone with CLASS!
AMEN!
I completely agree. That is the main reason I don’t watch The Talk. I pity every male guest that goes on that show because I know darn right well, the minute he walks over to greet Sheryl she is going to be all over him like a cheap suit. It sickens me.
I hope the men all wear bibs, because she will be drooling all over them.
She really is a smart, funny person, but wish she had a little more class and self control around men.
Love the bibs & drooling line! I may have to steal that one!
I hope they do their homework and know who’s who and on what show they appear. Less time about them and more time on the daytime drama stars for me, please. Let’s see some clips and memories and skip the silly production numbers.
what time does it go live
I think they should be televised like on a real TV not on the computer screen.
I agree. I don’t care who wins!!!!
I agree, they deserve to be televised they are just as hard working actors as the rest.
I love Sheryl Underwood,she is a funny lady and she loves to watch Daytime soaps, she is a big soap fan. Love you Sheryl.
Sheryl Underwood scares me.
DMRR…me, too. Y-I-K-E-S.
Why must the Academy always resort to hosts that no one even cares about when they could have daytime drama’s actors/actresses host the show? Are they that ashamed of daytime drama’s that they’d rather have “big name” folks host the show instead of someone who isn’t that well known?
Excellent choice!!!
All reward shows no longer interest me..i just read the results later
I agree. Who are these “Judges?” Judging what? What gives them the right to judge?
Why can’t we watch this on regular TV?!!!
No regular TV again!!!!??
Daytime Emmys award shows should be on TV
Just like all award shows. It is just as important as all the other award shows. This is not fair to all the fans. Not everyone can watch on a website or computer or phone.
To really get the full enjoyment of the award, winners, and entertainment you need to be able to watch it on TV.
The President of NATAS doesn’t care about the fans, the audience who watches theses shows to put it on TV.
I would rather watch an ant poop than watch one second of Cheryl Underwood!
Cheering on Maurice Benard and Max Gail for leading and supporting actors. They carried the best story on daytime last year. A new great acting duo was born.
All this Sheryl Underwood hate is so evil and unnecessary. She’s funny and a soap watcher. Your insides are dirty.
Hi, I wish it was on T.V. I love love the emmys.

George Cheeks, CBS President & CEO, on Timeline to Launch New Daytime Drama, ‘The Gates’: “We’re So Focused on Getting it Right”
March 2024 will be remembered in the TV and soap world when the news broke that CBS is prepping a brand new daytime drama. Many had thought a major network would never bring a new daytime soap into the world, given that the last time it was attempted was 25 years ago when the now defunct Passions bowed on NBC.
However, The Gates is definitely in development and moving forward with some major players associated with it including: Michele Val Jean as The Gates writer, showrunner and one of its executive producers, and Sheila Ducksworth from NAACP Venture
Now, for the first time since its announcement, George Cheeks, the president and CEO of CBS and chief content officer for news and sports at Paramount+, spoke on the project that will feature a Black family as its central focus who live in a wealthy gated community.
Speaking with Vulture, and when asked if The Gates is really something that truly has a chance of getting on the air, Cheeks clarified, “It’s super real. And just to give you a little bit of the backstory, when we hired Sheila Ducksworth to run the NAACP Venture, she and I had multiple meetings talking about what different genres she was going to lean into, and we talked a lot about daytime.”
Cheeks added, “One of the things that the data made very clear to both of us is that daytime soap operas over index with Black women, and yet when you look at soap operas, it’s usually sort of a white-led family with supporting characters that reflect more of our society. So we just thought, wouldn’t it be interesting to flip that and make the core anchor family a Black family, and then make the other characters reflect more the broader scope of society?”
The CEO gave props to Michele Val Jean, and how Ducksworth came to the table with the former B&B and GH writer. “She found this great writer, Michele Val Jean, who’s been in the soap opera space for 30 years. She came up with a pitch, and we loved it,” shares Cheeks. “We brought Procter & Gamble into it as well, because if there were going to be (product) integrations, we could do it more holistically and organically. All of that is to say, we did a lot of work on the front end to put this together. So while yes, it’s development, it’s accelerated development.”
When prodded on the timeline of when The Gates could come to full fruition, Gates related, “The actual timeline and when we’re going to do it is still uncertain, because we want to get this right. I mean, there hasn’t been a new soap opera launch since I can’t even begin to tell you when. But we have great success with Bold and the Beautiful and Young and the Restless, and so we think we’re the right folks to be launching a new soap. I wish I could tell you more about exact timing, but we’re so focused on getting it right, and that will dictate when we’re ready to launch it.”
The CBS exec also shared that whether The Gates will wind up an hour soap or half-hour is not yet determined, but that it is being developed as an hour show.
So, after reading what George Cheeks, the CBS President & CEO had to say about ‘The Gates’, are you even more excited for what looks to the first new network soap in 25 years? Comment below.

51st Annual Daytime Emmy Awards Announce Broadcast Date on CBS
The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) revealed on Tuesday, that the 51st Annual Daytime Emmy Awards will be broadcast live on Friday night, June 7th (8 – 10 PM, ET/delayed PT) on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on-demand on Paramount+*.
This year will mark the 18th time CBS has broadcast the Daytime Emmy Awards, which is more than any other network.
The 2024 Daytime Emmys will take place at the Westin Bonaventure in downtown Los Angeles. Back in December of 2023, the delayed 50th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards were also held at that venue. The June 7th date for the upcoming ceremony will be the first time in several years that the event is scheduled a few weeks earlier than normal; excluding last year’s revised date to the actors and writers strikes.
Lifetime Achievement honoree, nominations, host, and additional information will be announced in the coming weeks.
In a statement, Adam Sharp, President and CEO of NATAS noted, “We eagerly anticipate our return in June as we once again partner with CBS to recognize the exceptional and talented individuals who make daytime television great. We’re thrilled to kick off our second half-century of the Daytime Emmys.”
The Daytime Emmy Awards have recognized outstanding achievement in television programming and crafts since 1974, honoring work in a variety of categories, including daytime dramas, talk shows, instructional programming, hosting, culinary, and legal/courtroom programs. In 2021, NATAS and the Television Academy jointly announced plans to realign the Daytime and Primetime Emmy Awards to be organized by content genre, as opposed to program airtime.
The 51st Annual Daytime Emmy Awards will once again be produced by NATAS and Associated Television International (ATI), which produced Daytime Emmy Award ceremonies on The CW in 2009 and on CBS in 2010, 2011, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023. Adam Sharp and Lisa Armstrong are executive producers from NATAS, while David McKenzie is executive producer from ATI.
So, glad to know that the 51st Annual Daytime Emmy Awards honoring performance and shows in the 2023 calendar year, will be held in early June this year, and once again broadcast on CBS? Comment below.
