Daytime Emmy Awards Announce June 26 Date For Postponed Ceremony
The two-hour awards ceremony will be broadcast on Friday, June 26 at 8 p.m – 10 p.m., ET/PT on CBS, though in a different format than ever before. The event will present awards in leading categories during the broadcast, with winners and special guests appearing from the safety of their homes in light of the ongoing public health crisis. Additional categories will be announced simultaneously via the Daytime Emmys official Twitter account, with other categories presented in a separate ceremony to be held in July.
Notable names among the nominees this year include Kelly Clarkson, whose talk show “The Kelly Clarkson Show” launched in September 2019 and scored seven nominations in its first year of eligibility, including notices for Outstanding Entertainment Talk Show and Outstanding Entertainment Talk Show Host. “Jeopardy!” host Alex Trebek, six-time Emmy winner for Outstanding Game Show Host, was nominated again in the category this year. That makes 31 times Trebek has been nominated for his hosting abilities, including 1990 and 1991 when he was double-nominated for his work on both “Jeopardy!” and “Classic Concentration.”
