Daytime Emmys 2020: And the winners are…
It's 2020 and there's an ongoing global health crisis, but that didn't stop the 47th Daytime Emmy Awards from plowing ahead Friday night. It's Hollywood after all, and the show must go on!
The annual awards shindig, which celebrates outstanding achievement in daytime television programming, looked a little different this year, however. Instead of running online on social media or cable, as it had done since 2012, the ceremony aired live on CBS from 8 to 10 p.m. ET. In lieu of an in-person audience, the hosts — The Talk's Sharon Osbourne, Sheryl Underood, Eve, Carrie Ann Inaba, and Marie Osmond — as well as winners and other guests appeared from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Going into the evening, General Hospital led with 23 nominations, while Days of Our Lives and The Young and the Restless followed with 22 and 21, respectively.
Check out the list of winners from the evening below.
