With five prizes, including Outstanding Drama Series, NBC’s “Days of Our Lives” was the top winner at the 45th Annual Daytime Emmy® Awards, which were held at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium on Sunday, April 29, 2018. The show was hosted by Mario Lopez and Sheryl Underwood. In the digital categories, Amazon’s “The Bay The Series” was the top winner, with six prizes, including Outstanding Digital Daytime Drama Series.

The 45th Daytime Emmy Awards recognized outstanding achievement in all fields of daytime television production and are presented to individuals and programs broadcast from 2 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the 2017 calendar year. The Daytime Emmy Awards show was a presentation of the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, whose members vote for the awards. The Daytime Creative Arts Emmy Awards gala (held was at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium on April 27, 2018) honored the more than 70 craft & program categories behind the many shows that grace the daytime genre.

“Days of Our Lives” went into the ceremony with 25 nominations. The soap opera ended up winning five Daytime Emmys this year: Drama Series, Lead Actor in a Drama Series (for James Reynolds), Supporting Actor in a Drama Series (for Greg Vaughn), Directing for a Drama Series; and Writing for a Drama Series.

“Days of Our Lives” executive producers Bill Hayes and Susan Seaforth Hayes were honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award, a non-competitive category. The award was presented by “Days of Our Lives” veteran actress Deidre Hall.

Also getting special recognition during the show were the anniversaries of some iconic TV series:  “General Hospital” (55th anniversary), “Mr. Rogers Neighborhood” (50th anniversary) and “M*A*S*H” (45th anniversary).

In the talk-show categories, “The Talk” received the prize for Outstanding Talk Show/ Entertainment; “The Dr. Oz Show” won for Outstanding Talk Show/Informative; Steve Harvey was named Outstanding Informative Talk-Show Host for his self-titled show; and the four hosts of “The Real” (Tamera Mowry-Housley, Loni Love, Jeannie Mai and Adrienne Houghton) won the prize for Outstanding Entertainment Talk Show Host.

Although the #MeToo and Times Up movements were mentioned or referenced at times on stage, it wasn’t a big part of the program, compared to this year’s Golden Globes and Oscars. The Daytime Emmy ceremony’s most controversial moment came when feminist attorney Gloria Allred (who represents many of Bill Cosby’s accusers) presented the award for Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Program category. Before announcing the winner, Allred held up a sign that said “Bill Cosby Guilty! Gulity! Guilty!” Her stunt got a mixed response from the crowd: some people cheered, while others booed. (On April 26, Cosby was convicted of three counts of sexual assault against his former Temple University colleague Andrea Constand, who claimed that Cosby assaulted her in 2004.) Allred held up the same sign when she walked on the red carpet before the ceremony.

The Daytime Emmy Awards have not been on televised since 2015. However, this year’s show was livestreamed on the official NATAS website, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Periscope. People could also watch the show by downloading the KNEKT TV app and watching on Apple TV, Roku, iOS and Android.

Colin Jost and Michael Che, “Weekend Update” anchors and Emmy®Award-nominated co-head writers of NBC’s iconic and Emmy Award-winning late night franchise “Saturday Night Live,” have been named co-hosts of the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards. The telecast will be executive produced by “SNL” creator and executive producer Lorne Michaels.

The Emmys will air live coast to coast from the Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live in downtown Los Angeles on Monday, Sept. 17 from 8-11 p.m. ET (5-8 p.m. PT) on NBC.

“NBC is thrilled to be the home of this year’s Emmy Awards and with Colin and Michael in the driver’s seat as hosts, along with surprise appearances by other cast members of ‘Saturday Night Live,’ I think we are in for one of the funniest awards shows in a long time,” said Robert Greenblatt, Chairman, NBC Entertainment.

Said Paul Telegdy, President, Alternative and Reality Group, NBC Entertainment: “We’re proud of our deep comedy roster at NBC, and Michael and Colin — along with the return of king of comedy producer Lorne Michaels — will make this the must-see comedy event of the year.”

“We are elated that Colin Jost and Michael Che will bring their hilarious collective talents to hosting this year’s Emmy Awards,” said Hayma Washington, Television Academy chairman and CEO. “They have an amazing onscreen rapport and we are delighted to begin working with them along with the entire NBC team.”

“We’re proud to be the first duo hosting the Emmys since Jenna Elfman and David Hyde Pierce, and somehow that’s a real fact,” said Jost and Che.

Jost and Che are Emmy-nominated co-head writers on “SNL” who began their tenure on “Weekend Update” in 2014. A four-time WGA Award winner and recipient of a Peabody Award, Jost started at “SNL” as a writer in 2005. Che, who was previously named on Variety’s 10 Comics to Watch list and Rolling Stone’s 50 Funniest People, joined “SNL” in 2013. Each was named as a co-head writer on “SNL” in 2017.

So far this season, “Saturday Night Live” is averaging a 2.82 rating in adults 18-49 and 9.405 million viewers in “live plus seven day” figures from Nielsen Media Research. This is the show’s #2 most-watched season at this point in 23 years. With the inclusion of projected 35-day non-linear ratings, “SNL” this season is averaging a 3.78 rating in 18-49.

Nominations for the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards will be announced Thursday, July 12 from the Television Academy’s Wolf Theatre at the Saban Media Center.
