CBS' soap The Young and the Restless earned a leading 23 Daytime Emmy nominations on Wednesday, including three of the four competitors for best actor, while ABC rival General Hospital had 19 nominations.
The 40th annual Daytime Emmy awards will be held June 16 in Beverly Hills, televised for the second year on the cable network HLN.
Scot Safon, Executive Vice President and General Manager of HLN said: Last year, HLN’s first-ever presentation of the Daytime Emmy® Awards was the #1 most-watched, regularly-scheduled non-news broadcast in the network’s history, and received terrific viewer feedback both on-air and online. Our audiences thanked us for tapping into that vital part of American pop culture.
“HLN is the news channel that focuses on stories at the forefront of the American conversation, and daytime programming often tackles those same themes and stories. We are so happy to again present the program that honors the best work in daytime.”
