The 47th Annual Daytime EMMYs is happening tonight!
It’s time to honor the outstanding achievements of this year’s amazing daytime shows – and the 2020 Daytime EMMYs is back on the small screen for the first time in five years! Catch the two-hour special this evening, (Friday, June 26), 8:00 PM ET/PT on the CBS.
The awards show will look a little different this year amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. For the first time ever, with the ceremonies conducted remotely, and the awards presented virtually.
The wonderful ladies of The Talk – Sharon Osbourne, Sheryl Underwood, Eve, Carrie Ann Inaba and Marie Osmond – will be hosting the awards ceremony from their homes, as will the presenters and other stars who will also be appearing, including Gayle King, Kelsey Grammer, Kathie Lee Gifford, Scott Evans, Kevin Frazier, Wayne Brady, Michael Strahan, Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest.
However, the new format isn’t taking away from the excitement of finding out who won.
“We won’t know the winners until they broadcast it,” host Sheryl said. “This is the 14th time that CBS will broadcast the Daytime Emmys, more than any other network, and we want you guys to check it out.”
All the nominees have sent in a pre-taped acceptance speech – but only the winners’ will be aired. Will your faves bag that EMMY?
