The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences began distributing the material during the 49th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards. The ceremony is broadcast live on the East Coast and streamed on Paramount+.
The in-person ceremony at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium opened with a not-so-subtle reference to Friday’s Supreme Court decision reversing Roe v. Wade. After host Kevin Frazier referenced his co-host Nischelle Turner’s beauty in her blue dress, she replied, “I chose that dress. It was my choice. The comment was met with thunderous applause.

Later, Drew Carey paid tribute to 50 years of The price is right. And Susan Lucci received a standing ovation after taking the stage to remember her late husband/manager Helmet Huber and introduce the In Memoriam segment. It included a performance by Michael Bolton, who sang his 1983 hit “How Am I Supposed To Live Without You.”
Suzanne Rogers of days of our lives presented the Lifetime Achievement Award to longtime daytime star John Aniston. The presentation included a video clip of his daughter, Jennifer Aniston, who explained how her father started acting on television in 1962 before joining days of our lives in 1985. Since then, he has played Victor Kiriakis.
The veteran actor was not present. “We’re like family to him,” said Rogers, who accepted the Daytime Emmy on Aniston’s behalf.
