As we continue to wait for the 2023 Daytime Emmy Awards ceremony to be rescheduled, we thought we’d hand out some awards of our own! While we won’t know who officially won trophies this year until after the Writers Strike is over and the show can finally air on CBS, we asked the fans to have their say as to who should get the gold!

Thousands of votes were cast, but since viewers weren’t judging by the official reels submitted by THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL, DAYS OF OUR LIVES, GENERAL HOSPITAL, and THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS, their picks were obviously less than impartial. (Spoiler alert: fans of one particular soap really went to town!)

We’ll see if any of the fan-picked winners match up with the actual winners when the 50th annual Daytime Emmy Awards ceremony is finally broadcast. Keep checking back here at SoapsInDepth.com for future Emmy updates!

For now, scroll through the gallery below to see who you voted to win in each of the major daytime drama categories at this year’s Daytime Emmys!
