Daytime Emmys 2022: The Nominations

Emmy season has officially begun with the announcement of the 49th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards nominations! Soap fans were eagerly awaiting the news to see if their favorites from THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL, DAYS OF OUR LIVES, GENERAL HOSPITAL, and THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS would be up for the coveted trophy this year. The initial nominees were announced live on THE TALK on May 5, and subsequent categories were revealed on social media.

You’ll also notice a bit of a change to the nominations below as you read through them because of the rule changes that went into effect this year. Some categories that were previously part of the Daytime Emmys are now in the primetime awards, and some categories like hair and makeup now include soaps and talk shows.

The 2022 Daytime Emmys will be held on Friday, June 24, at the Pasadena Civic Center, but if you can’t snag a ticket to see it in person, fans will once again be able to watch it on TV as it is being broadcast live from 9:00-11:00 p.m. ET. on both CBS and their streaming platform Paramount+. So be sure to tune in and see if your picks to win take home the gold!
