The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences revealed on Wednesday via X, that this year’s 51st annual Daytime Emmy Nominations are set to be announced in full on Friday, April 19th at 12 pm ET/9 am PT.

However, four of the top award category nominations will be revealed on Thursday, April 18th across four entertainment news programs to kick things off.

Those include this Thursday episodes of Access Hollywood, E! News, Entertainment Tonight and Extra. Over the past few years, NATAS has often let the syndicated entertainment news program handle the duties of revealing the top actor and actress in a daytime drama series, but we shall see which categories the shows unveil this year.

As previously announced, the 51st annual Daytime Emmy Awards will be presented in ceremonies on Friday night, June 7th on CBS (8 – 10 PM, ET/delayed PT) on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on-demand on Paramount+*.

The awards will be back at The Bonaventure hotel in downtown Los Angeles, where (the delayed due to the actors and writers strike) 50th annual Daytime Emmy Awards were held back in December of 2023.

Look for the full nominations to be posted right here at Michael Fairman TV and you can follow along on Friday on the Daytime Emmys social platforms as well.

The Daytime Emmy Awards have recognized outstanding achievement in television programming and crafts since 1974, honoring work in a variety of categories, including daytime dramas, talk shows, instructional programming, hosting, culinary, and legal/courtroom programs. In 2021, NATAS and the Television Academy jointly announced plans to realign the Daytime and Primetime Emmy Awards to be organized by content genre, as opposed to program airtime.

The 51st Daytime Emmy Nominations will honor the work and achievement from the calendar year of 2023.

So, who would you like to see in the running for gold when the Daytime Emmy nominations in the key acting and show categories are revealed? Share your thoughts below.

Rooting for Tanner Novlan as John Finnegan on B&B this year! He was robbed of a nomination last year for the Sheila/Finn hostage arc. Hopefully, they will compensate this year and give him a well-deserved nomination for the work he did during Sinn’s separation and the myriad confrontations with Liam, Deacon, and Sheila.”

I hope General Hospital gets alot of winners

Okay – time to guess the nominees. Picking 2 from GH for each category (remember this is for performances on calendar year 2023):

LEAD ACTOR
Maurice Benard (Sonny)
Wally Kurth (Ned)

Comment: Ned went from lead in 2023 to MIA most of 2024. DZ/Dante should submit in this category.

LEAD ACTRESS
Finola Hughes (Anna)
Cynthia Watros (Nina)

Comment: Watros made the most of a poor storyline. Laura Wright’s best stuff happened in January so look for her nom next year. Genie should be here – but won’t.

SUP ACTOR
Jeff Kober (Cyrus)
Jon Lindstrom (Kevin/Ryan)

Comment: Lindstrom has 4 noms without a win. With Ryan’s death looking final – this may be his last good opportunity. NAC/Spencer likely won’t submit as he seems to be moving on from the soap world.

SUP ACTRESS
Kathleen Gati (Liesl)
Vernee Watson (Stella)

Comment: Liesl’s grief from Britt’s demise combined with the Greenland stuff should finally get her a nod. As Sonya Eddy was posthumously nominated last year, will show submit Jackie Zeaman this year?

GUEST
Rena Sofer (Lois)
Charles Mesure (Brennan)

Comment
As she first reappeared in October, Sofer’s episode count might be low enough for submission in Guest. Mesure had presence the moment he walked into Kelly’s.

Shame the younger performer category was eliminated as Scarlett Fernandez was outstanding as Charlotte.

I saw Wally’s submission and he was really good. I think he is going to get nominated.

Could he get nominated in Lead for GH and Supporting for DAYS?

GH has so many actors that could deservedly be nominated for Supporting Actor. Not many for Lead other than Maurice and maybe Wally for the Ned/Eddie story, as you said. But in addition to Jeff Kober and Jon Lindstrom that you mentioned for Supporting, you could throw-in James Patrick Stuart, Charles Shaughnessy, Gregory Harrison, Dominic Zamprogna, Robert Gossett, Donnell Turner. I could make a case for all of them.

Without knowing who submitted their name and who didn’t, it will be very interesting to see who out of that group makes it. I know I’ll be rooting for Jon Lindstrom. This is realistically probably his last great chance, and he’s beyond overdue.

She wasn’t given a lot during the rest of the year, but I hope that Rebecca Herbst submitted herself for Supporting,and particularly the scene where Aiden came out to Elizabeth that aired in December. No scene anywhere on any show this year touched me so deeply and personally as that one did. It didn’t feature an actor yelling, crying, or climbing up the drapes with scenery chewing, so I don’t know if it would resonate with the Emmy voters or not. But it should. Becky hasn’t been nominated since 2012, so talk about someone else that is overdue.

Fairly certain that Becky (like Jane Elliot) rarely submits. And, like you, I agree that scene with Aidan was superb. I’m hoping that Gati submitted.

Gregory Harrison may get a nom for 2023, but it’s almost a sure thing for 24.

Would be great if we saw Scarlett Fernandez soon. She has not appeared for quite awhile.

Arianne Zuker, Melody Thomas Scott & Michelle Stafford for Lead Actress. Really hoping Tanner Novlen gets nominated for Supporting Actor along with Mark Grossman. Eric Martsolf, Peter Bergman and hopefully Eric Braeden for Lead Actor. Courtney Hope and Annika Noelle for Supporting Actress

Love to see another Tanner Novlan supporter here! Fingers crossed we see his name!

Not happy with the Lead Actor nominations. Nobody from GH, Scott Clifton and Thorsten Kaye? Where is Mark Grossman and Greg Vaughan? Chad Duell and Nicholas Chavez? Ddid they all submit in supporting? At least there is no Peter Bergman this year.
