NEW YORK/LOS ANGELES (June 24, 2022) – The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) tonight announced the winners of the 49th Annual Daytime Emmy® Awards. The ceremony was presented live this evening at 9 PM EDT (delayed PT) on the CBS Television Network and streamed on Paramount+.

Presenters at the ceremony included Drew Barrymore (The Drew Barrymore Show), Tamron Hall (Tamron Hall), Scott Evans (Access Hollywood), Jerry O’Connell & Natalie Morales (The Talk), Deborah Norville (Inside Edition), Deidre Hall & James Reynolds (Beyond Salem), Krista Allen, Tanner Novlan & Lawrence Saint‐Victor (The Bold and the Beautiful), Tanisha Harper, Cameron Mathison & Laura Wright (General Hospital), Galen Gering & Camila Banus (Days of our Lives), Sean Dominic, and Christian Le Blanc & Tracey Bregman (The Young and the Restless).

In addition to awarding Emmys in more than a dozen categories, the ceremony honored Days of Our Lives icon John Aniston with a Lifetime Achievement award, presented by Suzanne Rogers.
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, and legal/courtroom programs. In 2021, the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (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. In addition, in recognition of the marked increase in content and entries for children’s programming, 2022 will mark the first annual Children’s & Family Emmy Awards, with relevant categories separating from the Daytime Emmys into their own competition and ceremony.
All awards are judged by a pool of more than 1,000 peer professionals from across the television industry, whose confidential ballots were then tabulated by the independent accounting firm of Lutz & Carr, LLP.
