mvcg66b3r 100 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Quote There will be no telecast of this year’s Daytime Emmy Awards, said the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) on Thursday. “After last year’s critically successful Daytime telecast, it is with great disappointment that the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences announces that there will not be a broadcast of the 43rd Annual Daytime Emmy Awards,” said Bob Mauro, president, in a statement. “After months of negotiations to find show sponsorship, the NATAS Executive Board has decided that the current climate for awards shows prohibits the possibility of a telecast this year. With that said, we will be putting on a world-class awards celebration honoring the best and brightest of Daytime television and look forward to an exciting show. All efforts regarding returning the annual gala to television in 2017 are underway.” Last year, the show aired on CBS-owned Pop, which received strong reviews from viewers after a debacle in 2014 when the show was streamed online only and hosted by Kathy Griffin. A ceremony will still be held on Sunday, May 1, at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel and Suites in downtown Los Angeles, and the Daytime Creative Arts Awards will be handed out on Friday, April 29, also at the Bonaventure. http://www.broadcastingcable.com/news/programming/no-televised-awards-ceremony-daytime-emmys/154946 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15026-no-televised-awards-ceremony-for-daytime-emmys/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is gonna be around to watch it or even knows there's daytime Emmys? Such a broadcast is equivalent to the high school AV club on the average persons radar... Giving up airtime so 10 people who care can watch and 9 of those have a direct stake in it would be idiotic...

Believe it or not there are still fans that watch or that would like to see the awards show. It was reported in Variety that maybe next year will get a telecast. Don't piss off soap fans.

Yeah, They still aired, Grammys, American Musical Awards, CMA, People Choice, ESPY and a slue of other award shows.

Less and less people are starting to care about it. If you want to work in this business, you should learn from Wendy Bell's mistake. You are pissing off a lot of soap, game show, and talk show fans right now with your comments. And while ratings are down, a lot of people still tune into those shows. Think of it this way, if someone writes a blog (let's hypothetically say about changing newscasts), but not many people read it (except for a handful of people like me), does that mean it's irrelevant and should cease to exist?

It would take a lot less energy and time to change the channel than to complain about why you don't like watching award shows...

bhratbrat 437 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 So I wonder who pulled out of the two year deal they had. Was it Pop (the network that signed a 2 year contract with them) or was it the Emmy Association.

johnnya2k6 171 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Quite frankly...nobody gave a crap about the Daytime Emmys anymore since Susan Lucci finally won in 1999. It used to be such a big event because every year until then, millions tuned in to see whether or not she would come up on stage, and it happened after 19 nominations. As for this year? I wouldn't be surprised if they took the same route as the 2008 Golden Globes, which were simply a straightforward announcement of the winners (in light of the writers' strike).

nathannah 2394 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 The problem is that all networks want homerun ratings rather than good quality 'single' or 'doubles'...all networks have been into this thinking even though daytime has now become a niche market filled with mediocre lifestyle shows, talk shows with no cultural buzz outside The View (mainly negative) and The Talk (mostly fine), court shows and game shows, and most viewers have moved on to just watching cable news or reruns for background noise, and NATAS is happy to ignore the sports talk screamers on the sports networks (as are most people). Soaps have also been undercut by their networks over the years, along with the authorities in those networks; Brian Frons being so anti-soap that he brought in writers who knew nothing about the genre at all certainly didn't help, but the death knell lately is that anyone can get work on the voluminous primetime series airing on networks and streaming services and not be stuck in the infinite plot loops/indeterminable love triangles soaps are now content to carry to diminishing returns. I'd rather see CBS just give up the ratings points and air the DEA's without an issue, but that isn't happening. And there used to be a market for private daytime awards shows put on by entities such as magazines, but they're barely making any money these days as press releases do all their work for four shows, and comically encouraged ballot-stuffing of supercouples to absurd extremes. Like state Miss America pageants that are no longer carried on television, eventually the DEA's will be named in a press release with the awards mailed off or just become a banquet in the style of the first Oscars and Emmys because producing a 1.5-earning award show isn't a money maker these days.
