Mario Lopez from “Extra” and Sheryl Underwood from “The Talk” are not only on nominated shows, but they will also host the 2017 event, in which the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) honors the best daytime TV programs. Of course, the event will be loaded with actors and TV personalities.
Larry King, Susan Lucci, Harry Connick Jr., Margaret Cho, Tim Allen, Blair Underwood, Trisha Yearwood, Sara Gilbert, Sharon Osbourne, Aisha Tyler, Chris Hansen, Tamera Mowry-Housley, Loni Love, Jeannie Mai, Adrienne Houghton and Ross Mathews are among the presenters. Soap operas will be well represented as well. “The Young and the Restless” stars Bryton James and Mishael Morgan, “General Hospital” veterans Kelly Monaco and Dominic Zamprogna, “The Bold and the Beautiful” performers Katherine Kelly Lang and John McCook and “Days of Our Lives” actors Billy Flynn and Marci Miller will also be there to hand out awards.
“Young and the Restless” alum Max Ehrich will be there for a special musical performance, and current “Y&R” stars are expected to take the stage as well to give a few acceptance speeches. After all, the CBS soap opera leads with 25 nominations at the 2017 Daytime Emmys.
The soap scored two nominations in both the lead actress and lead actor categories. Gina Tognoni and Jess Walton will be up against Nancy Lee Grahn (“General Hospital”), Heather Tom (“The Bold and the Beautiful”) and Laura Wright (“General Hospital”). In the male category, Peter Bergman and Kristoff St. John will be competing against Scott Clifton (“The Bold and the Beautiful”), Billy Flynn (“Days of Our Lives”) and Vincent Irizarry (“Days of Our Lives”).
Just because “The Young and the Restless” has more nominations doesn’t guarantee they’ll go home with more trophies. “Days of Our Lives” picked up five Emmys at Friday’s Creative Arts ceremony, two more than “Y&R.” Soap opera devotees will have to tune in to see which soap comes out on top.
The 44th annual Daytime Emmy Awards air live Sunday, April 30 at 8 p.m. EDT on Facebook and Twitter.
