This Year it goes To:

EP of The View, Bill Gedde. Barabara Walters announced it today LIVE on The View

All I Can Say Is WTF?

Why Not Douglas Marland, Claire Labine so many more deserving folks

As The View represents so much of what has destroyed daytime TV (stupidity, misogny, bigotry, screaming and yelling and repeating the same lines over and over), it's only fitting.

LOL

Most irrelevant award show ever.

I'm so glad no one takes it seriously anymore and it probably won't be televised this year.

I am shocked it wasn't Barbara although she probably thinks she's too good for it anyway.

Next year MAB gets it just watch

Seriously? WTF. With AMC and OLTL going off the air, I thought for sure it would be someone associated with one of those shows. I know Agnes already has a lifetime award, but someone else from either show would have been more appropriate.

It was probably done to try and get more star power to the show.

Has LaLucci won this award yet?

Why would the daytime emmys HONOR anything SOAP when they are all getting cancelled and SOAPS are knwon as a thing of the past. As I said anyone who thinks GH will live past next year u have a better chance winning the freaking lottery. They will honor anything but a dead GENRE IMO.

I still remember when Hot In Cleveland did a parody of the VIew where the guests were: People who's shows got canceled so we could put our's on air!

Anyway the Daytime Emmy's havent been shipt in years now and I laugh everytime I look at the nominations

Talks shows are Dying too. There are more deserving people in Daytime to get this before Bill Gedde

A lifetime achievement award is often about the past. Not so much about a man whose show is famous because viewers want to point and laugh at the dumbasses. If that's the criteria, give the award to Jerry Springer.

11 posts and still not revealed to be an April Fool's joke... you have GOT to be kidding me. I was actually expecting Susan Lucci and I was already forming my opinions on that, but Bill Gedde?? You can't tell me these things can't be bought.

Curiously, this makes me like Barbara Walters a little less.

If Frons wasn't gone, I'd swear he was behind this

I'm pretty sure a Daytime Emmy can be bought...at WalMart for $19.99. They're right between the Snuggies and the Shake Weights.

It does have his signature "fevered meth dream" feel. LOL!

+1. I can't believe people sit through this trainwreck daily.
