David Michaels, senior executive director of the Daytime Entertainment Emmy Awards, tells Soaps In Depth that the beloved soaps (set to relaunch on Monday from The OnLine Network), will be eligible for consideration in 2014... it's just a matter of the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences deciding in which category to place them! "In May, we have an awards committee meeting. We're going to start discussing that now," Michaels reveals. "There are a bunch of different ways to go. They are obviously going to be eligible for the contest; we're just trying to decide how they should be eligible." Nominations for the 40th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards will be announced on Wednesday, May 1, so check back here that day to see who made the cut!

Members BingCherry Posted April 28, 2013 Members Share Posted April 28, 2013 If I were to guess, NATAS will probably put them in the basic Drama Series categories because of the sheer frequency of episodes/production quality/actors despite it being technically a "web" series.

Members Eric83 Posted April 29, 2013 Members Share Posted April 29, 2013 They could change it from Daytime Drama Series to Daily Drama Series... technically the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jonathan Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 Hopefully they have money for the entry fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted October 27, 2013 Members Share Posted October 27, 2013 I wonder how many of these actors will submit and if anybody would even vote for them. I do think the material is strong enough, but since these shows are down, they might not have the organization to get this going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
