I love Alex Trebek. There’s not been a celebrity who has been more present throughout my life.

This year is indeed dragging!

I think last year was a good utilization of nostalgia and there were good clips, for the most part and soaps had a more prominent role in the celebration.  Also, those clips of previous Daytime Emmy telecasts were kind of cool.

This year is meh, so far.

I was thinking that too...it seemed like last year devoted more time to the soaps, but I guess with it being a milestone year for Y&R/GH and Bill and Susan Hayes winning the Lifetime Achievement award, that helped a lot.

That was a great speech from Alex Trebek. 

 

Frank Valentini may be a terrible EP, but man, is he a dish.

I won't deny it....

 

If he cam a knockin' my pants would be droppin'.  

Well deserved for Alex Trebek.  Great speech too.

Yeah, I hate that I find an otherwise mediocre human being so damn attractive.

More Kathie Lee...

Lawd...for all of you in heat for Frank Valentini......LOL
 

Kathie Lee seemed genuinely touched. I'm happy for her. 

Once I saw the clip Vernee Watson chose, she was a lock.

Aunt Vi!

 

Billy Flynn with the two Abby's is cute.

 

Happy for Vernee! I love her.

Great night for the GH character actors.

The second year in a row where two Black actors win Daytime Emmys. 

aww I was hoping for Beth...
