Daytime Emmys flashback: The awards started with wins for ‘The Doctors,’ Elizabeth Hubbard and Macdonald Carey

In the 1950s daytime programming became extremely popular, with game shows and soap operas becoming a staple in American households. Although the Emmy Awards had been established in 1949, the categories were limited for the first few years, and performers from all genres, and from both daytime and nighttime programs, were lumped together in one or two acting categories, with daytime performers usually left out.

In 1962 Mary Stuart became the only soap opera actress nominated for a Primetime Emmy, for her role as Joanne Gardner on "Search for Tomorrow." In 1968 a category for Best Achievement in Daytime Programming was attempted, but judges decided that no one was deserving. Outraged pioneers of the genre, such as writer Agnes Nixon and "General Hospital" star John Beradino, lobbied for recognition of daytime television. In 1972 the first Emmy Awards specifically honoring daytime programming were bestowed to "The Doctors" for Best Daytime Drama and to Mary Fickett (Ruth Martin, "All My Children") for Best Daytime Drama Performance.

Then daytime programming finally received its due with the first Daytime Emmy Awards ceremony, which was held on the afternoon of May 28, 1974; it's the only time the Daytime and Primetime ceremonies aired the same day. Barbara Walters and Peter Marshall hosted, with categories that celebrated the best in daytime drama, game shows, children's programming and daytime talk shows.

"The Doctors" was once again named the Best Daytime Drama, beating out two soaps that would become among the most popular and long-lasting, "Days of Our Lives" and "General Hospital." "GH" also earned two spots in the Best Actor category, for John Beradino and Peter Hansen, for their respective roles as Dr. Steve Hardy and Lee Baldwin. But another daytime legend won, Macdonald Carey for his portrayal of Dr. Tom Horton on "Days."

For Best Actress, Fickett, the 1972 performance winner, was again considered for her role on "All My Children," as was former Primetime nominee Stuart (again for "Search for Tomorrow"). Rachel Ames (Audrey Hardy, "General Hospital") also received a nomination. But the winner was Elizabeth Hubbard, for her portrayal of Dr. Althea Davis on "The Doctors." Hubbard would become better known for her role as Lucinda Walsh on "As the World Turns" from 1984-2010, for which she received nine Daytime Emmy nominations; she most recently earned a bid for Best Lead Actress in a Digital Daytime Drama for "Anacostia" in 2016. This grande dame of daytime television passed away on April 8, 2023, at the age of 89.

Other winners at the inaugural ceremony included "Password" for Best Game Show; "Zoom" for Best Children's Series; Dinah Shore ("Dinah's Place") for Best Host of a Talk, Service or Variety Program; and Peter Marshall ("Hollywood Squares"), who won his first of four statues for Best Game Show Host.

The first televised American daytime serial debuted in 1949, and approximately 50 soap operas have aired on the big three networks since. At 60-years-old "General Hospital" is the longest-running soap opera still airing, and holds the record for most Best Drama wins at 15. That program also holds the record for most Best Actor wins, with Anthony Geary alone winning eight for his role as Luke Spencer. ABC soaps also hold the records for most Best Actress wins, with six for Erika Slezak for her role as Victoria Lord on "One Life to Live," and for most nominations in that category, with Susan Lucci earning 21 bids for her role as Erica Kane on "All My Children." She finally -- famously -- won on her 19th nomination.

This year the Daytime Emmys celebrate their 50th anniversary with a telecast scheduled for June 16, 2023, on CBS.

    • I didn’t find it that interesting

    • I can't watch until later (Canada issues). What is Philip's motivation for stealing the drug? Only plot I cared about today and you did not mention it 
    • Doug III’s first day of work. Hope he does a good job… or that Tate tries to sabotage him somehow

      His scenes with Holly were nice though. They’re sweet together and I understand why some people think that they have more chemistry than Tate/Holly do. And I liked that Doug III opened up to her about his past. Maybe that could lead to something good happening in the future.  I also enjoyed Roman and Kate, and how they’re both being tied into EJ’s shooting. The mystery of it all is really compelling. I don’t think Roman is the shooter though either.  I didn’t have much sympathy for Kristen though. She has no one to blame for Rachel’s problems than herself. But at the same time, I’m really surprised that Days actually remembered the Alex/Kristen fling. I thought Ron had erased that from existence. I’m not shipping them at all, but I’m definitely shipping a permanent end to Brady/Kristen but after today, I’m not so sure about that either.  And, Johnny and Chanel were still great together

    • Some country club revelation thoughts from a casual watcher no one asked for. The Great: Daphnee Duplaix gave the best performance we've seen yet. Nicole's dialogue was also well thought out and felt character specific. TJ Maxx Ted was also pretty good. Trisha Mann-Grant steals every scene she's in. Often without even trying. Carrying multiple episodes worth of exposition heavy soap dialogue with starts and stops and recapping and drama and humor is no small feat and she nailed. Vernon telling Lesliana to STFU.  The Bad: So much of the dialogue for the rest of the cast was overly written. Martin said "You are a vile human being with a hole in your heart!". Marty, what are we doing? It's SO dramatic and sounds so silly coming from this grown man. Do Bill and Hayley do anything but talk about the Duprees? And the nerve of her to get so excited to find out Ted is a cheater when she and her husband are too. There should be a hint of shame mixed in with your glee, ma'am. The Questionable: Coffee and a rendition of Amazing Grace after finding out Nicole was betrayed by her husband. The Duprees are an odd bunch. The stinger of one segment had Anita prepared to lambast Lesliana, when we came back someone else was talking. When Anita eventually said something to Wig, it was a lukewarm at best. And then of course she thought singing a song about something that should absolutely not be extended to her son-in-law. The entire family allowing this deranged woman to speech at them in their own was...nuts. I know she said something about what would the neighbors say but my GOD. Is she just going to be allowed to trespass whenever she feels like it now? The focus on Leslie and her wig usage as an oddity is...odd. I think Chelsea said something like "and she wears wigs!" (while wearing a buss down middle part). Okay? It's just not that odd for a black woman to change up her hair. It's the different names that's the problem. I know it's meant to be humorous, in a throwback soap kind of way, but it fell flat for me.  I'm sorry I find the whole family to be WEIRD. It's like they want us to see them as ruthless yet benevolent, open yet furtive, snobbish yet tooth achingly sweet all at the same time. I cannot get a lock on the family dynamics. Everyone is just there.  I'm gonna cry if this show doesn't start giving us ages (or close to it!) for these characters. Because if Eva is 21-22 then Martin was being given crayons, a soda pop and blinders when he was 15-17 years old. Martin had to have been under 8 for me to buy this story, which would make Eva and Kat late 20s (Martin is at least 35 since he wants to run for president), which I don't think they're meant to be. It's honestly minor but it bothers me. I've mentioned this to @Vee but I think the optics on opening the show with both sisters discovering their husbands of over 30 years are cheaters should've been considered. I doubt there was any intention behind it, no one's rubbing their hands together as they scheme to say the married black men can't stay loyal but how does it look? Maybe it's just me. Honestly it's probably just me!
    • Thank you very much!!!! I really appreciate it!!! I also have read the GH coffee table book from the 90s!!!
    • For a homeless woman, June sure has nice teeth. I agree Ted didn't bring the power in the fallout scenes but to can him and leave Tomas, Martin and Derek onscreen? i'm not looking forward to Martin's secret being revealed and have him flail in the spotlight scenes. Yes, he's got a little better, but... When someone like Timon delivers with every line reading, you wonder how some other casting decisions were made. And I need sunglasses every time characters are at Uptown-is that green paint left over from GL's Cedars Hospital makeover? And for the cliffhanger, instead of the Door dash nonsense, simply have Leslie encounter Vanessa on her way out and push past her to enter. As there is no front door have Leslie barge into the living room, with Vanessa following.  Then Nicole can tell Vanessa- it's OK she can leave them alone.
    • My question was basically is Dani the only character to have a bedroom? And then the response was Jacob and Naomi ONLY have a bedroom as their set .
