Daytime Emmys found a home on TV


The Daytime Emmys have found a home on television: the awards ceremony
will air live on the HLN network on June 23 at 8pm ET/5pm PT.

"The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS), is very
excited to announce that the 2012 Daytime Entertainment Emmy Awards
will be broadcast live on HLN on Saturday, June 23, from the Beverly
Hilton Hotel, in Beverly Hills, California," said Malachy Wienges,
Chairman of NATAS. "Working with the show's producer, Gabriel Gornell
of LocoDistro, we are preparing a new, fresh, creative show that will
honor all the genres that make Daytime Television part of our daily
lives. These shows include Daytime Dramas, Children’s and Animation
Programming, Game Shows, Courtroom, Talk, Culinary, and the Morning
Shows."

"HLN is thrilled to work with NATAS to celebrate some of television’s
best programs and performances," said Scot Safon, Executive Vice
President & General Manger, HLN. "Every day, we focus on the news and
information people talk about, and that has included extensive
coverage of the Daytime Emmys in the past. This year, we’re very
excited to also be carrying the event itself."

This will mark the first time that the Daytime Emmys ceremony will be
broadcast on cable. It also marks the first time that the show will
air live in all time zones.
