Notably this year, the Australian soap opera, Neighbors, has managed two nominations. This is despite being cancelled by its original network. And later picked up by Amazon. The soap scene has seen some significant changes. Such as the removal of the younger performer award, which was last won by Eden McCoy from General Hospital.
Star power is not lacking for the Daytime Emmy Awards with the likes of Tamara Braun, Finola Hughes, Katherine Kelly Lang, Annika Noelle, Michelle Stafford, and Cynthia Watros vying for best actress in a daytime drama. For lead actors, Eric Braden, Scott Clifton, Thorsten Kay, Eric Martsolf, and John McCook are the prime contenders.
The awards also pay tribute to excellence in technical aspects, with nominations in the categories of lighting direction, technical direction, camerawork and video, casting, art direction, set decoration and scenic design, costume design and styling, and hairstyling and makeup.
