The Daytime Emmy Awards is an annual ceremony celebrating American daytime television programming excellence. Organized by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS), it was first held in 1974 and honors outstanding achievements in various categories, including daytime dramas, talk shows, game shows, children’s programming, and digital content. In 2021, NATAS and the Television Academy realigned the Daytime and Primetime Emmy Awards to be organized by content genre rather than program airtime.
