Post by: johnnya2k3 on April 30, 2006, 02:33:27 AM

In case you didn't know, the Daytime Emmy Awards were last night (4/28), and Jeopardy! once again took the top game show honors for Outstanding Game Show and Host (Alex Trebek, his fourth).

Let's try this again:

And the awards for "J!" and Trebek were the only game show nods of the night--tech awards were shut out and it looks like directing's been folded into "Special Class," like writing.

I heard that there were a lot of technical problems during the show, the show was pretty much a shill for ABC Daytime, and children's programming (most notably the Lifetime Achievement award that Big Bird/Carroll Spinney was shoved to the side) was hardly existent. However, I haven't seen any accounts about these mishaps except on Game Show News Net. Where can I read about all these problems that took place that isn't necessarily hearsay?

  I did tape it. Normally, when someone wins a Lifetime Achievement award, he/she gets on stage, gets a standing ovation, etc. But not Carroll Spinney, who has been on one show for almost 37 years.

  SoapNet airs a replay Saturday morning at 9 a.m.

This year's Daytime Emmys was basically a three hour ABC Soap love-fest.
