The Daytime Emmy Awards were this weekend, and if you are a normal person with a life or a family or other rational interests, you probably don’t know that there even is such a thing as the Daytime Emmys. Congratulations. We’re jealous. Allow us to pollute your mind with meaningless knowledge which will be of no use to you ever. The Daytime Emmys Awards ceremony hands out awards that the public cares even less about than the actual Emmys. For example, Rachel Ray won best Talk Show-Entertainment Host, and Tyra Banks won best Talk Show-Informative Host. We do not know the difference either. We know that no one has ever been informed by Tyra Banks, nor entertained by Rachel Ray. If anything, we would have thought Rachel Ray’s show would be the informative one, because she’ll at least show you how to make a sammy while gabbing with Julianna Margulies. But that’s the Daytime Emmys for ya! They also give out awards to soap operas, game shows and Meredith Vieira. Here’s a list of winners. Knock yourself out.
The most interesting news, (if you can call news “interesting” about a show that gave an award to “Cash Cab”) is that the co-hosts of “The View” won the award for Best Talk Show Host(s). They’ve been nominated 11 years in a row. Never won. So naturally, none of them showed up – not even Sherri Shepherd. To make up for giving “The View” any sort of encouragement, the Daytime Emmys then actually did the only cool thing they’ve ever done — a tribute to “Sesame Street” embedded below. Damn you, Daytime Emmys, you won us over. You obviously know our soft spot.
