Daytime Emmy nominations announced

[colonial]

For outstanding game show, the nominees are WWTBAM, J! and TPiR

Game Show Host nominees are Barker, Sajak, Trebek, Vieira and Ben Bailey (*Cash Cab*)

Odd that there are only three nominees for best show and five for best host.

Complete list can be found here, J! and TPiR are nominated in other categories as well...

A few thoughts...

1) Did NBC submit *DoND* for consideration?  I'm stunned the show didn't get a single nomination -- the Daytime Emmy voters tend to give the "hip" shows of the moment nominations galore, regardless of quality (see Ray, Rachael and Banks, Tyra).

2) Was *1 vs. 100* eligible for this voting cycle?  

3) Nice to see the voters go off the board and give Ben Bailey a nomination.

I doubt it, seeing as DoND is not a daytime or syndicated show.

(Did they ever submit Regis when he was doing Millionaire? I'll happily eat my words if that's the case.)

They nominated the show in 2000 and it won.

Would you like your words raw or cooked?

He was nominated in 2000 and won in 2001.

Regis *WWTBAM* was eligible for the Daytime Emmy, and I believe won for Outstanding Game Show and Host at least once.

WBSM won in 1999, even though it was on at 7:30 p.m.

The academy has supposedly made some kind of rule change since then so prime time network games wouldn't have to compete in the daytime Emmys.

Is there a primetime emmy (either currently or in the works) for game show-related programming?  With the recent addition of new programming (Deal, 1v100, Fifth Grader), I think it seems possible....

[Joe Mello]

I know they have something for the reality shows, which is why The Amazing Race is chock full of Emmys.

[Chuck Sutton]

I believe after a Millionaire had been on a couple years, The Primetime Emmys added the Reality Competition categary for Millionaire and Survivor.  Before that all game shows were in the daytime Emmys.

Now prime time games are in the Reality  Competition category.


Survivor, The Amazing Race, and American Idol always get a spot.  after that this year who knows 1v 100 could senak in.
