Last night\'s Daytime Emmy Award GS winners were:

- Outstanding Game Show: The Price Is Right

- Outstanding Game Show Host: Ben Bailey (third time; Cash Cab aired its last episodes during the eligibility period)

Also, Doug Davidson won the award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Dramatic Series, and Game Show Marathon host Ricki Lake won for Outstanding Talk Show Host, but her show was canceled.

And needless to say, nice, classy tributes to Monty Hall and to Bob Stewart (with the always pleasant to see Betty White).

There was supposed to be a video tribute to Monty, but it never aired because Wayne Brady went off-script. Monty mentioned it as being narrated by his daughter, Joanna Gleason. Too bad.

It really is too bad. Seeing how Bob Stewart\'s was done with a clip from the first episode of TPIR with Cullen, it makes me wonder what they pulled out for Monty\'s.

I tried looking for that video tribute on HLN's site, no go.

Also, the "In Memoriam" segment barred Bill Rafferty.

The best part had to be the Bob Stewart tribute.

If they ever have the guts to do the 41st ceremony, they shouldn't air on HLN. I've thought about some other suggested venues:
E! (No, that's the network of the Kar-DUMB-ians)
WE (No, that's the "Bridezillas" network)
MyRetro, a.k.a. RTV (Then they'd have to invite Wolfman Mac as a presenter. He could do the animation honors.)
Syndication (That's the best possible choice)

You know, no matter how hard they try to improve the ceremony, it only ends up worse overall; although a few moments do stand out. So can we stick a fork in the Daytime Emmys and say they're history?

Cordially,
Tammy

P.S. Wayne Brady is now 0 for 4 in the Outstanding Game Show Host category. Looks like Geno is off the hook for now. (His 1999 Lifetime Achievement honor notwithstanding. And that was awarded late in the year. I predict the same thing will happen to the Winkster this year, if not while he's still walking the face of the earth.)

That\'s nice.

A word of warning--searching Google for \"MyRetro\" produced an adult site as the first result. I have never heard of MyRetro. MeTV maybe? Retro Television Network? If you\'re putting the Daytime Emmys on a digital subchannel, you\'re losing many potential viewers due to a lack of carriage and because at least with AT&T U-Verse in my area, a lack of carriage by cable providers. If the Daytime Emmys get relegated to a digital subchannel, you might as well host them in my backyard.

Yes, that is assuredly what they did. You have just described what a live broadcast is, Dan.

Well, except that a show which was scheduled to go two hours went slightly longer than two and a half. To not run a video tribute package you produced just because your presenter didn\'t read his cue cards right seems pretty arbitrary. A strong host (or a strong producer shouting into his host\'s ear) would have swooped in, made a joke, and run the tribute while Monty was out there.

/What\'s that? Sam Champion and Robin Meade? Oh, OK, never mind.

Can you get Wolfman Mac?

Cheesy humor.

Somehow, \"Me TV\" seems like it should be an all-awards show channel.

or a show starring Al Franken

Ah yes, I remember...is the video still AWOL? (As in, not posted online or anything?) Still good to see Monty though. That presentation had a lot of mistakes...the misses/not-even-tries on the 7-second delay with the In Memoriam intro, for example.
