In between, the telecast moved around to different cable networks and was streamed.

Adam Sharp and Lisa Armstrong are executive producers from NATAS, while David McKenzie is executive producer from ATI.

The Daytime Emmys will air on CBS on Friday, June 7 at 8 p.m. ET/PT and will stream live and on demand on Paramount Plus.
