“The Ellen DeGeneres Show” and “Sesame Street” landed a half-dozen wins apiece on Friday night as the Daytime Emmy Creative Arts Awards were handed out in Los Angeles.
DeGeneres’ syndie yakker, a perennial Daytime Emmy darling, won a craft and technical awards as well as a nod for directing a talkshow or morning program, in a tie with NBC’s “Today.”
“Sesame Street” took the statuette for preschool program as well as writing and directing for a children’s program. Kevin Clash, the puppeteer who left the show last November after more than 20 years as the beloved Elmo character amid revelations about his sexual relations, won for performer in a children’s program. He also shared in the directing award for “Sesame Street” with three others: Ken Diego, Joey Mazzarino and Matt Vogel.
Cabler the Hub prevailed in the children’s program category with its “R.L. Stine’s The Haunting Hour” series. Children’s animation program honors went to “Kung Fu Panda: Children of Awesomeness.”
Ziggy Marley picked up an Emmy for original song in a children’s or animation program, for “I Love You Too!” from Disney Channel’s”3rd and Bird.”
The syndicated gaverler “Judge Judy” won for legals/courtroom program.
In all, CBS and PBS programs won 13 trophies, followed by syndicated programs with nine and the Hub and Nickelodeon with seven apiece. CBS’ haul was paced by soaps “The Young and the Restless” and “The Bold and the Beautiful,” which grabbed five wins apiece.
The non-televised kudocast was held at downtown L.A.’s Westin Bonaventure hotel, and was hosted by voice-over stars Terese Ganzel and Bob Bergen. The remaining categories will be presented Sunday at the Beverly Hilton in a ceremony telecast live on HLN.
