Daytime Emmy Change: TV Insider reports that the Daytime Emmy Awards will be introducing a new category called Emerging Talent in a Daytime Drama Series. In 2023, the category honoring younger actors, Outstanding Younger Performer in a Drama Series, was retired. Rachel Schwartz, Head of Daytime and Children & Family Emmy Awards, told the site that the new category is “specifically for people who are on their first daytime contract, so there is not necessarily an age parameter with it.
