On January 25 the national television academy announced the pre-nominations for the 2018 Daytime Emmy Awards, and “Days of Our Lives’ leads the way with 20 entries, followed by “General Hospital” with 17, “The Young and the Restless” with 15, and “The Bold and the Beautiful” rounding out the list with 9. Scroll down for the complete list of contenders.
These preliminary lists in the drama series acting categories were determined by eligible peer voters who watched sample performances from all entrants before selecting the top 10 contenders in each category. (Due to a tie, there are 11 pre-nominees for Best Actress.) These pre-nominees will now advance to the blue ribbon round starting on February 22, when voters will watch performance submissions to vote for the best. The blue ribbon round is especially consequential as it will determine the ultimate winners as well as the nominees.
The only categories that function differently in the pre-nominations are Best Younger Actor and Best Younger Actress.
