The Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series is an award presented annually by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS) and Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (ATAS). It was first awarded at the 24th Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony, held in 1972, when the award was originally called Outstanding Achievement in a Daytime Drama for two years.[1][2]
The first daytime-themed Emmy Awards were presented in 1974, when this award was renamed Outstanding Drama Series and given in honor of a daytime drama.[2] The awards ceremony was not televised in 1983 and 1984, having been criticized for lack of integrity.[3][4]
The award was first presented to The Doctors, which first aired in 1963. General Hospital holds the record for the most awards, winning on seventeen occasions. In 2007, Guiding Light and The Young and the Restless tied, which was the first tie in this category. The Young and the Restless has also received the most nominations, with a total of thirty-three. ABC has been the most successful network, with a total of twenty-one wins.
As of the 2024 ceremony, General Hospital is the most recent recipient of the award.
