Daytime Emmy opportunities

   Want to attend The 35th annual Daytime Emmy Awards? How about appear on the live telecast?

   Both opportunities are available for those interested. You have to buy your ticket to be there, however, but you don’t have to be there to be on the broadcast.

   Tickets, which range from $60 to $150, are available from all Ticketmaster locations. Airline tickets to get to the event, which will air live at 7 p.m. June 20 from Hollywood’s famed Kodak Theatre, are a bit more.

   For a chance to appear on the awards show, all you have to do is answer the following question: “How has your favorite daytime show changed your life?” OK, it’s not quite that simple.

   Producers of the event are asking viewers to send in stories of how their favorite network or cable daytime shows — be it drama, talk, court or children’s programming  — have had a significant impact in their lives, whether through characters, story or a particular show host.

   Select stories will be showcased during the ceremony. The stories should be 250 words or less and can be submitted via www.ABC.com or www.SOAPnet.com. Deadline for stores is May 23.

   “The Young and the Restless” is the favorite among Emmy voters, as the CBS series received 17 nominations. Tied with 13 nominations are “The Guiding Light” (CBS), “One Life to Live” (ABC) and “Sesame Street” (PBS).
