CBS Leads the Field in Daytime Program Emmy Bids : Television: The ratings leader collects 78 of this year’s 215 nominations. ABC shows got 37, NBC earned 29 and PBS won 22.

Ratings leadership was mirrored in the 18th annual Daytime Emmy Award nominations Thursday as CBS garnered more than ABC and NBC combined, including 16 for its soap opera “Guiding Light” and 14 for the children’s series “Pee-wee’s Playhouse.”

CBS, the No. 1 network in daytime ratings and winner of 12 Daytime Emmys last year to lead all networks, collected 78 of this year’s 215 nominations. ABC shows got 37, NBC earned 29 and PBS won 22. Syndicated programs got 32, cable programs picked up 14 and Fox got 3.

Among the nominations for “Guiding Light” was one as best daytime drama series, along with CBS’ “The Young and the Restless” and “As the World Turns,” and ABC’s “All My Children.”

But NBC’s “Santa Barbara,” which had won as best soap for the past two years, failed to receive a nomination in that category Thursday, although it picked up 10 others, including one for A Martinez, who won as best actor last year.

Other winners from last year who were nominated this year included actress Julia Barr of “All My Children,” actor Andrew Kavovit of “As the World Turns,” talk show host Joan Rivers and game show hosts Alex Trebek and Bob Barker (they tied last year).

And television’s best-known Emmy loser also was nominated again: Susan Lucci, who plays Erica Kane Montgomery on ABC’s “All My Children.” This was her 12th consecutive nomination; she has yet to win.

Her competitors for the best actress Emmy are fellow cast member Barr, Finola Hughes of “General Hospital,” Jeanne Cooper of “The Young and the Restless” and Elizabeth Hubbard of “As the World Turns.”

Whoopi Goldberg, who won an Academy Award earlier this year for her supporting role in “Ghost,” was nominated for two Emmys: as the voice of the character Gaia in the cartoon series “Captain Planet and the Planeteers,” and as co-executive producer of a children’s special, “Tales from the Whoop: Hot Rod Brown, Class Clown” on Nickelodeon.

The Emmys, covering the period between March 6, 1990, and March 5, 1991, will be announced in two installments. Winners in the technical categories will be announced in nontelevised ceremonies June 22, while the ones for performers and programs will be handed out June 27 in ceremonies that will be broadcast for the first time in prime time.

The awards are given jointly by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences in Los Angeles and the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences in New York.
