In the new issue of TV Guide, ABC Daytime publicist Jori Petersen says, "At this time, neither ABC nor SOAPnet has plans to broadcast the event."
The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences is now offering the show to other networks and cable channels, and is proceeding as if all will be well.
"We hope to know what's happening by December," says NATAS executive director Brent Stanton. "I'm just keeping my fingers crossed. I've got lots of people who want an answer."

ReplyDeleteAll, I can say is WOW! Thats to bad! I would have thought that cbs would have been more than o.k., with having the emmies since I really hope that Ms.Thoms would be the one to walk away with the emmy. That says everything you need to know about how the networks fell about the daytime drama!
