The nominees for the 45th annual Daytime Emmy Awards are out, and CBS leads all networks with 66 nominations. Two streaming networks have the next-most nominations: Netflix has 51, and Amazon has 49. NBC has 35 and ABC has 33, though those are for shows running on the networks, not including shows produced by NBCU and ABC/Disney for syndication.

Among TV news programs, the usual suspects are nominated for Outstanding Morning Program: CBS Sunday Morning, CBS This Morning, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today show.
