The coronavirus has changed yet another way that Hollywood is running in 2020, shifting the Daytime Emmys to a remote event for the first time ever to air on CBS.
The hosts of the network's daytime show “The Talk” — Sharon Osbourne, Sheryl Underwood, Eve, Carrie Ann Inaba and Marie Osmond — will preside over the two-hour telecast airing Friday on CBS.
The show was originally scheduled to take place at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium on June 12, but those plans were pushed back as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
