The show's other full circle moment involved a member of its writing team, Jamey Giddens, who earned his first Daytime Emmy.

'We love you, and we miss you every day,' Carlivati shared. That man was Days of our Lives head writer Ron Carlivati, who had previously served as head writer of One Life to Live when King played Tomas Delgado.Ĭarlivati took the stage and thanked NBC execs' 'supportive and enthusiastic' support as well as the support at Peacock, the exclusive streaming home of DAYS and its Emmy-nominated spinoff Beyond Salem.Ĭarlivati also thanked the 'amazing talented cast and crew, especially Bill Hayes, our 97-year old cast member who let us put glowing contact lenses in his eyes so the devil could come back to Salem and possess Marlena.' Carlivati dedicated the win to 'friend and colleague Betsy Snyder' who passed away following a brief illness last year.

As King opened the envelope to announce the winner, he smiled and remarked, 'This man used to write beautiful storyline for me.' The award was presented by Ted King, a multi-soap vet who won his first Daytime Emmy last week in the Outstanding Guest Performer category.
