Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series (Daytime Emmy Award)

Daytime Emmy Award

The Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series is an award presented annually by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences and Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. It was first awarded at the 6th Daytime Emmy Awards in 1979 and it is given to honor an actor who has delivered an outstanding performance in a supporting role while working within the daytime drama industry. The awards ceremony was not televised in 1983 and 1984, having been criticized for voting integrity. Following the introduction of a new category in 1985, Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series, the criteria for this category was altered, requiring all actors to be aged 26 or above. Scott Clifton, for his portrayal of Liam Spencer, on The Bold and The Beautiful and Billy Miller, for his portrayal of Billy Abbott on The Young and The Restless tied as the 2013 recipients of the award. General Hospital is the show with the most awarded actors, with a total of nine wins. The award was first presented to Peter Hansen for his portrayal of Lee Baldwin on General Hospital. Since 1994, Justin Deas holds the most wins with a total of four awards for his work on As the World Turns, Santa Barbara and Guiding Light. In 1999, Jerry Ver Dorn had reached seven nominations, surpassing Justin Deas' previous record. However Deas' reached seven nominations in 2005. In 2009, Jeff Branson and Vincent Irizarry tied for the award, which was the first tie in this category.
