During the broadcast, NATAS Chairman Terry Reilly noted that this was the first major awards show since the end of the Hollywood strikes, which forced the postponement of the Daytime Emmys until late fall. For example, this program honored programs that were broadcast from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022.

Reilly also took a moment to recognize the life of TV titan Norman Lear.
