‘The Young and the Restless’ News: Find Out How The CBS Soap Fared At The 42nd Annual Daytime Emmys [PHOTOS, VIDEO]
The Young and the Restless had 25 nominations for the 42nd Annual Daytime Emmy Awards, which took place Sunday at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, Calif.
Of those 25 nominations, the CBS soap won six of them, including a very soap opera-ish tie for Outstanding Drama Series with NBC soap Days of Our Lives.
Other major wins for The Young and the Restless consist of Amelia Heinle getting her second Emmy in the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series category and Hunter King winning her second Emmy in the Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series category.

King was stoked to win yet again and celebrated by taking a selfie with the soap's associate producer Jimmy Freeman.
