Stream The Daytime Emmy Awards
The easiest way to watch all of The Daytime Emmy Awards is Paramount+, as the streaming service provides a live feed of your local CBS station.
Paramount+ offers a 7-day free trial so that you can try the service with no risk. However, there are two plan options to choose from:
Paramount+ Premium: Provides live streaming access to your local CBS station so you can watch The Daytime Emmy Awards when it airs. This plan also provides on-demand ad-free access to Paramount+ content. After the 7-day free trial, the service price starts at $11.99. Paramount+ also has a $5.99 per month tier, but that plan doesn’t include live CBS.
Paramount+ is available on Roku Players, Apple TV, Xbox, Chromecast, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Fire TV Stick. See our review of Paramount+ for more information on this streaming service.
Watch The Daytime Emmy Awards Free
There are two free methods to watch new episodes of The Daytime Emmy Awards if you don’t have cable. If you live close enough to a CBS broadcast tower, you can use a TV antenna, but this option doesn’t provide a way to watch on-demand. An OTA DVR offers a way to record shows from a TV antenna, but that is an added expense.
Alternatively, you can take advantage of the free trials available with the following streaming services that carry a live stream of CBS:
- Paramount+ (7-day free trial)
- YouTube TV (free trial)
We cover these services in more detail throughout this article.
