39th Annual DAYTIME Entertainment EMMY® AWARDS

Welcome!
On behalf of our Board and the 12,000 members of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS), I welcome you to the 39th annual telecast of the Daytime Entertainment Emmy® Awards. I also would like to welcome our partners in this year’s telecast, The HLN Television Network and Locomotive, Inc.
For the first time in our history, we are bringing the Daytime Emmy® Awards to you live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, and we have put together an exciting evening to celebrate and honor the best of Daytime Television!
We are also excited to be presenting the esteemed Daytime Emmy® Awards, once again, to our many viewers and fans across the world as a live broadcast. We are proud to continue honoring Daytime Television, the dramas, the talk shows, morning shows, entertainment, culinary, courtroom, game show, children’s and
educational programming on national television, a grand tradition for the past 39 years.
In addition to our esteemed nominees, tonight we honor Bill Geddie, an icon in the television industry. When he created “The View” fourteen years ago, Bill introduced a new and innovative daytime television talk show format. With his many contributions to Daytime television over a long career, we at the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences are proud to have Bill receive our 2012 Daytime Lifetime Achievement Award.
This evening’s festivities would not be possible without the help of all our partners and sponsors, and we thank them for their commitment to Daytime Television and NATAS. In addition, we want to thank our dedicated staff, our National Trustees, and Awards Committee members for all of their tireless work in making tonight’s show a success.
While thanking our colleagues at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for helping make the 39th Annual Daytime Entertainment Emmy® Awards a memorable event, we especially would like to thank you, the Daytime Community, for your enthusiasm, your talent and your dedication to excellence which we honor this evening.
We look forward to seeing you again next year for our 40th Daytime Emmy telecast gala.
Sincerely,

39th Annual DAYTIME Entertainment EMMY® AWARDS

By Allison J. WaldmanThe National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) is honoring Bill Geddie with the 39th Annual Daytime Entertainment Emmy Awards Lifetime Achievement Award. The Academy cites “The View” executive producer and co-producer of “The Barbara Walters Specials” for his contributions to the television industry as a writer, producer and director. In his 30 plus year career, Geddie has distinguished himself as both inventive and prolific. In fact, according to Malachy Wienges, NATAS Chairman, “Bill Geddie is an icon in the television industry. When he and Barbara Walters created ‘The View’ 15 years ago, they introduced a new and innovative daytime television talk show format.”
Geddie doesn’t think of himself as an icon. He’s still a guy from San Antonio, Texas, who started out in television by buffing the floors at KOCO-TV in Oklahoma City. He had his communications degree from the University of Texas at Austin and was looking for a foot in the door. He found it at the Oklahoma City TV station because he’d discovered that… “When you buffed the floors…they let you run camera for the local news.”
Today, from his perch as the main man behind the scenes at “The View,” Geddie still has the same down-to-earth approach to his work. He’s flattered by the compliment, but he doesn’t fully believe it. “I think that’s really nice, but all of us who work in daytime television, we know it’s not a place of great glamour and glory. It is not that kind of job. It’s a working class art. We get up in the morning, come in with our pencils sharpened and we make a television show.”
In his tenure on “The View,” and going back more than two decades with Barbara Walters on her groundbreaking TV specials, Geddie has excelled as a man who brings creativity, candor, wit and wisdom to his craft. To Barbara Walters, the word she thinks best describes him is “unique.”
To the four other ladies on the show, leadership was mentioned more than once. Sherri Shepherd says of Geddie, “He’s a great leader because he knows how to motivate me to do better and take more risks.” Elisabeth Hasselbeck compared Geddie to a great coach. “My husband played for the best coaches in the NFL. There were some that he, to this day, will mark as the best leaders he has worked with. Bill has been exactly that for me. …Working with Bill [for me] has been one of the most fulfilling professional experiences.”
Vicki Dummer, head of ABC Daytime, especially appreciates
Geddie’s many contributions to the “The View.” “As executive producer, he brings his creativity and fantastic instincts to every facet of the show. Whether behind-the-camera leading the staff or in front of the camera lending his comedic abilities when participating in custom commercials or comedy segments, he is a consummate professional and the show’s fearless leader.”
Throughout the industry, Geddie is respected for his leadership as well as being a consummate professional. When Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly, host of “The O’Reilly Factor,” and a frequent guest on “The View,” was asked to assess Geddie, he evoked memories of John Wayne. To O’Reilly, Geddie has grit. “Bill Geddie is a real pro. He’s an honest guy, that’s where we start. He gives people a fair hearing,

which is rare in the ruthless world of big time television. He understands talent and is a master at pacing a program. Also, Geddie can handle ‘hot’ personalities, not an easy thing.”
Sometimes the hot personalities have been the show’s regulars. Rosie O’Donnell and Elisabeth Hasselbeck fussed and feuded on air, at one time, creating tension, but never derailed the show. That may be because “The View” is a family. Whoopi Goldberg says of her place on the show, “There really is no way to explain this gig, except to say family. With all that family brings…and Bill being my twin brother, I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Bill is a pleasure and a challenge, as he is wrangling five people and isn’t foaming at the mouth!”
Joy Behar concurs with Whoopi. “His temperament is suited to dealing with five women (all of whom have different ways of looking at the world). Bill has a great sense of humor and understands comedy very well, which has been particularly important to me. It’s been 15 years of laughing and productive work with him.”
Geddie has successfully navigated the straits of daytime television to keep “The View” on course and thriving. The show received the 2003 Daytime Emmy Award for “Outstanding Talk Show” and is the recipient of numerous Daytime Emmy Award Nominations, including 12 for Outstanding Talk Show. In 2009, Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Sherri Shepherd won the Outstanding Talk Show Host Emmy, the first time in the 36-year history of NATAS that multiple talk show hosts were bestowed this honor.
Dummer credits much of that success to Geddie. “Over the years he has evolved the show, replaced some of the co-hosts and yet maintained the integrity and appeal of the show. ‘Hot Topics’ have become part of the American lexicon. The chemistry and dynamic energy of the hosts, both past and present, has never been successfully duplicated.”
Walters knows well that Bill has been her stalwart partner through all the years. “He is the master, and God knows how, but he keeps
five women calm and satisfied without playing favorites or ever losing his temper.”
For Geddie, as important as his success with “The View” has been, it’s his 25-year partnership with Walters that is most special to him. “It’s the most significant working relationship in my career,” he said. Indeed, their collaboration has endured and prospered where others have withered and died.
With Geddie’s help, the original concept for “The Barbara Walters Specials” – the shows that set the standard for celebrity interviews, with Barbara having sit-downs with everyone from Boris Yeltsin to Barbra Streisand – changed. Together, Barbara and Bill reinvigorated the concept when they created “Barbara Walters’ 10 Most
Fascinating People,” an annual program that has become must-see viewing. The show allows Walters to apply her skills as a communicator with notables from all walks of life, athletes, actors, politicians and people in the news.
There is a reason why the Geddie-Walters partnership works, and it involves a simple philosophy. According to Geddie, Barbara told him at the start… “‘I’ve worked with some very headstrong producers before. So here’s my rule. If you feel strongly and I don’t, then you win. If I feel strongly and you, I don’t, then I win. But if I feel strongly and you feel strongly, then I win.’ And I got it. We’ve always followed that rule and I can’t think of that many times we’ve locked horns. Barbara is up front about everything; you don’t have to guess how she feels, you know. It’s been a great relationship.”
According to ABC’s Daytime chief Dummer, “Bill and Barbara have their finger on the pulse of what America wants to talk about. They have created appointment television that ignites water cooler conversations.”
Geddie views this Lifetime Achievement award as recognition for his peers. “I’m accepting for every other producer who’s sitting out there in the crowd. That’s an important thing in daytime because this is a workhorse business. It is very cool to be honored, and I hope the other producers feel that way.” n
Bill Geddie continued from page 14

Who is
BILL GEDDIE Anyway?
By Barbara Walters
a ctually Bill Geddie is my alter ego… except that he doesn’t have any ego. He sits there with his
shiny bald head and dead pan face, and lets me take credit for 26 years of working together, co-producing all of the “Barbara Walters Specials” and, almost 16 years as co-executive producer of “The View”. On the specials, especially for “The Ten Most Fascinating People”, we choose the guests together, write the interviews together, edit the show together and apologize together to the people who are sure they should have been on the list. In those cases, I say that Bill makes up the list. He insists to them, that I do. Bill does direct the program by himself, writes all the introductions and gives me wardrobe advice which is usually terrible. Well, nobody’s perfect!
On “The View”, simply put, Bill is its heart and soul of the show. He is the master. And God knows how, but he keeps five women calm and satisfied without playing favorites or ever losing his temper. After 61 Emmy nominations and 28 Emmy wins, I am convinced that without Bill, there would never have been “The View”.
Bill and I don’t always agree, but we have never had a serious argument or greeted each other with anything, but respect and affection. There isn’t a producer who deserves a Lifetime Achievement Award more than Bill Geddie. A lifetime is almost too short for me to be working with him. n

August 1997 “The View” premieres on ABC Daytime starring Barbara Walters and a panel of other women -- Meredith Vieira, star Jones and
Debbie Matenopoulos on day one – to talk about the events of the day in a talk show setting. Joy Behar comes on board the next day. Reviews
are generally favorable from the start, although some claim the show is a ‘guilty pleasure.’ Nevertheless, ABC is enthusiastic and the show
gains popularity. December 1998 Debbie Matenopoulos leaves the show. August 1999 Lisa Ling joins the program.
November 2003 Elisabeth Hasselbeck, best known as a contestant on the CBS reality hit “Survivor,” replaces Ling. May 2003 “The View” wins
the Daytime Emmy as Outstanding Talk Show (in a tie with “The Wayne Brady Show”). April 2006 Meredith Vieira decides to leave “The View”
for a place on NBC’s “Today.” April 2006 At the Daytime Emmy awards, ABC announces that multiple Emmy-award winning daytime talk show
host, Rosie O’Donnell, will take over for Vieira. O’Donnell is convinced after Barbara Walters approaches her personally. June 2006 star Jones
decides to leave the show, making a live on-air statement that she would not be returning next season. The following day Barbara Walters
opened the show by saying “and then there were three.” Also, Vieira appears for the last time, and her co-hosts give her a roast. September
2006 Rosie O’Donnell joins the show, boosting the ratings significantly, and attracting many new viewers. April 2007 Rosie announces that
when her contract is up and she’ll be leaving “The View.” May 2007 Rosie and Elisabeth engage in heated political debates that create serious
controversy around “The View.” On May 23, Rosie signs off of “The View.” August 2007 Oscar-winner Whoopi Goldberg is named the new
moderator of “The View.” September 2007 sherri shepherd officially named co-host. August 2009 The hosts of “The View” win the Daytime
Emmy as Outstanding Talk Show Host(s). Their win is historic, the first time in the history of NATAS that multiple hosts were bestowed the honor
of “Outstanding Talk Show Host” (it always went to a single host -even though they were nominated each year). The episode submitted was March
28, 2008, with then Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama was the guest. September 2009 New set is unveiled along with new
graphics. ViewTube is introduced. July 2010 President Barack Obama appears, the first time a sitting U.S. President appeared on a talk show.
6.59 million viewers tune in, making it the most watched episode ever of the program. September 2010 After a four-month hiatus to undergo
heart surgery, Barbara Walters returns. However she had briefly returned for one day in July for President Obama’s appearance and appeared via
Skype after her surgery. February 2012 star Jones returns as a guest. n

I n his capacity as the executive producer of ABC’s “The View” and Barbara Walters partner on her
iconic television specials, Bill Geddie has made a name for himself as one of the top pros in not just daytime television, but the industry overall. On the occasion of his receiving the 39th Annual Daytime Entertainment Emmy Awards Lifetime Achievement Award, we spoke to Bill about his career, his accomplishments and the future.
Q: What was your reaction to hearing that you’re receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award?
Bill Geddie: I said I’m far too young. Those were exactly my words. But the person calling with the news said, “Well, we can’t guarantee that you’ll get it in ten years, you better take it now!” So I’m taking it and I’m very happy to have it.
Q: You’ve been called a TV “icon.” Are you an icon?
BG: Well, I think that’s really nice, but for me, icons are people who’ve done great things. Dick Clark is a producing icon. Fred De Cordova (of “The Tonight Show”)…people like that. I don’t fall into that category. Daytime is not a place for sissies. It’s a tough person’s business. You make television everyday. Q: Still “The View” is an iconic, pioneering effort. Nobody had done a show like that before…
BG: There’s no question about that. I credit ABC with having the guts to go with it when we said we wanted to do a show where we could talk about anything. They wondered if we meant sex, and I said, “Not just sex, I mean abortion, politics, capital punishment, people in the news, things you’re going to be uncomfortable with. We’re going to disagree with each other.” Everyone we spoke with outside of ABC thought it was not proper daytime fare.
Q: Why?BG: They felt that in television you could do an inspirational show like “Oprah” or a straightforward entertainment or even a silly show. There was nothing that kept women at home in touch with what was going on in the world. They thought “The View” was highbrow. It’s hard to look at our show now and imagine that, but at that time, that’s how they saw the show. We were not speaking down to women. We were speaking to them as equals. That was revolutionary. We felt that women deserved a show like “The View,” and women embraced it quickly.
Q: Tell me about your first meeting with Barbara Walters for the TV specials…
BG: I got a call from Phyllis McGrady. She said, “Do you want my job?” I said, “You produce the Barbara Walters TV specials; that’s the best job in television.” Well, she had some other stuff going on, so she said to me, “You have to convince Barbara.” Barbara hadn’t been thrilled with some of the people she’d worked with before.
Q: What happened?
BG: I told her, “Look, You don’t know me very well, sojustconsiderthatI’mfiredafterthefirstshow.” It was the “50th Barbara Walters Special,” a two-hour look back. It was the perfect way to start. I had to look at everything and I had to write and work with her. There was a lot of back and forth. It was a great relief for her that she could get rid of me after that show. Then, somewhere around halfway through,

she asked me what I had in mind for the next show. I said that I wasn’t sure I was doing her next special and she said, “Bill, you can’t just work on one program at a time. We do six shows a year.” I said okay and that was the last conversation we ever had about my employment.
Q: How did you settle on the “Ten Most Fascinating People” shows?
BG: We got bored with the TV specials, interviewing the same movie stars and celebrities. So I said, “Let’s do a show where we can talk to politicians, business people, athletes as well as movie stars.” She said, “Great.” It was a huge hit and we’ve never looked back. It’s been almost 20 years. We can deal with everyone we want to in “Fascinating People.”
Q: You clearly work well together…
BG: One of the things I’m proudest of, one of my greatest accomplishments has been to make sure that Barbara remained relevant and at the center of this business for as long as she wants to be. As long as she wants to do it, we’ll stay on top of things. And we have.
Q: What’s the best part of being an executive producer?
BG: Being hands on. Nobody can tell me to go away. They try, but they can’t. When I tried screenwriting, I wrote this script – “Unforgettable”-- and I got sole credit. But they basically told me to go away. Then at this
special screening, they invited people to give their assessment. So I went and people were laughing hysterically and it was not a comedy. Iwasneversomortifiedinmylife.Outonthe street, there was a girl standing there, and she said, “Who writes [expletive] like this?” And that’s the last movie I made. They don’t say that about “The View.”
Q: What do you envision in your future?
BG: I want to do more shows. I’d like to announce this year that I’ve got another daytime show, a cable show. I just want to do more. I want to grow my company and do different types of things.
Q: Are you looking forward to being honored at the Emmys?
BG: I’m a nervous wreck about it because it’s sort of hard to look at yourself in this way If I were sitting with everyone else, I might be thinking, “What is it about this guy?” Well, I started as a local cameraman in Oklahoma City, Atlanta and Cleveland. I became a producer and worked with Maria Shriver for many years. Then, on “Good Morning America,” I was a producer with David Hartman, so from my point of view, the Emmys are honoring a producer. I’m accepting the honor for every other producer. n
Congratulations
Your achievements keep us inspired.
