This bit of news is actually how I found out about Ellen’s Daytime Emmy nominations… Late Friday, I got a bulletin from Judge David Young saying that his new show got nominated for ‘Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Program’.

Daytime TV’s first openly Gay Judge started delivering justice on TV with a Snap on September 10, 2007.

In his MySpace message Judge David stated:

“I can hardly believe it , but as you may have heard, our show has been nominated for a Daytime Emmy!

It’s the premiere year for the category of Outstanding Legal/Courtroom program and also our show’s premiere season, so I cannot begin to tell you my surprise and joy when I found out we earned a nomination.

In fact, cameras were rolling when I was given the news.

I’ve posted the video for you to see the actual moment!*

Fingers crossed (…with a snap, of course) and say a little prayer!”

Full Nomination List for Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Program:
- Judge David Young
- Cristina’s Court

The 35th Daytime Emmy Awards will be telecast on June 20, 2008 on ABC at 8:00 p.m. (ET) Live from Hollywood’s’ Kodak Theatre.
