Ellen DeGeneres won best talk show host for the fourth consecutive year, plus she took home the award for best talk show. There was also a first at this year’s Daytime Emmy’s, two soap operas tied for best dramatic series - “Guiding Light” and “The Young and the Restless.” Bob Barker, who retired from “The Price is Right” took home the award for best game show host.

In Ellen’s acceptance speech for best talk show host, she praised Rosie O’Donnell who was not in attendance at the award show.

When she won the award for best talk show host, beating O’Donnell and the other co-hosts of “The View,” DeGeneres said the prize really belonged to O’Donnell, whose outspokenness shook up the program before she left this spring after a fight with a co-host and a failure to reach a new contract.

“I liked what she did. This was the year she should have won. I wanted to acknowledge Rosie because she has done a lot. … I don’t know who should replace her but I don’t think it should be Paris Hilton. That would not work,” she said.
