The Daytime Emmys will once again air on HLN with hosts Sam Champion, AJ Hammer and Robin Meade.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Daytime Emmys, which encompass talk shows, game shows and soaps.

The telecast will air Sunday, June 16 from 8 to 10 p.m.

It’s the second consecutive year that cable’s HLN — the sister network of CNN — has aired the ceremony, after low ratings caused the major broadcast networks to drop the telecast.

Both Meade (“Morning Express”) and Hammer (“Showbiz Tonight”) are HLN talent; Champion is the weather guy for “Good Morning America.”

Scheduled presenters include Rachael Ray, Kathy Griffin and the co-hosts of “The View.”

Also expected to present statuettes are the co-hosts of “The Talk” on CBS (Aisha Tyler, Julie Chen, Sharon Osbourne, Sheryl Underwood and Sara Gilbert).

Wayne Brady, who hosts the syndicated version of “Let’s Make a Deal,” will present a special award to the show’s former host, Monty Hall — while Betty White will present a Lifetime Achievement Award to producer Bob Stewart.

The telecast will air live from The Beverly Hilton hotel in LA.
