You predict: Daytime Emmys

Experts polled by Gold Derby are split between "General Hospital" and "All My Children" when predicting what will win the Daytime Emmy for Best Drama Series. Which nominee do YOU think will prevail? Or can "Young and the Restless" or "Days of Our Lives" pull off an upset?

The 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards air Sunday night on FOX, hosted by Supporting Comedy Actress nominee Jane Lynch ("Glee"). Lynch teamed up with Adam Scott ("Parks and Recreation") to preview this year's ceremony in the nine-minute video below.

After Lynch's wry introduction, mention is made of nomination morning, when Melissa McCarthy (alongside "Fringe" star Joshua Jackson) discovered live on-camera that she reaped a Comedy Actress bid for her new show "Mike & Molly."

Scott then introduces the four major genres to be showcased on the kudocast -- Drama, Comedy, Movie/Miniseries and Reality -- and screens highlights and clips from all the nominated shows and performers.
