2007 Emmy Awards transcripts

The following are transcripts from the broadcast of the 2007 Daytime Emmy Awards, aired Saturday, June 16, 2007.
Presenting the "Outstanding Performer In A Children's Series" category were As the World Turns stars Terri Colombino (who plays Katie Peretti) and Austin Peck (who plays Brad Snyder). Peck walked out waving a video camera, which he claims his mother made him take with him. They present the nominees, which include Sesame Street Muppeteers Kevin Clash for Elmo and Caroll Spinney for his portrayal of Oscar the Grouch, as well as LeVar Burton for Reading Rainbow. LeVar is not shown in the audience, but both Clash and Spinney are present, holding their characters.
Colombino and Peck open the envelope, revealing a tie. The first winner is announced as being Clash, who accepts the award. After his speech, Spinney is announced as the second winner, and he says his thanks. Both Spinney and Clash are seen walking off stage together, with the presenters, as they go to commercials.

Elmo 	Hello, how are you?
Kevin Clash 	Oh man, oh man, oh man, oh man. I tell you, I started watching this show when I was ten years old, learned how to build puppets and I've been with Jim, and the Muppets for about, it's been about 25 years for me. I grew up watching this show, glued to it, my mom thought I'd go blind, trying to figure out how to build these things. I tell you it's been a wonderful, wonderful ride working with this wonderful wonderful show, I had great parents who really supported me, I have great friends like Michelle who's here tonight. I love living on the street, of Sesame Street.
