    NEW YORK (AP) --

    CBS' "The Young and the Restless" led the pack with 26 Daytime Emmy nominations announced Thursday, including best daytime drama.

    The 41st annual Daytime Emmys will be presented June 22 in Beverly Hills, California.

    "The Young and the Restless" will compete against CBS' "The Bold and the Beautiful" and NBC's "Days of Our Lives" for best soap, with The Online Network's "One Life to Live," which was resurrected online after being axed by ABC, as the final nominee.

    As Barbara Walters' retirement nears, the ABC legend learned she was nominated for best talk-show host at "The View." She's nominated with her team — Whoopi Goldberg, Jenny McCarthy and Sherri Shepherd — and will compete against Dr. Mehmet Oz, Katie Couric, Rachael Ray and "The Talk" team of Julie Chen, Sara Gilbert, Sharon Osbourne, Aisha Tyler and Sheryl Underwood.

    GSN's "The American Bible Challenge" earned a nomination for best game show, with host Jeff Foxworthy nominated for best host. The religion-themed game will compete against stalwarts "Jeopardy!" ''The Price Is Right," ''Wheel of Fortune" and "Let's Make a Deal," along with GSN's "The Chase."

    Things will be uniquely competitive among the men at "The Young and the Restless" over the next month. Four of the show's actors — Peter Bergman, Doug Davidson, Christian LeBlanc and Billy Miller — were nominated for best actor. The one outlier in the category is Jason Thompson of "General Hospital."

    Nominees for best actress in a daytime drama were: Eileen Davidson and Arianne Zucker of "Days of Our Lives" and Katherine Kelly Lang and Heather Tom of "The Bold and the Beautiful."

    "The Bold and the Beautiful" was second with 18 nominations, followed by "General Hospital" with 16, "Sesame Street" with 15 and "Days of Our Lives" with 14.

    CBS was the most-honored individual network with 61 nominations.




    Harvey Weinstein files legal claim alleging lack of medical care and hygiene at Rikers Island jail

    Harvey Weinstein's lawyers filed a legal claim Tuesday against New York City, alleging that he is receiving substandard medical treatment in unhygienic conditions while in custody at the notorious Rikers Island jail complex.

    The notice of claim, which is the first step in filing a lawsuit against the city, accuses the facility of failing to manage the former movie mogul's medical conditions, which include chronic myeloid leukemia and diabetes, and negligence ranging from "freezing" conditions to a lack of clean clothes.

    The city's law department and Department of Correction did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

    "When I last visited him, I found him with blood spatter on his prison garb, possibly from IV's, clothes that had not been washed for weeks, and he had not even been provided clean underwear – hardly sanitary conditions for someone with severe medical conditions," Weinstein's attorney, Imran H. Ansari, said in a statement, comparing the facility to a "gulag."

    Weinstein, 72, has been in city custody since earlier this year, after the New York Court of Appeals overturned his 2020 rape conviction in the state. The case is set to be retried in 2025. Weinstein has denied any wrongdoing.

    Weinstein was briefly hospitalized in April and again in July for health problems. His team has said he's been treated for diabetes, high blood pressure, spinal stenosis, COVID-19, and fluid on his heart and lungs.

    The legal claim, which seeks $5 million in damages, argues he'd been returned to Rikers each time before he had fully recovered.

    Weinstein's film production company went into bankruptcy proceedings after his convictions, setting up a $17 million fund for a sexual misconduct claims fund.
