From this year on ATAS will allow at home voting by viewing video cassettes. The Creative Arts Emmys are not affected by this rule change. Only the categories included in the Primetime Emmys - major acting, writing, directing and overall series awards - will be judged at home.

| | Awarded to: | | | - "The Teen Files" (1998) - Arnold Shapiro Productions
- "The Teen Files" aims to enlighten kids, parents, and educators about the important issues young adults face each day. Since its premiere in May 1998, the seven-part series has documented the responses of teenagers when shown the possible consequences of smoking, drinking, hatred and bigotry, sexual behavior, violence, and drug use. "The Teen Files'" vast outreach campaign is as important as the series itself. Months before each special airs, Arnold Shapiro Productions staff creates a campaign to make sure the series is seen by the people who can get the most from it. Since the program˙s inception, ASP has contacted and involved tens of thousands of teachers, principals, youth counselors, alternative schools, police officials, and non-profit organizations.
