The 75th Emmy Awards are set to celebrate a milestone in television history and honor the best shows and performances in the industry. Hosted by Anthony Anderson, star of the hit show 'black-ish,' the ceremony is taking place at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles. The Emmys, unlike the Golden Globes, focus solely on television and have planned special cast reunions and recreations to pay tribute to iconic shows like 'The Sopranos,' 'Cheers,' and 'Martin.'
For those wondering when and how to catch the Emmys, the show is scheduled to start at 8 p.m. Eastern and will be aired live on Fox. Viewers with an antenna, as well as those with cable and satellite providers, can tune in to enjoy the event. Additionally, the Emmys can be streamed live on various platforms that include Fox in their lineup, such as Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, and FuboTV. For those who miss the live broadcast, the show will be available for streaming on Hulu on Tuesday.
It's worth noting that before the main ceremony on Sunday, dozens of Emmy Awards are already given out in a special presentation of the Creative Arts Emmys. This year, it aired on Saturday night on FXX and will be available on Hulu on Sunday. A notable winner at the Creative Arts Emmys was 'The Last of Us,' the dystopian video-game adaptation, which secured eight awards, including best guest actor and actress in a drama for remarkable one-episode performances by Nick Offerman and Storm Reid. The show also dominated in technical categories such as visual effects and prosthetic makeup.
Viewers outside of the United States can also join in on the Emmys excitement as the show is broadcast in many countries. The Television Academy website provides a helpful list of international broadcasters and their air times, which can be accessed at emmys.com/watch.
Aside from the ceremony itself, the red carpet is always a highlight of award shows. For the Emmys, E! will kick off their coverage with 'Live from E!' starting at 5 p.m. Eastern, followed by an after-party show at 11 p.m. People and Entertainment Weekly are also hosting a red carpet show that will be streamed on their websites and YouTube pages.
As expected, when the nominations were announced in July, HBO shows dominated the list. The top three nominees were 'Succession' with 27 nominations, 'The Last of Us' with 24 nominations, and 'The White Lotus' with 23 nominations, all hailing from the beloved cable channel. 'The White Lotus' particularly stood out with five nominees in the supporting actress category, including Jennifer Coolidge and Aubrey Plaza. Another noteworthy mention is 'The Bear,' which is nominated in comedy categories despite its heavy drama. The show already won four Emmys at the Creative Arts ceremonies and has a total of 13 nominations. 'Ted Lasso,' another comedy favorite, earned two wins and led the comedy genre with 21 overall nominations for its final season.
The Emmys promise to be an exciting night of celebration and recognition in the world of television. To view the full list of nominees and to stay updated on this year's Emmy Awards, visit apnews.com/hub/emmy-awards.
