into three different events this year; the first one, which focused on key soap opera, game show and talk show categories, aired as a remote telecast on CBS last month, hosted by the stars of “The Talk.”“The nominees are all going to be connected live, and all live from their homes or wherever they’re isolating, and our accountants are sending the sealed envelopes directly to the homes of our live presenters.
NATAS also announced that the 41st Sports Emmy Awards will livestream on Tuesday, Aug. 11, at 8 p.m. ET. The 41st News & Documentary Emmy Awards will stream in mid-to-late September, followed by the 71st Technology & Engineering Emmy Awards in mid-to-late October. This is part of a shakeup caused by the ongoing COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. The 71st Technology & Engineering Emmys were originally slated for April 19 at the NAB Show in Las Vegas, while the 41st Sports Emmys had been scheduled for April 28 in New York. The three Daytime Emmy shows were originally scheduled to take place in Pasadena, Calif., from June 12 to 14.
Meanwhile, NATAS will also produce two dedicated specials in the fall: one recognizing lifetime achievement honorees in daytime, sports, news & documentary and technology & engineering programming, and the other recognizing Spanish-language nominees across the genres. “We have 10 events this year that we are producing under COVID conditions for the first time,” Sharp said. “That’s a lot of room for us to iterate and experiment. So we’re swinging the pendulum the other way this time to really see how it goes. And over the course of the year, these other ceremonies that are coming up, we’ll be able to hone in on what really works best in this new environment. All events will be viewable on desktop, mobile, and smart TV platforms via TheEmmys.tv.
