Eugene & Dan Levy Will Co-Host Emmys
The Television Academy announced that Dane and Eugene Levy will co-host the Emmys this year. This makes for a very unique situation.
Why Is It Different
The Television Academy Chair said, “We are thrilled to welcome two generations of comedy genius to the Emmy’s stage as hosts.” The Levys said in their statement, “For two Canadians who won our Emmys in a literal quarantine tent, the idea of being asked to host this year in an actual theater was incentive enough. We’re thrilled to be able to raise a glass to this extraordinary season of television.” This is a first for a father and son.
The Hosts Are Big Winners
WFTV says the Levys cleaned up at the 2020 Emmys — the year the winners appeared remotely due to the pandemic — thanks to their hit series “Schitt’s Creek.” Eugene Levy won for outstanding comedy actor and Dan Levy won for best supporting comedy actor. Dan Levy also picked up wins for writing and directing, while both won the Outstanding Comedy Series trophy as executive producers.
When Is The Show
The Emmys ceremony will be on September 15th on ABC.
