Jimmy Kimmel to Return as Host for The Emmys

March 7, 2016

Now, we’ll just have to see if The Emmys will get any sort of controversy like The Oscars did and how Kimmel might handle it.

This September, Jimmy Kimmel will host The Primetime Emmy Awards for the second time and also “keep it in the family” at ABC is the current home of both Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Emmys.

Given the amount of awards given out at The Emmys and the growing amount of diversity on TV, an #EmmysSoWhite seems unlikely. However, six months leaves plenty of room for controversy, from any angle, to arise and potentially make for a very intriguing challenge for someone like Kimmel.

Seth Meyers shepherded The Emmys last year just fine, but Tina Fey and Amy Poehler have set a new standard for having fun in hosting awards show. Perhaps, knowing that, that’s why The Emmys have Andy Samberg set to oversee the evening’s ceremonies for 2015.

On Sept. 20th, The Emmys will air their telecast on Fox with Andy Samberg as the host. Given how Samberg like to play with the form of things like in his anti-roast at The Roast of James Franco, there should be plenty of bits and pranks through the whole show.

We can only wonder what his opening monologue will be like or if he will do an anti-monologue monologue.
