Eugene Levy and Dan Levy Team Up to Host 2024 Emmy Awards: ‘Can’t Wait to Spend the Evening with You’ Read more……
The 2024 Emmy Awards will be full of Schitt this September when Eugene Levy and Dan Levy take the stage to host television’s top honors.
Emmy winners themselves for their roles on the beloved comedy series Schitt’s Creek, the two stars will be the first father-son duo ever to host the show, which will air live on ABC from the Peacock Theater at L.A. Live in Los Angeles on Sunday, Sept. 15.
Both Eugene, 77, and Dan, 41, have four Emmy Awards a piece. Eugene won two for SCTV Network 90 and two for Schitt’s Creek. Dan, meanwhile, took home all of his for Schitt’s Creek, as a writer, director, supporting actor and creator on the 2020 best comedy series.
Eugene’s Apple TV+ series, The Reluctant Traveler with Eugene Levy, is also up for two awards this year: outstanding hosted nonfiction series or special, and outstanding writing for a nonfiction program.
“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,” Eugene and Dan teased in statement on Friday, Aug. 16. “We’re thrilled to be able to raise a glass to this extraordinary season of television and can’t wait to spend the evening with you all.”
The Levys will follow in the footsteps of Anthony Anderson, who hosted the 2023 Emmy Awards. Those actually took place in January 2024, due to the Hollywood writers and actors strikes.
Nominations for the 76th annual primetime Emmys were announced back in July, with Shōgun and The Bear leading the pack for most nominations with 25 and 23 honors, respectively.
That puts The Bear in the record books as the most-nominated comedy series in Emmys history, a milestone previously held by 30 Rock after the NBC comedy snagged 22 nominations in 2009. And it makes Shōgun the first Japanese-language series ever to be nominated for outstanding drama series.
As Emmys’ reigning best comedy, The Bear will battle it out for the top prize alongside Abbott Elementary, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Hacks, Only Murders in the Building, Palm Royale, Reservation Dogs and What We Do in the Shadows.
Shōgun, meanwhile, is going up against The Crown, Fallout, The Gilded Age, The Morning Show, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Slow Horses and 3 Body Problem.
