The 73rd annual Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony is tonight at 8PM ET (5PM PT), and streaming platforms like Apple TV Plus, Netflix and HBO Max are poised to win big. Cedric the Entertainer will host the show, which will be broadcast live from outside the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, to accommodate social distancing, which also means the audience will be limited to nominees and their guests.
Where DO I WATCH THE EMMYS?
This year, CBS will broadcast the Emmys, so you can watch on your local CBS affiliate. The show will also stream live on CBS’ Paramount Plus streaming app. You can sign up for a free trial of Paramount Plus to check it out if you’re not already a subscriber.
HOW DO I WATCH THE EMMYS ONLINE
There are plenty of options for watching the Emmys if you don’t have cable TV. You can watch in your internet browser, or through a streaming device (Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV, Roku) connected to your television using Hulu with Live TV, YouTube TV, or SlingTV. These are paid services but most offer a free trial period as well.
WHO IS NOMINATED FOR AN EMMY?
Netflix’s series about the British monarchy The Crown, and Disney Plus’ The Mandalorian each got 24 nominations, and Disney Plus’ Marvel show WandaVision received 23 noms. The Apple TV Plus comedy Ted Lasso got 20 nominations, and HBO’s (unfortunately canceled) Lovecraft Country received 18 nominations.
Some awards were handed out at last weekend’s Creative Arts Emmys. Vulture has that list of winners here.
