The Television Academy seeks to spread out a record 113 categories over three Emmy ceremonies
The Television Academy announced today the structure of their, count ’em, three Emmy ceremonies. As previously announced, the 68th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards will air on September 18 on ABC. That ceremony, however, only hosts a comparatively small number of categories. After all, there are a record 113 categories to deal with. Even the Creative Arts Emmy ceremonies are too big for a single night, thus the Television Academy split that into two nights – September 10 and 11. An edited down version will air September 17 on FXX.
So, what categories will be unveiled over the three nights? The Television Academy provided a handy list of categories separated by the three Emmy ceremonies. Take a look below and stay tuned to AwardsDaily TV for updates as awards are announced.
