The virtual 72nd Emmy Awards are unlike any other.
The 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards are unlike any other. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, nearly all of the would-be presenters, guests, and nominees have been forced to rely on remote camera setups to capture reaction shots and award speeches on the fly. Does that all sound like a mess begging to happen? You bet! But the show must, apparently, go on.
Host Jimmy Kimmel is leading the virtual edition of the show, which celebrates the best in television from the last year. Nominees like Schitt’s Creek, Succession, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Watchmen are all vying for a hefty pile of trophies, and with recent winners like Game of Thrones and Fleabag no longer on the air, the biggest races are a bit more unpredictable than usual.
Below is the complete list of winners at the 2020 Emmys.
