Jimmy Kimmel will host the 2020 Emmys

Image As you know, the rights to show the Prime Time Emmy Awards are distributed among the four largest US television networks. This year the ABC channel will broadcast the main event in the life of the world TV, having relied on the time-tested presenter.

Guests at the 2020 Emmys will be entertained by ABC star Jimmy Kimmel, who already hosted the event in 2012 and 2016. This time, he will not only hold the ceremony, but will also be engaged in producing it. The showman's previous performance can hardly be called successful: the 2016 ceremony showed the worst rating at that time and collected 9.7 million viewers from the screens. Since then, the Emmy audience has been going downhill. Last year's meeting of TV stars did without a host and gained only 6.9 million viewers.

The news of Kimmel's appointment indicates that Television Academy will not cancel Primetime Emmy due to the coronavirus pandemic. Another thing is that the California authorities may not allow the assembly of a full hall of Microsoft Theater even if the epidemiological situation improves. Either the organizers of the evening will reduce the number of invited guests, or even send the Emmy online. Earlier it became known that the Academy will hold a remote Creative Arts ceremony, which will precede the distribution of awards in the main categories.
