Ceremony information
In February 2023, the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (also known as the Television Academy) and broadcaster Fox announced the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards would be held on September 18, with the Creative Arts ceremonies on September 9 and 10.[19] This marked the second year in a row that the ceremony would fall on a Monday; while it was described as an "unusual" move, since only NBC typically aired the Emmys on Mondays since 2014 (due to NBC Sunday Night Football), it would prevent the broadcast from interfering with National Football League games.[20][21] The ceremony will be produced by Jesse Collins Entertainment, taking over for Done and Dusted and Hudlin Entertainment. Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon, and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay will serve as producers.[22] In honor of the Emmys' 75th anniversary, the statuettes for these ceremonies will feature the number 75 etched in the base.[23]
Due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike that began on May 2, 2023, the Television Academy allowed companies to cancel scheduled For Your Consideration events without penalty.[24] Members of the Writers Guild of America were also told to not attend promotional events while the strike is ongoing.[25] The 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike then began on July 14.[26] The Television Academy reportedly planned to postpone the ceremony should either strike continue into August (following the postponement of the 50th Daytime Emmy Awards, which was originally scheduled earlier for June 16). The last time the Primetime Emmys were delayed was in 2001 following the September 11 attacks.[27][28] The Television Academy first told vendors in late July that the ceremony would be delayed, though no official announcement was made at the time.[29] According to several reports, the Television Academy preferred a November makeup date, while Fox preferred a January date due to fall broadcast commitments.[30][31] On August 10, the ceremony was officially rescheduled for January 15, 2024.[1] The final round of voting still occurred in late August as scheduled.[32]
Category and rule changes
In June 2022, the Television Academy announced the elimination of the "hanging episode" rule for the 2023 ceremony. In previous years, episodes that aired after the May 31 eligibility deadline but before nominations voting began could be placed on a Television Academy platform for viewing. Following the rule change, all episodes must air for a national audience by May 31, or those episodes will be moved to the following ceremony; if the program does not air a new season in that following year, the episodes would be eligible for individual achievement awards only.[33][34]
Following a realignment between the Primetime Emmy Awards and Daytime Emmy Awards for the 2022 ceremonies, the Television Academy and the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences announced in August 2022 that game shows would move to the primetime ceremony. New categories include Outstanding Game Show and Outstanding Host for a Game Show. To accommodate the change, the eligibility window for game shows will span from January 1, 2022, to May 31, 2023. Additionally, to avoid confusion over where programs qualify, Outstanding Competition Program was renamed to Outstanding Reality Competition Program. Game shows featuring children as contestants are eligible for the Children's and Family Emmy Awards only.[35][36]
More rule changes were announced in December 2022. Most notably, the variety categories were rearranged, with Outstanding Variety Talk Series and Outstanding Variety Sketch Series becoming Outstanding Talk Series and Outstanding Scripted Variety Series. The first category covers programs focused on "unscripted interviews or panel discussions between a host/hosts and guest celebrities or personalities", while the second covers those that "consist of discrete scenes, musical numbers, monologues, comedy stand-ups, sketches, etc." The move was seen as an attempt to resolve the dwindling number of variety sketch series and to separate news-focused programs from more variety-focused talk shows; the existing categories were initially merged in late 2020 before being split again a few months later. Other changes included caps on nominations-round voting and changes to tracked categories.[37][38][39]
