The 77th Emmy Awards celebrated the best in television with a unique twist on acceptance speeches, encouraging brevity for charity. Hosted by Nate Bargatze, the event honored standout performances and contributions in the industry.
Last night, the 77th Emmy Awards took center stage, showcasing the best in television during a live broadcast from the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles.
