Father-son duo Dan and Eugene Levy to host this year’s Emmy Awards
Global News
The Levys' hosting stint comes four years after 'Schitt's Creek' swept the comedy categories at the Emmys.
Eugene and Dan Levy are bringing their father-son comedy stylings to the Emmy Awards.
The Canadian stars and co-creators of Schitt’s Creek say they are thrilled to host the awards ceremony next month.
“For two Canadians who won our Emmys in a literal quarantine tent, the idea of being asked to host this year in an actual theatre was incentive enough,” the pair said in a statement posted Friday to the Television Academy website.
Emmy organizers say the Levys will be the first father-son duo to host the celebration of the best in television, which has been around for three-quarters of a century.
It’s also the first time since Howie Mandel in 2008 that a Canadian has hosted.
The Levys’ hosting stint comes four years after Schitt’s Creek swept the comedy categories at the Emmys, winning nine and setting a record for the most-ever wins for a comedy series in a single year. The Canadian-shot sitcom centred on the formerly-wealthy Rose family.
Eugene Levy is also nominated for an Emmy Award this year.
'Reason, cold, calculating, unimpassioned reason, must furnish all the materials for our future support and defence,' the Oscar-winning actor said.
