What to Know

Critics Consensus

Jimmy Kimmel reins in his trademark cheekiness for a conservative hosting performance that can't liven up a predictable ceremony devoid of spontaneity.

Tim Molloy TheWrap It was hideous. Television had a very good year, and this was not the show it deserved. Sep 17, 2019 Full Review Maureen Ryan HuffPost The mischievous quality that Kimmel and his team made the Emmys telecast much less of a chore than it could have been. It was even -- dare I say it -- fun at times. Sep 17, 2019 Full Review James Poniewozik TIME Magazine The Emmy broadcast itself was a pretty familiar and efficient affair, chugging along crisply and coming in on time, workmanlike if not really memorable. Sep 17, 2019 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette A first-rate affair. From some hilarious, surprising TV-themed sketches to clever, micro-movie introductions of writer/director nominees, the Emmys entertained consistently. Sep 17, 2019 Full Review Matt Roush TV Guide The Emmy Awards remains a stubborn lumbering elephant of a show, the least likely of its type ever to win an Emmy itself, often just lying there. Sep 17, 2019 Full Review Andy Greenwald Grantland The 64th Emmy Awards were a competent, serviceable affair. Cable may be ascendant, but the three-hour ceremony -- on the dot! -- was a tribute to old-fashioned network professionalism, eschewing innovation for slick proficiency.
