Emmys — 70th Emmys

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Wildly uneven jokes and watered-down patter between Colin Jost and Michael Che make the 70th Annual Emmy Awards feel like a particularly overlong episode of SNL.

Emily Nussbaum The New Yorker Other than these few bright spots, the Emmys were, if not the Bad Place, the Blah Place. Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Linda Holmes NPR Devoid of charisma and struggling to get the audience on their side, they plodded on, looking like two dads forced to emcee a school assembly where they didn't particularly want to be there, but someone had prevailed upon them to help out. Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Michael Schulman The New Yorker Nerd love probably wasn't the theme that this year's Emmys were going for, but, throughout the night, awkwardness provided some of the show's best moments. Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Kristi Turnquist Oregonian Some surprise winners, overdue recognition for one of TV's best series and an impromptu marriage proposal helped add a little zip to an otherwise low-energy 2018 Emmy Awards show. Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Proma Khosla Mashable Perhaps it was the lack of visuals, but Che and Jost lacked the pace and sharpness of their weekly political commentary. Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba After the monologue, the Emmys mostly stashed Chost backstage, which was probably for the best. There was no life in their performance - they were like two Francos without a Hathaway. They were the hosting equivalent of making out with a fish. Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
