Who Is Hosting the Emmys in 2024?
As previously reported, Eugene and Dan Levy will host the 2024 Emmys. The Levys famously created and starred in the comedy series Schitt’s Creek, which cleaned up at the 2020 Primetime Emmys, taking home nine trophies. In addition to the show being named Outstanding Comedy Series, Eugene and Dan also won Outstanding Lead and Supporting Actor, respectively. Eugene had previously won two Emmys for his writing on the Canadian sketch comedy SCTV Network in 1982 and 1983. This year, the senior Levy’s Apple TV+ reality series The Reluctant Traveler With Eugene Levy was up for two Creative Arts Emmys (for Outstanding Hosted Nonfiction Series or Special, and Outstanding Writing for a Nonfiction Program).
