The 72nd annual Primetime Emmy Awards aired live from Los Angeles — and many other locations — on Sunday night.
And it’s safe to say this ceremony was quite different frrom the previous 71 editions.
Yes, the very best in television were honored and, yes, Jimmy Kimmel once again served as host.
In the middle of a pandemic, however, Kimmel emceed his portion of the evening from the Staples Center in downtown L.A., while recipients and presenters were spread across the nation, coming straight to us from the comfort of their living rooms.
Some were even handed their trophies by people in hazmat suits.
Hey, you can’t be too safe, right?
