What Are The Emmy Awards?

The Emmy Awards are the television industry's most prestigious honors — basically the Oscars of the small screen. Presented annually by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS), the Emmys celebrate outstanding achievements in TV across a wide range of categories, including drama, comedy, limited series, and more.

The name “Emmy” originates from the term "Immy," which was a nickname for the image orthicon camera tube — an important piece of technology used in the early days of television production. The spelling was eventually changed to “Emmy” to match the feminine look of the winged statuette — a muse of art holding an atom, symbolizing the marriage of art and science.

The Emmy Awards pay homage to the exquisite craftsmanship that goes into creating captivating stories for television. This star-studded event unites the leading minds and talents in television from Los Angeles, New York, and around the globe.

How To Watch the 77th Emmy Awards

If you missed the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards when they aired live on Sunday, September 14, 2025, at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT — or if you just want to relive all the glitz, glam, and laughs from host comedian Nate Bargatze — don’t worry! You can still stream the full ceremony on demand on Hulu.
