It can be dangerous on the road. Also, if you're not an Emmy viewer, you should strongly consider becoming one this year, because I'm hosting, and it's gonna be a wild ride. So buckle your seat belts."

Producers of the 67TH PRIMETIME EMMY AWARDS will be announced soon.

Nominations for the 67TH PRIMETIME EMMY AWARDS will be announced the morning of Thursday, July 16.
