Emmys 2017: Start time, live stream, and what to expect

The 69th annual Emmy Awards take place tonight at the Microsoft Theater in Los

Angeles, California. Stephen Colbert is hosting for the first time ever, but there’s a lot more to know than just the venue and the host (this isn’t a dinner party, and you don’t need to bring a dish). Read on for everything you need to know before tuning in tonight. WHAT ARE THE EMMYS? Hello! The Emmys, also known as the Primetime Emmy Awards, are held each year to recognize members of the TV industry. The first Emmy Awards ceremony took place in 1949, and it’s been going on ever since, to varying degrees of public and industry interest. WHEN ARE THE EMMYS? The Emmys will begin tonight, September 17th, at 8PM ET. (The pre-show red carpet coverage will begin much earlier than that: 4:30PM ET). The awards ceremony usually runs until about 11PM at a minimum, but I seem to recall slumping over on my couch after midnight for the past few years.                                                                                                        https://www.theverge.com/2017/9/17/16303604/emmys-2017-live-stream-how-to-watch-tv-awards
