Much like many press conferences and events from earlier this year, 2020’s Emmy ceremony went digital. Jimmy Kimmel was on hosting duty with many stars appearing via broadcasts from their own homes. The show celebrates the best of the best from the world of TV from the past year. There were plenty of surprise wins, such as the sweep of Schitt’s Creek.
