Get ready to see some familiar faces on the podium. The 74th annual Primetime Emmy Awards, airing at 8 p.m. ET Monday on NBC, may have invited some newcomers to the party, but viewers can expect lots of repeat winners.
Host Kenan Thompson will do his best to keep audiences entertained but viewership has decreased steadily in recent years. The reason the Television Academy moved the event to Monday is so it doesn't have to compete with Sunday football.
However, an Emmy is still TV's most coveted award, especially now that the Golden Globes' image has been tarnished. And wins can still provide a boost to a show like "Abbott Elementary." one of the few network shows to get any attention. Still, the odds aren't in the freshman's favor.
