The Television Academy held the 75th Primetime Emmys exclusive press preview in Los Angeles.

Hosted by Anthony Anderson, the ceremony is making a grand return since it last aired in September 2022, skipping 2023 due to the SAG-AFTRA and Writers Guild of America strikes.

Anderson says he wants to “poke a little fun at somebody”, continuing; “sometimes an audience like this in a room like this can be uptight. Let’s just loosen our bow ties a little bit and just be here to celebrate one another and laugh at ourselves.”



Joking about not having to worry about the pressure of being nominated, Anderson said; “All the pressure is off of me now. I don’t have to sit there and wonder, am I going to win?”

The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards will take place at the Peacock Theater on 15 January, and will be broadcast live on FOX.
