Emmy Hosts Dan and Eugene Levy Roast ‘The Bear’ for Being a Comedy Nominee With No Jokes and More During Monologue


Father and son duo Eugene and Dan Levy emceed Sunday's Emmys, starting off with a joke-packed dual monologue.

Dan and Eugene Levy took the stage at the top of the Emmys on Sunday night to kick off the awards show on ABC with jokes galore, including a dig at “The Bear.” The opening segment of the 76th annual Emmy awards saw the duo (who mark the first-ever father and son to host TV’s biggest night) throw jabs at the FX on Hulu series: “‘The Bear’ is nominated for 23 Emmys tonight, making it the most nominated comedy in history,” Eugene Levy said. Under a year after shepherding the last Emmys ceremony, which was held in January due to strike-related delays, Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay have returned as executive producers for the awards show.
