Emmys Producers Tease ‘Martin,’ ‘Ally McBeal’ Reunions and a Big Anthony Anderson Opening Number (EXCLUSIVE)
Producers Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay tease what to expect with Monday's Emmys, including 'Martin' and 'Ally McBeal' reunions.
To find the time, the producers have also come up with an innovative way to combat another staple of televised awards shows: When flummoxed winner climbs onstage and slowly recites a laundry list of thank-yous, leaving the audience squirming in their seats. “Mama Doris” is Anderson’s regular sidekick on his game shows, including ABC’s “To Tell the Truth” and Fox’s new “We Are Family.” On Emmy night, she has a new job: acceptance speech enforcer. It’s not lost on Collins, Harmon and Rouzan-Clay that this year’s Emmys falls on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day — and they note the historic fact that they are the first all-Black production team to helm the show.
