Hosted by comedian Nate Bargatze, the 77th Emmy Awards are being broadcast live from the Peacock Theater in L.A. and airing live on CBS.

The special show moments celebrating the anniversaries of some famous past and present television shows with re-creations of their iconic sets include:

• GILMORE GIRLS: 25th Anniversary set reveal with Alexis Bledel and Lauren Graham
• SURVIVOR: Jeff Probst 50th season moment
• GOLDEN GIRLS: Reba McEntire, Karen Fairchild and Kimberly Schlapman will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the show by singing the show’s theme song on a re-creation of its iconic kitchen set.

The broadcast will also honor additional milestones and feature an in memoriam performance:

• LAW AND ORDER 35th anniversary with key cast members Mariska Hargitay, Tony Goldwyn and Christopher Meloni joined by others from the many L&O franchises.
• GREY’S ANATOMY 20th anniversary with Eric Dane and Jesse Williams.
• IN MEMORIAM segment featuring a performance by GRAMMY Award-winning performer Lainey Wilson and Vince Gill of Gill’s “Go Rest High on That Mountain.”

Announced presenters include:

Elizabeth Banks, Ike Barinholtz, Angela Bassett, Jason Bateman, Kathy Bates, Kristen Bell, Alexis Bledel, Sterling K. Brown, Stephen Colbert, Jennifer Coolidge, Alan Cumming, Eric Dane, Colman Domingo, Tina Fey, Walton Goggins, Tony Goldwyn, Lauren Graham, Kathryn Hahn, Mariska Hargitay, Justin Hartley, Charlie Hunnam, Jude Law, James Marsden, Christopher Meloni, Leanne Morgan, Julianne Nicholson, Jenna Ortega, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Parker Posey, Jeff Probst, Phylicia Rashad, Hiroyuki Sanada, Anna Sawai, Michael Schur, Sydney Sweeney, Sofia Vergara, Jesse Williams, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Brad Garrett, Young Mazino, S. Epatha Merkerson, Hunter Schafer, Ray Romano and Ice T.

Stephen Colbert gets a standing ovation as he rightfully should. “While I have your attention, is anyone hiring?” In a perfect world, he would still have a job at CBS beyond May 2026.

Jude Law and Jason Bateman will soon be starring in Black Rabbit on Netflix.

Tramell Tillman made history by becoming the first Black actor to take home an Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.

Harrison Ford still does not have a competitive win at the Oscars or the Emmys.

With its wins tonight, The Studio now owns the record for most Emmy wins in its first season.

Michael Schur and Kristen Bell pay tribute to both Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen for receiving this year’s Bob Hope Humanitarian Award.

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert wins for Outstanding Talk Series for what turned out to be its penultimate season.
