EMMY INSIDER

A MOMENT OF SILENCE, PLEASE,

for the hopes and dreams of any-

one who still aspires to host the

Emmys or the Oscars. With the

announcement in August that

Fox’s Emmy broadcast (Sept. 22)

will be hostless—a decision that

follows the enjoyably host-free

Oscars in February—it seems the

time for betuxed comedians

shepherding these awards cere-

monies has come to an end.
