00:00 The Emmy Awards, originally scheduled to take place this year in September,
00:04 have faced a postponement due to the ongoing strike in Hollywood,
00:07 as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. The event was initially set for September 18,
00:12 but it now appears that it won't happen as planned. However, a new date will be
00:16 announced in due course. This marks the first time in two decades that Emmy Awards have been
00:21 scheduled. In 2001, the ceremony's dates were adjusted in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist
00:27 attacks, leading to its airing in early November of that year. Despite the postponement, phase 2
00:32 voting for the Emmy Awards is proceeding as originally planned. Members of the TV Academy
00:37 will cast their votes for the nominees, commencing on August 11. Nevertheless, uncertainty looms over
00:43 whether the 2023 Emmys will indeed be presented in the same year. The decision regarding the actual
00:50 timing of the 2023 Emmys is currently up in the air and has yet to be determined. The industry
00:56 is closely monitoring the developments related to the strike, and further announcements will
01:00 clarify the ceremony's rescheduled date and whether it remains within the same calendar year.
01:05 It is important to recognize the significance of such decisions and the impact they have
01:12 on the entertainment industry. Awards ceremonies like the Emmys celebrate excellence in television
01:17 and acknowledge the hard work and dedication of talented individuals in the field. Thus,
01:20 the rescheduling of the event reflects the complexities and challenges that the industry
01:26 faces during the ongoing strike.
