The September Primetime Emmy Awards will not have a master of ceremonies, said Fox Entertainment CEO Charlie Collier on Wednesday. The decision was somewhat influenced by this year's Academy Awards, which went without an emcee for the first time since 1989. "The fact that the ratings on the Oscars were higher is because the show was shorter," Kimmel said. The 2019 Primetime Emmy Awards will be handed out September 22.
