Organisers of Emmys 2022 have announced that the 74th Awards has been moved to September 12, 2022 and would air live on NBC.

Nominations for the best in TV will be announced July 12, the television academy and network said Wednesday.

The ceremony’s host, producers and other details will be announced later.

The Emmys will be held on a Monday, not the usual Sunday, because of “NBC Sunday Night Football.”

The Emmys rotate among the major broadcast networks, including Fox, although the awards themselves have increasingly gone to cable and, more recently, to streaming services as well.

The 2021 Emmys drew more than 7.4 million viewers, a turn-around after an all-time low viewership of just under 6.4 million in 2020.

Ratings for awards ceremonies generally have slipped over the years, the pandemic aside.
