Our favorite father-son-duo of television has arrived to host TV’s biggest night.
Eugene and Dan Levy took walked the red carpet at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles tonight in coordinating, yet very different suit looks.
Dan wore a sharp black custom Loewe suit jacket and pants with a white silk blouse featuring a sculptural scarf neckline that seemed to float away. He capped off the look with black dress shoes and his signature thick black glasses.
His father took a more classic approach in a dark navy double-breasted suit, white shirt, and poppy blue tie. He, too, wore his signature round glasses.
The Levys’ appearance at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards comes four years after their sitcom Schitt’s Creek took home nine of the awards, including Outstanding Comedy Series, at the 2020 award show. Eugene came out the winner in the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series category, while Dan won the award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series.
“I also want to thank, once again, this young man who took our fish-out-of-water story about the Rose family and transformed it into a celebration of inclusivity, a castigation of homophobia, and a declaration of the power of love,” Eugene said of his son in their joint acceptance speech at the time.
Tonight’s ceremony comes just a few months after the 2023 award show, which was delayed due to the combined WGA and SAG-AFTRA writers’ strikes, which halted nearly all production in Hollywood for about five months.
Big shows nominated tonight include Abbott Elementary, with five nominations, and The Crown, with 18. But the front-runner is FX drama Shōgun, which received a whopping 25 nominations, followed closely by The Bear, which got 23 nods—setting a record for most nominations for a comedy series in a single year—and Only Murders in the Building, with 21 nods.
