The 66th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards are a ceremony held to honor the best in U.S. prime time television programming from June 1, 2013 until May 31, 2014, as chosen by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. The ceremony will be held on Monday, August 25, 2014 at the Nokia Theatre in Downtown Los Angeles, California, and will be broadcast in the U.S. by NBC.[2] Comedian and Late Night host Seth Meyers will host the ceremony for the first time.[3]

The Primetime Emmys coincide with the 66th Creative Arts Awards ceremony, which was held the previous weekend on August 16.[1]

Scheduling of ceremony

The 66th Primetime Emmy ceremony will be held on a night other than Sunday for the first time since 1976 (the 28th Primetime Emmy Awards were also staged on a Monday that year, May 17).[2] A main factor playing into the unusual scheduling was NBC's commitment to Sunday Night Football; since acquiring the National Football League's Sunday night game package in 2006, NBC, when it is their turn in the four-network rotation to air the Primetime Emmys, usually schedules the ceremony for the Sunday before Labor Day weekend, to avoid conflicts with SNF in mid-September (when ABC, CBS, or Fox normally air the ceremony).[Note 1] NBC's ideal date on the 2014 calendar for the ceremony (August 24) found a roadblock in MTV's Video Music Awards, which were set for that night more than a year in advance[4] (and would be staged in the L.A. area as well, at The Forum in Inglewood). Rather than go head-to-head with the VMA's, NBC announced in January 2014 that the 66th Primetime Emmys would take place the following evening — Monday, August 25.[2] The move would allow NBC to commit to a preseason Sunday Night Football broadcast for the 24th (a game between the Cincinnati Bengals and Arizona Cardinals); it also ensured the tradition of staging the Primetime Emmys the weekend after the Creative Arts Emmy Awards (that ceremony was already set for August 16).[2]

The ceremony's weeknight date and start time — 5PM (PDT) in Los Angeles — led to concerns of rush hour traffic gridlock in Los Angeles' downtown core at the time of the ceremony; to help alleviate the concerns, the ATAS worked with Los Angeles city officials to map out street closures and red carpet staging areas, as well as include travel instructions (including which routes to take and where to park) in attendees' ticket packets.[5]

Changes in categories and balloting

The Academy of Television Arts and Sciences announced that it will implement online voting for its members to select the nominees. Winners for this year will still be voted on via paper ballots; online voting to determine the winners will not be used until 2015.[6]

The Academy has also announced changes to several awards and categories that affect both the Primetime and Creative Awards. Changes for the Primetime Awards will involve separating the Outstanding Miniseries or Movie category into two entities: Outstanding Miniseries and Outstanding Television Movie. The two were combined in 2011, due to a downtrend in the genres. This separation is only for the program category with all other awards in the category remaining combined between the two formats.[7] The Academy also introduced two new categories: Outstanding Structured Reality Program and Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program.[8][Note 2]

There is also an increase in the number of longform nominees in writing, directing and performing categories for miniseries/TV movie, from five to six nominees, as well as a change in their final voting procedures.[7] Additionally, a "2% rule" has been adopted in the comedy and drama series categories, wherein, a seventh nominee could be added to the respective categories if its total first-round votes are within 2% of the sixth place series.[7]
