Conan “Really Likes Television” -- So He’ll Host Emmy Awards

May 22, 2006

The late-night redhead will be hosting this year’s Emmy Awards show, set for August 27. It won’t be O’Brien’s first trip to podium; he hosted the award-giving-gig in 2002.

Emmy co-producer Ken Ehrlich called O’Brien “a student of television. He’s funny and he really likes television. That bodes well for what we can do this year.”

Funny is good. And we can’t say we disagree that “liking television” is very important when choosing an Emmy host. Congratulations to Conan — and the geniuses who picked him.
