The Creative Arts Emmys are like appetizers to the big meal of the upcoming Primetime Emmys next week, hosted by Kenan Thompson. While you’re filling up on bread and butter (and possibly sloppy steaks), some standout nominees include Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers, an Outstanding Television Movie nominee, and Below Deck Mediterranean, an Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program nominee. However, one nominee comedy fans were grateful didn’t coffin flop is Tim Robinson for Outstanding Actor in a Short Form Comedy Series for I Think You Should Leave. Who was he wearing, Dan Flashes and TC Tugger?

While the show won’t be televised in its entirety, there will be a highlights program next Saturday, just two days before the big event Monday, September 12. Highlights for Vulture include What We Do in the Shadows winning for its costumes, Euphoria’s Lexi winning a choreo Emmy for her play, and Chadwick Boseman’s posthumous Emmy for Marvel’s What If…?
