Emmys 2024 ceremony on Sunday night.Murphy, 37, came on stage to join Eugene, 77, and Dan, 41, for a hilarious bit.“They said the shining star of ‘Schitt’s Creek’ was going to present the final award of the night,” she said.“There’s been a little confusion, Annie,” Eugene said, as Murphy jokingly told the Levys to move over so she could have her moment in the spotlight.
Dan then broke the news to Murphy that O’Hara, 70, would be presenting the award for Outstanding Comedy Series, which went to “Hacks.”Afterwards, the foursome stood on stage together to close out the show.Sadly, “Schitt’s Creek: The Movie” was not announced at the Emmys 2024 as fans were hoping.
The 76th Primetime Emmy Awards stage was a fitting place for the “Schitt’s Creek” reunion. The show set an Emmys record in 2020 when it won seven primetime Emmy awards and nine Emmys in total, the most-ever for a comedy series in a single year at that time (“The Bear” broke that record at the last Emmys ceremony with 10 total wins).
The beloved comedy series’ 2020 wins included some of the Emmys’ most coveted prizes, including Outstanding Comedy Series, Lead Actor (Eugene Levy,) Lead Actress in a Comedy Series (Catherine O’Hara,) Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series (Annie Murphy,) and Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series (Dan Levy).“Schitt’s Creek” debuted on Canadian broadcaster CBC in 2015 and officially went off the air in April 2020 after six seasons.Emmys producers gave away the Levys’ surprise slightly in the lead-up to Sunday’s ceremony, revealing that the awards would emphasize nostalgia for fan-favorite TV characters. “You’re gonna get everything that you want from [Dan and Eugene Levy] in that opening,” producer Jesse Collins told Variety on Thursday..
