Comedian Nate Bargatze is officially hosting the 2025 Emmy Awards! Yes, the guy who makes dad jokes cooler than actual dads is taking over Hollywood’s big night. We’re talking gowns, trophies, and a lot of chuckles that won’t get you grounded.

Nate, who’s basically America’s favorite laid-back uncle with a mic, is 46 years young and climbing the comedy ranks faster than your aunt climbs into a Facebook argument. With two SNL hosting gigs under his belt and Netflix specials that are funnier than your cousin’s wedding vows, Nate has mastered the art of making you laugh without needing a parental advisory warning.

In a statement, Nate said, “It’s a huge honor to be asked to host such an iconic awards show and I’m beyond excited to work with CBS to create a night that can be enjoyed by families around the world.” Translation: “I’m bringing jokes your grandma and your Gen Z niece can laugh at—at the same time. You’re welcome.”

The 77th Primetime Emmy Awards will air LIVE on Sunday, September 14, 2025 at 8pm ET on CBS, which means you’ve got just enough time to pretend you watched all the nominated shows. (We see you, Googling ‘What is Succession about?’)

And don’t panic if you haven’t memorized the nominees yet—the Emmy noms don’t drop until July 15, so your annual tradition of yelling “HOW DID THAT NOT GET NOMINATED?!” is safe for now.

Stay tuned, because Just Jared will be live-updating like it’s their Super Bowl, giving you every red carpet moment, every “oh no they didn’t!” acceptance speech, and every Nate Bargatze dad-joke in real time.

Mark your calendars. Polish your Emmy bingo cards. And get ready to laugh, cry, and yell at the screen—just like your favorite TV drama taught you.
