Re: [TV orNotTV] Emmy Winners: Academy Prefers Thanks by Chyron

[Diner]

They tried that at the 2016 Oscars, and it didn't work. A scroll at the 
bottom said "Alicia Vikander would like to thank..." and a bunch of names - 
but she thanked them all verbally anyway. And she wasn't alone.

I would welcome moving the thanking of the winner’s various employees and
retainers to CC, but not the shortening of speeches themselves. While there
are occasional abuses, an Awards show is basically about the acceptance
speeches. If you are not wanting to feature those, then just announce the
Winners on Twitter.

I would like to see the evidence that suggests that ratings are down due to
the show going 15 min over. That pressure has always been coming from East
Coast affiliates.

[TV orNotTV] Emmy Winners: Academy Prefers Thanks by Chyron

[Mark Jeffries]

In the never-ending attempt to speed up the awards show a week from 
tomorrow night and get off by 11 p.m., the Television Academy is requesting 
that nominees submit their thank-you lists in advance to run as a lower 
third during their speech (350 characters maximum, can include telling the 
kids to go to bed) and if they do run over the 45 seconds, the producers 
are threatening to cut off the next winners early to stay on time:
