Emmy Awards hosts Dan & Eugene Levy have the gays in a father-versus-son thirst dilemma
The Emmys are tonight and social media users are feeling all kinds of things about the father-son hosts.
Four years after Schitt’s Creek cleaned up at the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards, stars Dan and Eugene Levy are back to host the 76th edition of TV’s biggest night. And everyone who thirsts for either son or father is clearing their Sunday night plans.
The hosting gig is a celebratory moment for the two Levys—as is the social media adoration, we’d imagine—after years spent working their way to the top. Eugene got his start on the Canadian sketch series SCTV and became a scene-stealer in the Christopher Guest mockumentaries and the American Pie films.

Along the way, Eugene and wife Deborah Divine welcomed children Dan and Sarah (another Schitt’s Creek alum). Dan got his start as an MTV Canada host. And aside from co-creating and starring in Schitt’s Creek with his dad, Dan is famous for writing, directing, and starring in the 2023 film Good Grief.
In a recent Los Angeles Times profile, Dan and Eugene said they’re going for a “kinder, gentler approach” to hosting the Emmys. “It really comes down to wanting it to feel celebratory, not wanting it to be too hard but still wanting a bit of an edge,” Dan said. “People, from what I’ve been told, are kind of excited that we’re not hard-edged comics, that there will be a kind of warmth to the room.”
Meanwhile, social media users certainly feel warm about both father and son.
