“You’re usually working with all new stuff you wrote that week whereas with ‘Barry’ we’ve had time to think and talk and hone things for months. “It’s such a ticking clock on ‘SNL,’ you have to be your best self,” he says. The hosting recognition is one of five nominations for Hader, who was also nominated for writing, directing, producing and starring in HBO’s “Barry.” Hader, who was previously nommed for hosting in 2015 and in 20 as supporting actor when he was a cast member, says that for him, hosting is a completely different animal.
“It’s a really great training ground for performing and writing so it doesn’t surprise me people get recognized and then go on to continue great work.” “I noticed this year it’s a lot of ‘SNL’ alum and so many amazing women,” Shannon says.
Also worth noting: former “SNL” players Molly Shannon and Maya Rudolph were singled out for their work on “Will & Grace” and “The Good Place,” respectively. This year sees a small drop from last year, when five of the 12 nominees were “SNL” hosts, but still yields four nominees: Tiffany Haddish, Tina Fey, Bill Hader and Donald Glover were all recognized for their hosting duties. That includes last year’s winners Dave Chappelle and Melissa McCarthy, who won after three previous hosting noms.
The Emmy nominations offered a few surprises this year, but there’s one thing voters are consistent about: they love “ Saturday Night Live.” Since 2009, half of the Emmys awarded in the guest actor/actress comedy slots have gone to hosts of the popular sketch program.
