Nate Bargatze's Emmy Hosting Night: A Flop and a Failed Joke
Originally Published 3 months ago — by SlashFilm

Nate Bargatze hosted the 2025 Emmys with a poorly received and controversial bit involving a donation counter and rushed speeches, which distracted from the celebration of winners and the event's overall joy. Despite his intentions to support charity, the segment was seen as awkward and unfunny, overshadowing heartfelt moments from winners like Hannah Einbinder, Cristin Milioti, and Noah Wyle. The ceremony was marred by uneven timing and unrestrained presenter speeches, but many winners still managed to shine and enjoy their moment.
