The official letter from the Television Academy said, “This year, it’s still going to be the TV industry’s biggest night out…but we’ll come to you!”

It continued, “We are assembling a top-notch team of technicians, producers and writers to work closely with Jimmy Kimmel and with you and your team, to make sure that we can film with you (and loved ones or whomever else you choose to be with) at your home, or another location of your choice.”
