\n Five months into the coronavirus pandemic, and Television Academy voters already seem to be over the plethora of remotely produced content created during, and in response to, the new social<\/a>-distancing health and safety guidelines. Only one such program, Food Network\u2019s \u201cAmy Schumer Learns to Cook: Lunch Break and Pasta Night,\u201d scored a nomination at the 72nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think, ultimately, it was determined by human psychology: people wanted to watch something that was opposite of the darkness we\u2019re living in,\u201d says awards consultant Richard Licata of Licata & Co.<\/p>\n

\u201cAmy Schumer Learns to Cook,\u201d which features the titular comedian and her husband, chef Chris Fischer, preparing meals out of whatever they happ<\/a>en to have in their kitchen (or for which they can forage from their neighbors\u2019 gardens), broke into the unstructured reality program race this year. While not directly commenting on the progress (or lack thereof) of the American government to stop the spread of the virus, it was a show born of the moment that responded to the needs of its viewers. Although it leaned into its amateur setup and shooting style, it was shot with multiple cameras and edited together professionally to more closely resemble a quote-unquote regular production.<\/p>\n

Other notable projects to come out of the pandemic followed the visual style of video meetings instead, and were predominantly submitted into the variety special (pre-recorded) category. These included \u201cA Parks and Recreation Special,\u201d \u201cGraduate Together: America Honors the High School Class of 2020,\u201d \u201cThe Greatest #StayAtHome Videos,\u201d \u201cHome-fest: James Corden\u2019s Late Late Show Special,\u201d \u201ciHeart Living Room Concert for America\u201d and \u201cSaturday Night Seder.\u201d<\/p>\n

With so many people staying glued to the news<\/a>, notes Licata, voters may not have wanted to hear more about the pandemic from their entertainment. This resulted in the variety special (pre-recorded) category being dominated by Netflix specials including standup comedy shows from Dave Chappelle (\u201cSticks & Stones\u201d), Hannah Gadsby (\u201cDouglas\u201d) and Jerry Seinfeld (\u201c23 Hours to Kill\u201d), as well as \u201cJohn Mulaney & the Sack Lunch Bunch.\u201d The final nominee in that category was another from Chappelle: \u201cThe Kennedy Center Mark Twain Prize for American Humor\u201d from PBS.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
