Emmys 2024 ceremony had us screaming, “Bartlet for America!” “The West Wing” stars Martin Sheen, Allison Janney, Dulé Hill, Richard Schiff, Janel Moloney took the Emmys stage to present the award for outstanding drama series.
The cast began the segment huddle around the famed Resolute desk in a recreation of the Oval Office before celebrating the show’s 25th anniversary.
The beloved and critically acclaimed NBC series, created by legendary scribe Aaron Sorkin, ran from September 22, 1999 to May 14, 2006.The cast joked about how Sorkin and his fellow writers on the show had to “actually use their imagination” to come up with plot lines as opposed to today when, as Schiff put it, “storylines can be plucked right off the news.”The cast added that while much has shifted in the political landscape over the past 25 years, two things have not: the important of registering to vote and the quality of drama series on television.
The award for outstanding drama series went to “Shogun.”A “West Wing” cast reunion had been anticipated before the Emmys telecast since the actors had all been announced as either participants or presenters.Emmys 2024 producers Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay also signaled that viewers could expect to see actors reprise their roles from the popular TV shows from days past. “The response to January was incredible, and we felt like people really connected to the nostalgia,” Harmon told Variety on Thursday, referring to the other Emmys ceremony this year — 2023’s Emmys, which took place in January due to delays caused by the actors and writers’ strikes. “So, we wanted to figure out a way to bring that nostalgia to the show on Sunday without doing the exact same thing,” Harmon added.
