The Writers Guild of America is doubling down on plans to cut the number of writing awards given out on the main Emmys telecast.
The guild has urged writers to “express your feelings” about the “regrettable” decision to remove the Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series/Special from the main primetime awards.
In a memo to members, the WGA said that the Television Academy made the decision “without any justification or defensible reason”.
It comes after the Emmys unveiled the category breakdown earlier this month. Later that day, the WGA told Deadline that the decision to reduce the number of writing categories on the main telecast from four to three was “misguided given the essential role writers play in the creative process of variety series and generating value for this industry”.
The move means that Outstanding Variety Special (Live) will return to the live telecast as Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special and Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series, which have been alternating for a spot, will both be given out at the Creative Arts Emmys.
One of the WGA’s arguments is that it adversely impacts writers on the late-night shows, which were the first to get back up and running after the end of the writers strike.
The shows nominated in the Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series category are The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Last Week Tonight, Late Night with Seth Meyers, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and Saturday Night Live.
Perhaps the TV Academy has got bored of watching John Oliver’s writing team win again, having won seven years in a row.
The nominees for Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special include Carol Burnett: 90 Years of Laughter and Love, Chris Rock: Selective Outrage, John Mulaney: Baby J,
