This hosting opportunity marks another collaboration with CBS for Bargatze.

The network is clearly a fan of Bargatze’s hilarious, approachable style, and his upcoming role at the Emmys should be a night to remember.

With six stand-up specials under his belt, his most recent, Your Friend, Nate Bargatze, debuted on Netflix. His earlier special, The Greatest Average American, even earned him a Grammy nomination for Best Comedy Album. He’s also made waves by hosting Saturday Night Live twice, most recently with a viral sketch in 2023 called “Washington’s Dream.”
With the Emmys just around the corner, fans are eagerly anticipating how Bargatze will bring his humor to the prestigious awards show. The nominations for the 2025 Emmy Awards will be announced on July 15, followed by the Creative Arts Emmy Awards on September 6-7.
Bargatze’s unique perspective and knack for comedy should add a refreshing vibe to the ceremony, ensuring the night is filled with laughs and memorable moments. Stay tuned for what will surely be a standout event this fall!
