After being postponed due to the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes, the 75th Emmy Awards will air on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Jan. 15 on Fox at 8 p.m. (ET/PT).

"Black-ish" and "We are Family" star Anthony Anderson will host the show for the first time. The three-hour, coast-to-coast live telecast will take place at the Peacock Theater at L.A. LIVE in downtown Los Angeles and will also be available to watch the next day on Hulu. TV's biggest night will honor the talented performers, writers, directors and craftspeople whose work has entertained, inspired and connected viewers across the globe throughout the past year.

"With our industry's recent challenges behind us, we can get back to what we love -- dressing up and honoring ourselves," said Anderson. "There's no better celebratory moment to bring the creative community together than the milestone 75th Emmy Awards.

"After Anthony hosted our upcoming show, We Are Family, we knew he'd be a natural fit for a star-studded, anticipatory night like the Emmys," said Allison Wallach, President of Unscripted Programming at FOX Entertainment. "Anthony's known for his humor, heart and spontaneity, so he's sure to give audiences in the theater and at home a night they'll never forget."

"Anthony is a multi-talented performer and a great friend to the Television Academy," said Academy Chair Frank Scherma. "We are thrilled that he is hosting what promises to be a rich celebration of the year's outstanding television, as well as 75 years of Emmys excellence!"

"We are truly looking forward to him hosting what is sure to be one of the most entertaining anniversary Emmy telecasts," said Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay for Jesse Collins Entertainment.
