Emmys 2019: Fans left shocked and disappointed as they mark awards show as worst ever

Fans were not happy about how the Emmy awards took place this year and expressed their disappointment over social media.

The Primetime Emmy Awards 2019 was a star-studded event that honored many of the TV shows that ended in 2019. While the Emmy awards decided to make some changes in their presenting style, people were not happy with how the award show was conducted. Many took to social media to express their disappointment about the show and noted that this year Emmys was the worst ever. One of the main concerns was the Emmy choosing to have a commentator after every award presented. 

Phoebe Waller-Bridge (speaking) and fellow cast and crew members of 'Fleabag' accept the Outstanding Comedy Series award onstage during the 71st Emmy Awards at Microsoft Theater on September 22, 2019 in Los Angeles, California.

"Worst Emmys ever. The ‘announcer’ says stupid shit. #Emmys2019" noted one user.  Another added, "This is worst #Emmys2019 I have ever seen, who thought it was a good idea to do silly commentary when the winners are going to stage, just horrible." Others pointed out how the music chosen to be played throughout the show was not appealing at all. 

"This show is really a mess. The music is jarringly inappropriate, Thomas Lennon's comments are inane and the lack of a host is keenly felt. But worst of all was Jenny McCarthy on the red carpet. #Emmys2019 #Emmys," one user noted. 

Cast and crew of 'Game of Thrones' accept the Outstanding Drama Series award onstage during the 71st Emmy Awards at Microsoft Theater on September 22, 2019 in Los Angeles, California.

Another user echoed similar thoughts stating that the music did not compliment the show. "That was the single worst musical moment ever on an awards show. One for the history books. Holy hell that was painful. Congrats, #Emmys2019," read the comment. 

Meanwhile, others were surprised about how bad the award show was as this comment read, "#Emmys2019 So far the ABSOLUTE WORST AND MOST UNFUNNY OF ALL EMMY AWARDS SHOWS!!! LEAVE IT TO @FOXTVFOR TOTALLY MESSING IT UP!!!". Another user noted, "I've watched a lot of #Emmys and a lot of #badEmmys and #Emmys2019 is so far the worst. Really unfunny and lame broadcast."
