More About the Television Academy Honors

The Television Academy Honors is not a new category of Primetime Emmy® Award; it continues to be separate and distinct from Emmy’s recognition of television excellence.

The purpose of Television Academy Honors is to recognize and celebrate programming that motivates, educates, inspires and changes lives.
