The 2012 Primetime Emmys Nomination announcement will take place on Thursday, July 19 at 8:40 a.m. ET. Nick Offerman, of Parks and Recreation, and Kerry Washington, the lead on Scandal, will present the announcement. A live stream of the announcements will be available here.
Predictions for this year&apos;s list of nominees have already been circling the web, and with this year&apos;s shows spanning the spectrum from Girls to Downton Abbey this year&apos;s television did not disappoint. Hopefully the awards will not either.
Last year, a priceless TV moment was captured during the nominee announcements when Mike and Molly star Melissa McCarthey, who was also hosting the announcements, found out she was nominated live on-air. History might repeat itself with Offerman, who is announcing the nominees but is also a potential nominee.
The 2012 Emmy Awards will air live Sunday, September 23 on ABC. The ceremony will be hosted by Jimmy Kimmel.
