TV Emmy Awards May Take
Place Nov. 4

CBS and the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences are
expected to announce at a news conference Wednesday that the
twice-postponed 53rd annual Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony will
be held Nov. 4 at the Shubert Theatre in Century City. That date
could pit the Emmys up against a seventh baseball World Series
game (to be broadcast on Fox), should the series run that long.
The Emmys, first scheduled for Sept. 16 and then Oct. 7, were
canceled both times in light of world events. (The ceremony
originally was to have been held at the 6,000-plus seat Shrine
Auditorium near downtown Los Angeles. The Shubert holds only 1,800
people.) Gary Smith, a veteran producer of awards shows and other
live events, has been enlisted to serve as executive producer,
says the Hollywood Reporter. He is replacing Don Mischer, who had
to bow out because of a commitment to produce the opening and
closing ceremonies of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.
Ellen DeGeneres is still expected to remain as host. This year,
as last, NBC's White House series "The West Wing" is
going head-to-head with HBO Mafia program "The Sopranos"
for top drama. "Sopranos," about a New Jersey Mafia
family led by tough but vulnerable Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini),
grabbed the most nominations with 22, compared with 18 for "West
Wing," which portrays the inner workings of a fictional
White House run by President Josiah Bartlet (Martin Sheen).
