The ceremony kicks off with Kate McKinnon and Keenan Thompson (both of SNL) taking the state, Kate is adorably nervous. They chat about this being the most diverse group of nominees in Emmys history. There's a song and dance, more nominees come out to join "We Solved It". Rickie Martin joins the group too, proclaiming the song "too white".  Oh, hi Andy Samberg.
