Season 74 Review:
As telecasts go, we must acknowledge that this year’s show moved perhaps a tad too swiftly and offered plenty of laughs in the process. ... And if Thompson’s straight man routine helped buoy some moderately funny bits (Kumail Nanjiani bartending; modern dancers reinterpreting famous TV theme songs), it was Sam Jay’s voice and presence which helped set this year’s ceremony apart. The SNL writer helped keep things breezy, casual, and often outright hilarious.

Season 74 Review:
It is a confusing but often entertaining time to watch television. Appropriately, the 2022 Emmy Awards honoring all that television was also a confusing, often entertaining experience. ... The Emmys was a little too much too fast — the broadcast sailed through 25 categories last night, one more than we typically see at the Academy Awards, and still finished right on time at 11 p.m. ET. But within that flurry of activity, the Emmys captured some unexpected, truly sublime moments.

Season 74 Review:
Perhaps the affable Thompson, so reliable on “Saturday Night Live,” was talked into that awful opening, because he quickly returned to tell some jokes that successfully scored laughs. The remainder of the telecast was funny, entertaining and moved like a freight train.
