The '''Primetime Emmy Award''' is an American accolade bestowed by the [[Academy of Television Arts & Sciences]] in recognition of excellence in [[United States|American]] primetime [[television]] programming. First given in 1949, the award was originally referred to as simply the "[[Emmy Award]]sAwards" until the first Daytime Emmy Award ceremonies were held in the 1970s, and the word "primetime" was added to distinguish between the two.
 
The Primetime Emmys generally air in mid-September, on the Sunday before the official start of the fall television season. They are currently seen in rotation among the four major networks ([[CBS]], [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]], [[NBC]], and [[Fox Broadcasting Company|FoxFOX]]). Because of NBC's coverage of [[NBC Sunday Night Football|Sunday Night NFL Football]] beginning in September, when NBC has had the rotation in 2006, 2010, and the upcoming ceremony in 2014, the Emmys move to late August for those years only.

Ballots to select the nominations are sent to Academy members in June. For most categories, members from each of the branches vote to determine the nominees only in their respective categories. All members can however vote for nominations in the best program categories. The final voting to determine the winners is held in August, and is done by judging panels. In June, the Academy solicits volunteers among its active members to serve on these panels. All active members may serve on the program panels; otherwise they are restricted to those categories within their own branch.
