Post a Comment On This Article News INHD: No Emmys In HDTV The high-def network says it will not air the 'Live From the Red Carpet' show this Sunday. By Phillip Swann Washington, D.C. (August 23, 2006) -- INHD says it will not simulcast this Sunday's 'Live from the Red Carpet' Emmy Awards show produced by E! Entertainment. This will be the first time since 2003 that the High-Definition TV network will not offer the pre-awards show coverage. Live From the Red Carpet, which features interviews with TV celebrities before they enter the Los Angeles Shrine Auditorium, will still air in standard definition on E!. Ellen Cooper, a spokeswoman for INHD, said Wednesday that E! Entertainment decided not to air the pre-show in HDTV this year.  You won't catch Teri Hatcher's bulging veins this year in high-def. Sarah Goldstein, a spokeswoman for E!, said Thursday that the channel's HD awards coverage is decided on a "case by case basis." However, she said she could not explain why E! will not broadcast this year's Emmys pre-awards show in HD after having done so for three straight years. With the exit of INHD and E!, HDTV viewers will not be able to see coverage of the 2006 Emmys in high-def. NBC, which will broadcast the awards show at 8 p.m. ET, does not plan to show it in HDTV.
