As a writer, producer and performer, Will Ferrell has earned eight Primetime Emmy nominations over the course of his career thus far, but he still hasn’t won one. However, he may finally get his due next month at the Daytime Emmys, where he’s nominated not once, but twice for Best Special Class Writing, both for the “Cord and Tish” live specials he co-hosted with Molly Shannon.
Emcees Cord Hosenbeck (Ferrell) and Tish Cattigan (Shannon) parodied the live commentaries of major televised events. One of Ferrell’s nominations is for “The 2018 Rose Parade Hosted by Cord and Tish,” which streamed on Amazon and poked fun at the annual New Year’s Day event, where floats are required to be covered in organic materials like flowers, plants, vegetables and seeds. Ferrell is nominated for that alongside co-writers Jake Fogelnest and Andrew Steele, and they also received a Writers Guild Award...
