Don Mischer Productions will return to produce the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards this fall.

Emmy Award-winning producer Don Mischer and partners Charlie Haykel and Juliane Hare were named as the producers of the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards on Friday.

The Emmys return to a Sunday night broadcast this year, airing live on Fox on Sept. 20 at 8 p.m. ET from the Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE in Los Angeles.

“Saturday Night Live” alum and “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” actor Andy Samberg is set to host.

“It’s been a great year in television,” Don Mischer said in a statement. “Celebrating the best of the season is a thrill for us, and having the talented and hilarious Andy Samberg on board as host will make for a can’t-miss celebration.”

Nominations for the Emmys will be announced the morning of Thursday, July 16.

The Mischer team has produced events ranging from “We Are One: The Obama Inaugural Celebration at the Lincoln Memorial,” the “Primetime Emmy Awards” and the “Academy Awards” to Super Bowl halftime shows (Prince, the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney and Bruce Springsteen), the “Billboard Music Awards” and the Opening Ceremonies of both the Winter and Summer Olympic Games.

Mischer has been honored with 15 Emmy Awards, a record 10 Directors Guild of America Awards for Outstanding Directorial Achievement, two NAACP Image Awards, a Peabody Award for excellence in broadcasting, Europe’s prestigious Gold Rose of Montreux and the 2012 Norman Lear Achievement Award in Television from the Producers Guild of America. This marks the 13th time that Don Mischer Productions will be helming the Emmy telecast.
