YouTube series creators for ‘Hot Ones,’ ‘Good Mythical Morning,’ and ‘Challenge Accepted’ make their case for Emmy consideration

YouTube creators Sean Evans of Hot Ones, Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal from Good Mythical Morning, and Michelle Khare of Challenge Accepted are making their case for Emmy nominations.
The behemoth video-sharing platform — which, according to Nielsen, has also ranked among the top streamers — recently hosted its first FYC event in L.A at the Pacific Design Center and spotlighted some of its standout creators.
While Evans and his celebrity talk show featuring progressively spicier chicken wings have been nominated for Daytime Emmy Awards in the past, the longtime host now feels confident about competing with network talk shows for Primetime Emmy recognition.
“We're just so far beyond being an internet sideshow,” he told Gold Derby about the series, which, as part of First We Feast, has logged more than 4 billion views. “I feel privileged to be here. It's a thrill, but I'm not embarrassed or ashamed to say that we belong.
