NPH Rolls Out Emmys Red Carpet, Previews Tributes

The second-most tweeted scripted show, and the most-tweeted comedy, is Glee, which inspired nearly 3 million tweets this past year.

While the musical series is up for another four nominations, they come on a somber note, as cast member Cory Monteith died at the age of 31 due to drug overdose before the show’s fifth season. Jane Lynch, who is nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress, will tribute her late co-star during the show’s in memoriam segment.

"We just wanted to honor specific people in a more unique way and not in a pander-y kind of way," Harris said of the scheduled tributes. "We thought that being able to speak about Cory’s death without seeming to be profiting from it in any way seemed really appropriate."
