“Schmemmy” Emmys no more.

Perennially victorious Comedy Central is throwing a first-of-its kind Creative Arts Emmys after-party this Saturday night, Aug. 16, in Hollywood.

The Primetime Emmys’ kid sister now has a hot channel that’s moving its traditional post-show party off of Emmy night itself, thereby launching a new Creative Arts Emmys’ย orbit.

The stars in this constellation slated to attend hail from the network’s star-titled shows (Amy Schumer, Jonah Ray, Kumail Nanjiani, and Chris Hardwick) and the comedy community at large (Cecily Strong, Zach Woods, Natasha Lyonne, Pete Holmes, Natasha Leggero, and Scott Aukerman amongst others).
