Doris Bowman helped the ceremony end at 11 p.m.
ET on the dot, producers say.
But this year’s Emmys actually did end exactly on time, at 11 p.m.

Bowman apparently made an impact.
I think [she was] very sweet and playful about it, Collins toldVariety.
I thought the speeches were amazing throughout the night.
Really just emotional and spot on and concise.
And that helped us keep pace with the show.

Bowman only had to step in twice.
But Anderson himself was also a big help, according to producers.
“We just kept churning,” Collins toldVariety.
“It was like, OK, Anthony.
Were going to add two lines here and then were just take two lines away here.
Anthony was a great accordion to help us just land the plane.
But despite all these efforts, the 2023 Emmys stillhit a record low in the ratings.
