Neil Patrick Harris is one step closer to world domination today, or at the very least Award Show Domination, as Variety reports that he is close to signing a deal with CBS and the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences to host the 61st annual Emmys on Sept. 20.
Neil Patrick Harris is fresh off of his hosting gig at the Tonys, where he received rave reviews (you know you're good when you can get rave reviews for hosting something as boring as the Tonys) and he has also hostedthe TV Land Awards show and the Writers Guild Awards ceremony (which wasn't televised) this year, and last year he hosted the Creative Arts Emmy Awards.
Hosting this year's Emmy Awards could serve as a great ratings boost for his sitcom, How I Met Your Mother, where he plays ladies man and bro-code scholar Barney Stinson. Mother moves to a new Monday night timeslot on CBS and conveniently premieres on September 21, the night after the Emmys.
