After the musical, Samberg presented his "not too edgy" monologue which was a perfect blend of cultural and political jokes that left the audience laughing their heads off. According to the RollingStone, he said, "I'm so honoured to join the proud ranks of Emmy hosts, incredible legendary people like... Robert Blake and Bill Cosby? Oh no, I need to get out of here."

Samberg told The Hollywood Reporter about his monologue that "You use your best judgment and screen jokes to see how people react. But in general, my preference is not to do 'hit' jokes. I like to keep it lighter." He also stated that "I'm working with Scott Aukerman and the writers from Comedy Bang! Bang! But I'm also asking funny friends who are writers for their pitches, too."
