"For two Canadians who won our Emmys in a literal quarantine tent, the idea of being asked to host this year in an actual theatre was incentive enough," the pair said in a statement posted Friday to the Television Academy website.

The Canadian-shot sitcom centred on the formerly-wealthy Rose family.
