This year's Emmy Awards are going to be hosted by funny man Seth Meyers, who is also the host of The Late Night Show in his spare time. The production team has decided to put together their first promo video and release it less than a month before the 66th Annual Emmy Awards take place.

In the hilarious video, Seth Mayers plays himself while trying to get through airport security with a bunch of forbidden items, all of the connected with some of the most known series on TV today.

As the security guards begin pulling dangerous items out of his bag and Arch their eyebrows, Seth begins to explain to the TSA officers what each one is connected with. The guns are there because of “Homeland” and “True Detective,” but Seth can't make up which is which.

A bottle of whiskey is pulled out next and Seth simply nods his head and says “Mad Men.” A blue bag or meth needs no introduction, but the host is obliged to explain that it's connected to “Breaking Bad.”

The next objects come in quickly succession: a voodoo doll is for “American Horror Story,” a large cucumber is for “Top Chef,” and a huge sword is for everyone's favorite “Game of Thrones.”

The Emmy Awards 2014 are going to take place during a live event on August 25 at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles, California. It's going to be aired live coast-to-coast starting 8 P.M. on NBC.
