The 32nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards were held Sunday, September 7, 1980 at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium. The awards show was hosted by Steve Allen and Dick Clark.
The ceremony was held during a Screen Actors Guild strike. In a show of support for their union, 51 of the 52 nominated performers boycotted the event.[1] Powers Boothe was the only one of the 52 nominated actors to attend: "This is either the most courageous moment of my career or the stupidest" he quipped during his acceptance speech.
