No. By contract, they also have to give you an Emmy. Or so it often seems. "ToThaTsome lime after midnight Allen could be heard announcing from the podium, "For all you hostages in the audience now in -the third hour of your capture" and "Now as we enter the third day of our telethon, ladies and It was a tribute to something not very laudable that a non-show plagued with no-shows could be turned into a three-hour un-show.

As regularly as the Academy doles out Emmy awards, it valiantly attempts to remodel the ceremony and make it a more palatable, or at least tolerable, television program. This year, the Board of Gov All- the people who work in television and who reach a certain level of status and re nown, or just Income, expect to get some Emmy awards to show it for it, and an enormous number of them do. That's part of what the Academy of Television By JERRY BUCK AP Television Writer LOS ANGELES The actors are back in the fold, the writers have ended their strike, the directors have dropped their threatened boycott, so it's on with the Emmyt Awards show. The envelope, please! It's all glitter and glamour as television congratulates itself for the 33rd time in a show whose theme reflects the spirit of the day: The people who work in television comprise "one big happy family." CBS WILL CARRY the spectacle live from the stately Pasadena Civic Auditorium at 8 p.m. EDT Sunday, with a delayed broadcast for the West Coast.

It's supposed to run for ztt hours, but keep the popcorn warm because the Emmy-shows are notorious for running overtime. Edward Asner and Shirley MacLaine are co-hosts of the show honoring prime time television for the Academy of Television Arts Sciences. Asner, the star of CBS "Lou Grant," is a five-time Emmy winner and a nominee again this year. Miss MacLaine won an Emmy for her special "Gypsy in My Soul" in the 1975-76 season. The stars will be back at the Emmy ceremonies after last year's boycott because of the actors' strike.

Only one star DeVito, Marilu Henner and Tony Danza of John Ritter, Joyce DeWitt and Priscilla Barnes of "Three's Company," and Gary Coleman, Todd Bridges and Conrad Bain of "Diff rent Strokes." CBS, the host network, goes into the ceremonies with the most nominees. CBS has 104, NBC 92, ABC 79, the Public Broadcasting Service 32, and syndicated shows seven. "Hill Street Blues," the critically acclaimed NBC police drama, goes in with 21 nominations. It's believed to be the most ever for a regular series. Other shows with multiple nominations are the NBC miniseries "Shogun." with 14, and the ABC miniseries "Masada" and CBS' "Lou Grant" with 13 each.

The academy will pay tribute to Lucille Ball's 30 years in television. "I Love Lucy" made its debut on CBS on Oct 15, 1951, starring Miss Ball, her then-husband Desl Arnai, William Frawley and Vivian Vance. Lawrence Welk will receive special recognition during the broadcast with a special bubble machine constructed just for the occasion. The nominees in major categories include: Outstanding comedy series "Barney Miller," "Soap," and "Taxi," all ABC, and "M-A-S-H" and "WKRP in Cincinnati," both CBS. Outstanding drama series "Dallas," "Lou Grant" and "The White Shadow," all CBS, and "Hill Street Blues" and "Quincy." both NBC.

Outstanding lead actor in a comedy series Alan Alda, "M-A-S-H," CBS, and Judd Hirsch, "Taxi," Hal Linden, "Barney Miller," Richard Mulligan, "Soap," and John Ritter, "Three's Company," all ABC. Arts and Sciences is SHALES there for. To make sure everybody gets at least one Emmy, so that they can be known as "the Emmy-winning" so-and-so. Then a network can advertise a program saying, "And now the Emmy-winning star in an Emmy-winning story by an Emmy-winning director who is paying child support to an Emmy-winning actress who ran off with her Emmy-winning costume designer." This year CBS is the Emmy-winning network, its number having come up as host for the Emmy telecast, scheduled for Sunday night-from here to eternity. Last year, as you may recall, the 32nd annual Emmy Awards ceremony was boycotted by almost every actor in Hollywood as part of the actors' strike, and the only one who showed up to accept his trophy was puffy Powers Boothe, star of the sleazy and loathesome CBS movie on the Guyana tragedy.

AS A RESULT of Boothe's career indiscretion, there is one thing to be grateful to the Emmy Awards for: neither hide nor hair of Powers Boothe have been seen since. On television, anyway. ernors, surely at the risk oi life and limb, proposed reducing the number of awards handed out on the air. this of course was greeted in the "creative community" as warmly as if the government had outlawed hair weaving, face lifting and Per-rier. Sheepishly, and faced with threats of boycott from directors and writers, the Academy announced in July that it had reconsidered its revolutionary proposal and that the number of awards given on the air would be pushed back up.

One small step backward for Academy, one great leap backward for viewers. Certainly any individual who manages to do superior work in a medium like television, where mediocrity can earn one millions, should not be begrudged a big gold trinket and a public acknowl-' edgement of his or her excellence. But the Emmy Awards will remain a joke until the number of statuettes doled out is reduced to reasonable proportions and the Emmy telecast itself becomes a representation of the best that television can be and the best that television can do. It would also help, of course, if television in general were a lot better, and therefore more justifiable in giving itself prizes. This year, there are so few regularly scheduled drama shows on TV than every one of them was nominated as Best Dramatic Series.

That says more about the state of television than all the Emmy Awards put together and melted down, which may not be a bad idea. As it is now, with awards going to everyone but the valet parkers in front of the auditorium, the Emmy Awards unfortunately come off more as the Boob Tube Booby Prizes than as something to cheer about. 0 I showed up then to receive his award. In addition, this year writers strike has been settled, as was a threatened boycott by directors. Among the more than 40 celebrities presenting awards are Imogene Coca and Sid Caesar, who starred in television's early days; Mike Farrell, Jamie Farr and Loretta Swit of Danny United Press International headlined an I advance story on the Emmy show last An Atmosphere You Will Really Enjoy year, "Due to Actors Strike, Emmy Awards May Be Very, Very Dull." Due to the actors' strike? What was the excuse the preceding 31 years? Steve Allen probably should -have, grabbed an Emmy last year for his splen with the actors boycotting and the show encumbered with such lackluster celeb presenters as NBC's A.
