The Primetime Super Emmy Award was a set of 14 awards that were given in conjunction to the traditional Emmys at the 1974 ceremony. Winners of a traditional Emmy would then compete against their genre counterpart from the same category (comedy vs. drama for "Series". miniseries vs. telefilm for "Special"). This format would prove to be the Super Emmy's undoing. In order to vote on a Super Emmy winner, the traditional Emmy winners had to be announced well before the ceremony. Several members of the Television Academy were against implementing the new awards. Ironically, Super Emmy winners Alan Alda and Mary Tyler Moore were some of the loudest detractors. Both threatened to resign form the academy if they were installed. During their acceptance speeches, Moore said that comparing comedic and dramatic television was "apples to oranges". Alda went one step further in his speech "it's comparing apples to oranges to Volkswagens."〔O'Neil, Thomas. "1973-74. A Super S *M *A *S *H Night."
