Here are the nominations The Simpsons and King of the Hill gained:

Outstanding Music Direction: Alf Clausen for "Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala (Annoyed Grunt) cious". (As if no one predicted this.)

            Bette Midler: Diva Las Vegas
            Centennial Opening Games: Opening Ceremonies

With competition this stiff, I doubt Alf will get this award.
