Check back throughout the day to see more reactions from this year’s nominees! 

“Playing Tim Laughlin was the experience of a lifetime, and I will carry him with me always. For this experience to be recognized in this way, and alongside Matt, my ultimate co-pilot, is truly a dream and an honor (alt: beyond my wildest dreams).

It is not lost on me that this sort of recognition is rare. I’ve grown up savouring the minimal queer television and film on offer whilst battling problematic media and societal criticism of queer life. I have loved so many celebrated dramatic performances of gay characters but for Matt and I to be nominated together as gay actors feels like the sort of progress that would have made the world an easier place to grow up in. For that I am grateful and so unbelievably proud. Thank you to the TV Academy for this opportunity.
I share this with Ron, Matt, Noah, Jelani, Allison, the entire Fellow Travelers family. And of course, with Tim and all the other angels who fought before us.”
–Jonathan Bailey, Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Fellow Travelers“It was such a nice surprise when I heard this morning. I didn’t know today was the day of the nominations. I was making coffee when Simon came in to tell me. I am incredibly grateful and thrilled that Jonny and Ron’s beautiful work was recognized as well. The fact that two out actors in a love story were recognized in this way is profoundly moving to me.”
–Matt Bomer, Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Fellow Travelers
“I’m honored to be included in this impressive group of writers/showrunners and grateful to my fellow executive producers, writers, directors, cast, designers, and crew for bringing what was on the page so brilliantly to life. And I’m thrilled the Academy has honored Matt Bomer and Jonathan Bailey who — with their enormous talent, commitment, and courage — created the epic and heartbreaking love story at the center of Fellow Travelers.”
–Ron Nyswaner, Outstanding Writing for a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Fellow Travelers“I am beyond surprised and thrilled with this lovely nomination. It’s an honor to share this category with the other truly gifted actors, and to be recognized alongside Kristen and the series. Thank you to the entire Palm Royale team and everyone at Apple TV+ for their support.”
–Carol Burnett, Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series nominee for Palm Royale

“We are overjoyed by the Television Academy’s recognition of PALM ROYALE in so many important categories. We are immensely grateful to our Apple TV+ family and honored to be included in such esteemed company with our fellow nominees.”
–Abe Sylvia, Laura Dern, and Jayme Lemons on behalf of Outstanding Comedy Series nominee, Palm Royale

“10s, 10s, 10s across the board. Thank you academy members for recognizing the love and hard work that our amazing cast and crew put into every episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race. And condragulations to our fellow nominees for making this a great year for television.”
–RuPaul Charles, Outstanding Reality Competition Program nominee and Outstanding Host For A Reality Or Competition Program nominee for RuPaul’s Drag Race

“I feel so lucky to have been asked to take part in bringing Tom Ripley to life in this new way. I worked with so many extraordinary people on this remarkable RIPLEY journey and I want to congratulate them and to thank our partners at Showtime and Netflix for their support. Being acknowledged alongside the extraordinary actors in this category makes this news all the more sweet. Grazie Mille!”
–Andrew Scott, Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Ripley

“Fuck yeah! I’m at a loss for words. Thank you to HBO for believing in this project and giving me the opportunity to be part of this amazing team. It has been the ultimate honor to work alongside the visionary Issa López and legendary Jodie Foster. Being only my third acting role, I never would have thought I’d have the opportunity to kick down doors alongside such talented humans like Lily Gladstone and D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai. As a proud Wampanoag-Cape Verdean two spirit woman of color, I am excited to see the progression of representation in this industry as we continue to tell our stories. Congratulations to all of the other nominees. Thank you to the Television Academy and I can’t wait to see you all soon!”
–Kali Reis, Outstanding Supporting Actress in Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for True Detective: Night Country

“I am truly surprised and honored to be nominated for this amazing show that keeps giving back to me.  Lessons In Chemistry is a story about a woman finding her strength through adversity. I feel like it is emblematic of my journey as a Black Female Director. I’m grateful to Lee Eisenberg, Brie Larson, Aggregate Film, and Apple TV+ for trusting me at the helm. Thank you to the Television Academy for acknowledging me for this particular work. Today was a very good day!”
–Millicent Shelton, Outstanding Directing For a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Lessons in Chemistry

“Turns out I’m not the Weakest Link! Honored to be nominated for Outstanding Host for A Game Show. I’m so grateful for my Weakest Link family and truly couldn’t be more appreciative for the Academy’s recognition.”
–Jane Lynch, Outstanding Host for A Game Show nominee for Weakest Link

“Being apart of the Only Murders family has been such a joy. I’m overwhelmed with gratitude to be nominated for my first Emmy for a project that is so close to my heart. Thank you to the entire cast and crew for making it such a memorable experience. ”
–Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series nominee for Only Murders in the Building

“It is always an honour to be noticed by the Television Academy, and it is especially rewarding when a new show is selected. Six Emmy nominations for The Gilded Age is more than I could have dreamed of, and I am absolutely thrilled. They have provided a public recognition of the wonderful work of our cast and crew, all of them stars in my eyes, and I am so grateful for that.”
–Julian Fellowes, Writer, Executive Producer, and Creator of Outstanding Drama Series nominee, The Gilded Age

“Today is especially gratifying because The Gilded Age returned to production last week for a season three that exists only because so many people watch and love the show, and I want to thank our champions at HBO for giving us another round. Congratulations to our queen, Christine and the entire cast; to Sean Flannigan and our hair department; Kasia Walicka-Maimone and her team in Costumes; Bob Shaw, our production designer and previous champ; and especially our astonishing New York crew, almost all of whom have returned to us after 18 months dark. Bertha is created by the one and only Julian Fellowes and the indispensable Sonja Warfield, but she wouldn’t exist without Nicki Ledermann (make-up), Christine Harlan (hair) and Amber Augone (dresser). And of course, I thank the incomparable Morgan Spector, my dearest, most painfully handsome friend, true feminist, joyful scene partner, and the love of my fake TV life.

It’s also a special day because my parents and one of my brothers and his family are visiting, and they did not have His & Hers Emmy nominations on their Westchester vacation bingo cards. Tracy and I will celebrate with a bland dinner palatable to small children and an early bedtime.”
–Carrie Coon, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series nominee for The Gilded Age

“I am proud to be part of a team that today received 9 Emmy Award nominations, including one for myself. Our entire Slow Horses family try every day to make a quality show, and while we are doing it, we never think of prizes—which makes it so very gratifying to see the work recognized in so many areas. Our cast, director, writer, composer and each department and creative area lavish such careful talent and attentiveness, that is it amazing to see it all come together and to have the response we have had. As for me, I have always loved the quality of things you can see on television, and yes, the cliché’s are true, I am humbled to be added to the impressive list of others nominated today and in past years.”
–Gary Oldman, Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series nominee for Slow Horses

“This just feels like a love letter from above. It’s my very first Emmy nomination as an actor and it’s especially thrilling to share this joy with our Night Country team. We couldn’t love and trust one another more, after holding on for dear life through the snow, finding our way in the dark. Being part of the True Detective family with Issa López as our fearless leader is the gift that keeps on giving.”
–Jodie Foster, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for True Detective: Night Country

“My sincerest thanks to the Television Academy for your support of Slow Horses – to be nominated alongside such esteemed talent is a true honour. I am so proud to be a part of an immeasurably brilliant cast and crew on this show; to see it being deservedly recognised in other categories too is the icing on the cake. Thank you!”
–Jack Lowden, Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series nominee for Slow Horses

“I thought the announcements were coming later this week, and I’m so glad I had it wrong because I wouldn’t have slept last night! I was at home and thinking about going for a swim when my assistant called to tell me this amazing news (he usually texts and just calls when something is wrong!). I squealed and immediately asked if Billy got nominated too. He did, which makes today even more special. I’m truly thrilled and beyond proud of this show, our incredible cast, especially our dearly missed Treat Williams, and grateful to the Television Academy for this acknowledgment and to the incomparable Ryan Murphy for his constant championing of women.”
–Naomi Watts, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Feud: Capote vs. The Swans 

“I’m still pinching myself over this huge honor. All those nominations, for so many people I grew to love so much. We all made Night Country for fun, and from our belief that other voices deserve their share of the screen. It was amazing that HBO gave me the chance to take this big swing, and that alone was all the joy in the world. But then we got this incredible recognition. As an immigrant filmmaker, to have my first venture in the English language receive such appreciation is a dream (a wild one!) come true.”
–Issa López, Outstanding Limited Series nominee, Outstanding Writing for a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee, and Outstanding Directing for a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for True Detective: Night Country

“What the…  Still in shock over here! I’m so happy for everyone that worked so hard on Palm Royale and SNL! And for all my fellow nominees!! Everyone at Apple, Lorne Michaels and the casts, writers, and crews!!!  I can’t believe this.”
–Kristen Wiig, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series nominee for Palm Royale

“I am so honored to be acknowledged by the Televsion Academy in this incredible group of women – thank you! The experience of making Ripley was life changing for me, and I’m so happy that it resonated with audiences the way that it has.  The show wouldn’t exist without the brilliance of Steve Zaillian and the magnificence of Andrew Scott, the best scene partner anyone could ask for.  Grazie Mille!”
–Dakota Fanning, Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Ripley

“I am so touched by this nomination. I wholeheartedly share the honor with the stellar cast of Under the Bridge, who brought such deep compassion and unmatched talent to telling Reena Virk’s story. Every beating heart on screen gave so much of themselves to honor her legacy, and I’d especially like to thank Vritika, Archie and Riley, I am so inspired by you all. Thank you to Quinn Shephard, Samir Mehta, Liz Tigelaar, Gina Gammell and Riley Keough for bringing this story to light and being champions of radical empathy. I’m forever grateful to have been brought along for the journey.”
–Lily Gladstone, Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Under the Bridge

“I am at a complete loss for words. This morning is such an emotional rollercoaster filled with tears of joy over this recognition of my work, and for my humanity as a trans Latina woman. Today is an affirmation of my existence and my journey as a working actor. It is a dream come true and I am so humbled and deeply grateful for this nomination. Most importantly, I am thankful to my peers for not only bestowing me with this nomination, but celebrating this groundbreaking moment for the Trans community at large.

I extend my endless gratitude and congratulations to Richard Gadd, Jessica Gunning, and my entire Baby Reindeer family. This has been the ride of a lifetime, and I am so deeply moved to be sharing this with all of you.

Mil gracias y mucho amor a mi familia en México y San Antonio!”
–Nava Mau, Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Baby Reindeer

“I’m thrilled to be nominated for Baby Reindeer. Everyone involved in the series was performing to the highest level and I’m delighted that the whole show and my part in it has been recognised.”
—Tom Goodman-Hill, Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Limited Or Anthology Series Or Movie nominee for Baby Reindeer

“Amazing news like a breath of cool air as I’m slogging through this blazing NYC heat to do my matinee of “N/A” — about a 17 block hustle. Lucky, lucky me!”
–Holland Taylor, Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series nominee for The Morning Show

“It warms my heart to see that misanthropy is finally being recognized as an art form.”
–Larry David, Outstanding Comedy Series nominee for Curb Your Enthusiasm

“This is a sad day for actors everywhere. See? Anyone can do it!”
–Larry David, Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series nominee for Curb Your Enthusiasm

“I couldn’t be happier and I am so incredibly proud of us! #EmmyNoms”
–Jean Smart, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series nominee for Hacks

“Wow. Griselda was my first dramatic role ever, and it took us 15 years to bring her to life. I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who was a part of this series. I could have never done this without my director Andres Baiz, my costar Alberto Guerra, Eric Newman and the full creative team, my partner and producer Luis Balaguer, Ted Sarandos, Bela Bajaria, and their team at Netflix, and all the amazing cast and crew. I never dreamed that after “Modern Family” I would be able to work on something as special as “Griselda.” I’m honored to be recognized alongside Jodie, Brie, Juno, and Naomi, incredible women who gave us incredible TV this year. Thank you to the Television Academy for this incredible honor!”
–Sofia Vergara, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Griselda

“I am very proud of the hard work and integrity of everyone involved in the making of The Crown.

It was a privilege to play him and it is a privilege to be nominated by my peers. Thank you.”
–Jonathan Pryce, Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series nominee for The Crown

And as always, I’m forever grateful to Lucia Aniello, Paul W. Downs and Jen Statsky for creating this beautiful character for me to play. BRB, choosing my D’Jewelry for Emmy night.”
–Kaitlin Olson, Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series nominee for Hacks

“Making Hacks with my loved ones is the most fulfilling creative experience of my life. I am deeply honored to share this nomination with every single cast and crew member who makes our show what it is! I am so humbled to be nominated alongside such powerful artists who I admire- I’m overflowing with gratitude and love!”
–Hannah Einbinder, Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series nominee for Hacks

“I am trying to find the words, but this thank you just feels so big. Thank you to the Television Academy for recognizing the talent, drive and passion of our Lessons in Chemistry team. To see so many departments lifted up is the greatest feeling. I am honored to say that I witnessed the most amazing people do the most amazing things. I am humbled by the world Bonnie Garmus and Elizabeth Zott has opened my heart to. And I am thrilled beyond belief that we get this chance to toast and eat together one last time. I’m the happiest woman in the universe.”

“I am so deeply honored to be nominated for an Emmy. It is difficult to put language to the abundance of emotion I feel right now but foremost in my mind is my deep gratitude. Gratitude to the Television Academy, the incredible Lessons in Chemistry cast and crew that I had the privilege to work alongside, and to every person who ever told me to keep going. Thank you.”
–Aja Naomi King, Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Lessons in Chemistry

“Thank you to the Television Academy for finally recognizing all my hard work on New Girl! Although I believe it’s a lock, I do see I’m nominated alongside Robert Downey Jr. who stole my role in Tropic Thunder. My fellow nominees and I won’t let this slide. 

This is a great honor, and I couldn’t be more excited! Truly blessed to work with such a talented cast and crew! Special thank you Noah for the opportunity and trusting me to bring Witt Farr to life! Go Fargo!”
–Lamorne Morris, Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Fargo

I am incredibly appreciative of the hard work and dedication of everyone involved in bringing this project to life. This recognition is a testament to our collective effort, and I am truly grateful.”
–Tadanobu Asano, Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series nominee for Shōgun

“We are so honored. We share this with Jen, Courtenay, Julie, Sue, Brianna and all the wonderful people at Amazon who have been so supportive. Casey McQuiston wrote a joyful, wonderful book that captured the imagination of readers everywhere.  We were honored to be trusted to turn it into a film and are so grateful to Matthew Lopez and our cast and crew, especially Nick Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez, for this wonderful ride.  Bringing hope and love into the world always feels worthwhile and we are most grateful to the fans for loving this film.”
–Greg Berlanti & Sarah Schechter, producers of Outstanding Television Movie nominee, Red, White & Royal Blue

“I’m incredibly happy that Red, White, and Royal Blue has been nominated for an Emmy today. It reflects the hard work and talents of so many people who helped bring it to life. The film was made with love and I’m very grateful for all the love it has received in response.”
–Matthew López, director of Outstanding Television Movie nominee, Red, White & Royal Blue

“In order to pull this season off, it meant everyone — from the greatest actress ever to the greatest propmaster swaddling each one of our Pickwick Triplets — bringing the most of their love, talent and ensemble spirit.  I watched it up close in amazement and today I’m out of my mind thrilled and grateful the Academy has seen them too, and honored so many of our cast and team of artists and collaborators in NY and LA that made our magical third season sing so unforgettably.”
–John Hoffman, Outstanding Comedy Series nominee for Only Murders in the Building

“Thank you to the Television Academy for this great honor.. I’m thrilled to be included in a category among such inspiring Costume Designers. This is my first nomination and I couldn’t think of a better project than “Shogun” to be nominated for. I share this with my crew, the hundreds of incredible artists in Vancouver and around the world who have supported me in creating thousands of costumes. The rich storytelling set in the Sengoku period, the uniqueness of the Japanese aesthetic and the complexity of all the characters have allowed me to design costumes I never thought possible. I’m so grateful to Justin Marks and Rachel Kondo for this once in a lifetime opportunity.”
–Carlos Rosario, Outstanding Period Costumes nominee for Shōgun

“I think I speak for the entire Marvel Animation and X-Men ’97 team when I say we are honored to be nominated for Outstanding Animated Program. Everyone involved with this series is a fan of the original X-Men: The Animated Series and working alongside the creative talent from that show to bring these iconic characters to a new audience was a dream come true.”
–Brad Winderbaum, Executive Producer of Outstanding Animated Program nominee, X-Men ’97

“We are humbled by this recognition.

With every project, you aim to make an impact. It has been deeply rewarding working with the brave contributors who participated in Quiet on Set and witnessing how their testimony inspired empathy, empowered others to come forward, and launched calls to better protect children across the industry.

We extend our sincerest gratitude to the voting academy for recognizing this series, and a deep thanks to our team, contributors, and the millions of viewers that have met this work with both passion and compassion.” 
–Mary Robertson and Emma Schwartz, Outstanding Documentary of Nonfiction Series nominee for Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV

I’m so grateful to the incredible team led by Fisher Stevens and also to all those people from my life and career who took part and who have played such an important role in my story.”
–David Beckham, subject of Outstanding Documentary of Nonfiction Series nominee, Beckham

 “For 11 seasons Evolution Media has producedVanderpump Rules.  Since we first premiered the show on Bravo in 2013, we have seen the popularity of the show grow as fans continue to follow the stories of our cast’s lives unfold.  Today, we are honored that the members of the Television Academy have recognized our dedicated cast and crew with a nomination for Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program.”
–Lucilla D’Agostino, head of Evolution Media (an Amazon MGM Studios Company), on Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program nominee for Vanderpump Rules

“We are thrilled and honored to be nominated by Faithful members of the Television Academy for this award. Making this murder mystery wouldn’t have been possible without the entire crew who work tirelessly to bring The Traitors world to life. We are beyond grateful to our castle’s king, Alan Cumming and the Season 2 cast. They absolutely killed it… and each other, in ways that not even we could imagine. In The Traitors, voting ends with a brutal banishment, thank you to the Academy for making this one end with a nomination instead.”
–Mike Cotton, Sam Rees Jones, Toni Ireland & Stephen Lambert on their nominations for Outstanding Reality Competition Program nominee, The Traitors

“It’s a thrilling morning, to not only be nominated for “Only Murders in the Building” but also for my score for DEFENDING MY LIFE, the exquisite Rob Reiner directed documentary on Albert Brooks. My 35 year relationship with Rob has brought me an endless amount of joy, and to work again with Albert after our collaboration on his film MOTHER made this even more special. To work with legends like Steve Martin, Rob Reiner and Albert Brooks and then be doubly nominated makes it very hard for me to not be very happy today. But don’t worry, I’ll find something to complain about!”
–Marc Shaiman, Outstanding Music & Lyrics nominee for “Which of the Pickwick Triplets Did It” from Only Murders in the Building and Outstanding Music Composition For A Documentary Series Or Special (Original Dramatic Score) nominee for Albert Brooks: Defending My Life

–Steve Zaillian, Outstanding Directing for a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee for Ripley

“On behalf of Media Res, I am thrilled and humbled that THE MORNING SHOW has received this recognition (and so many others today) alongside a group of exceptional drama series. Thank you to the Academy and Apple TV+, and our incredible partners in crime, Jennifer, Reese, Mimi and Charlotte, and our brilliant cast and crew who have brought this show to life for the past 3 seasons – it has been the most amazing creative journey working alongside them, one I could not be more excited to continue.”
–Michael Ellenberg, Executive Producer of Outstanding Drama Series nominee, The Morning Show

“Thank you Television Academy. It means so much to be recognized alongside such brilliant filmmakers. I love making documentaries, and making this documentary was particularly an incredible experience…

I want to thank David and Victoria for inviting me into their lives and showing the world how interesting, funny, loving, and dynamic they are. As a Liverpool fan, I never imagined I’d be directing a series on a Manchester United legend. But Beckham is more than a footballer, he is an icon and transcends the football world; he remains at the center of our celebrity culture. Finally, special shoutout and congrats to the dream team behind this series: Michael Harte, John Battsek, Billy Shepherd, Nicola Howson and all our amazing composers, mixers and camera crew. And to The Beckhams!”
–Fisher Stevens, Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series and Outstanding Directing for a Documentary/Nonfiction Program nominee for Beckham

“Thank you Television Academy for the recognition. I’m so honored to be nominated among some of the greats for an Emmy for Someday You’ll Die, especially since most of the material in this special is based on thoughts and feelings I once thought I would have to take to the grave. I’m so grateful for the support of HBO and my entire producing team who made my jokes feel more important than they ever have. Standup is usually such a solitary pursuit and for the first time with a comedy special in my career, I felt that this was a team effort. I have the coolest job and it keeps getting cooler.”
–Nikki Glaser, Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded) nominee and Outstanding Picture Editing For Variety Programming nominee for Nikki Glaser: Someday You’ll Die

“What is happening! Thank you to the Television Academy! We really weren’t expecting this, but damn did we put in some work — it’s not every day you get to make something with a bunch of your best friends and it’s definitely not every day that it then receives love this way.  We want to do a quick shout out to the people who deserve some recognition  — Jen, Vernon, Kara, Carina, and the entire Amazon team for your unwavering support in making this our way, Michael Schaefer (the muscle), Yariv and New Regency, Anthony “I’ll never say no” Katagas (you’re the man), Kaitlin (the glue), Fam (the secret sauce), Hiro (the visionary), Christian (the heart), Carmen Cuba (queen), Doug, Karena, Amy, Christina, Steve, Carla, Adamma, Adanne, Yvonne, Julia, Schuyler, Kyle, Isaac, Kate and especially Greg, Dave, Gerry, Ruth, Madeline, Blair, Cody, Stephen Murphy, Pope and his amazing team, Nathan, Rob, Eric, Glen, Emile, all of our ridiculously talented guest stars, the rest of the tirelessly committed cast and crew, including and especially to all of the PAs and assistants.

And most importantly, thank you to Maya for your generosity and incomparable genius in being our Jane. We love you all!

Love, Francesca and Donald”
–Donald Glover and Francesca Sloane on behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Smith’s 16 Emmy nominations, including Outstanding Drama Series, Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series, Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, and Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series.

“The stories that we tell each week remind us two things: first, that—despite our apparent differences—at the level of the genome, we are all fundamentally related, and second that the greatness of America is a result of the fact that we are a nation of immigrants, both willing and unwilling! I am thrilled that FINDING YOU ROOTS was nominated for an Emmy Award. It is incredible to find such success in our 10th season.  Our team works incredibly hard to bring these stories to life and this recognition means the world to us all.”
–Henry Louis Gates Jr., Outstanding Hosted Nonfiction Series or Special for Finding Your Roots with Henry Louis Gates Jr.

“6 Emmy nominations?! I am completely blown away and honored. Thank you to the Television Academy, FX, my Co-Chairman, the entire Welcome to Wrexham crew, and to the people of Wrexham… You are family. None of this is possible without all of you.

Cymru am byth!”
–Rob McElhenney, Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program nominee for Welcome to Wrexham

“WOW… this is unreal and wonderfully surreal and I am so happy, excited and very proud of OUR collective show and everyone who works tirelessly to make Top Chef so successful! I’m celebrating all of us!”
–Kristen Kish, Outstanding Host For A Reality Or Reality Competition Program nominee for Top Chef

“I am once again honored to shine a light on BET and BET+ for all their wonderful programming. Congrats to cast and crew without whom this show would not be possible…and kudos to Ms Pat and Jordan E Cooper’s creative minds who dream up this groundbreaking show.”
—MaryLou Belli, Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series for The Ms. Pat Show

“Wow! We can’t even pretend to be blasé about this. It’s truly an honor to be recognized by the Television Academy. It was a labor of love to bring Mr. Monk back after 14 years. We’re so grateful to Tony Shalhoub and our incredible featured cast for stepping back into their roles like no time had passed. Huge thanks to the entire Monk team who put everything into this movie and to Peacock and UCP’s support throughout.”
–Andy Breckman, Executive Producer of Outstanding Television Movie nominee, Mr. Monk’s Last Case: A Monk Movie

“The final season of The Crown is the culmination of 5 years of work for me on this brilliant & bold series. It has been such an honor to be part of it, and I am chuffed to bits to get this Emmy nomination.”
—Martin Phipps, Outstanding Music Composition For A Series (Original Dramatic Score) nominee for The Crown

“Wow.

Everyone in this category – including the Oscars – performed at the Cake Shop open mic on the Lower East Side in November of 2013, so I cannot believe that eleven years later we all get to be nominated together. I’ll never forget Jacq’s great french fry stuff and the Oscars’ really interesting material about George W. Bush. I’m so honored to be amongst them.

I owe thanks to the countless people who guided me through this process like a millipede through a minefield: my crew on Broadway, the producers of the show – which include fellow nominee and my unpaid therapist Mike Birbiglia – Alex Timbers, who directed a special I am so proud of and made every single moment of this process a joy, the brilliant editor Kelly Lyons, even though she cut out all of my scenes with The Rock (sad!).  To HBO and MAX? I could not appreciate all the faith and support you put behind this more. And thanks for The Larry Sanders Show. It rules.
I also want to acknowledge my closest friend and longtime collaborator Adam Brace, who passed a few weeks before our show started on Broadway. He’d be thrilled and probably a little bit cider-drinking about this. I miss him every day and thought of him all morning.
Finally, I want to thank the audiences who came to see my show and who watched it on HBO. Whether you sat in a cramped room in a Greek Cultural Center in Australia, a room behind a pub in London, the Hudson Theater on Broadway or your living room couch in Boston, this wouldn’t have happened without you coming to watch and telling other people. It’s been a six year journey. And what a nice denouement. Can you believe it?”
–Alex Edelman, Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special nominee for Alex Edelman: Just For Us

“Thank you for my nomination for Slow Horses. It is a joy to be a part of this outstanding show. My thanks also to everyone involved in making this dark, funny original thriller.”
–Jonathan Pryce, Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series nominee for Slow Horses

“Jason and I speak for the entire Aggregate Films team in acknowledging our gratitude to the Academy for the 10 nominations for “Lessons in Chemistry.”  Like the rest of the world, we devoured Bonnie Garmus’ book when it first came out, and instantly knew that we wanted to bring Elizabeth Zotti’s story to the screen. We are incredibly lucky to have partnered with Apple TV + and the amazing Brie Larsen and then with Lee Eisenberg and our exceptional cast, directors, writers, and phenomenal crew. A collaboration as special as this is worth celebrating.  We are thrilled the Television Academy has recognized Brie, Aja, and Lewis with individual nominations for their enormous talent and deep passion for everything they brought to the show.  We also thank our audience for embracing this show and watching the inimitable Elizabeth Zott speak to audiences worldwide.”

“I am surprised, thrilled, and delighted that I received an Emmy nomination for the amazing documentary Rock Hudson: All That Heaven Allowed! Stephen Kijak our brilliant director let me do my thing, which is a thoughtful jazz score. In many ways, it was the precursor for American Fiction. This was the first time that I collaborated with the amazing musician Elena Pinderhughes and also playing on the soundtrack is the incredible Keyon Harrold.

 For me, being able to express myself as a jazz musician and work on incredible queer content is a dream come true.”

“I couldn’t have imagined in my wildest dreams when I was writing this show in my tiny flat during Covid that it would go on to have 11 Emmy nominations. I am so grateful to the academy for recognising this show. You have made a little boy from a tiny Scottish town‘s dreams come true and I am crying, with happiness, even as I write this. I would like to extend my thanks to Netflix, Clerkenwell, and all the wonderful cast and crew who worked on this show, as well as my team who are quite simply the greatest. I would also like to thank We Are Survivors for all their help in the charities space, as well as the Suzy Lamplugh Trust. Ten years ago I was down and out. I hope this is a reminder for anyone going through a hard time right now to keep going. There is light even in the darkest of rooms. Fight hard and you will find it.”

“After getting to write for a legend like Steve Martin, for a production as joyous as Only Murders In The Building, it feels downright absurd–almost as absurd as our song about three triplet infants accused of murder–to receive this nomination for “Which Of The Pickwick Triplets Did It?” We’d like to thank John Hoffman and the entire team for inviting us to write this wacky little musical within their brilliant show, with extra thanks to Steve for such a glorious rendition of our song. Special mention too to Sidd, Bruce and Lauren from the Only Murders music department on their deserved nods. We look forward to getting the gang back together in September, and thank Steve, Marty, Selena, Meryl, Paul and the entire cast for the passion they poured into the music of Death Rattle Dazzle.”

What an honor to share this category with my fellow cast members Jon Hamm and Billy Crudup. In particular, seeing the acknowledgement for gifted and hardworking actors like Nicole Beharie, Greta Lee, Karen Pittman, and the legendary Holland Taylor is the most thrilling part of all of this. I want to thank all of our writers, directors, producers and of course Apple for making all of this possible.
