Check back here for more reactions from TV nominees throughout the day!

“Headed to the set of The Prom for the first day of shooting. About to see Meryl and can’t wait to give her a big hug! Thanks to the HFPA for everything you have done for Big Little Lies season 2 and its subject matter. It means the world to all of us.”
–Nicole Kidman, Best Actress in a Drama Series for Big Little Lies

“I have never loved a Monday morning more!  How exciting to wake up to this news and I am so honored to be included with my incredible partner Reese, and all the other extraordinary actresses in our category.  Thank you to the HFPA for recognizing our show and all the passion we put into making it.  From everyone at Apple TV+, the producers, directors, everyone both in front and behind the camera, we put our heart and soul into The Morning Show and I/we are so grateful that you recognized us with these nominations.”
–Jennifer Aniston, Best Actress in a Drama Series nominee for The Morning Show

“When I’m awakened by shaking and my husband’s much too loud and excited voice at 5 AM, it must be a good day!  I’ve been blessed to work with talented actors and creative teams throughout my career, but this year really takes the cake because I had the honor of working with two amazing groups of people on both Big Little Lies and The Morning Show! I can’t say enough about each actor, writer, producer creator and member of the hardworking crews that brought these stories to life. Acting is my first love and it was always my dream when I began producing and started Hello Sunshine that we would create smart and compelling stories with strong female voices at the center, but to have people actually enjoy the work we do is truly all I could have hoped for! I’m grateful to the HFPA and to my partners HBO and Apple, David E. Kelly and Kerry Ehrin, Nicole, Laura, Shailene, Zoe, Meryl, Jen, Steve, Billy, Mark, Gugu, Karen, and everyone who had a hand in bringing Big Little Lies and The Morning Show to life!”
–Reese Witherspoon, Best Actress in a Drama Series nominee for The Morning Show

“I am so grateful to the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for recognizing ‘The Morning Show’ and Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon’s outstanding performances.  A huge thank you to Apple TV+ for their incredible partnership and the remarkable cast and crew, who I’m honored to share this nomination with.”
–Michael Ellenberg, Producer of Best Drama Series nominee, The Morning Show

“What a beautiful morning for The Morning Show! Feeling grateful to be able to bring this story to light alongside a most brilliant group of artists – our cast and crew who worked passionately from their hearts and souls to continue the conversation of power, greed, and toxicity in the workplace. It is an important time, and a privilege, to be able to tell stories and create art that reflects the times we are living in. Thank you HFPA for this incredible honor and for also recognizing Jennifer and Reese. Working with them is a dream come true. Kerry, Michael and I are blown away!”
–Mimi Leder, Director and Executive Producer of The Morning Show

“Everybody has a story. Stories create empathy. Empathy creates a pathway to the respect of our collective humanity. Thank you Hollywood Foreign Press Association for seeing POSE and helping to illuminate and share our stories with the world. The Category is…LOVE!”
–Billy Porter, Best Actor in a Drama Series nominee for Pose

“I’m thrilled at the news of the nomination this morning in particular because I tried really hard! I wanted to do full justice to the complexities of this woman. I don’t think life was very easy for her, but it’s certainly fun to pretend to be her!”
–Helena Bonham Carter, Best Supporting Actress nominee for The Crown

“I am beyond excited and honored to be nominated for my first ever Golden Globe along with our series! Everyone in our Politician family has worked so hard on our show and done so with such love, so I’m very grateful that the HFPA has recognized us and I’m proud of my extraordinary ensemble. Congratulations to all the other very deserving nominees (especially my best friend Beanie Feldstein)!!”
–Ben Platt, Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy Series for The Politician

“A heartfelt thank you to the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for this honour. I have long wanted to move away from comedy and do something uncommercial, not reliant on jokes, that few people would see – which I achieved with the The Brothers Grimsby. I am hugely proud of The Spy and thrilled that it has been seen and embraced by audiences around the globe. I share this recognition with Eli Cohen’s family and everyone who worked on The Spy. I’d also like to express my thanks to the brilliant team at Netflix and to our visionary writer/director Gidi Raff.”
–Sasha Baron Cohen, Best Actor in a Musical of Comedy Series for The Spy

–Alan Arkin, Best Supporting Actor nominee for The Kominsky Method

“I’m incredibly proud that the show was nominated, and it’s so rewarding to see the hard work and talent of Reese and Jen recognized.  Mimi, Michael and I could not be more delighted and grateful to the HFPA for this honor, and to Apple for all their support.”
–Kerry Ehrin, Executive Producer and Showrunner of Best Drama Series nominee, The Morning Show

“Beyond thrilled – for the show of course, but in particular for our new cast. We all knew how hard it would be to follow the previous gang – but they have done that and more. We could not be happier with the audience response around the world and thank the HFPA for this acknowledgement.”
–Peter Morgan, Creator and writer of Drama Series nominee, The Crown

–Christina Applegate, Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Series for Dead to Me

“Thank you Hollywood Foreign Press for this incredible honor. I put my heart and soul into Nadia Vulvokov and share this recognition with everyone who worked tirelessly on Russian Doll. Thank you to Amy and Leslye for helping me craft with such detail and to Netflix and NBC Universal for your support. This nomination is very affirming on a creative level and means the world to me. Currently hard at work in the writers’ room on our second season where I’ll be spending most of the day plotting how to get Joe Pesci’s autograph at the ceremony. Thank you!”
–Natasha Lyonne, Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy nominee for Russian Doll

“Wow. I can’t believe this!!! Thank you to the HFPA, Golden Globes for your support and nominating me for my first Golden Globe. I feel so blessed to be recognized alongside such a talented group of women. To my fellow “Unbelievable” cast, and the extraordinary producers, congratulations! It was a team effort to bring Marie’s story to the forefront and do her justice. THANK YOU to everyone who put their trust in me to portray Marie. I’m incredibly honored and overwhelmed”
–Kaitlyn Dever, Best Actress in a Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for Television for Unbelievable

“What an honor to be nominated for a Golden Globe and I’m grateful to the HFPA. I’m humbled to be included in a group that’s so talented and respected.”

“This is thrilling, especially given Unbelievable’s challenging subject matter. To see all the hard work of our whole team honored by the HFPA in this way is really exciting. It’s equally thrilling to see Toni, Merritt and Kaitlyn to all be individually recognized for their remarkable performances. They’re a dream team of actors who each brought so much to Unbelievable, and are all fully deserving of this great honor.”
–Susannah Grant, Creator of Best Limited Series or Mini Series Made for Television nominee, Unbelievable
