–Anthony Anderson, Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series nominee for black-ish
“I’ve never undertaken something quite like our limited series The Underground Railroad but in the process of making it, a lesson I learned as a pupil revealed itself to be viciously true: a director is nothing without their cast, their crew; without the network of hundreds it takes to make a vision like this a dream realized and true. It’s for that reason I want to thank the Television Academy, on behalf of every soul who ever appeared at the bottom or top of any call sheet in our 116 days of shooting, for the recognition of this show alongside the exemplary nominees in the limited series category. It is always “an honor to be nominated.” Today I hope that phrase will serve as a celebration of the wonderful crew that gave this show its fuel and the selfless cast on whose wings it took flight.”

I’m thrilled for Billy Porter and MJ Rodriguez, who made history this morning as the first Trans actress nominated in the Drama Actress category.

The number of Black women who get to add “Emmy Nominated” before their names is giving me so much joy. We worked incredibly hard at the height of a global pandemic to bring this season to the audience and I was already extremely proud of it, but now I’m simply over the moon!

I have to be honest, I’m still in a little bit of shock. I mean we made a show with a CG dick monster, a whale explosion, singing fish gills, exploding heads, and a superhero whacking off on a high-rise over NYC. I’m extremely humbled and have much gratitude for the Academy voters saw through the comedy surface into the core of the extremely difficult, quality work and storytelling that goes in to making this show. I finished the last 3 months of post living in an RV in Northridge, during Corona. So yeah. Now here we are! Ca-razay.
All this insanity is thanks, of course, to Eric and his mad brain, Seth, Evan, the writers, our AH-MAZING cast ,and our super hard working crew! I’d be remiss to not directly mention Shalena Oxley-Butler, VFX Producer, but more than that, my partner in this whacko journey. Without her and her masterful and kind leadership there’d simply be no show. Then of course, Rian, Kat, our SPFX family led by Tony Kenny – and last, but certainly not least – EVERY SINGLE MOTHERF*CKING ARTIST, SUPERVISOR, WRANGLER, PA… YOU NAME IT at the companies that did the work.
You guys are the real heroes.
–Stephan Fleet, VFX Supervisor of Amazon’s The Boys

—Pamela Vallarelli and Ally Capriotti Grant, Outstanding Casting for a Reality Program for Queer Eye
“I am extremely humbled and honoured to be nominated for an Emmy for The Crown: Fairytale. It was an extraordinary experience given that Diana is such an important historical figure. Having lived through that history myself, it felt particularly pertinent to be delicate yet truthful. Creating the scene where a young and lonely Diana practises ballet before bursting into an impromptu dance to the sound of Elton John was a truly magical experience. It was an alchemy of sorts and I knew we had something special in the cutting room. Finally, I’d like to thank my peers that have voted for ‘Fairytale’ and share a huge appreciation to Drama Editors that have continued to tell fantastic and often difficult stories throughout this precarious time we’re living in.”
