"Well I'm in a little bit of shock!! 13 nominations is absolutely insane. I woke up to a gif from my publicist Erica of a shirtless Anthony Rizzo from the Cubs and knew it was good news (because a shirtless Rizzo is always good news) but 13 is blowing my mind! I'm so intensely proud of my cast and crew who put their blood, sweat and tears (literally) into this show. This is not a solo sport and each and every one of them is responsible for helping make something we could be proud of. And a special shout out to my executive producing partners, showrunner Bruce Miller and EP Warren Littlefield. Our triangle of collaboration and trust has been a gift to me and I love you both.

It has already been a true honor to be entrusted with playing Ofglen; a character and inspiration originated by Margaret Atwood and so beautifully crafted by Bruce Miller. It has been a high point for me creatively to be led by Reed Morano's skillful and intuitively transportive direction, while acting alongside the utterly brilliant Elisabeth Moss. For 'Handmaid's' to now receive this much recognition, it's humbling, yet I'm so proud, and really excited for everyone."–Alexis Bledel

As written by Peter Gould and Vince Gilligan and the staff, he's a complex, compromised, and funny fella – he's got everything going' on!

"What is happening?! It's so nuts! I'm going to have to change my iPhone description from now on I got up early because I was going to keep it real and had zero expectations for this day. I was in a Pop Physique class this morning! It's an exercise class so I was working on buns from 8:30 to 9:30 and came out to a gazillion messages. I got a lot of vague 'woohoo!' texts so I had to try and figure out what was happening. I was flipping out, covered in sweat and now I'm on my way to a doctor's appointment. It's so crazy! I have to go call Rabbi Susan Goldberg who walked me through this whole journey. I definitely want to share this with her. I couldn't have done it without her." –Kathryn Hahn told The Hollywood Reporter
