Some reactions:

“Oh my God, it’s the job of a lifetime, the people that I get to work with. You’re just around so much talent, and we’ve really got a family thing going. Just so many special actors who know their characters like the back of their hands. When I’m in a scene, I’m also a fan and I’m like, ‘Oh my God, they’re killing it right now!’ So it’s really the greatest gig, and I’m so happy for everybody else getting their props.”

- Nicholas Braun of 'Succession,'?nominated for best supporting actor in a drama, one of the leading 25 nominations for the series.

“I have already drunk a bottle of Champagne … I am in a grueling process of writing Season 2. These nominations add to the pressure but as much as the pressure increases, I would say that my motivation also increases, because I want to deliver on the expectations.”?

- 'Squid Game'?creator Hwang Dong-hyuk, speaking from Jeju island in South Korea, where he is writing the next season after his show became the first non-English language series to vie for television’s top honor. It earned a best drama nomination and 13 other bids.

“We are a nauseatingly happy bunch! Because there is nobody, including Jason (Sudeikis), that thinks they’re more important in any scene than anyone else. And it has to come from him. He shines the light so universally away from himself. … It’s really, really healthy and supportive. And honestly, if you could have seen our WhatsApp group over the last two hours, it honestly is nauseating. We dig each other, we dig each other to death. And I will struggle to leave this group of players. I really will.”

- Hannah Waddingham on her 'Ted Lasso” ensemble. Waddingham was nominated again for the award she won last year, best-supporting actress in a comedy.

“My family sacrificed a lot for me to pursue my dreams. There’s always that fear in the back of your mind: ‘Did they sacrifice and give up too much? Am I ever going to achieve this dream that everyone has for me and I have?’ This makes me feel like this and everything was worth it.”

- Sydney Sweeney, was nominated for best-supporting actress in a drama series for?'Euphoria.'

“We came out of ‘Breaking Bad’ is a great show. It’s one of the best ever on TV. You always want to try to do right by that show — do right by your legacy. It feels like we’re continuing to fulfill the hope that people had for us to keep that level of excellence. I’m following (Bryan) Cranston and these great actors who set a really high water mark.”

- Bob Odenkirk, was nominated for best actor in a drama for 'Better Call Saul.'

“Holy fxxxing xxxx, this is fxxxing insane! For this to happen once is magic, but twice is a miracle. … I don’t know what to say. I’m really trying to learn to swear less. Golly gee. Is that better? Ah, who the fxxx am I kidding, thank you to the Academy.”

- Brett Goldstein of 'Ted Lasso'?in an email message after being nominated for best supporting actor in a comedy for the second successive year.

“It’s a pretty happy day! And I’m going to have some sushi and that’s going to make it a GREAT day. … It was just such a joy to work with Steve (Martin). We were like twins. … It’s crazy. I mean, I certainly didn’t expect this (nomination.) It’s just the coolest thing."

- Jane Lynch from 'Only Murders in the Building,'?nominated for guest actress in a comedy series.

“You never know if people are going to watch what you make so the entire experience of making a movie or show exists in its own creative and crazy bubble. ‘The Dropout’ was the most intense and surprisingly fun time, and for it to be appreciated in this way sweetens the whole experience for me."

-?Amanda Seyfried of 'The Dropout,'?nominated for best actress in a limited series or TV movie, in a statement.

“Like most character actors, I always think my last job will be my last ever acting job. Getting this very sweet nomination just makes me feel like at least I could be going out on a positive note if I never get an acting job. At least I’m not leaving the business with people being like ‘We hate you.’”

- Comedian Martha Kelly, was nominated as guest actress in a drama for her appearance in 'Euphoria.'

“I came at this with so much passion and the desire to reveal myself and challenging behavior in how women are treated. I greatly admire and desperately wanted to do justice to Pamela Anderson. I had no choice but to work harder than ever. I gave everything into it.”
