“On behalf of the cast, crew and staff of Fuller House, we are beyond honored and thrilled by today’s Emmy nomination. For many members of this team, it is a dream thirty years in the making.”
– Bryan Behar & EPs, Outstanding Children’s Program, “Fuller House”
“Here at Scout Productions, our hearts are filled with gratitude for this honor the Academy has bestowed on Queer Eye. We are so proud of the show and thankful to everyone who worked on it, especially the Fab Five, a fab crew and our partners Netflix and ITV. We also hope that in these divisive times, in some way, Queer Eye changes the conversation our culture is having, to one of empathy and understanding. Or stated more simply, Yasssss!”
– David Collins, Creator & EP, Outstanding Structured Reality Program, “Queer Eye”
“We are grateful to the Academy for the nominations, and humbled by the recognition from our peers. America seems like a very different place today from when we started this film nearly eleven years ago. The lessons of the Vietnam War are all the more important as we try to understand the divisions within our country as well as the impact we have on other nations. Creating an 18 hour film like THE VIETNAM WAR requires a huge number of people, including our writer, Geoffrey Ward, who was also nominated today, senior producer Sarah Botstein, the sound mixing and editing teams who were nominated today, composers Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross and the editors, cinematographers and producers here and in Vietnam. We’re greatly appreciative of their work, as we are of the nearly 100 men and women in the U.S. and Vietnam who agreed to share their stories.”
– Ken Burns & Lynn Novick, Outstanding Directing For a Documentary/Nonfiction Program, “The Vietnam War”
“Nearly 60 years ago, National Geographic commissioned Hugo Van Lawick to document Jane Goodall’s groundbreaking research into chimpanzee behavior. Today’s 7 nominations, including a posthumous nod for Hugo, is a testament to the continuous support of National Geographic and several generations of producers, researchers, and filmmakers whose efforts and passion grace every frame of this film. I am particularly pleased to see the sound and edit teams recognized for their groundbreaking work in transforming hundreds of hours of silent shots into the immersive experience that is JANE. Lastly, we’d like to thank the Academy for honoring the work and legacy of Dr. Jane Goodall who remains a beacon of hope, courage, strength, and empowerment for us all.”
– Brett Morgen, Outstanding Directing For a Documentary/Nonfiction Program, “Jane”
“I’m so incredibly proud of the entire Genius: Picasso team. What an amazing cast led by the incomparable Antonio Banderas, and a talented and dedicated crew. I’m so grateful to all of them, and to my producing partners, Imagine Television, Fox21 and National Geographic for giving me the opportunity to make this show. It’s the gig of a lifetime.”
-Ken Biller, Outstanding Limited Series, “Genius: Picasso”
“We are again incredibly grateful to the Television Academy for recognizing the second season of GENIUS, a series all of us at Imagine are immensely proud of. We also want to congratulate Antonio Banderas for being recognized for his unbelievable transformation into Pablo Picasso, his lifelong hometown hero, and a role he was born to play. This is also a celebration for the hundreds of hard working crafts people whose work behind the scenes brought this story to audiences around the world, several of whom you’ve honored this morning as well. We’d like to thank our partners at National Geographic, Fox 21 Television Studios, Madison Wells Media and EUE/Sokolow for their tireless efforts.”
-Brian Grazer & Ron Howard, Outstanding Limited Series, “Genius: Picasso”
“We’re beyond thrilled to have been honoured with these nominations by the Academy, and especially delighted that Claire, Matt, Vanessa and Matthew have been recognised for their extraordinary performances. We’re all still in mourning after last night’s world cup defeat, but I know this news will go some way to restoring our spirits.”
– Peter Morgan, Outstanding Drama Series, “The Crown”
“My sincerest thank you to the Television Academy for this incredible recognition. When I was growing up in Malaga, Spain, I used to pass by Pablo Picasso’s house every day on my way to school, and now to be recognized for playing such an important figure in my life means more than I could ever say. This nomination is dedicated to the people of my hometown of Malaga and to Pablo the artist himself. I must also thank National Geographic, Fox 21 Television Studios, Imagine Entertainment and our showrunner and executive producer Ken Biller for their indefatigable efforts to bring the series to audiences around the world.”
-Antonio Banderas, Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series, “Genius: Picasso”
“Thanks to the TV Academy for giving us a reason to go get ice cream at 11 am. We’re so honored that our bonkers show has been recognized. And we are grateful to everyone behind the bodyslams. It’s not easy making a period half-hour comedy where all the actors do their own stunts and also have to make you feel things. Our writers, cast and crew show up daily to work with so much dedication and passion. So. We’re over the moon.”
– Liz Flahive & Carly Mensch, Outstanding Comedy Series, “GLOW”
“I had the happiest time of my life playing Margaret. I’m just so grateful and honoured to be have been recognised by the Emmys alongside such incredible actresses. And so wonderful to be with my great friends Claire, Matt and Matthew too. Thank you so very much Emmys.. and to Margaret!!”
