But seriously, I think overall in the scheme of things winning an Emmy is not important. Let's get our priorities straight. I think we all know what's really important in life - winning an Oscar.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Truly what the Emmys are about are the machine behind them, and Oscars are the same way, where if you have a big enough machine behind you, you get nominated, because truly how many of the best performances actually win... not many.
I think the Emmy obviously is very prestigious and is the gold standard obviously in terms of television. But the Oscars go beyond that. I believe children, when they're growing up, dream of holding that Oscar.
I think the most important thing about the Emmys stuff is just to enjoy it. It can get really stressful in weird ways, and I have definitely experienced that. This year, I really just want to have it be a fun celebration!
Ultimately the Emmys are a popularity contest.
The Emmy should be an ensemble award, too. I kept howling at everyone else's performances.
The Emmys seem like an entity unto themselves that have an agenda that sometimes corresponds to quality, sometimes doesn't.
This great imperialistic world called the United States has made us believe that an Oscar is the most important thing in the world for an actor. But if you think about it for five minutes you realise it can't be.
So many people have won Emmys, so many people have won multiple Emmys that I think it's a degraded award.
The Emmys is great, but the Golden Globes, you have the stars of television and the stars of movies in one place.
It's a great way to start the day, hearing you've been nominated for an Emmy. It's just thrilling.
