Having that amount of nominations makes me a little nervous, because you feel that the bar is really high, the expectations are really high, but it also feels great.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm thrilled when I get nominated. I don't count how many and I don't remember how many I've had. I just know it's a lot.
It hasn't been hard getting nominated, but winning it is another thing. The competition is tough.
I just have always felt that I think we know that it's an ensemble show, and it's very hard to pick a show to submit when you're nominated, because usually everyone has a very strong part in every episode.
I can tell you that going to the Oscars is not as exciting as people think, at least for me.
It would be nice if we could clear up the nominations that are still out there, and there are a lot of them.
I do know there are a lot of people who seem to be in my corner, and that's, of course, wonderful. I'm really more interested in the nomination than in the award, because I think the nomination just puts you within a group of outstanding actors.
The three of us just try put our heads down and stay creative. The awards truly are just cake. It's one of those things that you never expect, but getting the head nod from either the fans or your peers, that's the ultimate compliment.
Being nominated is the win. For me, being nominated is winning. It's just unbelievable.
Nominations come and go. It is not going to happen to you every year, and I am very well aware of that.
Well, you know the old line - to be nominated is what it's all about. I think that I've done pretty well - I've had about 46, or 47 nominations from my movies, and my films have won about 12 awards in total, so I don't really have any complaints.
