I'm really proud of the writing on Door to Door, and I think that's the Emmy that meant the most - the writing.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I earned two Emmy nominations for writing, and two of the shows I had written were nominated for best in their category.
Emmys are wonderful and I'm thrilled to death that I have mine. But they're representative of a specific achievement, where this sort of thing is representative of how you've grown in your own industry.
It's a great way to start the day, hearing you've been nominated for an Emmy. It's just thrilling.
But the character was so successful, that first one, that they wrote him again and he came in right at the end of the first year in a show called THE BOX. I was up for the Emmy for that one too.
I've been nominated for 12 Emmys, and we won - for 'Top Chef' - the only time I didn't go.
The Emmys is great, but the Golden Globes, you have the stars of television and the stars of movies in one place.
It was very cool to be honored and be acknowledged in that way for the first time ever, being nominated for an Emmy.
When you feel an audience engaged and surprised and enthusiastic, reacting to what you've planned, that is the reward. It's better than the Emmys.
Probably one of the happiest moments, outside the birth of all of my kids, was the first time we won an Emmy, that the show won an Emmy. That was a big night.
The Emmy should be an ensemble award, too. I kept howling at everyone else's performances.
