Jon Hamm, Elizabeth Debicki and Other Emmy Vets’ Advice to First-Time Nominees: “Drink a Lot of Water”

Carrie Coon 

As a seasoned gamer with years of experience under my belt, I can’t help but draw parallels between the world of television and that of gaming. These actors are our modern-day heroes, battling it out in the realm of storytelling for the ultimate prize – the recognition of their peers.

The Gilded Age 

1. Make sure to drink plenty of water, especially since there might not be any available at the venue. Not only that, but remember the honor bestowed upon you by your nomination. It’s a tough job market, and many people are still feeling the effects of the strike. So, cherish this opportunity to network with other talented professionals in the industry. The real action is happening here and now, so be present and appreciate the experience!

The Traitors

1. It’s terrific that you’re engaged in the process – being right in the thick of it – rather than having to do nothing, the worst part is that losing brings on sympathy instead of admiration. Moreover, it’s beneficial to be occupied with other tasks – if you find yourself spending too much time [campaigning], it suggests that you might not be truly working elsewhere.

The Crown 

Each chapter of it remains incredibly dreamlike. Even today, it feels remarkably dreamlike, but last year, when nominated for The Crown, it was unbelievably surreal. Try not to dissect it too much. It’s simply delightful to have my work recognized. I believe actors can easily get lost in their thoughts, and having attended the Emmys and a few other award ceremonies, they are indeed peculiar yet enchanting. I am always left awestruck when I meet people I admire and express that their work is extraordinary.

Fargo

As a seasoned artist who has been in the bustling world of television for quite some time now, I can attest to the thrill and honor that comes with being recognized by one’s peers in this competitive field. It’s an exhilarating moment, especially when you’re new to the scene, as I once was. The feeling is akin to standing out in a crowded room, being noticed amidst the multitudes, and it’s always a win, no matter how small or big the recognition may be.
