Outstanding Reality Competition Program

"I am honored to see So You Think You Can Dance recognized with 7 new Emmy nominations. So You Think You Can Dance has allowed me to share my love of dance, provide opportunities to thousands of aspiring dancers, and inspire millions more to make dance a part of their lives. We reached out to Congress and launched National Dance Day to encourage children to dance and to get active and healthy in the process. Since the show premiered in 2005, we have adapted localized versions of it for over 25 nations around the world - a testament to the universal power of dance. I have a wonderful production team and incredible choreographers. I am delighted to see the past decade of our contributions to television and culture recognized with these seven Emmy nominations for So You Think You Can Dance."

Linda Cardellini (Mad Men)

Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama

"I'm stunned and excited and exhilarated and exhausted at the same moment, and I'm very happy... I can't even thank [series creator Matthew Weiner] for this fantastic role that I get to play in Don Draper's life. I think Don Draper is such an iconic television character - played so beautifully by Jon Hamm - that to be part of his spiral and part of the change that happens to him... it was really so great for me."

Rob Corddry, Creator (Childrens Hospital)

Outstanding Special Class -- Short-Format Live-Action Entertainment Program

"We're all so grateful over here, for the validation, the encouragement and mostly for our loyal fan base and their loud, opinionated mouths. Personally, I'm really excited for the future. The list of nominees reflects what I like to watch, and I feel less like a bald loner in his garage writing d--k jokes and homages to obscure movies for no one. This era in television will be written about and I'm happy to be watching it firsthand."

Elisabeth Moss (Mad Men and Top of the Lake)

Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama and Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries or Movie

"I woke up and I did not intend to get up, but I checked my phone - as you do - and I saw that I had one text from [Nashville's] Connie Britton, who's my friend, and a voicemail from my publicist, Erica. I was like, what is this about? I checked the message and she said, "Double nomination," and I was sort of shocked and confused [laughs]. I don't think it's sunk in. I have a birthday next week, and it's kind of a nice little birthday present. I just want to... feel good about and enjoy this moment. I'm so honored to be part of these two groups - Mad Men and Top of the Lake - and I'm proud of both of them. They're both families. It's something I just want to enjoy. This is a good moment."

Laura Dern (Enlightened)

Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy

"I'm so thrilled and grateful to the Academy for this lovely news. The role of Amy Jellicoe is a shared creation, and therefore I share this nomination with the extraordinary [series creator] Mike White for his creation and vision. I also share this with the greatest cast ever, who made Amy all that she is, as well as all of the directors and our crew who have helped shape her. I am excited and thankful for any support our show is offered, so that people can continue to find it."

Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones)

Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama

"6 am rolls around this morning and my alarm in my hotel went off randomly -- and I never set it. So I was in a daze, finding things to throw at this machine that I couldn't get to stop beeping. Then my phone was ringing... I've kind of just been laughing and smiling ever since... I'm so, so happy that the show itself got nominated and above and beyond happy that [executive producers/writers] David [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss] got nominated for writing. I think that they are the hardest working, most talented people I get the privilege to work with."

Carrie Preston (The Good Wife)

Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama

"I was walking my dog in New York City this morning, and then my texts started blowing up with "Congratulations!" "Congratulations!" And I thought, "Oh my gosh. Congratulations for what? Hopefully it's what I think it is!" And then I stopped dead in my tracks in the middle of New York City saying "Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!"

Kerry Washington (Scandal)

Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama

"I found out right before I stepped on a plane, and then [the flight crew] started yelling at me to turn off my phone. [Laughs]. My publicist and friend Michelle Benson called me, and then I was able to call my manager and a couple other people -- which is why I got in trouble! It's really exciting. The thing is, to whatever extent anybody is celebrating this character or the portrayal of this character, it really is a celebration of this entire cast, because we are a company of actors that really lean on each other. This work is a reflection of the talent around me, a level of excellence that I am constantly trying to elevate myself to meet."

Almost four years into this journey, and well underway on production for Season 2, it's such a thrill to have the collective efforts of our talented cast, crew, designers, directors and writers recognized by the Television Academy. This dedicated team has made House of Cards by far the most rewarding artistic experience of my career. I'm particularly happy for Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright -- they are the center of our show's universe and make every episode shine. And of course I'm delighted for [director and executive producer] David Fincher -- his brilliance and vision inspire us all."

I've never had something so wonderful happen four years in a row before, other than winning the New York state lottery from 1993 to '97. I share this with the entire cast and crew of Modern Family. I'm sure it's not surprising to anyone who's ever worked on a television show, but our writers are the reason we're still in this position. I'm eternally grateful for their talent and surprising good looks."

Homer J. Simpson (The Simpsons)

Connie Britton (Nashville)

Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama

"Every single time I've ever been nominated it's always felt like a surprise. I never, ever take it for granted. I'm just always so thrilled. And every nomination is different. Nashville was a big risk for me, it was scary in a lot of ways to be taking on the singing and all of that. So I just feel stunned and grateful to the Academy. I also feel like I'm representing all of my peeps here at the show. Everybody has worked so hard."

Vera Farmiga (Bates Motel)

Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama

"My husband is my biggest fan ever and he really, really wanted me to get a nomination. He wanted this more than I did. [Laughs] I think because he knows how hard I worked this year. And he's also been stuck with the two kids while I've been working.... [To celebrate] I'm going to take Freddie [Highmore] and sneak into a preview of [my new film] The Conjuring. I want to scare the bejesus out of him."

Jimmy Fallon (Late Night With Jimmy Fallon)

Morena Baccarin (Homeland)

Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama

Jim Parsons (The Big Bang Theory)

Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy

""It never gets old, that's for damn sure... The longer we're on the air, for me it feels a little more of an honor. Every year, there's so much more out there, there are so many wonderful choices and it gets harder to get an audience in general. So to be included is, honestly, all the sweeter as time goes by. And I'm just thrilled for the show; the writers do such a wonderful job, the recognition for them makes me ecstatic. They are the only reason we have a show at all. No one's going to film me just standing there for 22 minutes!"

Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon, Co-Creators (Homeland)

Outstanding Drama Series

Gansa: "It's an honor to be included among shows we watch and admire - the field is more crowded than ever. We are ridiculously lucky to be writing for our incredible cast and crew. It's great to see our actors and crew be recognized for their singular contributions. Thanks to Showtime and Fox 21 for making it all possible. [And regarding Henry Bromell's posthumous Outstanding Writing nomination] We could not be more thrilled that Henry's work is being recognized. Henry was our lodestar -- a brilliant writer and a generous soul. We miss him every day. It's a tremendous tribute to his memory and we're so honored."

Gordon: "It's always humbling when you're recognized by your peers and colleagues. This is an amazing cast and crew as a whole, but Henry Bromell's nomination for outstanding writing is especially meaningful. Henry was an amazing talent and extraordinary person whose contributions and presence continues to be missed."
