I'm sure that the everyone is excited for their nomination, including one of my favorite actors Michael C. Hall (Dexter). Here is what he had to say about his nomination:
"It really makes it so much richer an experience for the show to receive the nomination too. It would be kind of isolating if I were the only one nominated. ...Now with Dexter, we don't want to keep him killing people incidentally. And there has been a real evolution in how he executes the code, and he is a little adrift. But I look forward to seeing where he goes from here."
Christina Hendricks (Mad Men) will wow us on the red carpet-- I'm pretty confident of that. Here was her reaction to being nominated:
"My cheeks hurt from smiling. People really support Joan. There's a 'you go girl' attitude with her. Joan has had a lot of obstacles but keeps coming back with confidence. People appreciate it. We're all incredible perfectionists on the set and never get comfortable. We're constantly trying to better ourselves."
