Good Company
"I'm in a lot of company. God, it's a soccer team – we're too much for a hockey line." [Laughs]

Time To Celebrate
"Yeah, I think Christian [LeBlanc, Michael] and I are going to go celebrate ourselves. Last year and the year before we went out and we had lunch together and we giggled. So, we're going to go just giggle."

Scene Selection
"I'm badass [at picking scenes for other people's Emmy submissions]! Listen, I don't know if any of them have won, right, but we all help [each other]. That's really the fun of it because we all help each other and we get in there, we get food and we go in the conference room and we mess it up. Upstairs [in the production offices] they're like, "Oh great, here they come again." But we mess up the room and sometimes I'll play a show and Christian, within thirty seconds [will say], "No, no, not good." And I'm like, "Shut up and watch the rest." [And he'll say], "No, not good, you're already boring me." We're really tough [on each other]. It's friendly, constructive criticism, friendly argument, and that's the fun of it. It's so much fun. Doug [Davidson, Paul], Christian and I, we just were such goofballs and were there until 12 midnight [the last time]. And people misunderstood it like we're really analyzing [the scenes] but it was mainly us goofing around and just having a fun time. I like the commaraderie with the group."

Inspiring Co-Star
"Peter Bergman [Jack] is such a huge reason why I'm nominated. Peter was phenomenal in this show, really the best work I've ever seen him do. And he didn't even submit himself. He didn't want to be a part of it, and he had so many good shows. It's not that he didn't want to be a part of it, but he felt like he didn't have a strong year. He has so much integrity. He didn't want to just throw it out there. I told him, 'Peter, your shows are so phenomenal.'"
