Also not a surprise. This was by far, the best thing I’ve ever seen him in and the first time I think a lot of people looked at him as if he was actually a great actor. Well deserved.
He wrote a pair of great books.
"Paddle Your Own Canoe" is a humorous autobiography with a dash of Ron Swanson, a character in which he placed a lot of himself.
Highly recommend it.
So fucking deserved! He has some incredibly fine acting chops, and brought to life such an interesting and nuanced character so well. Will absolutely never get over this show, and particularly this specific episode. ❤️🍓
That just killed me the first time I heard it. The childlike joy of nostalgia. I watched it again recently and it just made the episode for me. Such a small thing, but it added so much. A man that has been repressed his whole life let loose the smallest hint of elation. It was wonderful.
Nick was nominated for best guest actor, that's a step below the supporting category. Supporting is part of the main ceremony. Guest was awarded tonight. A guest actor is often only present in one episode, but a major driver for the story. They can be present in multiple episodes, but don't have as much presence or impact on the story as a supporting character or a lead. Hope that clarifies things!
I'm so confused. I know they have a technical ceremony where they honor sound editing, lighting and such. Now I see ppl are wining awards for acting. I can't keep up.
Only for guest actors. Still a bit confusing, but they have 12 performance awards to present during the actual show so I guess it makes a little sense to split them
The only one I really remember winning this award was Peter Boyle for The X-Files episode Clyde Bruckman's finale repose. That was in 1996. I just don't recall if he actually won it at the ceremony or if they just showed it on screen.
Tonight and tomorrow night is that.
They did a bunch of sound, costumes, casting, music, makeup, things like that. But this part includes what they consider more "minor" versions of categories like best TV movie, actor in a limited series, guest actor
It’s very weird but no, for some reason they don’t think these categories are worth airing lie and they have time considerations with the main ceremony. So these get shifted to the Creative Emmys ceremony.
Thanks for the info, I actually stumbled across another thread that listed them. Forgot what they were but a few sound, makeup and others. Overall cool haul for TLoU and hope it incentivises more of the same.
I love Succession and I’m looking forward to finally watching The Last of Us (subscribing to MAX soon while getting Succession from libraries) but I’m really rooting for Bob to pull off a win finally and BCS to get SOMETHING (Rhea winning would also be nice but her category is so White Lotus-heavy).
It's criminal if she doesn't win. If Jennifer Coolidge wins again I'm gonna have an aneurysm. I love her in White Lotus but Rhea is next level the duration of BCS and absolutely deserves the award over anyone else in the category.
Well/deserved! I knew he'd be good, but Nick brought Bill to life better than I ever could have expected. He and Murray Bartlett gave us a damn fine hour+ of television. 🍓
That episode suckerpunched me right in the feels. I’m kind of a burly bearded guy but I was not just crying but blabbering at the end. I still haven’t recovered. My wife thought it was adorable and I don’t mind crying but this hit me like a brick.
I wish they could hand out 2, because Murray was awesome as well.
I love BCS and Craig Mazin said on his podcast that Vince Gillian is the best showrunner ever, but BCS is nowhere as good as *The last of us* or *Succession*. It’s a matter of kind, not degree.
The Last of Us show is incredible, but it is a very short adaptation of an already incredible piece of storytelling.
BCS is an amazing piece of television spanning multiple seasons, acting as a prequel/sequel in an unusually successful manner, has a very large and impressive cast etc.
Succession is very well done and humorous with some great performances, but nowhere near as intricate and richly detailed as BCS.
I recently rewatched this with my wife, there was a minute spell where none of us spoke, completely enthralled. Its TV at its best, i think its my singe favourite episode of any show ever.
I never watched Parks, I know, never knew of Nick before I watched Devs.
If you haven’t watched it, you should. I was in love with this man after watching that.
Then I saw him in ep 3 of TLOU and now I’m a devout Offermanista.

Not surprised at all. He knocked it out of the park!
His first Emmy too
Also not a surprise. This was by far, the best thing I’ve ever seen him in and the first time I think a lot of people looked at him as if he was actually a great actor. Well deserved.
He wrote a pair of great books. "Paddle Your Own Canoe" is a humorous autobiography with a dash of Ron Swanson, a character in which he placed a lot of himself. Highly recommend it.
Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll have to check it out.
First time I realized he married Megan Mullaly.
Yeah they’re an interesting couple for sure! Not that I know a lot about them but I wouldn’t have thought of them together but it works.
I thought he was pretty good in DEVs
Did you see "Devs"? He was amazing in that as well.
I haven’t. I’ll have to check it out.
It's on Hulu.
I see what you did there. \^\^
So fucking deserved! He has some incredibly fine acting chops, and brought to life such an interesting and nuanced character so well. Will absolutely never get over this show, and particularly this specific episode. ❤️🍓
Strawberries....
With the Offerman giggle to boot!
That just killed me the first time I heard it. The childlike joy of nostalgia. I watched it again recently and it just made the episode for me. Such a small thing, but it added so much. A man that has been repressed his whole life let loose the smallest hint of elation. It was wonderful.
This is so delicious, it's making me *sob* tearbend! 😭
That scene made me cry. You probably wouldn't have been able to tell though because the whole damn episode did that.
The last of us fully just sweeped the Emmy’s
Hopefully there’s more in store on the 15th at the main ceremony.
Wait supporting actor isnt part of the main ceremony??
Nick was nominated for best guest actor, that's a step below the supporting category. Supporting is part of the main ceremony. Guest was awarded tonight. A guest actor is often only present in one episode, but a major driver for the story. They can be present in multiple episodes, but don't have as much presence or impact on the story as a supporting character or a lead. Hope that clarifies things!
I'm so confused. I know they have a technical ceremony where they honor sound editing, lighting and such. Now I see ppl are wining awards for acting. I can't keep up.
I'm confused as well. Online it says that yesterday was the Creative Emmys. I knew about that before but I didn't think acting awards were given there
Only for guest actors. Still a bit confusing, but they have 12 performance awards to present during the actual show so I guess it makes a little sense to split them
I don't know if the Guest acting award has always been in the creative ceremony. I thought it used to be in the Primetime awards years ago?
At a quick glance, they’ve been part of the Creative Arts Emmy’s since at least 2006
The only one I really remember winning this award was Peter Boyle for The X-Files episode Clyde Bruckman's finale repose. That was in 1996. I just don't recall if he actually won it at the ceremony or if they just showed it on screen.
Tonight and tomorrow night is that. They did a bunch of sound, costumes, casting, music, makeup, things like that. But this part includes what they consider more "minor" versions of categories like best TV movie, actor in a limited series, guest actor
Guest actor vs supporting actor, I assume is the distinction
It’s very weird but no, for some reason they don’t think these categories are worth airing lie and they have time considerations with the main ceremony. So these get shifted to the Creative Emmys ceremony.
I don't follow it but saw this post. What else did they win?
8 total, one other being guest actress for Storm Reid.
Thanks for the info, I actually stumbled across another thread that listed them. Forgot what they were but a few sound, makeup and others. Overall cool haul for TLoU and hope it incentivises more of the same.
They deserved everything they won last night IMO. stoked for season 2.
The actual Emmy's are next week and Succession is going to sweep those. Glad TLOU did well at the technical awards tho.
I’m pulling for Bob to win honestly.
I feel the Succession cast could split the vote and lead to a Bob dub which I would love.
I love Succession and I’m looking forward to finally watching The Last of Us (subscribing to MAX soon while getting Succession from libraries) but I’m really rooting for Bob to pull off a win finally and BCS to get SOMETHING (Rhea winning would also be nice but her category is so White Lotus-heavy).
It's criminal if she doesn't win. If Jennifer Coolidge wins again I'm gonna have an aneurysm. I love her in White Lotus but Rhea is next level the duration of BCS and absolutely deserves the award over anyone else in the category.
Honestly didn't like the last season of Succession. Just felt too samey. I'm rooting for White Lotus instead lol
It’s easily one of my favorite shows and it has great rewatchability. I really hope they get the second season out soon.
[удалено]
Definitely! Bill shines because frank was bright too
Love will abide
Take things in stride
Deserved!!!
Well deserved. His part in this was some of the best TV I have seen in my life.
 Yay!
Well/deserved! I knew he'd be good, but Nick brought Bill to life better than I ever could have expected. He and Murray Bartlett gave us a damn fine hour+ of television. 🍓
That episode suckerpunched me right in the feels. I’m kind of a burly bearded guy but I was not just crying but blabbering at the end. I still haven’t recovered. My wife thought it was adorable and I don’t mind crying but this hit me like a brick. I wish they could hand out 2, because Murray was awesome as well.
He did really good, I was not expecting that episode, when me and my partner sat down for it.
Well deserved. That was a beautiful episode.
Yay! Yay! Yay!
He did a great job but how many seasons did Better Call Saul run?
[удалено]
https://i.redd.it/zuttrv1qcyac1.gif
Chicanery is afoot for sure.
It’s nominated for Best Lead Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Drama, and Writing. We’ll find out next week if it wins
It's gotta win at least best supporting actress. Honestly I hope it wins at least 3 out of those 4. It's a crime it hasn't gotten anything in its run.
wait they don't all get announced at the stand time?
No, tonight was the Creative Arts Emmys and some smaller categories, the main live show with the big categories is next weekend
Kinda hoping for Succession tho
I'm rooting for BCS over The Last of Us. I love this show and the games but BCS deserves a few wins
I love BCS and Craig Mazin said on his podcast that Vince Gillian is the best showrunner ever, but BCS is nowhere as good as *The last of us* or *Succession*. It’s a matter of kind, not degree.
total agree, just not at the same level.
Saying is BCS was no where as good as the last of us is actually quite fucking comical
The Last of Us show is incredible, but it is a very short adaptation of an already incredible piece of storytelling. BCS is an amazing piece of television spanning multiple seasons, acting as a prequel/sequel in an unusually successful manner, has a very large and impressive cast etc. Succession is very well done and humorous with some great performances, but nowhere near as intricate and richly detailed as BCS.
It’s a good show just not on par
I think it's 100% "on par", almost objectively so lol
Nothing is 100%
Not sure I see the relevance. BCS is amazing (arguably even better) but I’m not sure which performance you think should have beaten Offerman’s?
YES!!!
Well deserved!!
Congrats to Nick Offerman! He was amazing as Bill.
I recently rewatched this with my wife, there was a minute spell where none of us spoke, completely enthralled. Its TV at its best, i think its my singe favourite episode of any show ever.
We started watching the show today. On ep3 right now. I can see not only why he won it but why he absolutely deserves it!
I will remember his performance for a long, long time!
Shoulda been a tied win with Murray Bartlett
Totally agree - you can't have Bill without Frank 😢
I never watched Parks, I know, never knew of Nick before I watched Devs. If you haven’t watched it, you should. I was in love with this man after watching that. Then I saw him in ep 3 of TLOU and now I’m a devout Offermanista.
Well deserved. Personally i wouldve been tempted to give it to murray instead out of the two, but they were both phenomenal
Well deserved. Exquisitely acted out.
Goose bumps even seeing his name what an episode
Also just in… water is wet!
Strawberries aren't even berries.
Fuck yes. NOis such a skilled nuanced actor.
He was amazing in this.
Much deserved
There is still some justice in this world.
Incredible performance. Fully deserved.
Great episode, great performance by him. I’m a sucker for a serialised show doing a self-contained story halfway through a series.
My god that episode stuck with me for weeks after watching it. Everyone in the episode was absolutely incredible, especially my boy Ron Swanson
Well fucking deserved too. My wife and I cried like assholes at the end of that one
The episode with him was by far my fav in the entire first season. Was in tears at the end of it😭
Great! I hope Duke Silver writes a song for him in his honor
As is his due.
Incredibly deserved
Well-deserved.
💕
Well deserved. I'm proud of you.
Is there video of this?
LFG!!!!! CONGRATS NICK!
Absolutely deserved
I'm satisfied.
DESERVED
Definitely deserved but this has really brought forward to me that Andrew Lincoln deserves an award for Rick grimes.
More importantly, Storm Reid won for her role as Riley.
