As you’re aware by now, the 2014 Emmy Awards nominees were announced this morning, and — although we never get what we want — I guess the least we can do is congratulate those who did get nominated by sharing their reactions.

Lena Dunham (who was nominated herself) on behalf of Adam Driver:
We are very proud of Adam. He’s a gift to our show and our lives! And he’s too classy 4 twitter. — Lena Dunham (@lenadunham) July 10, 2014
Kevin Spacey:
Couldn’t work beside more talented people, congratulations @HouseofCards on 13 #Emmys nominations! — Kevin Spacey (@KevinSpacey) July 10, 2014
Aaron Paul is like, LOL again?

Jeff Daniels:
Honored by the Emmy Nom. 3yrs ago, Sorkin Vet told me, “Wait’ll you see what you get to say.” Just ridin’ his words. pic.twitter.com/irAEN43gi8 — Jeff Daniels (@Jeff_Daniels) July 10, 2014
OPINION TIME: Ricky Gervais definitely deserves to be nominated for Derek, but I’m conflicted that it’s for “best actor in a comedy,” given the way he very poignantly and delicately plays a mentally disabled man. Chalk another one up to The Emmys Are Stupid.
I have never been more exited & proud of a nomination. I honestly nearly cried. A sincere thank you. #emmys #derek pic.twitter.com/D2kK0vakfT — Ricky Gervais (@rickygervais) July 10, 2014
