    • Quotes

      Self - Presenter: And the Emmy goes to... When do I get the results by the way?

      Presenter - Hazmat Suit: 3-6 weeks.

      Self - Presenter: Yes, very helpful. And the Emmy goes to... SCHITT'S CREEK!

      Self - Winner: We get one of these? Oh boy! Our show, at its core, is about the transformational effects of love and acceptance and we need more of that now than we ever have before for those who haven't registered to vote please do so. And then go out and vote because that is the only way we're going to have any love and acceptance. Please do that. I'm so sorry for making this political but I had to. Dad do the rest of the fun stuff.

      Self - Winner: [laughing] I'd like to thank Peter Sussman who was instrumental in putting this all together and getting us off the ground. I want to thank Sally Caddo and everyone at CBC. I want to thank the CMF for all of their financial support. I want to thank Brad Schwartz and Pop TV for launching us here in the States. I want to thank our distributor ITV for getting us off of the ground here and I want to thank Netflix for the spark that seemed to start everything. I also want to thank this young man who took our fish-out-of-water story about the Rose family and transformed it into a celebration of inclusivity, a castigation of homophobia, and a declaration of the power of love so thank you, Daniel, thank you academy. Thank you!

      Self - Winner: And thank you to a tremendous cast. We are so, so, proud to be accepting this award amidst our cast and crew members here. To those who may be watching at home, this is for all of you who did their work and did it 110%. I am so proud to be accepting this Emmy Award with our Canadian cast and crew. Thank you so, so, so, so much.

    COVID May Be A Serious Subject But It's Good Not To Take Yourself Too Seriously
    I didn't think the COVID bits were that bad it's just that Kimmel's bit with Jennifer Anniston wasn't funny.

    Jason Sudeikis' bit was a little more funny.

    "How long till I get the results by the way?"?

    "Three to six weeks!"!

    "Yes! Very helpful!"!
