'I am thrilled beyond belief! I was really shocked and a got really quiet and I've just now started to stop shaking. It overwhelming! It's beyond my wildest dream and certainly my childhood dream come true. I never could have imagined this. I had no idea what to expect our show is so different that I had no idea what to expect. When I saw the show coming up repeatedly this morning I was just blown away. I'm so thrilled that the people have put so much time are being recognized for their work. To celebrate I'm going to go to brunch with friends and go for a run in Central Park, which is my way of meditating in the city. And I'm so thrilled that I get to spend the rest of the day my wonderful cast.'

Rannells commented: 'I got to be funny - and a lot of times you're not supposed to be. I've certainly played those leading man or male juvenile roles, where you're not supposed to make people laugh. [The producers] let me sort of explore that and what is funny about that guy and also to make him quirky and weird in his own way.'
