At last Rhea Seehorn has won the Emmy she's long deserved, and in her acceptance speech above you can see how much the moment means to her.

"Gosh, sorry. This is me on a beta blocker, it's pretty bad," jokes Seehorn in the 2026 Emmys clip above, as she takes to the stage to accept the Lead Actress in a Drama Series award for Pluribus.

"Thank you, Vince Gilligan, for giving me not only the role of a lifetime, but for creating sets where we all get to collaborate, and we are actually made to feel safe so we get better as artists."
