Kristen Johnston wins 1999 Emmy Award for Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series

Kristen Johnston wins the 1999 Emmy Award for Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her performance as Sally Solomon in 3rd Rock from the Sun.

[@makeithurtful]

There could never ever be a show that was so ridiculously funny as 3rd rock, so amazing to rewatch

[@Sbannmarie298]

Love watching it on You Tube

[@empireentertainmentevents1353]

Kristen Johnston deserves more recognition. Her Acting is perfect in 3rd rock. Her role as Sally fits her like a glove fits a hand. all the other cats are also equally brilliant and they have such a strong chemistry on screen which is not easy to find. Well done to the Producer and Director for setting the bar so high in TV sitcom History that has never been surpassed ever since by any other TV sitcom series.

[@AllenMQuinn]

Kristen is such an underrated comedy actress. She deserved both of her Emmy's hands down. Only shame is I wish Jane Curtin had gotten a nomination and win. She was excellent too

[@sebhma]

+Lexi Kiwi wow you're really everywhere

[@sangria-margarita]

She was mediocre

[@kendallrivers1119]

Agreed! Jane, Kristen, Elmarie, Simba and Jan Hooks are all such stellar comic actresses!

[@tj.espygil4544]

Jane Curtin did however win two Emmys for lead actress in a TV comedy for "Kate and Allie".

[@spoyledbratt]

Very strong nominees that year.

[@kendallrivers1119]

And two years later Doris would win the first of her 4 emmys! :)

[@KikiLoc1485]

She was amongst some heavy hitters nominated that year! She is such an underrated actress. “3rd Rock From The Sun” was and still is my favorite top 5 shows from the 90’s. I still watch it now. ❤️ Love you Kristen! 🌹 Oh let’s not forget her hair! She can give Cindy Crawford a run for her money for best hair.

[@vodkatonyq]

How is she underrated when she won TWO Emmys for 3rd Rock?

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

She was light years ahead of her time with that performance.

[@kendallrivers1119]

Kristen Johnson is incredible! Simply incredible! One of the most naturally funny and talented actresses ever! Truly one of the all time funniest women including Lucille Ball, Carol Burnett, Jane Curtain, Patricia Heaton, Marla Gibbs, Doris Roberts, Leah Remini, Julia Louis Dreyfuss, Vicki Lawrence, Anna Maria Horsford, and all four Golden Girls.

[@ryannicholls8985]

Such a damn good show it should of never been cancelled!

"should of". Are you an alien? Or just a dumb earthling?

[@festus569]

Kristen Johnston deserved to win. She was the funniest in 3rd Rock from the Sun.

[@AllenMQuinn]

Takes a lot to upstage Lithgow and she did it many times.

[@ian12346]

Just bought the series on dvd. I watched it when it aired, I was a teenager. I seriously don’t remember it being this funny, so much fun to watch in 2021, lol. 😁🤘

[@foccha]

Aww that hug she gave to Michael.

[@אילייןלוי]

This comedy is the greatest thing on telly!..Sally you're the greatest!!..♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@normanfawley7379]

I'm watching re-runs now ! Bloody funny ! Like Fawlty Tower's,timeless ageless comedy, only comes along once in a while !

[@niqulusviii987]

Just think, Kristen, Lucy, Doris and Lisa all up against each other. Whew!

[@linshanhsiang]

I can remember exactly when I realized how good an actress she is. When Harry was going on about being able to do her job and she kind of lunged at him and said "and just what IS your job, Harry""with such total conviction and I went ,"Wow"!

[@stipV]

That show would have been so fun to work on lol

[@friedaclaxton5950]

This is too adorable.

[@Giane19h]

im here bc of her role in the show mom , she is amazing in it she need to get a 3ed emmey

[@drabnerd]

I agree she’s great on Mom!

[@kendallrivers1119]

She had a much better character on 3rd Rock and 3rd Rock is the better, much funnier show too in my opinion.

[@ZeldasFinalFantasy]

John was so happy for her

[@jhengleone]

Seeing Matt Leblanc cheering for Lisa Kudrow makes me really happy. I hope the emmys would have given Lisa Kudrow another Emmy for her fabulous performance in Friends.

[@sandhyabhalerao1944]

Yeah. They did.

[@goudagirl6095]

This was such a golden era of modern comedy/sitcoms. Miss it.

[@jmj7599]

that was so cool, what a classy, beautiful person!!

[@TheBoxingCannabyte]

I think John Lithgow, like Stan Lee, spends so much time just being happy with life that he just doesn't age. He's SO fuckin' happy for Kristen right now and it just puts a big smile on my face :D I love watching these old awards, never thought I would. I remember all of this but, being born in '86, I was BARELY Joseph Gordon-Levitt's demographic, let alone Lithgow's (yet I was able to start a pen-pal corrsepondance with him that goes to this day, though mainly via e-mail and twitter these days)

[@zoilalulu3798]

Lived your comment. John Lithgow is a genius. 3rd Rock was a brilliantly unique show. I still watch it to this day and absolutely love it.

[@zoilalulu3798]

***** Loved*

[@TomGallagherSuperboyBeyond]

Funny u mentioned Stan Lee when Agent Coulson is sitting next to Kristen Johnston.

[@cj-seejay-cj-seejay]

You're John Lithgow's penpal??????

[@rc6071]

That was a time when all the tv shows were great didn't matter which one All Were Great no tv show now comes close to it today

[@jamesgordon6483]

Young Sheldon is pretty good. Give it a try.

[@MrKaywyn]

I love that John Lithgow is applauding.

[@JulieEKnelldreamwithjulie]

Kristen is amazing - she has passionately worked to build the first sober school for teens in NYC - if you'd like to help just go to slam nyc . org - you can even do your OWN fundraiser there by clicking on Crowdrise :) !!! Let's all do it!

[@tudorjason]

Johnston was stunning back then!

[@ryder-hunk9701]

She is so tall with divine face 😍 love you ❣️

[@iammethatisall3266]

Congratulations Lieutenant

[@robertprady885]

one of my favs of all time

[@MATILDANATURALSOAP]

If Kristen Johnston didn't win this Emmy award, it should have go to Wendie Malick for Just Shoot Me!

[@gojewla]

She was awesome in that show.

[@jwelch5742]

Kristen Johnston has great acting in 3rd Rock from the Sun: Seasons 2 and 4.

[@SurahOnline]

*Haha. John's face expressions lol*

[@lowkeyhobbiesandinterests9336]

She deserves it. Her character was so real.

[@jennyanthony8315]

Woah I am seeing her now on Mom's season 6 and 7 as Tammy Diffendorf

[@RSully94]

Congrats to Kristen but I'm bummed Lisa lost this one, because she submitted her best episodes from that season. Lisa totally deserved to win as well :(

[@colinafobe2152]

love her transformation throughout the show, beating up Mark Hamill, being diva, being punk outlaw, grownup child ballerina, being Dick, vamp girl, practical Sally, shoe-addict, I want a soap, give me the soap, gazing as Dr. Albright does... love her as Sally Solomon

[@sofiayoung8867]

she deserve more

[@theenforcer4113]

I'm happy Kirsten won she was always my favorite. I love her and Wayne together. very very sad when she and Wayne said good bye in the series finale show.

[@drabnerd]

Aww John tried to hug her lol

[@jarredkennedy6131]

She will ALWAYS be Sally to me.

[@bobcat4567]

Лучше Салли нет никого❤❤❤

[@johnnyrainbow50]

Ivanna Humpalot

[@kraiglarson3144]

s she is hilarious!!!

[@MrBaddel77]

do you have kristen's first win?

[@Crunkboy415]

Clark Gregg is next to her. Did they date before he got with Jennifer Gray?

[@deepakraj5352]

Victoria chase would have killed the competition . literally 😂

[@rc....]

She was supporting??? She was definitely more than supporting

[@GoggledAgog]

Supporting the High Commander

[@bossfan49]

She's supporting that dress! DAMN!!

[@yuothineyesasian]

I like how much taller she is than Fox.

[@joeconcepts5552]

Ha ha, I know she has heels on and he's short, but she makes Michael J. Fox look 4 foot 2 here.

[@sangria-margarita]

Poor Michael

[@sherryhesner5940]

😘

[@ellaalessi5143]

Love wendie malick

[@langdonalger9219]

French Stewart is a genius?

[@alexaraya2018]

wait , is that the dude from S.h.e.i.l.d next to her?

[@FairyFellersMasterStroke]

She is a better version of Courtney Love.

[@FiveSigma72]

True but then again, so is my cat.

[@icemeoutlikeelsa]

Lucy Liu was in a sitcom???

[@drabnerd]

Ally McBeal

[@Myaccisbanned]

Yeah she was a real firey mean character in the show

[@gojewla]

I’m pretty sure that’s how she became famous. Later she started showing up in movies.

[@llama10.75]

0:44

[@p5rsona]

Wth was Brad doing there lol

[@scottgross9337]

I'm glad Friends didn't win.

[@angrycat225]

1:45 seconds, lol hilarious

[@donkeygospel6]

Johnston is great but for that season, the winner should've been Lucy Liu, or for the episode submissions, the winner should've been Lisa Kudrow.

[@superyahoobrothers]

Lisa Kudrow as Supporting Actress i wouldve been so pissed off if i was in her place

[@biljons]

all six of them were always nominated as the supporting actors, because they agreed that there were no leads. ;)

[@ggfanjase]

Lisa Kudrow or Lucy Liu tho.

[@annemai7081]

Lisa Kudrow should have won

[@jasonscott4366]

Lucy liu was better

[@tjmmcd1]

Michael J.Fox does a terrible acting job by pretending to have Parkinson's disease, where people have tics and tremors. No Mr. Fox, people with Parkinson's DO NOT move their heads around like some goofy looking Stevie Wonder. More utter nonsense is the fact that they give a best supporting ACTRESS role to Kristen Johnston; a transgendered man. (lol) You'd figure women would be really pissed-off about the fact that Hollywood hires tg men for all the female movie and TV roles.

[@HoldenNY22]

Tpm Mc- Besides the fact that she is very tall, do you have any proof that she is a Transgendered Man?

[@mythra7174]

My uncle's mother and my godmother both had Parkinson's and YES their heads moved. Each person can be affected a little differently (my uncle's mother could never keep still). He's not acting. Why the hell would he be? That's ridiculous. And what the hell makes you think Kristen is transgendered? Just because she's not a petite little Barbie doll?
