An absolutely stacked category but man did his performance deserve that Emmy

[@RyanM268]

I knew for sure that he will win an Emmy after watching the show! His performance was so amazing, raw, and authentic!

[@shelbybryant6734]

I’m so happy for him! What a big night for baby reindeer

[@debrajames3869]

Very well deserved! Loved that series.

[@kpsphoto4169]

I’m so happy for Richard Gadd. His success is an inspiration to anyone who has been bullied.

*stalked and assaulted

[@miguelrosado6348]

Underdog until the end. He won win a category stacked with stars and great performances. The honesty of his performance with all the anger and brokeness is unmatchable. This guy did something really special.

[@user-er2pi7rh1f]

This feels so right, congratulations to Richard Gadd! So well deserved!

[@adolfopena7358]

This show really did come out of nowhere.

[@bl00dygoodtimes_]

this was so, so deserved and so were all the other emmys won by the show and cast

[@SamSchuring]

Richard Gadd won one for starring in “Baby Reindeer” and one for writing.

[@lady_g406]

I was silently rooting for Richard and the cast to win right after watching Baby Reindeer. One of the best, jolting series I've seen in my life.

[@gabifgt]

this man is a fucking genius. absolutely deserved to win!!! 🎉

[@GeoffreyAymer]

Had the pleasure of working with him on a stage show he wrote and performed in 10 years ago. It was a really inventive show--very dark comedy and I got to play quite a dark character myself which doesn't often happen. It was a lot of fun and he was great to work with. Very talented and a decent guy. Really pleased for him.

[@vintagecherries]

Deserved it. He put his whole trauma and had the guts to share it with the world. And then re-acted it.

[@Jumbaride]

Gadd and Bomer knocked it out of the park.

[@whatiwasgoingtosay]

I’ve never been so happy for somebody I’ll never meet.

[@hecklephalange8640]

Andrew scott was so good in Ripley, such an underrated series, anyway still happy for richard🎉

[@forbeauty8539]

We got a picture with him after the grammy he was waiting for his driver to pick him up, such a nice man!! Also loved the movie baby reindeer

[@k3vvisntsmart]

[@user-er2pi7rh1f]

[@fadhilramadhani1847]

How is there no mention of THE DENISE HEMPHILL from Scream Queens, another legendary law enforcement officer played by Niecy? lol

[@cynthia4326]

GOOD for Richard!

[@Dhiraj.Kumar96]

Andrew Scott is well deserved.❤

[@beqamarsagishvili6988]

Well deserved ❤

[@hydrogenroar]

Tom Hollander as Capote was astounding but Gadd's win was gratifying.

[@rafininjatv92]

This was my favorite acting category each performances so bold and memorable.

[@nahin2974]

So well deserved!!

[@EddieLensweiger]

this category is insanely crowded with great performances! everybody's winner! i was rooting for Tom Hollander, a solid perfect impersonation of Truman capote.

[@sophieharbers8953]

I am so happy for Richard Gadd! His performance in Baby Reindeer was absolutely perfect. but I was thinking about the speech his character gave in one of the last episodes of baby Reindeer...the speech in the theater where he was brutally honest and revealed all his insecurities and vulnerabilities to the audience, and talked about his abuse. In this speech, his character also talked about "fame" and "success", that he wanted become famous to get recognition, not to feel judged, and make him feel less hateful about himself (boost his self esteem). As his character is based on Richard Gadd's own experiences, I think that this bit might also apply to Richard. I would like to ask him: Now that in real life he has gained all this recognition, how did it change him? did it really make him more happy as he expected?? I really hope so, he deserves this! I am just curious:)!

[@amarildogomes9759]

So well deserved!

[@fran7759]

Well deserved; Baby Reindeer best of the year. So different, so smack you in the face and keep you hooked until the end.

[@lanaturner5435]

That is a really accurate statement. I couldn't stop watching.

[@danielleryan196]

I have to take a klonopin before watching Baby Reindeer so you know it's good

[@rebeccadsouza9128]

[@daynamarie54]

[@zcvxs]

[@futorenkin6838]

[@gorio9176]

4 gay/bisexual/queer characters, 1 Straight! Amazing

[@mali-qt3ze]

YESS!

[@teeeesh4420]

A TV archetype everyone agrees on lollll

[@robertmiller7772]

baby reindeer never heard of it

[@Iissllee690]

If he is playing himself, is it really acting?

[@whatiwasgoingtosay]

He played a version of himself from 10 years ago, before loads of therapy and healing time. For that, he had to dig up old wounds and put himself back in a very dark place. So, yeah, that’s acting. It’s psychological recall instead of pretending, but it’s no different than when an actor recalls a sad time in order to make themselves cry.
