She really deserves to win. Her performance as Kim has been incredible.

Too white

[@bobdobbs69]

Take it home, Rhea!

[@jurgnobs1308]

yea, especially the acting in the episode after howards death was absolutely amazing. she seemed genuinely shocked. like, the way she was shakeing a bit while lalo told them what to do.

[@rando3086]

It is insane that Better Call Saul hasn’t won any acting Emmys, especially for her and Odenkirk.

[@VCA12]

Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?

[@uglybetty8747]

Exactly!

[@titanguy7316]

Last five seasons she and Bob, not to mention the supporting cast, has deserved it.

Rhea is so cute, it's so funny how bubbly she is in interviews but she's so serious as Kim.

[@fauxrowsdower7610]

if you listen to talking saul she is adorably chatty on that show and always talks about "yeah Kim's way more taciturn than me I can never shut the hell up" i love her

Rhea Seehorn is a HUUUUGE reason why the show works. I put off watching BCS until this year because I wasn't that interested in the idea of a Goodman spinoff but I was hooked because of compelling characters like Kim Wexler. She deserves to win.

[@patrickthomas8890]

She’s so believable as a highly skilled, no nonsense lawyer

[@dougdeveloper8850]

It's incredible how we can just discover so many gems in these actors/actresses later in their lives. I haven't even heard of Rhea Seehorn prior to Better Call Saul, and she probably had done everything a working actor could be doing and now she's on her way to hopefully becoming a household name and an Emmy winner.

[@Anvar2308]

The fact that Jonathan Banks didn't won an emmy for neither BCS nor Breaking Bad discredits the award so much imo.

[@pab1972]

Emmys don't work like that. They look at the depth of the character and Mike is more like an action film character set up by killing his son.

I LOVE that Rhea Seehorn is a little bit of a dork.
