Eugene Levy thought the highlight of his Tuesday would be taking his car in for servicing B次元官网网址 until he arrived home and heard some B次元官网网址渟urrealB次元官网网址 and far more exciting news.

A publicist for B次元官网网址淪chittB次元官网网址檚 CreekB次元官网网址 had called to tell the Hamilton native that heB次元官网网址檇 just got an Emmy Award nomination for lead actor in a comedy series for playing patriarch Johnny Rose on the Ontario-shot show, which airs on CBC and Pop TV and is also on Netflix.

Then, as they spoke, came several more B次元官网网址淪chittB次元官网网址檚B次元官网网址 nominations: Toronto native Catherine OB次元官网网址橦ara, who plays matriarch Moira Rose, for lead actress in a comedy series; Debra Hanson and Darci Cheyne for contemporary costumes; and the entire show for best comedy series.

B次元官网网址淚 have to say, IB次元官网网址檓 somewhat surprised,B次元官网网址 Levy said in a phone interview from his Toronto home after the nominations were announced.

B次元官网网址淚 thought that we had a pretty good shot with Catherine, I thought that would have been our best shot. Maybe itB次元官网网址檚 just the Canadian in me where you think, B次元官网网址極h, weB次元官网网址檙e probably not going to get more than one, if we get one.B次元官网网址 But then they just kept rolling in.

B次元官网网址淚 think itB次元官网网址檚 pretty incredible ending up with four nominations on this show. And believe me, itB次元官网网址檚 not to say theyB次元官网网址檙e not well-deserved, because they are. I think itB次元官网网址檚 a pretty fantastic show that weB次元官网网址檙e doing here. But you just never think itB次元官网网址檚 actually going to get that kind of recognition.B次元官网网址

This is the first Emmy love for B次元官网网址淪chittB次元官网网址檚 Creek,B次元官网网址 which also stars showrunner Daniel Levy and Annie Murphy as a formerly wealthy family who now live in a motel in a small town they once bought as a joke.

The Levys share the nomination for best comedy series for being the co-creators of the half-hour show, which has become an international phenomenon and recently finished filming its sixth and final season.

B次元官网网址淎s I told my son Dan this morning, B次元官网网址楢ll the hard work and all the long hours that you put into the show have finally paid off in big dividends,B次元官网网址橞次元官网网址 said Levy, noting Dan was vacationing in Italy when the nominations were announced.

The showB次元官网网址檚 quirky and hilarious moments have inspired many social media memes, especially MoiraB次元官网网址檚 outlandish designer outfits, prima donna behaviour and dramatic elocution.

B次元官网网址淚t took a long time for the awareness factor on the show to kick in,B次元官网网址 Levy said.

B次元官网网址淚n the last year or so there has been a lot of awareness in terms of fans, in terms of viewers and certainly in terms of finally spreading across the entertainment industryB次元官网网址. But still, you just never think you quite have enough to make a dent on the Emmys scene.B次元官网网址

B次元官网网址淚 remember being with Catherine, with John Candy, with Marty (Short),B次元官网网址 Levy recalled.

B次元官网网址淚t was just a party. We were much younger, and the fact that a bunch of us little Canadian kids were down there at the party was kind of exciting. Now with B次元官网网址楽chittB次元官网网址檚 Creek,B次元官网网址 itB次元官网网址檚 nice to finally see all the hard work that youB次元官网网址檝e been doing pay off in terms of being on the same stage, so to speak, as all the top shows in the field.B次元官网网址
