The nominations for the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards have rolled in, and shining bright in the comedy category this year is Christina Applegate.
The actress, 51, was one of the names listed in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series category on Wednesday morning for her performance as Jen Harding in the Netflix series Dead to Me.
Christina took to social media soon after the nominations were announced to revel in the honor and share a message of gratitude.
She tweeted: "Thank you to the @TelevisionAcad @netflix @CBS and also the Hollywood critics and of course @GoldDerby for this incredible honor. I am humbled and grateful. It's been quite a ride. Thanks for the lift."
Her nomination represents the lone notice for the show this year, which has been nominated four times at the Emmys in years past, with two of those being for Christina, one in the same category for her co-star Linda Cardellini, and one for Outstanding Comedy Series in 2020.

However, she optimistically added that it was a high note for her to go out on, saying: ""This is what I had always dreamed of doing."
As she discussed the accommodations the cast and crew of the Netflix show made for her after her diagnosis, she continued: "We don't know what my future as an actress is going to be.
"How can I handle it? How can I go onto a set and call the shots of what I need as far as my boundaries, physically? I don't know who is going to be as loving and understanding as this group of people were."

She provided a candid take on seeing herself struggle while filming, adding: "I could see the excruciating pain I was in every day I was there and I didn’t want to relive it. I had to take it in little tiny doses but I think it is a beautiful piece of work."
