“Before we did the pilot, I went to the Institute of Culinary Education in Pasadena,” he toldW. “That’s where I got to know Ayo — we were getting to know one another while cooking, which was nice, since so much of the way Sydney and Carmy communicate [with] one another is through cooking.”

After the 78-year-oldEmmy winner’s character nearly died in the season 3 finale, even he didn’t know how things would turn out as the series drew to a close.
“I’m a short Jew, I’m always nervous,” theHappy Daysalum toldVulture. “The first question I ask Bill Hader at the beginning of every season is, ‘Am I dead? Are you killing me?‘He laughs and goes, ‘No!‘But of course there are eight episodes — any one of which can be my demise.”Barryreceived a total of 11 Emmy nominations in 2023, including recognition for Hader and Winkler, as well supporting actorAnthony Carrigan.

Amazon Freevee’sJury Dutytold the story of a mock jury selection and trial — except real-life jurorRonald Gladdendidn’t realize the case and jury were completely fake.
“Months and months down the road after this I was still getting hit with things like,Oh wow, was that staged, was that fake, was that an actor?" Gladdentold PEOPLEin April. “It took months for me to come to the realization that this actually happened and to accept it.”
The rest of the jury consisted of actors, includingJames Marsden, who played an over-the-top caricature of himself.“It was so fun to play against the backdrop of one of the greatest equalizing experiences we have as Americans,” Marsden, 50, said toThe Hollywood Reporter. “Nobody gives a s— who you are at jury duty — you’re just one of the rest of us.
Jury Dutyreceived a total of four 2023 Emmy nominations, including a nod for Marsden in the supporting actor category.

Thefifth and final seasonof Prime Video’sThe Marvelous Mrs. Maiselclosed out the story of Miriam “Midge” Maisel (Rachel Brosnahan) and her rising comedy career after divorcing her husband and father of her two kids (Michael Zegen).
“The hardest thing was moving just a couple of weeks after we wrapped into this play,The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window,that I was doing at BAM,” Brosnahan, 33, told PEOPLE in April of life after Maisel. “I realized how much, physically, [Midge] was a part of me that I didn’t realize it’s hard to let go of that fast-paced dialogue.”
Maiselended with Midge achieving fame, but compromising relationships along the way, including her friendship with her manager Susie Myerson (Alex Borstein).
“She achieved what she wanted to achieve,” Borestein, 52, toldEntertainment Weeklyof her character’s conclusion. “What she said in the pilot was, ‘I don’t mind being alone, I just do not wanna be insignificant.’ And she was able to do that. Not many people are. She has Midge still, in a way. Midge is still in her life and still there. In many ways, she got what exactly what she wanted.”

“I only did the Boy Scouts for a little bit, but I always loved that notion of: leave the campsite better than you found it,” Sudeikis, 48, toldThe Guardianof Ted Lasso’s future. “So if Ted Lasso is the AmericanMary Poppins, he wants to leave the Banks kids, and probably most importantly Mr. Banks, with the appreciation of flying a kite. And what I would wish for anyone involved with the show is: don’t cry that it’s over, but smile that it happened.”
Even some of the show’sstars don’t knowaboutTed Lasso’s future.
