Sharon Horgan (‘Bad Sisters’): Emmys 2023 episode submission revealed

Gold Derby can exclusively reveal that Sharon Horgan is entering the “Bad Sisters” episode “Saving Grace” as her 2023 Emmy Award submission for Best Drama Actress. “Saving Grace” aired on October 14, 2022, and is the 10th and final episode of the Apple TV+ show’s first season.

In “Saving Grace,” the season-long mystery of who killed John Paul (Claes Bang) is revealed and the Garvey sisters — led by Eva (Horgan) — start to look toward the future. The episode was written by Horgan (one of four Season 1 episodes she either wrote or co-wrote) and directed by Rebecca Gatward.

Horgan is a double 2023 Emmy Award nominee thanks to “Bad Sisters.” In addition to her nomination for Best Drama Actress, Horgan also received a writing nomination for “The Prick,” the drama’s pilot episode. The actress and writer also co-created the series.  Previously, Horgan was an Emmy nominee in 2016 for writing the comedy series “Catastrophe.”

For this 2023 contest, Horgan is competing against Melanie Lynskey (“Yellowjackets”), Elisabeth Moss (“The Handmaid’s Tale”), Bella Ramsey (“The Last of Us”), Keri Russell (“The Diplomat”), and Sarah Snook (“Succession”). Last year’s category winner, Zendaya for “Euphoria,” was not eligible for a nomination in 2023.

“Bad Sisters” received four 2023 Emmy Award nominations for its first season.
