Creator David E. Kelley praised director Jean-Marc Vallee, "He took this material into his heart, and more importantly he delivered it from his heart, elevating every page, every performance." He added before passing the trophy to star and producer Witherspoon, "We're all so grateful."
"I wanna thank everyone who broke their silence this year and spoke up about abuse and harassment. You are so brave, and hopefully shows like this more will be made. So people out there who're feeling silenced by harassment, discrimination, abuse, time is up. We see you, we hear you, and we will tell your stories," Witherspoon said.
