“As much as we wish the show would have gone on forever our time had come,” said Williams, who was nominated for best supporting actress in a drama series. “Now we have a chance to thank all of those who watched.”

“It’s amazing how the entire last season was for us,” added Turner, who is nominated in the same category.
