Nomination
The nomination, announced today, July 15, 2025, is for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for his captivating performance as Dr. Paul Rhoads in the second season of Apple TV+’s critically acclaimed series, Shrinking.
Ford’s portrayal of Dr. Rhoads, a seasoned therapist dealing with his own Parkinson’s diagnosis and a complicated personal life, has garnered significant praise for its depth, humor, and emotional resonance. Many critics and viewers alike felt he was ignored for the first season of Shrinking, making this long-awaited recognition even more satisfying.

His move to recurring television roles, including his powerful performance in 1923 (which, surprisingly, did not receive an Emmy nod this year), has allowed audiences to see a different side of his talent.
