Offerman hinted at the possibility of a whole miniseries based on the decades-long connection between Bill and Frank in response to media inquiries. It could be a musical, he said.
People reported that Bartlett has not one but two nominations this year. He was nominated for outstanding supporting actor in 2023 for his role as real-life choreographer Nick De Noia in the Hulu limited series Welcome to Chippendales. Bartlett is a returning Emmy winner, having won a supporting actor trophy in 2022 for his breakthrough performance in the first season of The White Lotus. After splitting nominations with Making It co-host Amy Poehler on three occasions, Offerman received her fourth Emmy nomination this year.
