I knew Lip would do bigger things when he grew up

[Syl-Ph]

He even acts like Carmy here. It's why we adore him and root for him so much

[nancymurphy]

He's the freaking best! Awesome!!!!

[rngtcginc]

Why they mute him saying Jesus Christ? Let the man be proud and share what has inspired him.

Great for him but it’s infuriating it’s called a comedy, the show is serious

Yes great for him… he’s a great actor and I love this show but it’s NOT a comedy!! I can absolutely see why everyone is soo upset that this series is in the “comedy” category for the second year in a row. They would not have all won if it was put in the correct category. Fact. Last year after they won a reporter asked him about him posing in his underwear for a huge ad billboard..He and the entire cast of bear jumped all over that poor reporter. None of them have a sense of humor. It’s truly sad for all the people and all the shows that were truly comical.
