My Take

Jennifer Robertson's Jocelyn Schitt is, for me, the secret heart of Schitt's Creek. The Roses got the showcase arcs, but Jocelyn embodied the town's unglamorous decency, the very thing the whole series was actually about, and Robertson played it without a single false note. Her Screen Actors Guild Award felt like overdue recognition for the art of the perfect supporting performance. Knowing she also writes for television explains a lot: there is an economy to her comedy, a sense of exactly how much a moment needs and no more. Canada keeps producing comedians like this, and I keep being grateful.
