Tyler James Williams has earned his third Emmy nomination for his role as the no nonsense but still gentle first grade teacher Gregory Eddie on ABC’s Abbott Elementary.

Last year, he watched as nominations were announced live from the Hudson River in New York, but this year he tells Deadline he was at his home in Los Angeles.

Has he kept his ritualistic approach since his repeat nominations have rolled in, you ask? Keeping cool and calm … maybe a little too calm. “Every year, I try to have a ritual of some kind, because it’s something that as an actor who’s been here for a long time, and it’s been a road getting here, I just like to sit in gratitude for a minute.

So, every year, I roll a joint,” the actor said with a laugh. “I find a view and then I wait to see if I get a call from my agent.” In addition to Williams’ recognition for Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series, Abbott Elementary garnered nine nominations Wednesday morning, including Outstanding Comedy Series for the third consecutive year.
