Nerds everywhere rejoice, "Big Bang Theory" is on a roll.
Actress Mayim Bialik said she was "shocked" by her second consecutive Emmy nomination for her work in "The Big Bang Theory."
In a post for Jewish parenting website Kveller.com on Friday the "Big Bang Theory" star said it was an unexpected surprise.
"I am as shocked as if you told me that ["Big Bang Theory" co-creator] Chuck Lorre had been nominated for a Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Emmy," Bialik wrote. "Why am I so shocked? I don't know. I'll ask my therapist. I just am! I was certain I would not be nominated."
Bialik plays the role of Amy Farrah Fowler on the show. She is nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series.
The divorced mother of two added that now she has to focus on finding a dress.
Although Bialik is proud of her accomplishments she told People magazine earlier this year, she does not expose her sons ages 5 and 7 to that side of her personality.
"I don't show them television... I feel when they're closer to the age I was when I was in "Beaches", for example, I would love to show them what my life was like then, but there's so many other things about me that I think are more interesting, important and sometimes annoying to them. I think that's enough of an identity."
Bialik said when she learned about her nomination, her eyes "welled up."
Jane Krakow ski ("30 Rock"), Jane Lynch ("Glee"), Sofia Vergara ("Modern Family"), Julie Bowen ("Modern Family"), Merrit Wever ("Nurse Jackie") and Anna Chlumsky ("Veep") are also nominated in the same category.
Chlumsky, who plays Amy Brookheimer in "Veep" said she is proud to be nominated.
"I am proud as can be of everyone on this show. We have a marvelous time at work and to know people in our community are noticing that is the best kind of encouragement," the 32-year-old actress, who recently gave birth to a baby girl on Tuesday told E! Online. "I feel Individually, as well. Truly appreciative that folks dig my work."
The popular CBS show has eight nominations in total, including a nomination in the Outstanding Comedy category.
Do you think Bialik deserves to win an Emmy for her "Big Bang Theory" work?
