Sharon Horgan

The 27th Annual Webby Awards is excited to honor Sharon Horgan as the 2023 Webby Best Actress for capturing the Internet’s attention with her acclaimed Apple TV+ show Bad Sisters, which she created, executive produced and stars in—as well as her for incredible career in comedy as a voice of radical self-awareness and razor sharp wit.

Comedian, executive producer, writer and actress Sharon Horgan is one of the Internet’s most-beloved talents for a reason. Since her 2006 breakthrough Pulling through her comedy Divorce, Sharon Horgan dazzled viewers worldwide with her signature dark humor, eviscerating self-awareness, and propensity to say the quiet part out loud. Her latest creation, Bad Sisters on Apple TV+, is a continuation of the style we’ve come to know and love. Adapted from a Belgian limited series, Bad Sisters takes streaming audiences and critics on a hilarious, ten-episode journey of four siblings—the Garvey sisters—attempting to kill a somewhat innocent man. In her role as eldest sister Eva Garvey, Sharon Horgan brings strength to her portrayal as a protective sister who comes into conflict with her younger sister, Grace’s abusive ex-husband. More than a who-done-it tale, Bad Sisters draws viewers in with not only its incredible cinematography of Ireland, but also its incredibly witty dialogue, all thanks to Sharon Horgan’s talent.

For her wondrous work and performance in Bad Sisters, and for captivating digital audiences through her inimitable comedic style, it is our honor to recognize Sharon Horgan as the 2023 Webby Best Actress.
