Tonight's Top Pick is the belated 75th Primetime Emmy Awards, airing live on FOX. What do we think? Will Jason Sudekis three-peat? What about Jeremy Allen White? A bookend win for Rachel Brosnahan, or is it Natasha Lyonne's turn? Oh, and some actors in acknowledged dramatic series are nominated, too.
