Tonight's Top Pick is Wicked: One Wonderful Night, the concert special intended to get a little more juice out of Wicked: Part I and presumably not completely take away any reason for seeing Wicked: For Good. A little bit ago, we talked about how the clock is ticking on Ariana Grande & Ethan Slater's relationship, and I imagine that there's a similar to-the-finish-line feeling with Ariana and Cynthia Erivo's sisterhood.
