It’s almost about that time! This evening, Jeff Bridges, Quinta Brunson, Jeremy Strong, Ali Wong and many other television stars will pile into their seats at the Peacock Theater for the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards. Throughout the night, Anthony Anderson will steer the ship, telling jokes and introducing presenters. Also, several reunions are expected to occur throughout the night, including the reuniting of Sopranos and Martin cast members. With that said, everyone will be watching to see who actually walks away with the night’s most coveted honors. Ahead of the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards, several critics from around the world have offered their predictions for the biggest night in U.S. television.
