What's on TV This Week: Emmy Awards and Fargo'
Briefly

This awards show was postponed from the fall because of actor and writer strikes, and now it is finally time for the television academy to hand out awards (by way of presenters including Jon Hamm, Quinta Brunson and Pedro Pascal). Because this is the 75th annual ceremony, distinguished shows from the past Cheers, All in the Family, Grey's Anatomy and Game of Thrones, among others will be celebrated with homages and cast reunions. It is looking like it will be a big night for Succession, whose 27 nominations are the most of any show. Anthony Anderson will host.
Since the 2022 remake of this film didn't take home the only award it was nominated for at this year's Golden Globes, maybe it's time to revisit the original. Tom Cruise stars as Maverick (his pilot name), an arrogant and reckless fighter pilot who is sent to Top Gun Naval Fighter Weapons School, where he develops an enemy (Iceman; Val Kilmer) and a crush (Kelly McGillis). The snappily edited sequences of battle and mock battle sweep us in and out of the cockpit, Walter Goodman wrote in his review for The New York Times. You can't always be sure exactly what's going on, but it's exciting anyhow.
