FYI, These People Already Won Emmys This Year
ICYMI, Meryl Streep now has three Emmy Awards.
The Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony will be airing on CBS on Sunday, Sept. 17, hosted by Stephen Colbert.

So if you saw, for example, Lauren Graham congratulating her onscreen daughter Alexis Bledel for Emmy her win over this past weekend, you might've been confused.
