2020 Golden Globe Awards

Their were some dodgy choices but overall, Olivia Colman ("The Crown") was not even the best woman in The Crown Helena Bonham Carter stole that crown,she was fantastic. Chernobyl was amazing best drama of the year and so chilling to watch. really want to see Once Upon a Time in America now brads won. Irishman was not as good as viewing figures have you believe, C.G.I was so bad. Taron Egerton was great as Rocket man and even sung the music (bonus),he is a top actor these days. Eddie Murphy was not the star of his latest movie, Da'Vine Joy Randolph stole the show with her singing. Maridge story was an uninspiring story, even though the two stars acting was good, the story was pretty poor and she cheated on her husband with a stoner drop out (fingers count don't they?) and he cheater on her with a younger woman (he was winner but ended up crying). Laura Dern acting was not that great but she did manage to put makeup on and looked a lot better than her co star. 1917 looks promosing. Rick gervais cheered me up, he was like on fire, with top jokes or maybe just home truths. At least most people got the jokes apart from Tim Alen who still does not understand the joke.

Loved Rickie Gervais' parts. That's all I watched. Hilarious! He's the best.

As always every year before the big meal "The Oscars" I watch the appetizer that being "The Golden Globes", this year's edition the 77th one was okay and funny with blunt and outspoken Gervais as the host once again who was bleeped out many times as his tongue used foul words. Anyway many awards went as expected as most of the TV awards went to the streaming networks, however the mighty "Netflix" was shut out with "Hulu" and "Amazon" products and works being winners. "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" rained king with it winning best musical comedy, and the man Brad Pitt winning best supporting actor award, this gem looks like the "Oscar" front runner for best picture as the "Irishman" was shut out! Joaquin Phoenix rightfully won best actor in a drama for his slick cruel twisted origin take on "The Joker" . And mister nice guy Tom Hanks was honored and he got emotional, plus Ellen was honored the Carol Burnett award as she's a gal that does good kind things for people. A big surprise was war picture "1917" winning best drama. Overall good and tasty a good lead to the always main course "Academy Awards".

Why do they even invite con-artists like Gwyneth Paltrow? She should be shunned by Hollywood for selling lies and harming people's health with her fake fugazi Goop company.

Also, they absolutely BUTCHERED Joaquin Phoenix's speech by muting large parts of it... I mean, yeah sure, he dropped a few f-bombs, but just mute the f-bombs, DON'T MUTE HIS ENTIRE DAMN SPEECH! I had to search for a few minutes on google just to find the uncensored, unedited speech that he delivered.

Ricky's opening monolugue was good, but they gave him so little screen-time in-between the nominations that you hardly noticed that he was still there after his opening speech.

AND of the entire 3hour broadcast, a full hour of it was advertisements... I mean, come on! You wouldn't show ads in-between a 3hour movie, so why show ads in-between a 3hour live-broadcast?! Instead of showing ads, you could show wide-shots of the actors sitting at their tables, or show something backstage... that would actually boost your ratings (which btw, have been on the decline for 7years straight now). No wonder your ratings are declining year-on-year!

I can't complain too much about the structure but god it is long. 3 hours with commercials every award or few awards. I like to see some of the winners and this year, I thought there were some good choices. The best part of the show was Gervais' humor. It lessened some of the boringness.
