It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for. “Dancing with the Stars” Season 33 concludes tonight with an extended three-hour event that will end with a celeb and their pro partner receiving the Len Goodman Mirror Ball Trophy. Who will it be? Scroll down for our live blog with all the minute-by-minute developments and commentary throughout the night.
Somewhat surprisingly, no one was eliminated from the competition at the end of the “Semi-Finals,” so there are still five couples remaining in contention for the Len Goodman Mirror Ball Trophy: Super Bowl champion Danny Amendola and pro Witney Carson, “The Bachelor” star Joey Graziadei and pro Jenna Johnson, TV star Chandler Kinney and pro Brandon Armstrong, Olympic rugby player Ilona Maher and pro Alan Bersten, and Olympic gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik and pro Rylee Arnold.

“Dancing with the Stars” fans were (kinda) surprised at the end of last week’s “Semi-Finals” when Olympians Stephen Nedoroscik and Ilona Maher were in jeopardy only for it to be announced that no one was going to be eliminated. All five semifinalists, as it turns out, will be in the finals. That wasn’t the biggest shocker in the world, though. It’s exactly what happened last year in Season 32. Gold Derby editor Daniel Montgomery discussed that twist ending with contributors Jeffrey Kare and Cordell Martin. Watch the complete video slugfest above.
If they keep up these twists, “eventually they’re going to end up with like seven people in the finale and it’s going to be too much. Let’s make it an elite competition so that the top people actually get to the finale,” argued Montgomery. “Five is about the limit.”
Martin saw it coming “once they got to the results.

There’s a new frontrunner in Gold Derby’s Oscar odds for Best Director: Brady Corbet for “The Brutalist.”
The American filmmaker has broken his tie with Sean Baker (“Anora”) to claim the No. 1 position on our chart for the upcoming 2025 Oscars. Note that it’s still quite early in this awards season, and things could keep changing as our experts, editors, and users continue to update their predictions.
The A24 fictional drama centers around Adrien Brody‘s character László Tóth, a Hungarian-Jewish architect and Holocaust survivor who emigrates to the United States in the 1940s in the hopes of achieving the American Dream. While László is waiting for his wife (Felicity Jones) to join him, he starts working with his cousin (Alessandro Nivola) at a furniture store, and he eventually comes into contact with a wealthy industrialist (Guy Pearce).
This would be Corbet’s first career Oscar nomination, after...

“Dancing with the Stars” is close to the end of Season 33, but first the remaining couples will have to get through the “Semi-Finals” to earn a spot in the grand finale. Having somehow survived last week’s instant dance challenges, where they had to perform routines mere minutes after learning their music and dance styles, the celebs will now have to perform another two routines, though this time they had the full rehearsals week to prep both dances, so they might be breathing a relative sigh of relief. But the stakes are sky-high with the finale on the line. Scroll down for our live blog with all our minute-by-minute commentary as the night progresses.

Talk about popular! Buoyed by positive critics’ reviews and social media reactions, Ariana Grande (“Wicked”) has skyrocketed in Gold Derby’s Oscar odds for Best Supporting Actress in recent weeks.

The Best TV Comedy Actor race at the 2025 Golden Globes looks to be getting some fresh blood in the form of Brian Jordan Alvarez (“English Teacher”). He plays Evan Marquez on FX’s freshman comedy series that takes place at the fictional Morrison-Hensley High School. Alvarez has skyrocketed up to fifth place to win this category, compared to two months ago when he placed outside of Gold Derby’s predicted nominees.
Alvarez’s likely co-nominees, according to our Golden Globe predictions for Best TV Comedy Actor, are Jeremy Allen White (“The Bear”) at 18/5 odds, Steve Martin (“Only Murders in the Building”) at 9/2 odds, Martin Short (“Only Murders in the Building”) at 5/1 odds, Jason Segel (“Shrinking”) at 15/2 odds, and Vince Vaughn (“Bad Monkey”) at 10/1 odds.

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west – and RuPaul Charles always wins the Emmy for Best Reality Host. A victory for RuPaul for his iconic hit “RuPaul’s Drag Race” has literally become as dependable as the behavior of that big ball in the sky. Since 2016, in fact, he hasn’t lost, winning the trophy for the category eight consecutive times and gunning for a ninth straight this year. He has, in fact, never lost in the category. Will he keep his perfect record intact?
There is alas evidence that this could be the year he finally meets his match. The predictions in Gold Derby still favor RuPaul by a wide margin – but they’ve been wrong before. To get a better assessment, Gold Derby senior editors Denton Davidson, Daniel Montgomery and Marcus James Dixon and news and features editor Ray Richmond got together to slug it...

While most of the prediction thought and energy when forecasting the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards goes to the big-ticket honors for comedy, drama and limited series, there are no fewer than 99 additional categories for which statuettes will be handed out at the Creative Arts Emmys on September 7 and 8 at the Peacock Theater at L.A. Live. And because they had already talked themselves hoarse debating the merits of the categories included in The Big Emmy Show on September 15, Gold Derby senior editors Denton Davidson, Marcus James Dixon and Daniel Montgomery and news and features editor Ray Richmond decided it was time to lock horns in a slugfest examining some of the too-often-less-discussed nominees gunning for gold in the creative arts portion of the three-day Emmy extravaganza. Watch the quartet’s lively discussion above.

The 2024 Emmy nominations were announced Wednesday, July 17 and Gold Derby editors Denton Davidson, Marcus James Dixon, Daniel Montgomery and Ray Richmond were up early to discuss their reactions to surprises (or lack thereof), snubs and early front-runners. Leading the charge are “Shogun” in the drama categories, “The Bear” in comedy and “True Detective: Night Country” for limited series.
“It was a great morning for FX,” Davidson begins, noting “Shogun’s” 25 bids, followed by “The Bear” with 23, the most ever for a comedy series. Other big contenders this year are “Only Murders in the Building” with 21 nominations and “The Crown” with 18 — up from just six last year. “I really loved the final season season, especially the series finale. It was fantastic,” Dixon comments.

If there is any agreement among Emmy pundits this awards season, it’s the fact that perhaps the most competitive collection of categories surrounds the limited series genre, where an embarrassment of riches promises a dogfight among an abundant list of worthy nominees in Best Limited Series and the four limited/made-for-tv movie acting lineups. During a limited-focused slugfest debate in advance of the Emmy nominations announcement on July 17, Gold Derby senior editors Denton Davidson, Marcus James Dixon and Daniel Montgomery and news and features editor Ray Richmond were all in agreement that Gold Derby pacesetter “Baby Reindeer” is a worthy frontrunner that’s likely to ultimately take the top limited prize (assuming it is in fact nominated). But they were all over the map on how the rest of that category shaped up as well as how the performer slots were poised to shake out. While there are a...

Sunday night’s 96th Academy Awards signaled the end of a memorable Oscar season, inspiring Gold Derby senior editors Denton Davidson, Marcus James Dixon and Daniel Montgomery along with news and features editor Ray Richmond and Tariq Khan – prolific Gold Derby contributor and encyclopedic awards expert extraordinaire – to slug it out one last time over Zoom and mourn the categories that got away in their forecast. But before grieving their misguided last-minute prediction switches, the men discussed what they liked about the ceremony itself. Watch their colorful and opinionated discussion above.
Dixon loved the banter interplay of presenter duos Arnold Schwarzenegger/Danny DeVito and Emily Blunt/Ryan Gosling. Montgomery found it a “pretty solid” show that peaked for him in Jonathan Glazer’s acceptance speech after winning international film for “The Zone of Interest.” Davidson applauded director Mstyslav Chernov’s powerful speech after winning in Best Documentary Feature for “20 Days in Mariupol.

As the final days tick down to Sunday’s 96th Academy Awards, Gold Derby senior editors Denton Davidson, Marcus James Dixon and Daniel Montgomery, along with news and features editor Ray Richmond and Tariq Khan – regular Gold Derby contributor and encyclopedic awards expert extraordinaire – got together on Zoom to slug it out over their Oscar predictions in all 23 categories.
With an “Oppenheimer” steamroller forecast on nearly everyone’s radar, there was plenty of consensus among the guys, including the fact “Oppenheimer” is a lock for Best Picture and its director Christopher Nolan for Best Director. Also, they’re unanimous in picking Robert Downey Jr. in supporting actor for (ho-hum) “Oppenheimer” and Da’Vine Joy Randolph (“The Holdovers”) in supporting actress, both of whom have treated awards season as their personal plaything while sweeping up everything in sight. “It’s kind of Christopher Nolan’s fault that he made awards season so boring,...

While there remains plenty of suspense surrounding the SAG Awards film categories at the ceremony taking place at the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall this Saturday at 5 p.m. Pst/8 p.m. Est (streaming over Netflix), there is decidedly less drama when it comes to the TV categories. It’s simply a fact. At least, this is the way Gold Derby senior editors Denton Davidson, Daniel Montgomery and Marcus James Dixon, news and features editor Ray Richmond and encyclopedic awards expert extraordinaire Tariq Khan saw it during their SAG Awards TV category predictions slugfest this week. The consensus is that “Succession” will sweep the three TV drama categories, “The Bear” the three comedy categories and “Beef” the limited series/TV pair. There may be some non-“Bear” wiggle room in at least one category. More on that in a moment. Watch the editors’ colorful discussion above.

It’s been presumed for months now that the lead actress race in film categories at the various ceremonies was destined to be a two-way race between Emma Stone for “Poor Things” and Lily Gladstone for “Killers of the Flower Moon.” Lately, it’s been more of a one-way race, with Stone topping BAFTA, the Golden Globes and Choice Choice honors. But in a Screen Actors Guild Film Awards predictions slugfest this week in advance of Saturday’s ceremony, Gold Derby senior editors Denton Davidson, Marcus James Dixon and Daniel Montgomery and news and features editor Ray Richmond were asked to consider a third contender: Margot Robbie for “Barbie.” This is because they were joined by encyclopedic awards expert extraordinaire and regular Gold Derby contributor Tariq Khan, who made a convincing case that Robbie was poised for a massive upset based on his personal survey of some 500 SAG Awards voters.

What will the list of winners at this Sunday’s British British Academy of Film and Television Arts (better known by its acronym BAFTA) Film Awards look like? A lot like the forthcoming Academy Awards, predict Gold Derby senior editors Marcus James Dixon, Denton Davidson and Daniel Montgomery, news and features editor Ray Richmond and encyclopedic awards expert extraordinaire Tariq Khan.
During their lively debate this week, they both individually and collectively foresaw a coronation for “Oppenheimer” in the Best Picture and Best Director (Christopher Nolan) categories as well as in several acting and crafts lineups and numerous honors for “Poor Things”. Not that they were all in agreement/alignment. The discussion almost grew a little heated a few times. But it seems this is not a year when radical dissent dominates the predictions. Watch their colorful slugfest above.
