As Hollywood awaits with bated breath to hear how NBC and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association will proceed with the Golden Globes on Jan. 13, rumors are rampant that the Peacock is on the verge of announcing some sort of unique programming strategy that will allow them to broadcast something associated with the annual kudofest — just not the actual ceremony from the Beverly Hilton ballroom, the one that actors have vowed to boycott if the WGA pickets. One scenario making the rounds is that NBC will make a night of it by airing a special Dateline at 7 p.m., followed by a retrospective on past Globes ceremonies at 8 p.m., and then a live press conference at 9 p.m. announcing the winners. The night would end with special programming from Access Hollywood and its coverage of the Globe parties — assuming there will be any. Developing….

Hope the WGA strike goes on FOREVER!! That will change the face of television, so that we have more family-oriented game shows, documentaries, and reality TV, and get rid of award shows, endless estrogen dramas, and poor excuses for “comedies”. Please, Please, PLEASE – WGA – STAY ON STRIKE!!
this really sucks….i wanna see daniel day-lewis and hugh laurie accept their awards LIVE! this strike is probably not going to accomplish anything anyway…
Who cares? The movies this year are barely known to anyone yet, until they are released on dvd. And also: about the strike…Boring. I don’t care, and neither does most of America. These people are WAY overpaid anyhow, and even educators don’t make as much as they do on their silly films, etc. Plus most of the movies are written by boneheads. So who cares? And can I get paid for writing this, please? If not, I go on strike…
J-If that’s what television ends up as, you can have it.
I am interested in the best drama award. I saw No Country For Old Men and There Will Be Blood last week. Both are well done movies with plenty of violence and interesting endings. Just tell me who wins. No need for the ceremonies or the red carpet hoopla.
I just wish they could simply show the winners accepting the awards, saying their speeches, and that’s it. No lame jokes or any of that crap. No need for writing. Just a complete simplification of the award show process, which would make it a million times better. I always enjoy the speeches, especially Hugh Laurie’s. I like a lot of the nominees this year, which really sucks. I just hope this strike ends soon. As much as I’d like to cut back on TV, there are many good shows on right now, and I want as little reality TV as possible.
Here’s a suggestion for NBC: like the ending credits of a movie, take a few minutes to air the nominees for each category, then the winners, against a black screen, for a total of 5 minutes from your programming schedule. Do this so as to prevent the embarrassingly low ratings your show would otherwise have if no stars appear and you go ahead and air it. NO ONE WILL WATCH!
Or go ahead and have egg on your face the next morning.
COME TO SOME SORT OF AGREEMENT, YOU MORONS! You’re losing out on the press coverage for the winning projects as well as future projects and earning a lot of bad blood.
I just read some of these comments and all of you are forgetting that by making TV all reality, game shows, and documentaries will put millions of actor’s, writers, directors out of work! How can you think that reality TV is worth looking at? It has become more fake over the years then real!
Television like the movies should be an escape from all the problems in the world called reality!
