You may know (or I’m sure you’ve at least heard from a friend of a friend of a friend) the Golden Globes were on this past Sunday, January 6^th. You may not have paid attention for longer than 10 minutes, or watched at all, which is completely understandable as some of these awards shows can trail on and on (especially when there are no musical interludes like those of the Oscar and Tony Awards). However, in my experience it has proved necessary to have a basic of knowledge of where shows and films stand after last Sunday, no matter how much you care for or agree with the results.

Whether or not the following (very long list) of winners and losers mean a lot to you, at least you’ll have something new to discuss in conversation…

If you got this far than you witnessed a whole lot of talent that for one night this year (that is until the Oscar and Emmy Awards) sat in a room together in awe of each other’s work. The night was filled with ups and downs as actors and actresses alike fumbled through announcements and jokes that just missed. However, it is an honor to witness such hardworking first time nominees, as well as those who have been in the business far longer than I’ve been alive for, be recognized for what they do each day. Just think, without that night we may never have seen the first Asian American host of the Golden Globes or watched Maya Rudolph finally propose to Amy Poehler. Sometimes it’s hard to think about everything they do because it is so far out of the ordinary compared to our own lives, but month after month they take to the screen (both big and small) to interest, impress and inspire us.
