66th Annual Golden Globe Awards Blog Live

11:45PM: Thanks to everyone who stopped by tonight’s Golden Globe Awards Live Blog. Before we call it a night, sleep on this. With SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE opening in India next week. What are the odds the entire county has already seen it thanks to the proliferation of pirated DVDs and BitTorrent?

11:02PM: NBC completely drops the ball as whomever accepted the award for SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE totally drops the F-Bomb!

11:00PM: And at the stroke of 11PM, SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE wins a much deserved statuette for Best Motion Picture Drama.

10:57PM: Mickey Rourke wins for Best Actor in Motion Picture Drama and thanks his dogs saying, “Sometimes when a man’s alone, all you got is your dog” Never one to pass up an opportunity to shamelessly pimp my dog, here’s a peak at the TV Addict’s adorable Goldendoodle ‘Mac’.

10:49PM: Twitter friend @BradInToronto wonders, “if Elisabeth Moss is giving Jeremy Piven dirty looks from the stage.”

10:46PM: MAD MEN finally slays the HBO juggernaut winning the Globe for Best Television Drama. Matthew Weiner gives a fairly uninspiring speech. But on the plus side, his price tag just shot up in the season three negotiations between himself, Lionsgate and AMC.

10:40PM: Shocker! Kate Winslet wins a second Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Drama for REVOLUTIONARY ROAD. Who’s the king of the world now?

10:30PM: We’re going to have to disagree with Salma Hayek and Sandra Bullock who most definitely do not think presentor Sasha Baron Cohen is funny. VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA wins the Golden Globe for Best Comedy in a Motion Picture Comedy or Musical.

10:20PM: Colin Farrell wins a Best Actor in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy statuette for IN BRUGES.

10:14PM: Danny Boyle wins a Best Director “GG” (as he very affectionally calls the Golden Globes) for SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE.

10:01PM: Stephen Spielberg gets the Cecil B. DeMille Award and this TV Addict gets a blogging break. Phew.


9:48PM: Could Tina Fey have looked any less surprised to win her statue for Best Actress in a Television Comedy or Musical? How much do you wanna bet that she’d trade in her umpteenth award for a few million more viewers?

9:45PM: A. R. Rahman wins for Best Original Score for SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE.

9:35PM: 30 ROCK walks away with a well-deserved Best Comedy in a Television Golden Globe… while Tracy Morgan shoots down any chance of a future nomination by showing around 15 million viewers that when he ‘plays’ Tracy Jordan as an inebriated incoherent buffoon, he’s not acting (Not that there’s anything wrong with that.)

9:31PM: Paul Giamatti wins Best Actor in a Television Movie or Mini-Series Drama for JOHN ADAMS. We can barely contain our excitement.

9:28PM: Is Renee Zellweger dressed more like Cruella de Vil or a thin Ursula from THE LITTLE MERMAID?

9:21PM: Alec Baldwin wins for Best Actor in a Television Comedy or Musical and mentions that he feels old because he used to give Rumor Willis juices box on the set of his movies. Awkward silence, proving once again who the real heroes are, 30 ROCK’s writers.

9:20PM: Simon Beaufoy wins a Best Adapted Screenplay statuette for SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE. One of this TV Addict’s Top 5 Movies of the year in case you’re wondering.

9:19PM: Who invited Ben Silverman and his life partner friend?

9:11PM: Laura Linney walks away with a Best Actress in a Television Movie or Mini-Series statuette for JOHN ADAMS.

9:08PM: Wait a second… Lauren Dern and Laura Linney are not the same person!

9:01PM: Hilarious comment shout-out from The Televixen “Drew Barrymore looks emaciated IMO. Give the girl a hot fudge sundae!”

8:58PM: Heath Ledger wins for Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture, gets a rousing standing ovation. Classy.

8:56PM: As expected, JOHN ADAMS wins an Emmy for Best Television Movie or Mini-Series.

8:51PM: No, that’s not an Amy Whinehouse impersonator (Thanks reader Tim G. for the line). It’s Sally Hawkins who just won Best Actress in a Motion Picture Comedy or Musical for HAPPY-GO-LUCKY… crickets… who saw it?

8:39PM: Is there an award show the Jonas Brothers don’t attend? Here they are presenting for Best Animated Feature which WALL•E deservingly wins.

8:37PM: Ricky Gervais to Kate Winslet, “I told you… do a Holocaust movie…” If only GHOST TOWN were so funny.

8:32PM: HBO, err… we mean Anna Paquin wins for Best Actress in a Television Series Drama for TRUE BLOOD.

8:31PM: New Spock and Kirk walk on stage to present. Cue Nerd Orgasm.

8:29PM: Gabriel Byrne robs Michael C. Hall and John Hamm for Best Actor in a Television Series Drama. Begging the question… what incriminating photos does HBO have on The Hollywood Foreign Press.

8:29PM: Raise your hand if your just a little creeped out that Michael C. Hall is now married to his television Sister Jennifer Carpenter.

8:18PM: Laura Dern wins for Best Supporting Actress in a Television Series, Movie and/or Mini-series… and judging by how long it took her to walk up to the podium, it’s a pretty big shocker.

8:16PM: Tom Wilkinson wins for Best Supporting Actor in a Television Series, Movie or Mini-Series proving once again how ridiculous it is that these actors all being clumped together makes no sense. That, or I’m simply bitter that Neil Patrick Harris was robbed. I mean hello? Did the voters not see NPH host SNL last night?

8:14PM: How wrong is it that Demi Moore looks one hundred times hotter (not to mention one thousand times younger) than daughter Rumor Willis?

8:08PM: The good news, Bruce Springsteen beat Miley Cyrus for Best Original Song. The bad news, Miley Cyrus was nominated for Best Original song?

8:06PM: Sting presents Best Original Song with a full beard… leading us to start tonight’s first unsubstantiated rumor of the night. Guess who’s auditioning for PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN IV?

8:02PM: KATE WINSLET wins Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture Drama for THE READER and we’re just going to say it… drones on for far too long. Thoughts?

    Until some CW stars are included, I have no interest in watching the same old, same old “favorites” on dull, drab, award shows. To see the nominees, you’d think network television didn’t exist, just cable. The awards consistently shunned the greatness of Buffy and others. Frankly, the only time the Globes got it right was when Keri Russell won for Felicity. She remains one of the finest actresses of our generation.

  • Hilsto

    Cranford was good. Besides, does anyone really care about that particular category even in a good year? The main problem is the fact they keep on making the main categories inaccessible to the people they expect to watch. That’s the real problem. Sure, give the obscure shows the awards. Then stop complaining that the ratings are down. Those two things are directly related.

    I tune in when I can have a chance to see my favorite actors and shows all glammed up and attending the awards. If they are not even there (*cough* Lost */cough*) why would I watch? It isn’t like it is entertaining in any other way and the awards themselves mean very little after they’ve given them to crap shows all these years anyhow.

  • Josh Emerson

    Is there anything airing on the CW today that is even worth nominating for a Globe? They haven’t had anyone deserving of one since Kristen Bell.

    Hope 30 Rock and Dexter take the awards. NPH for Supporting Actor (he was awesome hosting SNL)

  • Mark

    “Is there anything airing on the CW today that is even worth nominating for a Globe?”

    Well, there’s Jensen Ackles. But that’s about it.

  • Jen

    I really hope NPH wins Supporting Actor.

  • Joe

    Hah, yeah, let’s just shovel some awards to 90210 and Gossip Girl. That makes sense.

  • http://twitter.com/rural_juror Tim G.

    Hm, this should be an interesting event.

  • Rhonda

    Way to do your job Rumor, Springsteen was supposed to go backstage not back to his seat! I guess she only had 2 years to practice. (since it was cancelled last year!)

  • Mark

    Ugh. NPH should have won.

  • http://www.thetvaddict.com theTVaddict

    Mark – Agreed!

  • Rhonda

    Jesus, 2 awards then 10 commercials! I should be recording this and watching 24!

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    Awww … I so wanted NPH to win that award!

    I’m okay with Kate Winslet’s speech being on the long side. She’s been nominated more times than I can recall at the Golden Globes and Oscars, and only won one Golden Globe. Usually the bridesmaid, but tonight she’s the bride!

  • Michael

    Just Wanted To Say I Have Been Right On All Categories So Far… not to brag or anything.

  • Rhonda

    You beat me to it!I had read that they were seeing each other but never believed it!!

  • Michael

    Im on a roll tonight

  • http://twitter.com/rural_juror Tim G.

    Um… FOR REALS?! Paquin wins over January Jones?!

  • Rhonda

    I LOVE Anna as Sookie but by no means is she the best actress!

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    Yay Anna Paquin! Vampire lovers FTW!

  • http://www.thetvaddict.com theTVaddict

    Michael, we’re going to need some proof here! You did not call Anna Paquin :)

  • Michael

    Totally did, not lying at all! Even though I completely credit that one to all the prediction lists I read but I totally did. I am going to send you my prediction list from my ipod but thats all I can offer. And I am betting I will quickly find myself messing up alot.

  • Rhonda

    How freakin funny is Ricky Gervais!! The Kate Winslet ep. of Extras is hilarious!!

  • Michael

    I just lost my prediction winning streak, I for some reason thought the globes would have picked Emma Thompson

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    Ricky Gervais, hysterical as always!

  • http://twitter.com/rural_juror Tim G.

    Who was that Amy Winehouse impersonator and why was she on stage that long?

  • http://www.thetvaddict.com theTVaddict

    Tim G… still scratching my head so to who she was and what she won for!

    The Televixen… love Ricky Gervais.

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    She won for Happy Go Lucky. Best Supporting Actress Musical or Comedy. What’s wrong with the girl? She should have shook Johnny’s hand at the very least. I would have hugged him :)

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    Drew Barrymore looks emaciated IMO. Give the girl a hot fudge sundae!

  • Rhonda

    Did anyone else expect Drew to break out “Happy Birthday Mr. President”? That look is fug!

  • Michael

    Heath Ledger Time…

  • Rhonda

    I just fangirl screamed…” Will Arnett!” nerd alert.

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    Rhonda, I think my word at seeing Arnett was “Wheeee!”

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    It’s funny, on my blog, every time a category comes up that John Adams is nominated in, I’ve been posting the winners before they’re announced. Kinda predictable n’est-ce pas?

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    I’m honestly not creeped out by the Michael C Hall/Jennifer Carpenter marriage. I think people feeling weird about it is just a testament to how well they play their roles on Dexter.

  • Rhonda

    Man, Seth Rogan got hot! But I could never be with him because it would be like having sex with Fozzie Bear! Sorry..TMI?

  • http://www.thetvaddict.com theTVaddict

    Rhonda… pleeeaassseeeee… if millionaire movie star Seth Rogan offered, you’d so be there!

  • Rhonda

    HA You’re right. He could buy me some gold earplugs!!!!!

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    Seth Rogen is hawt!

  • deuce

    The lumping of TV with miniseries suck, NPH should have won. Can we just give NPH/Hugh Laurie/Marie-Louise Parker/Kate Winslet/Michael C. Hall/John Hamm their Emmys/Oscars so we can get on with our lives? Are they waiting for a Susan Lucie moment, it took her 19 years!

  • http://www.thetvaddict.com theTVaddict

    deuce, I’m with you there.

  • nctodc

    Tracy Morgan was hilarious.

  • Michael

    Hmmm… I never knew Salma Hayek was secretly Javiar Bardem

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    SBC was most definitely funny! They must feel some weird loyalty to Skeletor … er Madonna.

  • Rhonda

    Gez, Cameron run a freakin comb through your hair!

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    And get Cameron to the Craft Service Table, stat. The girl needs a sandwich!

  • http://makesyoudothewacky.blogspot.com/ shanna

    I’m super late but: Unfortunately Rumer Willis got the weirdest features of both her parents. Right on her face. Sometimes life is cruel.

  • Michael

    Hey they came in on time for once, at least something remotely different happened here tonight.

  • http://www.thetelevixen.com The Televixen

    I wonder if NBC will be fined for the F-bomb? So much for the delay!

  • Michael

    Could you actually hear the F-bomb? I didn’t here it, at least for me it was bleeped out.

  • http://allthingsfangirl.blogspot.com r dubs

    crickets for Happy Go Lucky? I love the site, but poor form guys…one of the most raved about films of the year and Hawkins may very well take home Best Actress at the Oscars.

  • http://www.thetvaddict.com theTVaddict

    Michael, I 100% heard the F-Bomb, and saw the finger that NBC neglected to blur out!

  • Josh C.

    *rasies hand* I saw happy go lucky and it was the cutest movie ever. she deserved that award

  • http://Bossungstudios.com Cynthia Fuller

    Lawrence Fishburn giving an award as the star of CSI? Please. I will never watch the show again without William Peterson, and can we get a break from Tami, or Toni Faye…..no reasonable person knows who she is or cares about 30 Rock……………go figure, the real people don’t watch…………..

  • luke

    I watch 30 Rock, so I guess I’m not a real person.

  • http://Bossungstudios.com Cynthia Fuller

    Of course you are……don’t mind my comments……..all change is difficult, I am just sorry to see CSI fall apart…..I really liked the series and honestly never gave 30 Rock a chance because I am not a fan of Alec Baldwin….he is not the greatest actor in my opinion, but I have been wrong before…….just tired of the Politics……..have a great day

  • Lyz

    I’m pretty mad that Supernatural diden’t get nominated,,,
    Hmm, To me Jared and Jensen work super hard and are great actors.
    Along with other as well that got no recognition whatsoever :/
