Not well, Joey. Not well.
If there’s one thing we learned about the Hollywood Foreign Press during last night’s Golden Globes, it’s that they HATE comedy. How else to explain acting trophies going to Matt LeBlanc for having a big dick in “Episodes” and Laura Dern for pretending “Enlightened” isn’t a drama, rather than Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey/Amy Poehler? (Not to mention all those who weren’t even nominated, like Charlie Day, etc. etc. etc.) An overrated season of “Modern Family” won for Best Comedy, too, furthering the show’s status as the New “Frasier.”
Speaking of: Kelsey Grammer took home the award for Best Actor in a Drama for his role in “Boss,” providing thousands of “Frasier” fansites their headline for the day, while the much-deserved Claire Danes spied on, then snagged a Best Actress trophy for “Homeland,” which also won Best Drama.
It’s total BS that “Breaking Bad” wasn’t nominated (and that Bryan Cranston didn’t win), but “Homeland” was fantastic, Showtime’s first HBO-level series. The only other series I would have liked to have won, “Game of Thrones,” got an award elsewhere: PETER DINKLAGE slapped Eric Stonestreet and Guy Pearce in the face, and carried off with a Best Supporting Actor Globe. And Jessica Lange, for her effectively over-the-top work in “American Horror Story,” received the Best Supporting Actress trophy over Sofia Vergara, giving the world thousands of “she already has the REAL Golden Globes” jokes. (Her Pepsi ad ran every three seconds, right?)

Highlight of the night. Or would have been, if not for this little guy:




Everything but Dinklage = caca.
Homeland’s pretty great, and I’m glad the show got the award when it did, not four years from now when Showtime’s running it into the ground but people still inexplicably like and watch it.
Honestly, that was the only exciting win of the night, even if it was predictable.
Meh, I’m had more important things to do last night (rewatch the last season of Archer on my DVR before Thursday).
Elton John is the king of bitchface.
And I like Modern Family, even though I get the backlash, but you know the voters will be over it soon. Remember when 30 Rock won everything, and then Glee came along and stole its thunder? And then Modern Family came along and (rightfully) stole Glee’s thunder? I feel like we should be placing bets on the new favorite that will sweep everything next year.
Queen. Definitely queen.
Bryan Cranston deserves every award available for Walter White
The golden globes don’t really matter, you guys. Hence the no capitalization.
The woman from that USA show being nominated for Best Actress had me cracking up.
“Hey, Tommy Gavin’s crazy ex is on a show! WTF?”
I thought Breaking Bad wasn’t eligible for nominations this season because it started airing too late in the year. Or am I confused with last year?
Nevermind, I’m an idiot. Ignore this!
Can the Hollywood Foreign Press Association be forcefully dissolved after not giving the Best Actor – Drama award to Bryan Cranston?
Maybe they don’t know he is the one who knocks? Someone should probably let them know.

I don’t have anything else to say other than fuck you golden globes, you’re assholes and I hope Walter white poisons you with that fucking plant.
Dickheads.
Tio Salamanca watched the Golden Globes and simply dinged his bell twice.
I seriously have to ask: Did Sidney Poitier have a stroke? That was painful and really depressing to watch.
I thought the same thing about Madonna.
Well, at least there were a few deserving winners. And, while I agree that LeBlanc didn’t deserve “best actor,” I did think he was pretty good on Episodes; he showed some pretty good range. More than I expected. And I ain’t talkin’ ’bout penile length.
Also, that Amy Poehler winking gif is really working for me. And the background Tina Fey is just gravy.
Homeland was decent, but let’s face it, it’s not even playing the same sport as Game of Thrones or Boardwalk Empire.
Can you feel the loath toniiiight!
