Golden Globes 2011 Recap






Wow, that must have been one of my worst showings yet for an awards show. Only 40%, 10 out of 25 categories correct. At least I got most of the major film ones correct. I am happy that Social Network for Best Picture and Boardwalk Empire won for Best Television show. Kinda shocked at all the Glee love not that it’s a bad show. Carlos for best miniseries or made for TV movie? Really? Over The Pacific? Or even Temple Grandin? I wish I could have read lips to see what Tom Hanks’ response to losing to Carlos was? I thought Ricky Gervais was awesome. Wonder if they’ll invite him back. He seemed to be a bit more edgy this year. Fun to watch. Here are the results. (I hope I do a lot better for the Oscars.)
