January 15th, 2007

11:00PM: Babel.. best picture! WOW, didn’t expect that. 11:02… it was a long night. Thanks so much to everyone who took part in the live blog tonight — namely Vance, Todd, Tim, Tcgc, Liz, Jennifer, mars_mg, mg714! Have a great night everyone.

10:43PM: GREY’S ANATOMY! Amazing!!! Hmmmm…. Was Isaiah Washington on stage? Interesting….

10:37PM: DREAMGIRLS! Woo-Hoo!!!

10:36PM: Why is Dane Cook at the Golden Globes???

10:28PM: BORAT — that is awesome. Congrats to Sasha Baron Cohen for an amazing performance. Well deserved. It’s nice to actually see Sasha talk… British accent… so strange.

10:25PM: Martin Scorsese, it’s about time!

10:10PM: Lifetime acheivment to Warren Beatty. So Long and Boring.

9:53PM: LOW POINT OF THE SHOW. Woman interviewing America Ferrara, what an embarassment, worst questions ever!!!! She should be fired…

9:48PM: Best Actress in a comedy….. America Ferrera I can’t believe that she won. I love how she gets a standing O for playing ‘Ugly!’ She’s so articulate, and real… America is awesome.

9:38PM: Clint Eastwood, the guy walks into a room and gets a standing Ovation.

9:30PM: Best TV Comedy… UGLY BETTY Not to toot my own horn, but I picked it! Such a happy cast, that is awesome.

9:27PM: Half way point of the award show…. no water cooler moment yet…. We need Christine Lahti to get stuck in a bathroom or something.

9:21PM: Best Actor in a TV series…. it’s about time. Great category. As I’ve said before, as long as Tony Shaloub doesn’t win I’m happy……. and it goes to… ALEC BALDWIN! Cue to Zach Braff…. nice fake smile. Nice speech Alec, you do indeed Rock 30 Rock!

9:20PM: Motion Picture Screenplay awards…. and snoore…. bring on more TV awards.

9:17PM: Cameron Diaz… what are you wearing? Seriously…. are you taking fashion tips for Bjork!

9:11PM: Helen Mirren, that’s a pretty racy dress for a 70 year old!

9:01PM: Has Eddie Murphy ever won anything aside from a Blockbuster Video Award? Congrats to Eddie, it was an amazing performance (DREAMGIRLS).

9:00PM: Does Brat Pitt sleep in a cryogenic chamber?

8:57PM: Everybody loves Helen Mirren. Elizabeth I will win for sure. And the GG goes to Elizabeth I.

8:56PM: Borat… I’m shocked he didn’t come in character.

8:48PM: Annette Bening.. did she just get out of bed?

8:46PM: Meryl Streep, not at all a surprise! She’s so gracious, classy and unpretentious….. she does indeed rock. Speech… groan……. okay, it’s Meryl Streep, she can do whatever she wants.

8:42PM: Steve Carell, What does the blue puzzle piece mean? HAPPY FEET, WORST MOVIE EVER! (says Thors and theTVaddict)

8:40PM: Charlie Sheen has a woman’s haircut (says Robin)

8:34PM: Are there no time limits on speechs? What is the deal with HILARY SWANK, not a fan. Is that LINDSEY LOHAN drinking ‘water’ in the background?

8:31PM: MILO HAS NO BANGS.. but his joke fell flat! MICHAEL C HALL deserves this so much. But it’s a great category. HUGH LAURIE!!!!! WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT…… It was so not his year. MICHAEL C HALL WAS ROBBED. I guess it helps to be foreign to win a Golden Globe voted on by the Hollywood Foreign Press.

8:27PM: Jessica Beil, holy working out. Check out those arms. Best Supporting Actres, Mini-series, TV… and the GG goes to: EMILY BLUNT No, she’s not related to James Blunt!

8:25PM: TRUMP SHOT… BOOOOO! GO ROSIE

8:24PM: Question: What’s worse: Introducing the nominees for best sound, or introducing a movie? BABEL…. sounds boring.

8:15PM: If Patricia Arquette wins, I’m packing it in. Kyra Sedwick WINS! Lauren is happy, she LOVES THE CLOSER. Does she remember to thank Kevin Bacon (her husband). KEVIN GETS A THANK YOU, Happiest couple ever….. (it used to be justin and cameron!)

8:13PM: HIRO HIRO HIRO (my pick!)… Jeremy Irons WINS his 800th Golden Globe. Cut to music, this speach blows.

8:11PM: Ms. Golden Globe, what a whore. She’s old enough to be Jack Nicolson’s wife! (says Ari!)

8:07PM: Akward moment, Justin on stage. Cut to Kelly.. I mean Cameron

8:04PM: Cut to Beyonce, fake tears… a community… of rich white people!

8:01PM: Solo Cameron Diaz, Solo Justin… so sad! George Clooney.. best supporting actress, movie…. J HUDSON, it’s your night for sure. JENNIFER HUDSON, not even that surprised to win, a little disappointing. WOW! America Ferrera, looks awesome, not at all ugly!

8:00PM: Cheesy opening. DREAMGIRLS, good choice. As much as we love DREAMGIRLS, we’re disappointed it’s not a Lou Vega hit!

7:47PM: So Ari’s picking up LICKS for everyone — just because I know you’re all dying to?+l know what I’m wolfing down as I watch the GG’s (best burgers ever, in case you don’t live in Toronto Canada). T-minus 13 minutes to go…. just killing time by re-watching last night’s BROTHERS & SISTERS — Such a great episode by the way. Surprised Jason Lewis is so into playing Kevin’s closeted boyfriend. When he was in Toronto for a play a few summers back (THIS IS OUR YOUTH), he wouldn’t do any of the ‘Gay’ Press (as he put it!). Apparently, he wasn’t a fan of the enormous Gay Fanclub he generated from SEX AND THE CITY. I guess his career was going down the tubes so he decided to suck it up and join BROTHERS SISTERS!

7:00PM: T-minus one hour until the start of the GOLDEN GLOBES! More importantly, t-minus thirty minutes until the inevitable argument breaks out over what to order in while watching the GG’s!

I just ordered Swiss Chalet, although I think Pizza Pizza with garlic dipping sauce would have been a better call.

tcgc Says:

Testy testy

tcgc Says:

so glad…hero’s first loss of the night…save the awards show, save tv.

thetvaddict Says:

tcgc, it’s HIRO not Hero!

Todd W in NC Says:

Do you think Kyra Sedgwick’s surprise at winning was genuine or faked?

tcgc Says:

Last time I checked the show is called Hero’s…

thetvaddict Says:

The panel here thinks it was genuine!

tcgc Says:

Sorry Heroes

Aludra Says:

Well, hell. Now I want Lick’s, too.

Liz Says:

If Patricia Arquette HAD won, what would your reactions have been?

tcgc Says:

Shoginai would have been mine

thetvaddict Says:

Liz – Thankfully we dodged that bullet…. but Tony Shaloub still has a chance to win!

tcgc Says:

that means shit happens in japanese…in honour of Masi Oka

thetvaddict Says:

Poll: Renee Zellwegger, HOT OR NOT… the Panel says normal. Thors says she’s pregnant.

Todd W in NC Says:

Renee: Used to be hot; not quite so much anymore. Naomi Watts looked pretty good though.

Vance Says:

What’s with all the TV Movie people winning in things no one has seen? (Even though I loved Emily Blunt in The Devil Wears Prada)

thetvaddict Says:

I thought she won for the Devil Wears Prada.. what did she win for?

thetvaddict Says:

I thought she won for the Devil Wears Prada.. what did she win for?

Todd W in NC Says:

Is anyone familiar with Emily Blunt? Is her accent…Australian?

Todd W in NC Says:

HUGH LAURIE !!! They got one right !!! Sweet !!!

tcgc Says:

Gideon’s Daughter

tcgc Says:

at least it wasn’t mdreamy or jack bauer

Todd W in NC Says:

For having no speech, Laurie ad-libbed well. He said there should be a market for pre-written acceptance speeches–I think he could be one of the writers. ;)

thetvaddict Says:

I agree, Sadly, Hugh Laurie gave a good speech.

Liz Says:

Renee: Always has sour lemon in tow. Definitely not hot.

Jennifer Says:

Why is Tina Fey wearing a figure skating outfit? I’ll ponder that as I dig into my pizza – the obvious choice for any gg dinner.

thetvaddict Says:

I haven’t even noticed Tina Fey!

Todd W in NC Says:

Wow, doesn’t Reese Witherspoon look great, I mean even better than usual? Felicity Huffman too.

Vance Says:

Blunt won for a TV movie (I dont even know what it was for). She lost to JHud in Sup. Actress in movie.

Now, I just noticed Beyonce was nominated in the same category as Meryl Streep. How the HELL DID THAT HAPPEN??? how did I not notice this before? Who would have thought a year ago eh?

thetvaddict Says:

Todd – totally just thinking that… looks amazing, although a touch anorexic… or mabye she just looks thinner minus Ryan Philippe.

Vance Says:

oh and I thought Emily Blunt was from England but don’t quote me on that…

so whose excited that Meryl is doing Mamma Mia the movie?! Love that she always gives humourous speeches.

Jennifer Says:

She looks great because she’s shed the shackles of being married to the ultra overrated Ryan Phillipe!

Todd W in NC Says:

So, am I correct that Helen Mirren played both Elizabeth I & II in the same year, one on TV, one on the big screen?

Todd W in NC Says:

Huh, Prince is there. He’s sitting behind Eddie Murphy. He just wouldn’t go up to get his award earlier (either that or he was in the bathroom, ala Christine Lahti).

Tim G. Says:

Did anyone else just see Prince shove his hand in the camera man’s way? What a freak.

Vance Says:

Yeah. Helen Mirren played both Elizes’ in the same year. Must we wait till the Academy Awards to hand her the Oscar or couldnt we just save everyone the trouble and give it to her now?

Eddie was good but Im kinda surprised he won.

Jennifer Says:

Has anyone noticed a trend of “the British” really cleaning up this year at the globes?

Vance Says:

Oh thank god Tony Shaloub didn’t win (along with Patricia Arquette)…the Globes are officially okay this year!

thetvaddict Says:

Can I say an AMEN for No Tony Shaloub!

thetvaddict Says:

Folks, what does the blue puzzle piece mean that everyone’s wearing?

Todd W in NC Says:

Re: British wins… Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

Does anyone else remember when Cameron Diaz was still hot?

Zach Braff got robbed. :(

Wow, these GG awards are really small. They look like 3rd place bowling trophies. ;)

Vance Says:

the Ugly Betty cat look genuinely shocked and happy which is so cute! Love that Ashley Jensen went from The Office to now winner Ugly Betty! Who would have thought that would have been a great choice?!!!

mars_mg Says:

i’m so happy for Ugly Betty!!!

Tim G. Says:

The Puzzle piece is for Autism Awareness.

Becki Newton looked AMAZING, so did America Ferrera. WTF was up with Vanessa Williams though?

thetvaddict Says:

Yeah UGLY BETTY… Tim.. thanks for the heads up, you win an award of a free licks burger… expect to get it in the mail in a few weeks.

mars_mg Says:

i think Vanessa came on stage late.

thetvaddict Says:

What was the deal with her hair?

Todd W in NC Says:

Also really happy about Ugly Betty !!!

Yeah, Vanessa William does look weird.

I’m a little surprised about Letters From Iwo Jima winning, considering how much I hear about Pan’s Labyrinth. I wouldn’t know, first-hand, since I haven’t seen them, but now I think I want to see them both.

thetvaddict Says:

It’s Clint Eastwood…..I’m not surprised.. He’s an American Hero!

mars_mg Says:

Vanessa’s hair just got blow dried a little too much.

Vance Says:

I kinda like Vanessa’s hair. Pan’s Labyrith is a little overated… maybe. I keep changing my mind on it (though I liked Volver more).

Oh yey! America!!!

Tim G. Says:

Awww, America Ferrera is so adorable. She had everyone else crying in the audience too. :)

mars_mg Says:

AMERICA! I LOVE HER! She’s just sweet. :)

Todd W in NC Says:

America Ferrera !!! Sweet !!!

I think she’s the most real woman there. Dang, her speech almost made me tear up. (I’m keeping my man card.)

thetvaddict Says:

Agreed… America Rocks.

mars_mg Says:

I welled up a bit, too. she’s wonderful.

Liz Says:

Maria Menounos, worst interviewer EVER. I’m ashamed to say she’s from Massachusetts.

Liz Says:

Maria Menounos, worst interviewer EVER. She had America Ferrara right there, right after winning, and she asked THAT?!? I’m ashamed to say she’s from Massachusetts.

Vanessa Williams: Girl got a bad weave.
America’s dress: Absolutely gorgeous.

thetvaddict Says:

Liz – Maria was horrible……. an embarassment. That was a water cooler moment….. Loves how adorable America was.. she was waiting for Maria to interview her.. only to be thrown the most idiotic questions.

Vance Says:

didn’t love Borat but SBC really was great and that speech was hilarious!

thetvaddict Says:

Borat was really funny, albeit a tad over-rated. Funny speech though.

mg714 Says:

This is completely non-GG awards related, but I just wanted to say that it’s too bad NBC isn’t taking advantage of the huge amount of viewers watching the show by not advertising Friday Night Lights. At least when I’ve been watching, I haven’t seen any big promos for it – this show needs more viewers!

Okay – back to the awards. I am disappointed that both Steve Carell and The Office did not win, but the GGs do usually award the currently buzzworthy performances – like Alec Baldwin, America Ferrera/Ugly Betty. We still have the SAG awards!

Tim G. Says:

Man, Dreamgirls was ok… but it was no Chicago.

Little Miss Sunshine or Devil Wears Prada should have won.

SOOO happy Grey’s finally won.

thetvaddict Says:

Tim, was I. Washington on stage?

Jennifer Says:

Fire Maria Menounos! so bad……..I agree that Vanessa Williams’ hair looked strange…….perhaps she is preparing for a movie version of the broadway hit ‘cats’? Also, as a general yet completely unrelated comment, Phillip Seymour Hoffman is the best of all three named actors!

Todd W in NC Says:

Helen Mirren ought to play all royal figures from now on. ;)

Isn’t it weird how they save some of the biggest awards until the last hour, but by then, they’re so rushed, you don’t have as much time to savor the wins, presenters rushed through nomination listings and winners rushed through speeches? I think the Tom Hanks & Warren Beatty portions took up a fourth of the whole show.

Vance Says:

The Office is a better show but Im still very happy Ugly Betty won. Plus Grey’s too . Man. ABC is winning big! Plus Steve Carrell won last year so Im okay with sharing the wealth and Alec Baldwin really is the best thing of 30 Rock.

Yeah, Dreamgirls was a given even though I liked Devil more. If not, Thank You for Smoking or Little Miss sunshine but at least not Borat (my overated movie of the year).

Vance Says:

On a side note. Does anybody else think Dane Cook is WAY overated and only successful cause he basically looks like Colby Donaldson from Survivor Australia telling jokes in a funny voice?(read: good looking).

Todd W in NC Says:

Somebody get Forest Whitaker some oxygen and a glass of water. ;)

thetvaddict Says:

Vance, while I do think Dane was funny two years ago, now he’s far too overrated and definitely worth the hype. It never occured to be till you said it, but yeah he’s totally Colby’s long lost twin. Having him present at the GG’s is just a shameless attempt to grab the younger demo — who aren’t watching the show anyways…. mabye a few clips on YouTube.

Todd W in NC Says:

I didn’t see any of the movies up for best drama, but considering the hype, I would have thought it’d be The Queen. Babel is a bit of a surprise. Did anyone else see it?

thetvaddict Says:

I only saw THE DEPARTED, which I absolutely loved. I hear the QUEEN is amazing…

thetvaddict Says:

I know I should probably know this, being a TV addict and all.. but was anything new on CBS tonight? I know HIMYM was a repeat, but I’m not sure about everything else?

mg714 Says:

Thanks for live blogging the awards tonight tvaddict! Awards season is always fun and I’m glad to have fellow tvaddicts to chat with about it!

Liz Says:

Dan and Ari, please watch the ORIGINAL movie Martin Scorsese and that playwriter stole The Departed from. It stars Tony Leung, Andy Lau, Anthony Wong, Eric Tsang, Kelly Chen, and Sammi Cheng, all famous Hong Kong actors and actresses. The movie title is “Infernal Affairs”, a title that alludes to both Dante’s Inferno and the ultimate hell possible in Buddhism.

In my opinion the effects and acting are much better in the Chinese original, it’s a lot more suspenseful, and much more thought provoking. I respect Scorsese’s work but it’s sad the Chinese actors and directors do not get more attention to their work.

andi Says:

By the way there’s a Lick’s in Ottawa too…. Their fries have to be eaten with spicy Guk sauce, if you haven’t tried it you should. Also if you’re in Ottawa or Toronto you can buy Lick’s products at the grocery store. Now you have me craving Lick’sand wishing I had bought some when I was near one!

tdot Says:

omg POOR Maria Menounos wow, that was bad. props to her though for being greek just like me…

mars_mg Says:

OMG Liz, I completely agree with you. I watched Infernal Affairs first; and then watched The Departed. I tried to control it; but I can’t help but compare the original to the adaptation. The execution is so much better, in my opinion. And talk about the opening! The actors? Awesome. A true HK classic.
Even though they weren’t given that much credit in the movie itself, I’m happy they were mentioned by Cameron Diaz in her introduction and by Scorsese in his speech.

mars_mg Says:

^Cameron made a mistake, though, calling it Internal Affairs… at least that’s what i heard.

tcgc Says:

Babel is actually a brilliant movie. A little long, but it sends a pretty strong message and it’s not all about brad pitt which is a good thing.

tcgc Says:

The Queen was great as well.

mars_mg Says:

i have yet to check out babel. i’ll watch it pretty soon. the queen… i really want to watch. i only found out through the gg that it’s set during Princess Di’s death. interesting…

The Great Unwashed Masses Says:

Thank god we don’t have to watch this popus dirge again this year. This is not news. Now if we could only get the rest of the awards shows off the air we’d all be better off. Good riddance, get a life.

pjmk Says:

Did some one actually write for the previous Golden Globe shows? The intros, small talk, forced humor, and dialogue? If that’s the case then there has been 65 years of writers being paid for celebrities mispronouncing names and little else. You took the fun, the freedom and the spirit out of the show. We pay the celebrities to show up and “perform.” Dog and pony shows need no writers and they need no cue card clichés.

The writers will not make up the money they have already lost for years to come regardless of the resolution. And the guttless “starts” need to remember that they serve at the public’s discretion. Grow a backbone, or at least open a dictionary and learn to speak for yourself.
