Golden Globes

Unfortunately, due to the writer's strike, there wasn't a big to-do about the Golden Globes this year. This is not to say that they didn't happen, however. Here are a list of the bigger categories and their winners are the ones with asterisk next to the name. I would also like to say that I do in fact support the writers strike. After all, they're the ones that write all those spectacular scripts that make the actors seem funny, dramatic, etc. I just wish both sides could come to a compromise some time soon.
