The most … awards show of the season!

CBS told NBC, “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,” and NBC sent the Golden Globes. The bedraggled awards show is heading over to a new network, following one year on NBC and one weird year when it was just on Twitter. And with that move comes a new host, comedian Jo Koy, in his first major TV emceeing gig. A press release teased Koy’s “unique charm, energy, and unpredictable humor,” while Globes president Helen Hoehne said she was excited for Koy’s “infectious energy and relatable humor.” “This is that moment where I get to make my Filipino family proud,” Koy said. “Mahal Kita (Google it)!”
For the first year on a new network, the Globes are eschewing their usual chaos to play things pretty safe with top nominees including Barbie, Succession, and Oppenheimer. The ceremony will follow the last Sunday of regular-season football on CBS, airing at 8 p.m. ET. It will also be broadcast live on Paramount+. We will simply hope to see Kylie Jenner trying to hold a plastered Timothée Chalamet together like she’s Amy in that one scene in Little Women (that is, if she’s seen it).
