“Are you excited for the Golden Globes?” Well, for us, the answer is a surprisingly enthusiastic yes! The Golden Globes are back and ready to celebrate their second official show in their new home, and we can’t wait to see who and what they’ve nominated. After years of controversial headlines, the Golden Globes’ previous home, NBC, decided to part ways with the beleaguered organization, and just like the last time that happened, the Globes switched over to CBS, which hosted the awards show last year and is currently in a multiyear contract with the Globes. We are still figuring out the taste and profile of these new Golden Globes voters, but that won’t stop us from trying to guess what they might be thinking.
With so few contests called this early in the game and very few categories boasting a consensus or frontrunner, it truly is anyone’s game. With several A-listers expected to be in the conversation this year, all of Hollywood is expected to turn out for the Globes, particularly because host Nikki Glaser is expected to bring back the hilarious and raucous vibes of Globes gone by, and that is a refreshing change considering what happened last year.
Last Year, the Globes announced two new voting categories: the Best Stand-Up Comedian on Television and the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement in Motion Pictures. With so many new faces added to the voting body, we are at a loss as to how exactly to predict for this new group of 300 journalists. However, there have been indications all year to give us a good idea of precisely who will be competing in this slightly smaller awards season.
For the predictions below, our Awards Expert Jacqueline Coley will take into consideration everything from industry buzz and the historical leanings of the HFPA to our Tomatometer and Popcornmeter Scores as a guide, read the tea leaves, and place our bets. How right will they be? Bookmark this page and find out when the Golden Globe nominations are announced on Monday, December 9.
Check out our picks for the Golden Globes nominations below, and let us know who you think will be nominated in the comments.
