The 77th Golden Globes Awards are tonight, so I thought I’d give my picks ahead of the action. I’m going to split it up between what I think will win vs. what I want to win.

I really don’t have any 100% locks aside from Parasite for Best Foreign Language Film, because the Golden Globes are always a little wacky. There’s no doubt I will be upset by some of the winners and losers, but that just makes more content for this blog so it’s a win/win in that sense. At least we can count on Ricky Gervais roasting the shit out of some people tonight…Twitter will be on fire, I can’t wait.
There should also be an asterisk (*) next to every Television, Drama winner because Watchmen failed to receive a single nomination, even though it was no doubt the best show of the year.
