golden globes

The red carpet arrivals on NBC are starting. The show doesn't officially start till 7pm central. I think I'll tune in and out for the show. I can't watch the whole show. But I'm excited to hear the award for TV shows more than movies because I haven't seen that many movies.

Some thoughts:
  • Yah! 24 won for Best TV Drama.

  • WOW. J.Lo was there. I had the sense that it must have been a weird moment for her.
  • Catherine Zeta-Jones is gorgeous.

  • I'm glad Mary-Louise Parker won. Yeah to the boobies shout-out.
  • Yah! for Peter Jackson. I think this is the first time that he won for Best Director. It was the last film, so I bet they wanted to honor him when they still can. I'll be a fan of his for life.

  • I loved Bent it Like Beckham. The only nominee for Best Picture-Comedy I have seen. I must really see Lost in Translation.

  • Lord of the Rings won Best Picture-Drama. Again, yah for them.

  • Lisa Ling was being so serious. I know that she's a reporter for National Geographic something now, but this is a Hollywood award show. She's asking stars some thought provoking questions. I'm not saying that the stars aren't bright enough to answer, but maybe, I'm not used to hearing questions like those. "Who are you wearing?" from Joan and Melissa Rivers seem more appropriate to me because I've been watching E! coverage in the past. Ling seems to be about serious journalism. To me, she's a fish out of water. Flapping around and stuff.
