The Golden Globe Award is an accolade recognizing excellence in film and television ... and this crap is apparently the best they've got!

All those awards shows are nothing but narcissists patting each other on the back.

Before seeing this article I had never heard of the show.

Make a movie about any headliner liberal social issues or developmental disabilities and you've got an award winner.

Dustin Hoffman scored with rain man, Sean Pen With being mentally ill. Gay and lesbian stuff is big right now, but the big winner in Oscarland will be Selma, simply because of the topic.

I have not had tv since 1997, but tons of folks I work with say Breaking Bad is really good. So I watched the first two episodes last week. Well, actually the first episode and half of the second. I turned it off.

I’ll never need to see it again. I have no moral repulsion to the concept. It just wasn’t very good. I could not really care about ANY of the characters. It was almost like watching cartoons.

A barometer by which Hollywood’s finest performers’ opinions should be measured.

The MSM, Hollywood, the Democrat and Republican Parties are all on board with this crap to degrees they believe they can still hold on to their fans.

How do I know these shows are just cultural propaganda and agitprop?

Because they lose money. Few will watch this freak-show and its revenues will be abysmal. The no-name actors may get recognition “the Golden Globes” but they are nobodies, who are paid little. This show may last a season, if lucky.

Since these shows will be such failures, they only exist for some other reason. What is it?

"The show, created by Jill Soloway, features three grown children and their father, who is a transgender woman. One daughter is married but has a lesbian affair. Another daughter likes S&M, illegal drugs, and three-somes. The son has multiple sexual relationships. There is much drinking, drug use, and sexual promiscuity and deviancy in the show."

Or as they call it in Hollywood, "Real Life".

God clearly says “13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” We should never be surprised that people love the broad road

So glad I quit watching TV in 2008. What a wasteland.

But no cigarette smoking, I would wager.

It was quite a parade.

Although I think the nationality of some of the winners had more bearing on the degree of perversion in the character.

Why not have a show that will have a Christian family with a working dad, a stay at home mom and normal kids. I bet they’ll have a show that has two pedophile dads raising two kids.. the oldest is a crossdressing boy and the other is a gay pteteen who loves his dads. That would be on before the Christian family show.

I'm not sure that this is the best they got; but, it is always what Hollywood celebrates. My husband once commented that he thinks that because critics see so many films (or tv shows) during the year, that the really weird ones are the ones that stand out.

I really don't think this show is what most Americans are watching during the week; just the lefties who like things that are "transgressive" no matter how big a piece of garbage it is.
