This is hilarious.
The Golden Globes awards won’t even be livestreamed this year.
No one will see the pared down awards show online and no one will be able to watch it on tv.
Last year NBC announced it will not broadcast the 2022 Golden Globes award show after backlash over lack of diversity in the ranks.

NBC pays an annual fee of $60 million for the right to air the Golden Globes, but they decided to shutter the 2022 Globes.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) has come under fire over the last couple of years for having zero black people in its organization.
Out of 87 members, not a single one is black.
“We continue to believe that the HFPA is committed to meaningful reform,” an NBC rep said in a statement. “However, change of this magnitude takes time and work, and we feel strongly that the HFPA needs time to do it right. As such, NBC will not air the 2022 Golden Globes. Assuming the organization executes on its plan, we are hopeful we will be in a position to air the show in January 2023.”
Deadline reported:
The controversy-plagued Golden Globes looks set to return this weekend, but no one will see it online or otherwise.
“This year’s event is going to be a private event and will not be livestreamed,” an HFPA spokesperson told Deadline on Thursday. “We will be providing real-time updates on winners on the Golden Globes website and our social media.”
Full results from Sunday’s pared-down Globes will be announced via a press release after the approximately 90-minute ceremony is over, we hear.

They’re afraid of even more craptacular ratings than last time.
Golden Globes were never anything until recently.
They hype it up and now tear it down.
If you do happen see a white person in a commercial, they’re with a black spouse.

How many black-only award shows and events and tv networks are there?
How many educational grants and awards and scholarships are exclusively black-only/no whites allowed?
Succumbing to the cancel/cancer culture. They should double down and stream the show anyway. And triple the number of non-bipocs. Let the heads of the miserable lefties explode. (Not that I will be watching…)
Exactly!!
I was looking forward to missing them.
I know especially the commercials shown during sport games ...sometimes I think I travelled to Africa and I’m watching tv sports there,
The Hollywood foreign correspondents don’t come from a lot of Diverse country. It’s not their fault. I guess they expect all those European and Asian countries to recruit Africans.
That’s not gonna happen.
“NBC pays an annual fee of $60 million....”
The real problem is too much green stuff going out & not enough coming back as a result.
The Gallup Poll cancelled the “most admired man/woman” poll, and the suspicion is that they did so because they thought Trump would win. Maybe Trump was going to get a Golden Globe, too.
What a great scam. Get a group of about 80 people to give out awards to celebrities and collect $60 million a year just from the US television rights.
They probably charge sponsorships, sell their votes to studio heads, and also collect fees from film producers to air clips of the movies up for nomination during the presentation.
We’ll never see that again in our lifetimes. I never watch it but was clued in what was going on and had to see it for myself. It was hilarious.
Don’t know what the issue is. It will all balance out since only black people seem to be in every commercial.
When I see a white guy in a commercial he’s always doing things like blowing up his gas grill, falling off a ladder, cutting off an arm, that kind of stuff.
And don’t even ask about what happened to the White Jake from State Farm.
if you conducted a Golden Globes show in a forest but no one saw it or heard it, did it really happen?
yep ... and we’re not the only ones and it’s not just TV ads, but all ads AND the shows themselves:
Eating themselves. Hope it gives them indigestion.
