Vanity Fair magazine described the Golden Globes Sunday night as a “near-total disaster” describing the show’s host Jo Koy’s opening monologue as a “horrid, sophomoric mishmash of lazy jokes.”
“A cynical, grasping ceremony is nothing new for the Globes, but this year felt particularly desperate,” the article continued.
The New York Post described the broadcast as being a “new low.”
“Wow, was this shindig agonizing. The evening was unbearably unfunny and had just two or three great speeches over three long hours,” the outlet continued.
“The best reform the Globes could possibly make next, for the sanity of everybody at home, is to just call it quits.”
From Breitbart:
Sunday’s three-hour telecast crowned Oppenheimer and Poor Things as the best movies of the year, while also heaping honors on the series Succession and The Bear. Barbie was mostly shut out, though it did manage to snag the Globes’ new award called “best cinematic and box office achievement” — a category clearly designed to juice viewership. Last year’s show managed to draw a paltry 6.3 million viewers — an all-time low for the Globes.
