Here’s What Won At The Golden Globes!


I didn’t watch the Golden Globes on Sunday night.  Technically, it’s because I wasn’t feeling well and I needed to get some rest.  In reality, even if I had been healthy, I don’t know that I would have watched.  A few years ago, the Golden Globes were not televised and I discovered how liberating it was to not have to pretend to care about this stupid show.

That said, the Globes are considered an Oscar precursor, despite the fact that no one’s even sure who is voting on them nowadays.  So, here’s what won on Sunday night:
