The Golden Globes are tonight, which can mean only one thing: it's time for us to host a live-blog both celebrating and gently mocking awards season's drunk uncle. The Globes will honor the "best" of film and TV, and we'll likely be at least slightly confused as to why they made the choices they did. (Seriously, The Martian and The Big Short are comedies?) You'll hopefully have a good time.
Our live-blog will begin at 7:30 pm Eastern time, just as the red carpet show is wrapping up. It will run throughout the entire program, and since these are the Globes, it will probably even end on time! (Fingers crossed.) Join culture editor Todd VanDerWerff, deputy culture editor Jen Trolio, culture writers Alex Abad-Santos and Caroline Framke, and copy chief Tanya Pai for an evening full of fun and commentary. Will there be some special guests? We can only hope! (Seriously, we don't know yet. Check back in.)
You can follow along in real time right here, or you can just read it below. If you want to remember who's nominated, go here. And if you want to know who we think will win, you can check that out here. For all other needs, keep checking out Vox throughout the show.
Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?
Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple of big issues with relying on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on:
First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.
Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. And we can’t do that if we have a paywall.
So even though advertising is still our biggest source of revenue, we also seek grants and reader support. (And no matter how our work is funded, we have strict guidelines on editorial independence.)
If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today? Any amount helps.
