Ricky Gervais will return for the 5th time to host the 2020 Golden Globes

I wonder what new Tim Allen jokes he will come up with?

I hope he does not tone down his act. Maybe in 2021 he should host the Oscars.


Ricky Gervais will host the Golden Globes for a record fifth time in 2020 – despite previously claiming he wouldn’t present the awards show again. The comedian, who hosted the show between 2010 and 2012 and again in 2016, will reprise his role for next year’s 77th edition, once again stating that this will be his final year as host. In a statement, Gervais said that the organisers the Hollywood Foreign Press Association had “made me an offer I can’t refuse. But this is the very last time I’m doing this, which could make for a fun evening”.

The Golden Globes will take place on 5 January 2020 at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills

Pass the popcorn. Will be front and center. Tina and Amy were great, but Ricky is the best. And please help me forget the trainwreck that was Andy Samberg and Sandra Oh. Not since James Franco and Anne Hathaway has there been more terrible hosts on any awards show.

This is enough to get me to watch them, again. Or at least record them and skip through.

Re: Ricky Gervais will return for the 5th time to host the 2020 Golden Globes

There will be outrage over him coming back by certain parties.

For example, this article is the tip of the iceberg:

"Banal, unfunny and not as dangerous as he thinks: It’s time we stopped glorifying Ricky Gervais at the Golden Globes" -by Adam White

Yes Sir, I will be watching! I love it when Ricky hosts because nothing is off limits to him. Almost four years later and this still cracks me up.

^ Actually I think that was a real dick move. Bad-mouth Affleck in an opening monologue, that's fine. But putting Damon in that spot for nothing the he did was very uncool.

The last time he hosted, I felt he really watered his humor down a bit. I hope he goes all-out this time like he did the first time he hosted.

Agree and maybe if he claims this is his last he will go all out again.

He should come out wearing an SNL 5-timer host jacket.

Re: The 77th Annual Golden Globe Awards -- TV Edition

Total absence of The Watchmen is inexcusable.

There is no network TV at all in those nominations, is there?

For the second year in a row, Ms Maisel gets nominations just days after it premieres.

Even though hardly anyone is watching, I’m loving The Morning Show so far. Very cool seeing it nominated even though it’s audience probably isn’t that big.

But is it being nominated for the previous season, which dropped in December of 2018 or this current one that just premiered?

Nope, current season. This is the show's third batch of nominations. Brosnahan has already won twice in the Lead Actress Comedy Series category .

I'm guessing Phoebe Waller-Bridge/Fleabag will rule this year.

I'm going to assume they've had copies of it for a little while.

They notoriously like to honor the new and different. I understand and even appreciate them leaving GoT off the Best Drama Series list, but how they snubbed Watchmen as well as the amazing work from Regina King (last year's winner for Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture) is totally beyond me.

Matthew Macfadyen deserves a nod for Succession.
Succession really should win in it's category.

Nice to see Joey King get nominated for The Act. She was really good.

Sure, Tom is GREAT, but they kinda all are. And remember for the GG's it's five male nominees for all the Supporting performances on TV - Drama, Comedy, TV movie and Limited Series. Even one nod in the category is pretty good.
If anything I was a little surprised I didn't see Sarah Snook in the list of nominees.

I love Watchmen but I am not sure King's work on Watchmen is really all that exceptional. Certainly good enough to support the series but not nomination worthy in my view. I think Jean Smart has been better.
