This is my first liveblog in a while. Haven't seen nearly all the nominees yet, but I've done enough catching up this week that I've got a decently well informed opinion.
5PM PST: Here we go.... Hi ladies! Tina and Amy, good to have you back.
5:04 PM: No selfies with Julia Louis-Dreyfuss. Got it.
5:06 PM: I really need to see "The Wolf of Wall Street."
5:08 PM: This monologue wins Best Use of Martin Scorsese.
5:12 PM: Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture time. Jennifer Lawrence wins! I was rooting for Lupita Nyong'o, but I love it when Jennifer Lawrence wins anything.
5:14 PM: Best Supporting Actress in a Series, Mini-Series or TV Movie. Jacqueline Bisset wins. Haven't seen any of the nominees, but in a category this crazy, who has?
5:15 PM: Bisset is clearly totally unprepared, but she's recovering wonderfully. Oh, and there's the first censor mute of the evening.
5:21 PM: Best TV Movie or Mini-Series already? Of course it goes to "Behind the Candelabra." How could it not?
5:25 PM: Best Actress in a Mini-Series or TV Movie goes to Elizabeth Moss. YAY! First major award win for Moss and "Top of the Lake," which needs the attention. And that's a great dress.
5:27 PM: Hi Matt Damon. He's getting funnier as he gets older. Why is he introducing "Captain Phillips"? I have no idea, but there it is.
5:33 PM: Tina and Amy are making fun of the HFPA. Nice. The president's speech is nice and brief though.
5:35 PM: Ooh, teleprompter snafu. I've heard good things about Margot Robbie, and this is not the best introduction. Oh well. They intro "Wolf of Wall Street."
5:38 PM: Best Actor in a TV Series, Drama. No clips? Aww, too bad. Bryan Cranston wins, because how could they give it to anyone else this year?
5:40 PM: Good grief, it's weird seeing Cranston with hair on his head and no beard. He looks like Hal from "Malcolm in the Middle" again.
5:42 PM: Best TV Series, Drama. Why is "Downton Abbey" the only one that lists a season? Must be some sort of submission requirement thing because their seasons run so short. "Breaking Bad: wins. Here comes Vince Gilligan.
5:43 PM: And we got Aaron Paul's "Yeah bitch!" unbleeped.
5:47 PM: Only reason why they would have Philomena Lee here with Steve Coogan. Yup, intro for "Philomena."
5:49 PM: Kate Beckinsale, Sean Combs, and Usher? This is an interesting trio. They're here for Best Score. Mostly films that aren't major contenders. Alex Ebert wins for "All is Lost" wins. The man's hair is amazing.
5:54 PM: And now Best Song. Bono wins for "Ordinary Love" from the "Mandela" movie. I thought "Please Mr. Kennedy" or "Let it Go" had this one. Mandela effect, maybe?
6:01 PM: Best Supporting Actor in a Series, Mini-Series or TV Movie, Did I miss an intro? Who are these presenters? Anyway, Jon Voight wins for "Ray Donovan" out of left field. At least they nominated Corey Stoll, which they Emmys didn't get right.
6:04 PM: Olivia Wilde here to intro "Her."
6:09 PM: Hi Robert Downey Jr. If this acting thing goes south, he's got a great career in standup waiting for him. Best Actress In A Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy. Please let him present an actress category every year, Golden Globes. Amy Adams wins. "American Hustle" is on a roll today. I've actually seen every performance in this category and Adams wouldn't be my pick, but I understand why she won. She's way overdue.
6:14 PM: Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon's daughter is Miss Golden Globes this year. And... Amy Poehler's in drag as Tina Fey's fake adult son, Mr. Golden Globes. Best Actress in a TV Series, Drama. Go Tatiana! Why is Taylor Schilling in this category again? Robin Wright wins for "House of Cards" and good for her. No speech, but she's killing it anyway.
6:18 PM: Hi Jim Carrey! Where have you been? It feels like it's been ages since I've seen him out for one of these things. Anyway, he's doing the intro for "American Hustle."
6:20 PM: And here's Christoph Waltz for Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture, because he's probably the only one they could get to pronounce Daniel Brühl correctly. Jaren Leto wins for "Dallas Buyers Club"! I was rooting for Fassbender, but it's hard to argue with this one.
We're hitting the halfway mark, so it's time to start a new post. To be continued...
