So the Golden Globes have announced their nominations for the make-or-break ceremony in January 2023, featuring much awards love for Avatar: The Way of Water, Elvis, Top Gun: Maverick and Tár. This is the one that will either ensure the Globes’ survival or consign them to untelevised irrelevance and slow death.
After last year’s row over the lack of diversity and preponderance of kickbacks among the Globes’ notoriously corruptible voting body, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, NBC refused to put the 2022 ceremony on the air. They agreed to this year’s coverage after the HFPA finally committed to more diverse voters and an oversight committee. Whether or not they wish to show it again will depend on how this year’s event goes.
