Shrinking Globes

The Golden Globes have always been good for some wacky celebrity drinking escapades and a little Oscar prognosticating. But it looks like the party element is about to take a hit, courtesy of the writers strike. The latest word is that the stars won't show next Sunday when NBC broadcasts the show.

I usually watch the Globes only because I have to, but suddenly my interest level has shot up. What will the cameras do in lieu of a drunken Nicholson shot? Will any B-listers dare cross the picket line? Might Conan come by and spin his wedding ring form laughs? It should be interesting, and let's face it, that's not a word often associated with this dog and pony show.

I personally think the SAG is being a bunch of whiners. It's like they're not going to a party because they're afraid they'll see someone who wasn't invited. But I'd like to see how this will play out come Oscar time, because those, you know, are REAL awards.

Actually I think it's a good show of solidarity. Crossing a picket line is no small thing, especially if it means offending the folks who have been writing your scripts.

And now, the Golden Globes has been reduced to a Golden Press Conference, to be televised by NBC. Good times.
