What Were Your Favorite Moments at The Golden Globe Awards Ceremony?

Did you watch the Golden Globes on Sunday night? After all the hype leading up to Ricky Gervais' second time as the "naughty" host who would say anything, I thought his performance was rather tame. Over the years, the Golden Globes have started to surpass the Academy Awards as the live television event where anything might happen. The setting is less formal, and with all the stars swigging champagne around dinner tables, the potential for cringe-inducing (or heartfelt) comments is huge.

Sorry, Jane, I just found this post. I hate missing your posts, DARN IT! Anyhow, I haven't watched an awards show in years. No joke! Now I feel so left out of everything. Sheesh!

But I wish I could have seen "naughty" Ricky Gervais, I so like him. Oh-well, maybe this years I can get back into watching a little more TV. I am just afraid of getting hooked. LOL!

Big virtual hugs, my dear friend,

~Virginia

While my favorite was on the list - Ricky Gervais, of course - I had to comment because it didn't specify the jokes. My favorite was when he told the audience that the winners blabbed on listing too many people they wanted to thank. According to him, he would only need to thank -two- people. His agent and God! Why? Because, they both had the same effect on his career. (None, naturally because for anyone who doesn't already know this he is a diehard atheist). LOL.

That was a great line! I could have made a poll that was nothing but favorite Ricky Gervais jokes.
