Meanwhile, b(l)ack at the Golden Globes, the first awards show of the 2021 season is done & dusted, and its fair to say we can only hope these shows get better.
If the 2020 Golden Globes was marked by the crass, ‘bite the hand that feeds you’ humor of then host Ricky Gervais; this bi-coastal, dependent on technology, 2021 version hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, can at best be called tone deaf and full of glitches. To be fair, the glitches with the WiFi signal come with the territory, but the inert weakness of addressing the bull in the china shop – that there are no Black HFPA (Hollywood Foreign Press Association) members – is all too glaring, and shouldn’t even be an issue in this day and age. But the fact that it is, made it the running commentary of this years Awards show.
