Its my favorite time of year: awards season, which celebrates the best of film and television from the past 12 months. Like many entertainment lovers, this Sunday Ill be watching the Golden Globes for the fashion, the jokes, the critics picksand of course, the winners, as the Golden Globe stats are a pretty good precursor to who will be taking home an Oscar two months from now.The 82nd Annual Golden Globe Awards will air live on Sunday, January 5, at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT), hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser, who will be the first woman to host the Globes on her own (Amy Poehler and Tina Fey cohosted four times). Despite being the show that kicks off awards season, the Golden Globes is no stranger to controversy. In 2021, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which created the once-venerable Golden Globes organization, was publicly criticized for a lack of Black representation among its members. In response, NBC canceled the 2022 Golden Globes telecast. In 2023, the star-studded ceremony was backbut not before the HFPA sold the Golden Globes to Dick Clark Productions, and in a complete restructuring, dissolved its membership. Fast-forward to January 2025: Enter Glaser, hot off the heels of Netflixs roast of Tom Bradyfor which she got a standing ovation and became one of the most viral moments of 2024. Glasers no shrinking violet, but dont expect her to pull a Jo Koy, last years host, who bombed with a few too many crude jokes at the expense of his star-packed audience. (One target thatll likely be off limits, fingers crossed: the lawsuit-laden feud between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni.)Among the many presenters at theworlds largestawards show (a well-deserved moniker since it celebrates the best of both film and television):Andrew Garfield, Anthony Mackie,Ariana DeBose, Aubrey Plaza, Awkwafina, Colin Farrell, Jeff Goldblum, Brandi Carlile,Demi Moore, Elton John,Margaret Qualley,Michelle Yeoh, Viola Davis,Zo Kravitz . . . and pretty much any celebrity you can think of from a slew of buzzy performances on both the small and large screens.And now, without further ado, what youve been waiting for: Here, how to watch the Globes live on your computer, mobile device, or TV.CBSThe telecast will air live on CBS.
