How to watch the Golden Globes: Your guide to nominations, time, host and more

The Golden Globes formally invites you to ... give them another chance.
After a few years of self-inflicted scandal, the first big awards show of the season returns Sunday, Jan. 7, on a new network (CBS instead of NBC), with new for-profit owners (Eldridge Industries and Dick Clark Productions), a presumably kinder, gentler host (comedian Jo Koy) and a pronounced distancing from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (that entity is now dissolved and known as the Golden Globe Foundation).
The seasonal staple was known for decades as a fun and boozy romp for celebrities who picked up shiny statues they hoped would lead to the far more golden Oscar a few weeks down the road. The standard fare included televised scenes of A-listers mixing and mingling as well as brutally irreverent show hosts (looking at you, Ricky Gervais) who seemed to confuse the telecast for a roast.

But then a 2021 Los Angeles Times report highlighted the lack of diversity among the HFPA's 87 members (as in, no Black members at all). That led to actor and studio boycotts of the Globes and, ultimately, to NBC opting not to renew its contract. Today, the Golden Globes Foundation reports that it has more than 300 member journalists from around the world, of whom half are ethnically and racially diverse.
Here's where to watch the 81st Golden Globes
After a shift last year to a Tuesday night, the Golden Globes are back on a Sunday with an auspicious NFL game lead-in featuring the Cleveland Browns and the Cincinnati Bengals
The show will air on CBS (8 p.m. ESST) live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel. The ceremony will also be available on the CBS app and will stream on Paramount+. Note, however, that only Paramount+ subscribers who have Showtime can stream the event live; others can watch the show there the next day.
Who is hosting the 81st Golden Globes?
Comedian Jo Koy will do the honors, following in the footsteps of last year's host, comedian Jerrod Carmichael. (Acknowledging the HFPA's troubles, Carmichael joked at the top of the show, "I'll tell you why I'm here. I'm here 'cause I'm Black.")
Koy has several Netflix stand-up specials to his name, and also starred in the 2022 movie "Easter Sunday." He is likely to take a less caustic approach to his hosting duties than past Globes emcees, who include Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, and the always-snarky Gervais.
“We are thrilled to have Jo host and bring his infectious energy and relatable humor to kick off Hollywood’s award season," Globes president Helen Hoehne said in a statement. "We can’t wait to see what he has in store."
Who is nominated for 2024 Golden Globes?
The Globes differ vastly from the Oscars in ways that go well beyond the more casual nature of the soirée. The Globes not only give out awards for both film and television, but they dispense with craft categories and split big movies into two distinct camps. That's precisely what will allow the year's two big films, "Barbie" and "Oppenheimer," best known as "Barbenheimer," to both shine on Sunday.
Greta Gerwig's splashy "Barbie" is a cool favorite in its category, best musical or comedy, while Christopher Nolan's sobering nuclear bomb epic could take top honors in best drama. "Barbie" has nominations in nine categories, including best actress and supporting actor in a musical or comedy, for Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, respectively. "Oppenheimer" has eight nominations, including best director and best actor for Cillian Murphy.
A new Globes category − best cinematic and box office achievement − is likely to reward pop icon Taylor Swift, whose globe-shaking "The Eras Tour" movie propelled her to billionaire status in 2023, while helping revitalize the movie theater industry in the process.
Top TV shows that may win statues include HBO's "Succession" and Hulu's "The Bear."
