As Hollywood studios continue to see movie after movie fIop with audiences who want to be entertained by a compelling storyline rather than preached to by woke directors or shown CGI slop with no reaI plot, the Golden Globes this year were yet another humiliating disaster for the entertainment industry.
In fact, even sympathetic media outIets torched the Golden Globes, saying that they were mostly a disaster this year.
This year’s flop of a Golden Globes event was particularly bad for the industry given that, having been taken over from NBC by CBS, it was meant to be something of a reboot for the awards party and bring back a show generally known over the past few years for its declining ratings, if anything.
But rather than a revivaI, it was another flop for Hollywood, with even generally sympathetic media outlet Vanity Fair running a review of the event titled, The 2024 Golden Globes Were a Near-Total Disaster. Continuing, that review went on to describe host Jo Koy’s lengthy opening monologue as a horrid, sophomoric mishmash of lazy jokes” that didn’t elicit much laughter, a problem exacerbated by Koy being mostly unknown.
Similarly, the Iess sympathetic New York Post tore into the event as being a new low for an already troubled show, with a review article titled, Golden Globes 2024 were a new low for dying awards shows. Pulling no punches, the NYP article argued that it would have been better to cancel the event than run one so awful, saying:
Preparing for the 2024 Golden Globes, the awards show made a bunch of reforms to its ethically wobbIy voting body, got a new owner and moved to a different network. But none of those PR efforts matter much when the broadcast turns out as godawful as Sunday night’s did.
If only we’d 100% canceled the Globes when we had the chance.
Conservatives on X were simiIarly harsh. Washington Examiner personality Tim Young, for example, tore into the Golden Globes with a vengeance and said, “The Golden Globes had trash ratings… Perhaps people don’t want to tune in to woke, unfunny jokes about how white people are evil. Maybe their host should lecture at Harvard… I’m sure he’d be a hit there.”
Other posters noted that Jo Koy was a terrible host, saying things Iike “#GoldenGlobes Jo Koy is a terrible comedian, watching him tell jokes is so excruciating” and “i turned on the golden globes and had to turn it off bc the host is terrible.”
“Unbelievable!” Shocking Video Shows Toddlers Wandering on Texas Highway After Crash
A scary video going around online reminds us of how important it is to always keep kids properly strapped into their car seats.
The video shows two toddlers walking in the middle of a Texas highway after being thrown from a car in a crash on Sunday.
Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez confirmed that a two-car accident happened on Interstate 10 in Freeport on August 11. One car flipped several times, causing an adult and two small children to be ejected.
The video was first shared on Facebook, showing the children standing alone but only with minor scrapes.
After the crash, two men ran to help the toddlers and get them to safety.
The Harris County Sheriff’s Office said the investigation into the crash is still ongoing, and charges might be filed against the driver. It’s not clear if the kids were in car seats or properly restrained.
The children were taken to a hospital and are in serious but stable condition. The person in the other vehicle wasn’t hurt.
It’s a relief that the toddlers are okay, and many people are hoping they recover fully from this terrible accident.
