MAD-MEN-GLOBES

The few of us who survived the Golden Globes drinking game and Billy Bush saying retarded things were treated to an awards show that was faster and less full of itself than the Oscars. And also less memorable in every way. Ricky Gervais was a funny but woefully underused host, and, uhhh… I don’t really have a good way to finish that compound sentence. Things are kinda fuzzy for me, what with the drinking game and all. I vaguely remember being aroused by Sofia Vergara’s accent.

Anyway, I’ve got the full list of TV winners below.  Basically, “Mad Men” won for best drama, “Glee” won best comedy/musical, and Michael C. Hall won for having cancer. But that’s fine, he deserved a win — if not for “Dexter,” then certainly for “Six Feet Under.” I don’t have any huge quibbles with anything except the winners in the actress categories: Chloe Sevigny in “Big Love” for Supporting Actress, Julianna Margulies in “The Good Wife” for Lead Actress in a Drama, and Toni Collette in “United States of Tara” for Lead Actress in a Comedy. I like both Margulies and Collette, but I think there were far better candidates (see my picks here). As for Sevigny, the only thing she deserves is a push into speeding traffic. I’d rather get Michael C. Hall’s cancer than wake up next to her.
