Wow... Accidently caught this list (TiVo'ed, was planning on watching SOME of the Globes when I got home tonight).



But the first thing that jumps out at me is Gina Davis. I have tried and tried to like this show. My college degree (though I don't work anywhere NEAR the field) is in Government (concentrating on the Presidency), so I've always gotten a kick out of fictional portrayals of the White House. But no matter how hard I try, I can't get into this show, and I think the main reason is because I don't like Gina Davis's President Adams. She's just not believable... Its like she's trying to hard. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Gina Davis, but I am REALLY suprised at this award... I was really pulling for Sedgwick, but expected Close (from my Alma Mater) to take it home.

It makes me a little wary that a couple of the actors have been nominated for both Emmys and Golden Globes, but have lost. (Excuse the pun.) While the competition has been fierce, that tells me that Lost is winning on the merits of its writing and production values, not the likeability of its stars. Popular actors can carry a show through a dry spell o two, but when the actors aren’t causing a stir and the material hit’s a lull, the show is not long for this world. That has to put the writers and producers under a tremendous amount of pressure.

I am SO happy for Sandra Oh and Mary-Louise Parker for their wins. Especially Sandra Oh, she's fabulous in Gray's Anatomy. But Geena Davis? WTF?! Seriously, she's like the weakest link on Commander-in-Chief.



Also a big, huge yey for Hugh Laurie. Not only is he dreamy, he's SO fantastic in the role of House. Awesome! Hopefully this means that House will stay on air for seasons and season to come :D

I think it's awesome that Steve Carell won for the office. It is starting to get some recognition and rising in the ratings. Hopefully we'll have a wonderful outlook for the future of the show



Hugh Laurie won for House that was also a beautiful not to a wonderful albeit formulaic show. I'm happy that the globes go past what's popular and recognize the little guys.

It is so great that Hugh Laurie won for House. He does such a great job. I am glad to see a list of new winners finally. Haven't seen Gina Davis in Commander in Chief up against something else I watch.

As far as Lost haven't been able to get into this season...so much changed which I guess for the writers must be working since they won a Globe.

Hooray for Hugh Laurie. And how great that Stephen Fry was sitting with him at the table.

I'm so glad Mary Louise Parker won! She's a great actress and it's too bad Weeds is on HBO and doesn't have as much exposure as the other shows. But of course, my favorite is that Steve Carell won for The Office! That show kicks ass.

Was psyched about Steve Carell, even though I also love Jason Lee. Sick of the Desperate Housewives and don't understand why they would win for comedy, as well as a season that I keep hearing is horrible.



However, Jeremy Piven was ROBBED. Love Paul Newman, but he wasn't that great in that miniseries. Piven rocks that role.

Why don't they ever have a category for best dressed at the Globes?

After all, you're impeccably dressed, shouldn't you get awarded for it?

Better yet, why doesn't anyone ever say, "I'd like to thank my stylist because without her I wouldn't look as great as I do?"

Finally, I always wonder..."What would happen if someone just said, "Gee, I deserve this award, and I have no one to thank, but myself."

What would happen then? You must admit that would be funny.

I wonder..."Does anyone ever thank their stylist?" I mean, without their stylist they probably would buy something from a cheap dollar store and look really funny.

Furthermore, I thought..."Does anyone ever NOT thank someone and just say, "I have no one to thank, but, me, myself and I?"

Finally, is it just me that thinks this, or shouldn't they have an award that goes to the "best" dressed celeb?

...Just a thought!

I enjoy Commander in Cheif. It's one of the rare shows you can watch with your hubby and not have to explain a scene or comment that your suppose to be sleep child happened in on. Gina is doing great and i hope the show finds its audience and stay on for years like them other shows that are kept on (for God knows what)that you thought were off the air but they're now celebrating their 100th episode!
