10 Reasons These Were the Second Best Golden Globes Ever

I figured I’d spend my Sunday evening watching 24 and then fast forwarding through the Golden Globes but it turned out that Jack Bauer had to wait for the most part while the surprisingly captivating award ceremony played out. I’d say this was the best Globes ever but the unfortunate tribute to El Hacko, Steven Spielberg, but a bit of a damper on the event. Anyway here are the moments that made the night for me.

10. Tina Fey stepping to Babs in La Crosse.

9. Kate Winslet finally winning not one but two awards in the same night.

8. Tracy Morgan’s acceptance speech for 30 Rock. Take that Cate Blanchett!

7. All the love for 30 Rock! I didn’t forget you Alec!

6. Amy Pohler. Her presence and enthusiasm should be a requirement for all award shows.

5. Colin Ferrell’s’ speech and his snort based humor.

4. Mickey Rourke’s victory, and subsequent acceptance speech.

3. Mickey Rourke almost wiping out on the steps.

2. Heath Ledger’s win for Best Supporting Actor.

1. Ricky Gervais and his comedy bit. Not sure how that all came about, but thank you Globe producers for giving Gill Cates and his Oscar team a taste of what they’ll be missing by giving Wolverine their hosting duties.
