It is almost as though people in Hollywood care more about the size of the audience than the loudness of the whining!

I only watched part of the Gold Globes awards. I had not seen any of the movies or TV shows mentioned. Or, for that matter, heard about them. The funniest thing Gervais said was probably the very long bit that was totally blanked out.

I totally missed this bit but some reporter saw it:

Gervais joked that the Globes “are just like the Oscars, but without all that esteem. The Globes are to the Oscars what Kim Kardashian is to Kate Middleton. A bit louder, a bit trashier, a bit drunker and more easily bought. Allegedly. Nothing’s been proved.”

He also needled early winners, saying the show was running long and stars needed to keep their speeches short.

“You don’t need to thank everyone you’ve ever met or members of your family, who have done nothing,” Gervais said. “Just the main two. Your agent and God.”

That was funny.
