The nominations were just announced this morning. Not too many surprises- Johnny Depp, George Clooney. No nomination for Nicole Kidman though, which will surprise some people. What do you think of the Golden Globes? Will you watch the awards show?

I always enjoy watching awards shows, they can be fun.

I always watch when they get there. I like seeing what everyone's wearing but I rarely watch the actual show. Having to sit through 6 hours of everyone thanking God and their mothers is just a bit much for me.

I did like it one year when Jay Leno sent Ross the Intern to the Emmys or something to interview the celebs. It's on YouTube if you want to watch it.

I completely agree. WAYYYY too drawn out. I don't even watch to see the outfits and the hair anymore. I read the results online the next day.

If I do watch the show, it will probably take me all of 15 minutes because I will TiVo it and skip through all of the announcements, clips, speeches, and commercials. But I probably won't. There's just no need. I will definitely check the results online the day after, and anything newsworthy from the award show will show up on youtube so I can catch the clip there.

I am actually quite interested to see the results in the television categories. I was delighted to see Dexter, Pushing Daisies, Californication, and Extras all receive nominations of some sort.

The only award show I really do enjoy sitting through is the Tonys. But even then, I only watch the lip-synced performances and the announcing of the winners.
