Golden opportunity wasted.

The Golden Globes were happening this weekend. While Ricky Gervais did not host, those talents went to Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, the entire night was a miss. Now, I usually enjoy the telecast no matter what, but when you have actors who don't even know who or what they are presenting, then it becomes an embarrassment.

With a month crowded of award shows, it is not likely for most people to pay much attention to all the award shows, except for the big ones. This used to be a big award show, but more recently the demeanor of the show has been down the drain. The most interesting shows is the Academy Awards, but even that is beginning to lose its audience.

Pretty soon, the award shows will be gone if they over populate the award season. The less awards out there, the more prestige they ensure. The same goes for indie festivals. Since there are a lot of film festivals, the awards for them, in my eyes, mean little.

Back to my original thought, the Golden Globes are becoming a shame of themselves.
