The Golden Globes are Cancelled!

January 7th, 2008 by James Cook | Source: Hollywood Foreign Press

The writing was already on the wall as recently the Screen Actors Guild let it be known that they didn’t want any actors going to the Golden Globes – the death blow for the show. The Hollywood Foreign Press had tried to brokerage a deal that would allow the WGA to be involved with the show, but alas they weren’t able to. So, The Golden Globes, as you’ve come to know them over the years, have been cancelled. Instead this is what you’ll be treated to when you tune in this Sunday.

At 7 pm we will air a Dateline with clips and interviews with nominees. (Currently scheduled to air for two hours on Saturday night.)

At 8 pm, we are negotiating with Dick Clark Enterprises for a one-hour retrospective/clip show.

At 9 pm [EST] there will be a press conference covered by NBC News announcing the Golden Globe winners. (9pm-10pm).

At 10 pm we will broadcast an “Access Hollywood” style, Golden Globes party show…visiting the various parties in Hollywood.

It’s not a shock at all that this has happened, but let’s just hope there’s some resolution come Oscar time.
