The 81st Golden Globe Awards took place Sunday night, rewarding the very best of movies and television from 2023.
Kicking off at 7 p.m. CST, the show was hosted by comedian Jo Koy, who proved to be an unpopular selection.
Koy announced during his monologue that he “got the gig 10 days ago” and was booed onstage multiple times as he aimed jokes at the films of the year.
The ceremony had many changes from previous years, namely being hosted on a new network — CBS, as opposed to NBC — and being the first held under new management from Dick Clark Productions.
After being hosted by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and seeing an abundance of controversy, the awards show attempted a comeback of sorts with the 2024 ceremony.

Additional major changes included the introduction of two new categories: Best Performance in Stand-Up Comedy on Television, won by Ricky Gervais for his role in “Ricky Gervais: Armageddon,” and Best Cinematic and Box Office Achievement, won by “Barbie.”
For nominations, hit films “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” headlined the night with nine and eight respectively. On the television side, “Succession” saw nine nominations while “The Bear” and “Only Murders in the Building” had five each.
“Oppenheimer” and “Succession” took big wins as predicted, with the father of the atomic bomb taking home five wins and the latter taking four. “Barbie” came away with two awards, while “The Bear” and “Beef” each took three.
