A great year at the Golden Globes indeed for newcomers, especially in television. Two of my favorite shows won: ‘Homeland’ & ‘Enlightened’. That’s a pretty good step from the Golden Globes: give a chance to the new ones. The rest of the winners weren’t that surprising and good for Meryl Streep for finally winning something. Hope she will win at the Oscars as well.
