No matter what the sort of pop culture in which you prefer to steep your brain cells, tonight’s Golden Globe Awards ceremony seems like it’ll have your interests covered. Across its swath of categories celebrating the production, writing, and acting in 2016’s movies and television shows, this year’s Globes have tossed nods at prestige pictures and comic book romps alike, alongside both heady sci-fi thrillers and trippy dark comedies about the underground hip hop world.
No doubt, many of us in the Nerdist world are heading into tonight’s ceremony championing underdogs like Deadpool, Atlanta, and Stranger Things, among others. Even if our predictions don’t quite align with our hopes for how the night will play out, it’s nevertheless encouraging and invigorating to root for the sort of films and series that don’t often get their due in the awards circuit.
As we’ve all lamented the Oscar’s seemingly compulsive aversion to genre fare, ditto the Emmy’s tendency to recognize the same television shows year after year (hell, I think Frasier is still getting nominated), the very idea of seeing unexpected titles tossed into consideration makes the Globes worth tuning into. So, fellow devotees of the unheralded, we hope you’ll ditch your cynicism and root for the stuff you love. Even if, say, your favorite feature about a foul-mouthed super vigilante isn’t on the fast track to a trophy, it at least deserves your emphatic tweets about why it deserves our attention.
And who knows? We might all be surprised. Check below as we update our Golden Globe Awards winners list live throughout the ceremony.
