Give Gervais the Hook; Show All Right ***
16 January 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Observations of the award show: Some of the winners had to walk a great distance to the podium when their names were called out as the winners. The area to walk was very narrow. In NYC, Mayor Bloomberg would have closed the place down as this has to be a fire violation.

Ricky Gervais is unbelievably nasty. He really hits below the belt. He knocks just about everyone and his comments are not exactly flattering. He made some real crude remarks. On the last 2 Golden Globe awards before this ceremony, he passed some anti-Jewish nasty remarks which I didn't appreciate.

Jesse Eisenberg, nominee for "The Social Network," was very subdued and seemed to be in deep thought. Johnny Depp and Brad Pitt were constantly chewing gum. Anyone know why Geoffrey Rush was wearing a hat? I hope he is not ill.

The best song nominees should have been stretched out as they do at the Oscars.

Robert DeNiro really stole the evening with his hilarious acceptance speech while getting the Cecil B. DeMille Award.

Mrs. Schroeder losing the supporting award for his excellent portrayal as Steve Buscemi's live-in in "Boardwalk Empire" was a complete surprise.

Stop with the music already to alert winners to get off. Most ignore the warnings anyway. It's quite rude to do that. The show ran under a little less than 3 hours anyway.
