I think it’s safe to say that unlike other years, we’re all well versed in what’s out there when it comes to series and films, with lockdowns around the world giving us the chance to watch more TV than ever before.
Whether or not that was healthy is a conversation for another time.
Actually no, I stand by my viewing habits – viva la television.
(Here, have some Netflix codes which unlock hidden content – you’re welcome.)
Anyway, this has given the 2021 Golden Globe nominations a little more weight, because we all have some strong opinions regarding who and what should be in the running for a globe.
I’m already disappointed.
Emily in Paris, a bit of fluff that I watched because there was nothing else on, got nominations for best series and best actress, while Spike Lee’s incredible Da 5 Bloods got no nominations at all.
I could go on, but I’m sure you want to find out for yourself if your favourites made the cut.
Here’s the full list of nominees, via CNN.
