It's that time of year. The few hours a year when the worlds of film and television come together in a drunken mess (well, until they reconvene at the SAG Awards in two weeks). Yes, it's Golden Globes time people. And if anyone can throw a party, er, find movie studios and networks to pay for fabulous parties it's the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Using our connections with those that are the "inside" of the approximately 80-something member organization and our ability to predict the HFPA's need to please everyone, HitFix's Executive Editor Daniel Fienberg and I present you our predictions for the 70th Golden Globe Awards.
Just remember, this year's all about Tina Fey and Amy Poehler hosting. The winners really won't influence this year's Oscars let alone next September's Emmy Awards.
Check out our predictions in the gallery story embedded below and look for full coverage all day Sunday on HitFix including Fienberg's live-blog which might be as entertaining as the show itself.

January 13, 2013 at 11:29AM EST Reply to CommentI simply can't wait to watch Amy Poehler and Tina Fey!
I think just like Adele, Amy is a lock to win (a victory for "Girls" would be a better way to recognize Lena Dunham's multiple skills). It's going to be a huge night for HBO with "The Newsroom", "Girls" and "Game Change", I predict.
I love all the Comedy Actresses' work, but I would never bet any money on Sofia Vergara winning a Golden Globe: I can't imagine the HFPA folks laughing out loud at her hilarious accent. If I could, I'd vote for Breaking Bad, Jon Hamm and Claire Danes, Girls, Amy Poehler and Louis C.K., Maggie Smith and Max Greenfield.
