The Walkers’ own Golden Globe history
The scaled-down Golden Globes that I mentioned on Monday have been scaled down even further, to a mere 9 p.m. press conference. One of the ideas NBC and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association proposed doing but have apparently decided against is a news program on the history of the ceremony and memorable moments.
That doesn’t mean we can’t take our own walk down Golden Globe memory lane, stopping at those years in which the Walkers and their extended circle of family and friends have been nominated for or taken home the treasured statues. It’s a pretty impressive legacy, don’t you think?
