There are just two more sleeps until the 2020 Golden Globes, which airs on Sunday, January 5. And because this year is already in total chaos and disarray, Ricky Gervais has risen from his three-year hosting slumber to trigger us all with his tangiest zingers and zingiest japes. Imagine saying, “And the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture – Drama goes to … Joker.” Twisted.
Will Fiji Water Girl make another appearance? Will Taylor Swift and Andrew Lloyd Webber win for their Cats song “Beautiful Ghosts”? You’ll have to either read our coverage or tune in to find out — ideally both. You’ve already found your way to Vulture, so here’s how to do the second part.
Because the Golden Globes are decided on by the 90-ish member Hollywood Foreign Press Association, they can be less of an ironclad Oscars predictor and more of a fun excuse to see celebrities put on their Sunday clothes and party. Thus, the Globes red carpet is one of the best. Last year, it brought us the aforementioned Fiji Girl and one hilarious Lady Gaga interview. This year, the red carpet will begin livestreaming from the Beverly Hilton at 6 p.m. ET on the official Golden Globes Facebook page. If you happen to have cable and want to watch on television, E! is starting their red-carpet pregame at 4 p.m. with E! Countdown to the Red Carpet: The 2020 Golden Globe Awards. At 6 p.m., Ryan Seacrest and Giuliana Rancic will host the network’s live red-carpet coverage. At 7 p.m., NBC will air its Golden Globes Arrivals Special.
If you want to skip the red carpet and go straight for those sweet, sweet trophies, the NBC broadcast of the ceremony begins at 8 p.m. You can also livestream on the NBC app, providing you have a cable provider. If your cords don’t match your gems (which is to say they’re cut), there are plenty of free livestreaming options: You can sign up for a free seven-day trial of Hulu + Live TV or two free weeks of YouTube TV. If you’re a PlayStation Vue subscriber, it’s still operating until January 30, so you’ll be able to watch the Golden Globes, but you’ll have to find a new service in time for the Grammys and the Oscars. Such is life during the streaming wars!
