I can't stomach the vast majority of awards shows, especially the Emmys. The lone exception to my disdain is The Golden Globes, largely due to the fact that everybody in the building appears to get thoroughly plastered as the evening unwinds. This year's edition of the Globes looks to have significantly upped its entertainment value by assigning host duties to none other than Ricky Gervais. His scathing irreverence will be a welcome bonus to the proceedings...
