ratings were down 26% from the mostly recently televised ceremony in 2021. The 2022 Golden Globe awards weren’t televised as a result of the controversy surrounding the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the embattled organization behind the Golden Globes, after a Los Angeles Times exposé determined there was not a single Black member in the org and that some members were susceptible to bribery in exchange for nominations.

Eldridge Industries took over the Globes last summer following its efforts to reform during its 2022 hiatus.The HFPA also came under fire this year with actor Brendan Fraser’s rekindled accusations against former eight-term president Philip Berk.

Fraser accused Berk of sexually assaulting him in 2003. The actor has been a major awards contender in the 2022–23 film season and was nominated at the 2023 Globes for his role in A24’s “The Whale”; he did not attend the ceremony.While it remains unclear who will step in as a broadcast partner for the 2024 Golden Globes and beyond, the vacancy comes within a continually changing landscape.

Just in January, the Screen Actors Guild Awards signed a multiyear deal with Netflix to livestream the ceremony beginning in 2024..
