GOLDEN GLOBE NOMINATIONS ARE HERE!!!

Hot on the heels of the SAG Awards, the Hollywood Foreign Press announces this year's nominees for the coveted, if not totally rigged, Golden Globes!!! FINALLY KRISTEN WIIG GETS COME LOVE, PEOPLE!!!! She could even win if the stars are aligned. Probably not. Glad to see Bridesmaids nominated in the Best Picture, Comedy/Musical group. However, I am appalled that The Good Wife is not nominated for Best TV Series, Drama. WTF is that? That show is quite possibly the most well written and acted show on television and for it not to be nominated makes this show look pretty stupid, IMHO. OH, and Madonna got a nod for her song from W.E. Masterpiece in the Best Original Song category. Yay!! Anyway...... Okay, check out the noms below. My picks, if I have one, are in BOLD.
