The controversial Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the 2023 Golden Globes nominations, sparking debate over whether the troubled group’s awards mean anything at this point. 2022’s awards show was pulled by the network after an uproar over the HFPA’s complete lack of diversity, among over issues. HFPA vowed to fix things, and the 2023 ceremony will be a test to see if the Golden Globes and its voting body are beyond redemption.

The Banshees of Inisherin leads the list of film nominees, collecting eight nominations, including Best Picture – Musical/Comedy, Best Actor – Motion Picture, Musical/Comedy (Colin Farrell), and Best Director (Martin McDonagh). Abbott Elementary leads the list on the television side, picking up five including Best Musical/Comedy Series and Best Television Actress – Musical/Comedy Series (Quinta Brunson).

The 80th Annual Golden Globe Awards will air live on NBC and Peacock on Tuesday, January 10, 2023. Jerrod Carmichael has been tapped to host the three hour show.
