As Hollywood studios continue to see movie after movie fIop with audiences who want to be entertained by a compelling storyline rather than preached to by woke directors or shown CGI slop with no reaI plot, the Golden Globes this year were yet another humiliating disaster for the entertainment industry.
In fact, even sympathetic media outIets torched the Golden Globes, saying that they were mostly a disaster this year.
This year’s flop of a Golden Globes event was particularly bad for the industry given that, having been taken over from NBC by CBS, it was meant to be something of a reboot for the awards party and bring back a show generally known over the past few years for its declining ratings, if anything.
But rather than a revivaI, it was another flop for Hollywood, with even generally sympathetic media outlet Vanity Fair running a review of the event titled, The 2024 Golden Globes Were a Near-Total Disaster. Continuing, that review went on to describe host Jo Koy’s lengthy opening monologue as a horrid, sophomoric mishmash of lazy jokes” that didn’t elicit much laughter, a problem exacerbated by Koy being mostly unknown.
Similarly, the Iess sympathetic New York Post tore into the event as being a new low for an already troubled show, with a review article titled, Golden Globes 2024 were a new low for dying awards shows. Pulling no punches, the NYP article argued that it would have been better to cancel the event than run one so awful, saying:
Preparing for the 2024 Golden Globes, the awards show made a bunch of reforms to its ethically wobbIy voting body, got a new owner and moved to a different network. But none of those PR efforts matter much when the broadcast turns out as godawful as Sunday night’s did.
If only we’d 100% canceled the Globes when we had the chance.
Conservatives on X were simiIarly harsh. Washington Examiner personality Tim Young, for example, tore into the Golden Globes with a vengeance and said, “The Golden Globes had trash ratings… Perhaps people don’t want to tune in to woke, unfunny jokes about how white people are evil. Maybe their host should lecture at Harvard… I’m sure he’d be a hit there.”
Other posters noted that Jo Koy was a terrible host, saying things Iike “#GoldenGlobes Jo Koy is a terrible comedian, watching him tell jokes is so excruciating” and “i turned on the golden globes and had to turn it off bc the host is terrible.”

This heartwarming story shows the lasting impact of kindness and the unexpected rewards that come when we give selflessly. Gregory’s willingness to help Jack at a moment when Jack needed it most set off a beautiful chain of events that brought not just material gifts but also the priceless bond of family.
Gregory’s act of generosity—offering his plane ticket to a stranger so that Jack could be by his wife’s side—was a small but meaningful sacrifice, especially considering his own financial struggles. In return, Jack’s gratitude led to not only a thoughtful gift but also ongoing support and companionship, enriching both families’ lives. This gesture was more than just a reward; it was a way of expressing deep gratitude and honoring the kindness Gregory showed.
Jack’s gratitude exemplifies that true appreciation goes beyond mere words and can become a life-changing gift for everyone involved. By staying connected, helping with repairs, and making sure the Smiths have what they need, Jack has become like a son to the couple. His generosity fills a void they hadn’t anticipated, just as Gregory’s kindness provided him a chance to build a family-like bond with the Smiths.
This story teaches us that kindness, no matter how small it may seem, can create powerful connections. When we extend a helping hand, we may end up touching lives in ways we never imagined, creating relationships that add meaning, love, and joy.
