Golden Globes Gets Skewered As “New Low”

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.”

Neighbor’s Envy Leads to Destruction of Our Cherished 200-Year-Old Tree During Our Vacation

After returning from their holiday, Ronald’s family was heartbroken to find their cherished 200-year-old sequoia tree had been mysteriously cut down. This shocking discovery led them on a quest for answers, unraveling unexpected events that disturbed the peace in their neighborhood. Ronald, a 45-year-old man, has enjoyed a fulfilling life with his wife, Irene. They have been happily married for over twenty years and have two wonderful teenage daughters, Stella, 18, and Jill, 15. The girls bring immense joy to their lives, with Stella being independent and Jill known for her kindness.

The family lives in a charming manor divided into three units, surrounded by five magnificent sequoias, each about 200 years old. These trees are not just beautiful; they are a significant part of their family history and home. Things began to change when Barbara moved into the neighboring unit after inheriting her home from her late parents. At first, she seemed friendly, but her behavior took a turn for the worse two years ago after a storm knocked down one of her own sequoias. Since then, she became bitter and envious of Ronald’s family’s trees.

Irene often wondered if Barbara would ever move on from her anger. Ronald noticed Barbara’s agitation as she frequently complained that their trees overshadowed her home, claiming they blocked sunlight and were a danger. One day, while working in the garden, Barbara expressed her frustration, insisting that their trees had to go. Ronald tried to reassure her that the trees posed no threat, but Barbara was unyielding, declaring that they would regret not listening to her.

Despite dismissing her threats as mere complaints, everything changed when they returned from a lovely vacation in France. They were devastated to find their beloved sequoia chopped down, leaving behind a massive stump and two crushed oak trees. Irene was heartbroken, unable to understand how such an act could happen. Their daughters, Stella and Jill, were equally upset, shedding tears over the loss. Although they had no concrete proof, they suspected Barbara was involved.

When confronted, Barbara suggested that a storm might have caused the damage and even demanded $8,000 from them for the destruction and removal of the tree. Ronald was furious, pointing out that no storm had occurred recently. Barbara shrugged off their concerns and walked away, leaving them feeling defeated. However, Ronald remembered he had installed a wildlife camera and hurried to check the footage. He called for his family to come and see what he had found.

Gathered around the computer, they watched in disbelief as the video showed Barbara and two men using a chainsaw to cut down their sequoia. Irene was elated, realizing they finally had the proof they needed. The girls were resolute; Barbara would have to face the consequences of her actions. They quickly contacted their lawyer, and the next day, brought in a tree expert to assess the damage. His findings shocked them. The tree had been planted in 1860 and was one of only 60 remaining of its kind in the country. He warned them that the rotting roots could cause serious issues for their home’s foundation.

Irene was determined not to let Barbara get away with this and insisted they take action. Armed with video evidence, they filed a lawsuit against Barbara. Their attorney was confident that the proof would ensure their victory. The lawsuit demanded compensation for the extensive damages, totaling nearly $700,000, which included the cost to replace the sequoia and repair their property. In court, Barbara initially appeared self-assured, but her confidence crumbled when the video was shown.

The attorney argued that Barbara’s actions were intentional vandalism. Despite her lawyer’s attempts to argue otherwise, the judge ruled decisively in favor of Ronald’s family. Barbara was found guilty and ordered to pay $700,000 in damages. With no choice left, Barbara had to sell her home and leave the neighborhood. As she packed, Ronald and Irene watched from their porch, feeling a sense of justice and closure.

The financial compensation allowed them to pay off their mortgage and make improvements to their home, including a loft conversion and a modern kitchen. They even planted a new 60-year-old sequoia in their garden as a symbol of new beginnings and resilience. Using wood from the felled sequoia, they crafted a kitchen table, which served as a daily reminder of their family’s strength and unity.

When the Andersons moved into Barbara’s old home, they brought new energy to the neighborhood. They loved nature and quickly became friends with Ronald’s family. One morning, Mr. Anderson excitedly showed Ronald their new backyard setup with chickens, ducks, and pygmy goats. Life gradually settled back into a peaceful rhythm, filled with communal barbecues and joyful moments. Ronald and Irene often reflected on their ordeal, thankful for the outcome and the lessons learned.

They decided to start a neighborhood watch program to protect their local environment, bringing the community together. Ronald encouraged everyone to work together to prevent such tragedies in the future. Their home, once marked by conflict, became a symbol of resilience and community spirit. As Ronald looked around, he felt a deep sense of contentment. They had transformed a nightmare into a dream, showcasing the power of love, support, and determination.
