I have no interest in the red carpet. That's why we didn't turn the TV on until the awards started.
Award season is like a sport for us. Tom and I make annual predictions for Oscar noms and winners (oscarwatch.com has a contest, and we have our own mano-a-mano contest, though we almost always pick the same winners independently of each other. Like minds.)
So we always watch the Globes because, for oscar-watchers, it is important for picking up signals (obvious ones, and subtle ones) about possible Oscar repercussions.
Plus, Hugh Laurie says things like "they smell of new-mown grass."
