So the Golden Globes are over and I'm going to take a few moments just to look at who got what.

Best Television Series - Drama
Winner: Mad Men
Nominees: Dexter, House, In Treatment, True Blood

In all honesty Mad Men is the only deserving show out of the ones listed here. Dexter's latest season was highly inconsistent, House is currently in one of the worst storylines it's ever had ("The Thirteen Show"), I can't comment on In Treatment except to say I wasn't impressed when I tried it and True Blood is just not award winning material yet.

I am disappointed The Shield didn't even get a look in here, but the nominations were a while ago so I won't say anything again.

Best Performance by an Actress In A Television Series - Drama
Winner: Anna Paquin - True Blood
Nominees: Sally Field – Brothers & Sisters, Mariska Hargitay – Law & Order, January Jones – Mad Men, Kyra Sedgwick – The Closer

In all honesty this list just shows how weak the television has been this year. Janurary Jones is the best one of the lot, but the rest are really meh nominations and Anna Paquin's win? Seriously? Please someone explain to me how she's put in the best drama performance in this year. Go on.

Best Performance by an Actor In A Television Series - Drama
Winner: Gabriel Byrne – In Treatment
Nominees: Michael C. Hall – Dexter, Jon Hamm – Mad Men, Hugh Laurie – House, Jonathan Rhys Meyers – The Tudors

From this list I would have put either Jon Hamm or Michael C. Hall up there, Jon's performance in Mad Men is nothing short of spectacular while Michael C. Hall remains the most magnetic thing in Dexter with great ease. But both of them paled behind three other male actors who I won't mention here.

Best Television Series - Musical Or Comedy
Winner: 30 Rock
Nominees: Californication, Entourage, The Office, Weeds

No surprises here to be honest, but I really cannot understand why Entourage is on the list at all.

Best Performance by an Actress In A Television Series - Musical Or Comedy
Winner: Tina Fey – 30 Rock
Nominees: Christina Applegate – Samantha Who?, America Ferrera – Ugly Betty, Debra Messing – The Starter Wife, Mary-Louise Parker – Weeds

Best Performance by an Actor In A Television Series - Musical Or Comedy
Winner: Alec Baldwin – 30 Rock
Nominees: Steve Carell – The Office, Kevin Connolly – Entourage, David Duchovny – Californication, Tony Shalhoub – Monk

Again with these two I can't really complain (except for Entourage's continued presence) and I can't really be surprised either. The industry loves 30 Rock

Best Mini-Series Or Motion Picture Made for Television
Winner: John Adams
Nominees: A Raisin In The Sun, Bernard And Doris, Cranford, Recount

Best Performance by an Actress In A Mini-series or Motion Picture Made for Television
Winner: Laura Linney – John Adams
Nominees: Judi Dench – Cranford, Catherine Keener – An American Crime, Shirley MacLaine – Coco Chanel, Susan Sarandon – Bernard And Doris

Best Performance by an Actor in a Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television
Winner: Paul Giamatti – John Adams
Nominees: Ralph Fiennes – Bernard And Doris, Kevin Spacey – Recount, Kiefer Sutherland – 24, Tom Wilkinson – Recount

Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Series, Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television
Winner: Laura Dern – Recount
Nominees: Eileen Atkins – Cranford, Melissa George – In Treatment, Rachel Griffiths – Brothers & Sisters, Dianne Wiest – In Treatment

Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Series, Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television
Winner: Tom Wilkinson – John Adams
Nominees: Neil Patrick Harris – How I Met Your Mother, Denis Leary – Recount, Jeremy Piven – Entourage, Blair Underwood – In Treatment

These five include a big sweep for John Adams and a single win for Recount. I expected Recount to do better, but if I'm honest I haven't watched John Adams so I can't really judge if it's a deserving winner. I'll have to get my hands on it some point. Yay for NPH!
