2025 Golden Globe Awards Submissions Open, Ricky Kershner and Glenn Weiss Return as Showrunners
Today, the Golden Globes announced that submissions are now open for the 82nd Annual Golden Globe Awards airing on Sunday, January 5, 2025 (8:00-11:00 PM, live ET/5:00-8:00 PM, live PT) on the CBS Television Network, and streaming on Paramount+ in the U.S. The deadline for submissions is Monday, November 4, 2024.
Multi-Emmy Award-winning producing duo Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner of White Cherry Entertainment (WCE) will return as executive producing showrunners for the 82nd Golden Globe Awards. Dick Clark Productions will plan, host and produce the annual Golden Globe Awards, which has been viewed in more than 185 countries and territories worldwide and is the largest awards show in the world to celebrate the best of both film and television. No host has been announced yet.
Last season’s CBS broadcast, hosted for the first time by comedian Jo Koy and earning scathing reviews, averaged 10 million viewers (Nielsen Live+7-Day national ratings), up nearly +50% from the prior year and its largest audience since 2020 but far from its heyday of 20+ million viewers. The telecast was also the third-largest live-streamed CBS special event on Paramount+ ever in terms of AMA and reach.
Two new categories introduced last year, Best Stand-Up Comedy on Television and the controversial Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award will return this year. Productions are eligible for the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award if they earn a gross box office receipt total of at least $150 million worldwide during the qualifying year (of which $100 million must come from the U.S. domestic box office), and/or obtain commensurate digital streaming viewership according to recognized trusted industry sources within the qualifying year. Because of the November 4 deadline for submissions, productions that are released after November 22 may qualify based
on projected box office performance and/or streaming views from “recognized industry sources.”
