The Golden Globes revealed today that they will be adding four new television categories for supporting performances, which will be implemented for the 80th Golden Globe Awards, set for January 10, 2023. Previously, the supporting categories combined musical/comedy, drama and limited series into one but now will be replaced with musical/comedy and drama together and limited or anthology series on its own. The categories are still broken down by actor and actress.
The new category breakdowns:
Continuing from last year is the lack of requirement for studios and networks to screen or submit for consideration for both television and motion picture. Each motion picture and television project will automatically be eligible as long as it was released during the calendar year of 2022 (or during the longer eligibility window applicable to non-English language motion pictures). All eligible motion pictures and television programs will be included in the reminders list, which is overseen by a select panel that has been assembling a breakdown of all products released throughout the year, and an assignment of relevant categories. Studios, networks, and streamers also will have the option to submit their suggestions for specific categories but the decision will ultimately be made by the panel, which has overturned film category submissions from comedy to drama and actor submissions from supporting lead many times.
This eliminates the possible scenario of a potential dearth of submissions due to the ongoing controversies that the Globes and their parent, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) have been battling for the last two years. While several studios and networks have signaled the changes the HFPA have made to expand and improve diversity within the awards side of the group (splitting the two into a for-profit and a non-profit org earlier this year, upending their board, adding 103 new voting members), after last year’s non-attended, private Golden Globe ceremony, the group is taking no chances. NBC, who holds the rights to air the Globes, approved a one-year deal for the awards show to return to television, which will air live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California on Tuesday, March 10 on NBC and stream on Peacock for the first time.
