- Sunday's 2019 Golden Globes took place at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills and some of the winners raised eyebrows.
- "The Kominsky Method,""Bohemian Rhapsody," and Richard Madden are among the surprising winners of the night who left "The Good Place,""BlacKkKlansman," and Matthew Rhys snubbed.
The 2019 Golden Globes were held Sunday at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, and while some of the winners were spot on, including "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" for best animated picture, others were real head-scratchers.
Netflix swooped in with multiple wins for its new Chuck Lorre comedy, no one seemed to recognize, and "Bohemian Rhapsody" shockingly won the biggest award of the night.
INSIDER rounded up the biggest upsets of the evening and who deserved the win instead.
In no world is "Kominsky Method" a better comedy than "The Good Place."
If you were among the viewers at home wondering what Netflix's comedy starring Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin is about, you're not alone.
The show, from "Big Bang Theory" creator Chuck Lorre, has good reviews for its eight-episode first season, but it's not groundbreaking television. This one should have gone to NBC's almost-perfectly reviewed"The Good Place," which has some of the smartest writing on TV and constantly keeps audiences on their toes each week with new flips to the script that keep it fresh.
Did Michael Douglas really need a win for "Kominsky Method" as well?
We thought Douglas might surprise us with the win, but this was a shocker since Bill Hader won the Emmy for "Barry." If Hader wasn't going to nab the award, it seemed like a sure win for Donald Glover's excellent, underrated performance on FX's "Atlanta."
"Bohemian Rhapsody" may have one stand-out performance, but the biopic is mediocre compared to everything else it beat out.
Awards prediction site Gold Derby ranked the Fox biopic dead last to win in a stacked category featuring frontrunner "A Star Is Born" and powerful movies "Black Panther,""If Beale Street Could Talk," and "BlacKkKlansman."
Make no mistake, best actor winner for a drama, Rami Malek, is the best thing about "Bohemian Rhapsody," but it feels like a slap in the face when you have not one, but three powerful movies about Black culture nominated and you don't recognize any of them.
