NBC’s GOLDEN GLOBE Night Tanks!! TERMINATOR Makes Biggest Debut Of Season!!

I am – Hercules!!

Has America suddenly stopped caring what Munawar Hosain of Action Press, Ahmed Lateef of BR International, Yenny Nun Katz of Cosas Magazine, Ray Acro of Curentul, Elisa Leonelli of Gioia, Glenda Stewart of Hot Spots Magazine, Elmar Biebl of International Media Agency, Yani Begakis of Lady International, Ika Panajotovic of Novosti, Gloria Geale of PWA International, Noel deSouza of Dolphin Press and Karen Martin of Rex Features choose as best movies and movie peformances of the year?

The ratings for last night’s “Golden Globes” special on NBC, which unveiled the picks of these people, were “rock-bottom,” according to TV Week.

One might be led to believe that people tune in to the “Golden Globes Awards” more to stare at movie stars (all of whom steered clear of the Globes this year) than learn what the “journalists” comprising the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) think of the prior year’s crop of movie and TV shows.

If it makes the HFPA feel any better, the American viewing audience probably wouldn’t watch even if the so-called “foreign press” of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association represented bigger and perhaps more respected foreign outlets Times of London, Der Spiegel, Le Monde, The Times of India, the BBC, the China Times, Yomiuri Shimbun or the Sydney Morning Herald.

With no celebs bigger than Mary Hart on the “Globes” telecast, competition flourished, and how.

Fox’s “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles” apparently scored the highest-rated scripted broadcast debut in three years and the season's biggest debut in any format, besting even the muscular launch of “American Gladiators” earlier this month.

CBS’ “Comanche Moon” premiere racked up the largest audience for any movie on any network in more than two years, according to TV Week.

Find the numbers and read all of TV Week’s story on the matter here.
