ABC - GOLDEN GLOBES TO RETURN TO SUNDAY NIGHTS

GOLDEN GLOBES TO RETURN TO SUNDAY NIGHTS

For the first time in three years, the Golden Globes ceremonies will return to Sunday night. After presumably be scared off by the overwhelming popularity of ABC's Desperate Housewives on that night, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and Dick Clark Productions, who are responsible for the NBC awards telecast, now say they can effectively compete with the Sunday night soap. Co-executive producer Barry Adelman announced that the next telecast will take place in Beverly Hills on January 13. "We want the show to get the best possible platform and be seen and enjoyed by the widest audience possible," he told Daily Variety. Asked whether the ceremonies will take place if the writers' strike continues through that date, Adelman said, "We'll be exploring all our options [in January] if that happens. ... We have our fingers crossed."
