It should be noted that each of these internet-based live TV providers offer free trials for new subscribers, so there’s no reason to miss out on the Golden Globes action this weekend.

Additionally, the 78th Golden Globe Awards will be available to stream Monday, March 1 on NBC’s Peacock streaming platform, according to a Deadline report.

Philip grew up in Louisiana (not New Orleans) before moving to St. Louis after graduating from Louisiana State University-Shreveport. When he's not writing about movies or television, Philip can be found being chased by his three kids, telling his dogs to stop barking at the mailman, or chatting about professional wrestling to his wife. Writing gigs with school newspapers, multiple daily newspapers, and other varied job experiences led him to this point where he actually gets to write about movies, shows, wrestling, and documentaries (which is a huge win in his eyes). If the stars properly align, he will talk about For Love Of The Game being the best baseball movie of all time.
