2016 Golden Globe Awards Winners: Full List
By Angie Han/Jan. 10, 2016 5:00 pm EST
This year’s ceremony is hosted by Ricky Gervais, who previously emceed for three consecutive years from 2009 to 2011. His very presence promises some naughty, off-color jokes, while the strong list of contenders suggests we’re in for some major ups and downs. So buckle up, strap in, and click through to join us as we live-blog our way through the 2016 Golden Globes winners.
8:00: That full glass of beer says Ricky Gervais is ready.
8:01: … And there’s the requisite Sean Penn El Chapo joke.
8:02: … And there’s the requisite Caitlyn Jenner joke.
Jane Fonda, Youth
Jennifer Jason Leigh, The Hateful Eight
Helen Mirren, Trumbo
Alicia Vikander, Ex Machina
Uzo Aduba, Orange Is the New Black
Joanne Froggatt, Downton Abbey
Regina King, American Crime
Judith Light, Transparent
- Maura Tierney, The AffairBest Performance by an Actress in a Television Series – Comedy or Musical* Rachel Bloom, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
Jamie Lee Curtis, Scream Queens
Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Veep
Gina Rodriguez, Jane the Virgin
Lily Tomlin, Grace and Frankie
Thoughts: Gina Rodriguez won this prize last year, so it seems appropriate that Rachel Bloom — Rodriguez’s successor to the “breakout star of a critically acclaimed but criminally underseen freshman CW series” mantle — should take it this year.Best Television Series – Comedy or MusicalCasual* Mozart in the JungleOrange Is the New BlackSilicon ValleyTransparentVeepThoughts: Mozart in the Jungle may not be the obvious pick here, but the HFPA does love shiny new things.Best Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for TelevisionAmerican CrimeAmerican Horror StoryFargoFlesh and Bone* Wolf Hall
See, Chiwetel Ejiofor laughed in that #TheMartian clip, and that’s how you know it’s a comedy. #GoldenGlobes

David Oyelowo, Nightingale
Mark Rylance, Wolf Hall
Patrick Wilson, Fargo
Alan Cumming, The Good Wife
Damien Lewis, Wolf Hall
Ben Mendelsohn, Bloodline

- Christian Slater, Mr. RobotThoughts: Christian Slater is officially no longer a “show killer.“Best Original Score
Carter Burwell, Carol
Alexandre Desplat, The Danish Girl
- Ennio Morricone, The Hateful Eight
Daniel Pemberton, Steve Jobs
Ryuichi Sakamoto and Alva Noto, The Revenant
Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series – Drama* Jon Hamm, Mad Men
Rami Malek, Mr. Robot
Wagner Moura, Narcos
Bob Odenkirk, Better Call Saul
Liev Schreiber, Ray Donovan
Thoughts: Jon Hamm’s win for Mad Men is well deserved. He did call Don Draper a “horrible person,” a few months after Daniel Craig said similar things about James Bond. Is disowning one’s signature character the hot new trend?

Christian Bale, The Big Short
Steve Carell, The Big Short
- Matt Damon, The Martian
Al Pacino, Danny Collins
Mark Ruffalo, Infinitely Polar Bear
Thoughts: The Martian’s miscategorization as a comedy still bugs, but Matt Damon truly did stellar work. It’s tough to argue he doesn’t deserve it.Best Animated Feature FilmAnomalisaThe Good Dinosaur* Inside OutThe Peanuts MovieShaun the Sheep Movie
Fun Fact: #InsideOut’s #GoldenGlobes win is Pixar’s 7th win in 10 years, but the first since Brave in 2013. pic.twitter.com/lcQS2xkXoC

Idris Elba, Beasts of No Nation
Mark Rylance, Bridge of Spies

- Sylvester Stallone, CreedThoughts: Maybe even better than watching Sylvester Stallone win for Creed, is watching how happy everyone else in the room looks to see Sylvester Stallone win for Creed. He literally got a standing ovation.
9:22: Didn’t even notice in the moment, but…
Did Sly Stallone not thank Ryan Coogler or Michael B. Jordan?

Well. I’m gonna go ahead and thank RYAN COOGLER + MICHAEL B. JORDAN since no one else is. Thank you, brothers. Good work. #smh #goldenglobes

Winners make these oversights all the time in the madness of the moment, but it still seems bizarre that Stallone would forget to recognize two of the men who made his win possible.
9:27: Scandal averted: word is Stallone went back to correct his mistake.
Best Screenplay – Motion Picture
During the commercial break, Sly Stallone returned to thank Ryan Coogler and the cast of CREED. #GoldenGlobes
