Screenwriting : 2022 Golden Globe + Critics Choice Screenplay Nominations by Alan C. Baird

In February 2021, seven days before NBC's 78th Golden Globes broadcast, the Los Angeles Times published an exposé revealing that there were no Black members among the Globe's 87-member votership. The ensuing scandal led to record-low ratings and many celebrity callouts. The network declared in May that it wouldn't air the Globes in 2022. Meanwhile, the Critics Choice Awards organization was working feverishly behind the scenes to capitalize on the situation, and present itself as a credible alternative on The Road To The Oscars. The CCAs announced their show would air on January 9, 2022, and were reportedly looking to secure the Beverly Hilton Hotel, where the Globes have been held for several decades. No dice. The Globes allegedly blocked CCA's access to the venue. For many months, it was assumed the Globes would not be a factor this year. Then, in October, the Globes announced they would hand out awards on -- you guessed it -- January 9, 2022. Where? If an award is presented without television coverage, does it make a sound? Plus, nobody knows if Hollywood heavyweights would even accept Golden Globe awards this year. Are the statuettes tainted? When placed on a celebrity's mantel, would they smell bad? Tom Cruise has already returned his three Golden Globe trophies. The CCA ceremony was postponed on December 22, due to public health concerns. Does this play into the hands of the Globes? Stay tuned for the latest move in this intricate game of 3-D chess!
