How to Watch Golden Globe-Nominated Films and Shows

Before we get to the Oscars, honoring the year's finest of the Hollywood big screen, and prior to seeing the Emmys, marking the top winners of the small screen, we have the Golden Globes, combining both film and television into one awards ceremony.
