Last night’s Golden Globes were good.  They just weren’t quite what I had expected. Ricky Gervais is hilarious.  His jokes are usually a hit.  This isn’t his first hosting gig for crying out loud.  So what the hell went wrong?

Ricky Gervais Gets Censored For The Golden Globes?

I think the easy answer is that Ricky picked on all the wrong stars.  He chose the ones without a sense of humor anywhere near his.  The opening monologue left him completely cold.  Aside from the boo-ish groans, it was like crickets in the laugh department.  Sure, there were some sympathy laughs, but that’s about it.

I felt bad for him.  Picking on Mel Gibson would have been a hoot.  Bashing Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie… not so much.
