2022 Golden Globe-Nominated Screenplays. 

In February 2021, seven days before NBC's broadcast of the 78th Golden Globes, the Los Angeles Times published an exposé revealing that there were no Black members among the Globes' 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!

The 79th Golden Globe Awards nominations were announced on December 13, 2021 by Snoop Dogg and the Globes' president. The ceremony was scheduled to take place on Sunday, January 9, 2022, with or without TV coverage. These scripts will be available on the internet for a limited time only:

Globes ceremony on Sunday: no red carpet, no celebrities, no NBC broadcast, no livestream. The NY Times wrote that the event would take place at "9 p.m. Eastern time (6 p.m. Pacific) in the ballroom of the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills." But my mouse was over "ballroom" and it looked like "bathroom"... seemed about right. ;-)

2:00pm 1/7 Update: https://www.thewrap.com/the-golden-globes-are-putting-on-a-show-and-hollywood-cant-figure-out-why
"[...] The question is whether the HFPA is doing anything to help its rehabilitation by insisting on an in-person show. Granted, the group’s interim CEO, hedge fund billionaire Todd Boehly, has the financial incentive and the connections to push for an all-is-forgiven reception from the industry; he has an ownership stake in the Beverly Hilton and in MRC [producer of the 2021 telecast], which has a publishing joint venture with Penske Media that operates The Hollywood Reporter, Variety and Deadline. But Sunday night’s unseen ceremony hardly seems to be a way to move the needle. [...]"
