The Golden Globes are set to air on CBS for the next five years, it was announced Monday (March 25).
The deal, which begins with the 2025 edition of the ceremony, will see the film and TV awards show air on CBS and stream live on Paramount+.
“CBS’ collaboration with the Globes for this year’s broadcast was a big win for both of us and established strong momentum for awards shows in 2024,” CBS CEO George Cheeks said in a statement. “The Globes is a one-of a-kind live event that adds another marquee special and valuable promotional platform to CBS’ annual calendar. I’m excited to expand the partnership with [chairman and CEO of Penske Media and Dick Clark Productions] Jay [Penske] and the entire team to continue to drive the Globes forward.”
Globes president Helen Hoehne added, “Today marks a significant milestone for the Globes as we solidify our partnership with CBS and Paramount+ for the next five years. We are incredibly proud of the audience we garnered in 2024 and look forward to building upon the immense success to make the 82nd annual Golden Globe Awards the best and most memorable show yet.”
The 2024 Golden Globes, which took place Jan. 7, saw Poor Things, Succession, Oppenheimer, The Bear and Beef among the night’s big winners.
“We’re so proud to continue to call CBS our home for the Golden Globes,” said Penske. “CBS stepped up for the Globes during a very challenging time, and inherently understood its value, while having the foresight, imagination and conviction to bring this iconic show to its many platforms. We’ve long admired CBS’ commitment to some of the greatest cultural live events and partnering for the long-term further cements this show’s legacy and incredible place in history.”

The Golden Globes telecast was something of a hot potato prior to this new deal. After the old iteration of The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, then in charge of the awards show, became persona non grata with industry publicists over accusations of bribery and much-publicized reports about a lack of diversity within the group, longtime broadcaster NBC put the 2022 telecast on ice. A slightly revamped show aired on NBC in 2023, fulfilling its contract. CBS aired the show in 2024 as a one-off. And while the reviews for the show were abysmal — thanks in large part to the hosting job by Jo Koy — the ratings were up and the guest list was wildly impressive. The telecast neared 10 million multiplatform viewers, up 50 percent from its final NBC outing.
That seems to have been enough to seal the deal for CBS. There’s also slightly less baggage these days, now that operation isn’t run by the HFPA. The group fundamentally disbanded in 2023. Dick Clark Productions now owns and produces the Golden Globe Awards. DCP is owned by Penske Media Eldridge, a joint venture between Penske Media Corporation and Eldridge that also owns Billboard and The Hollywood Reporter.

Hosted by comedian Jo Koy, the Globes reached the largest livestreaming audience for an awards show across Paramount+ and other CBS platforms since the 65th annual Grammy Awards in February 2023.
It was the second largest livestreamed CBS special event on Paramount+ ever in terms of AMA (average minute audience) and reach.
On social media, the Golden Globes dominated Sunday night with nearly 30 billion potential impressions, ranking as the No. 1 program of the night based on total interactions.
Three years ago, the Globes were rocked by scandal about a lack of diversity in the organization and ethical lapses. It was so bad that Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, who hosted that year for the fourth time, openly criticized the show while hosting the show. Fey said, “We all know awards shows are stupid. The point is, even with stupid things, inclusivity is important and there are no Black members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. … You have to change that.”
The 2021 show’s ratings plummeted, from 18.32 million viewers in 2020 to just 6.91 million viewers. That marked the first time the show’s viewership had dropped below 14 million viewers since it moved from TBS to NBC in 1996. Whether it was the controversy or the disruptive effect of the pandemic isn’t clear, but the ratings tanked, even in the hands of top-tier hosts like Fey and Poehler.
Two years ago, the Golden Globes were held as a private dinner, with no television or streaming component. It seemed like the show, which originated in 1944, might be too damaged to ever recover. But the idea of the show – a fun, loose event where seemingly every big star in film and TV (and sometimes music too) are jam-packed into one ballroom – was simply too good for Hollywood to let it go.
The show was back on NBC last year, but reached just 6.3 million viewers. This year it moved over to CBS for a show that lived up to its old reputation as Hollywood’s free-wheeling party of the year, with such A-listers as Meryl, Oprah, Taylor and Bruce in attendance.
The champagne that flowed so freely last night in the Grand Ballroom of the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif., is flowing again in offices at the Golden Globes and CBS. The show appears to have survived its brush with death.
Penske Media Corporation, Billboard’s parent company, is a part-owner of dick clark productions and has a partnership with Eldridge.
The 2024 Golden Globes had plenty of memorable moments that were televised, and even more but candid ones that were captured at the star-studded red carpet on Sunday (Jan. 8) at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.
One of those highlights was when Brie Larson — who was nominated for best performance by a female actor in a limited series, anthology series, or a motion picture made for television for Lessons in Chemistry — met Jennifer Lopez for the first time.
“I just try to be as present as possible because it’s the chance of a lifetime,” she said to Entertainment Tonight’s host Kevin Frazier just moments before encountering J.Lo. “You’re just surrounded by legends everywhere you look […] it’s hard to go ‘I’m not in a dream.’ I mean, I’m in my dream and I’m living my dream.”
In the midst of the interview, Frazier signals Lopez, who was standing next in line to be interviewed by ET, to start making her way up. Larson’s reaction was quick and genuine: “Oh my god, I’m going to cry. I can’t deal with JLo. I’m going to cry,” she said.
Immediately after, with Lopez in her baby pink dress standing in front of her, Larson broke down to tears and transformed into a fangirl. “You mean so much to me. I’m such a huge fan,” she said to Lopez, who also began to shed a tear. “I saw ‘Selena’ and it made me want to be an actor. You’ve always meant so much to me. It’s been a dream of mine so thank you so much. Your work ethic is so important.”
“How sweet is that? I’m going to cry,” Lopez told Frazier when Larson left. “It’s amazing when she brought up the movie ‘Selena,’ you know, so many years later it still touches people. It’s very moving to me too.”
The humbling gesture even reminded Lopez of who inspired her to want to pursue an acting career.
“I remember being a little girl and watching ‘West Side Story’ and Rita Moreno changing my life,” she recalled. “So to have someone say to me, ‘I watched ‘Selena’ and it made me want to be an actress’ it’s so moving. It’s like your dreams came true and it’s such a beautiful thing.”
