Golden Globes Live

It seems like just yesterday award show season folded up its tents and rolled up its red carpets. However, it seems producers are planning for next year's shows already. The 2010 Globes will be broadcast live coast to coast, getting rid of that pesky 3 hour delay over here on the west coast. Previously, networks enforced the delay to boost ratings in later slots, but I think it's a great idea to broadcast live. By the time the people on the east have finished watching, information of the winners and mishaps has already been disseminated all over the internet, giving us over in the west less of a reason to watch.

The Hollywood Reporter says that scheduling around the awards shows will be slightly different for next year, but it should be interesting to see the difference, if any, in ratings.
