Thanks to the ongoing writers' strike, shows like 24 have been indefinitely postponed much to everyone's disappointment - but on the other hand the Golden Globes might be cancelled too, so it all evens out.

The Golden Globes - the all-singing, all-dancing, glitzy, foreign-voted cousin to the Oscars - is set to take place on Sunday, but the writers' strike means that it will be boycotted by all the nominees if it gets televised by NBC as planned. And now the Hollywood Foreign Press Association is pushing NBC to not broadcast the awards at all so that the stars won't face picket lines on their way in. Of course, without cameras there to capture them in their pretty dresses and painstaking make-up jobs, there's a good chance that the cast of Desperate Housewives will disintegrate into clouds of dust at some point during the ceremony, but that's the chance they'll have to take.
