I think spending less time on Instagram and Facebook (and muting about 20 per cent of my friends) is going to become key to my happiness in 2018. I am at the age where it is nothing but husbands, babies and new houses, and it’s insufferable.

Thanks so much for writing this.

Ghosting is so cruel and awful, I just can’t understand how anyone can do it. Especially given there are such easy ways of backing away from someone these days if you don’t want to keep seeing them - a text that simply says ‘sorry I’m just not feeling it, it was nice meeting you though’ or whatever would be so much

“Lurking butler” I will never not unsee this

I agree, it was jarring. It also seemed in bad taste to have a very explicit sex scene featuring this voiceless woman of colour, but to protect the modesty of the white women at the centre of the show by depicting all their sex off screen. It felt a bit exploitative to me, and unnecessary.

He tends to book the bigger celebs. I prefer to watch Colbert but if I ever change the channel to Fallon, he’s always got some Marvel superhero or pop star on, while it’s often lesser stars of TV or whatever on the other shows. Colbert sometimes even has journalists or Broadway stars or even like, authors (shock

The baby is off-the-charts cute.

I haven’t started TMMM and stopped watching SMILF two episodes in.

It’s also miles better than SMILF which was nominated this year.

I don’t love Ricky Gervais but I love this - ribbing Depp is always a good move.

Agree. I was a little disappointed after all the hype. It’s a sweet story with some beautiful imagery but all the supporting characters felt like stock “types” (supportive black friend, supportive gay friend, evil government guy) and there are truly no surprises in the plot. It would be a feel-good, uncontroversial,

I had forgotten about The Tourist! Yikes.

Also: where the hell is Sufjan Stevens in the song category? It is impossible to see Call Me By Your Name and not have either of his two (beautiful) songs in your head for days afterwards, easily the most impactful songs in a film this year for me.

UGH I nearly had a ragestroke reading this nominations this morning, but then had to remind myself the Globes routinely make bizarre, left-field decisions that have no bearing on the rest of awards season. Remember when Mozart in the Jungle (which I admit that I have still never seen, but neither have most people) won

Haven’t heard the podcast but have to agree with that assessment. Frances McDormand is such a powerhouse and has so many great lines that for the first half at least the film is super engrossing, but yeah, the politics of police brutality and race are dealt with in a pretty awful way - hamfisted at best, offensive at

I’m keen to see whether Casey Affleck will hand out the Best Actress award.

The bigger budget ones still to come are Spielberg’s The Post, which will probably do well critically and commercially, and del Toro’s The Shape of Water. Gary Oldman will probably win best actor for playing Churchill.

Glad to see this result - as painful as it must be for his family, I hope it provides some vindication and comfort to them, knowing he did not take his own life.

Her dad is unemployed the whole time right? That’s why they’re poor. I could have missed something but I thought the point was the mom was supporting the whole family for the entirety of the time shown in the film. He goes for a job two thirds of the way through and doesn’t get it.

I adored it. Really tender, and funny, and painfully acccurate about teenage girls’ familial and romantic relationships.
