rhhardin বলেছেন...: Tedious, from the first few minutes anyway. No big picture insults of the whole arrangement.; ৬/১/২৫, ৮:৩৯ AM
Dave Begley বলেছেন...: Very good.; ৬/১/২৫, ৮:৪৪ AM
Kate বলেছেন...: I literally lol'ed at a few jokes, especially the RFK bit.; ৬/১/২৫, ৮:৫২ AM
Howard বলেছেন...: Safe corporate phony edgy.; ৬/১/২৫, ৮:৫২ AM
Aggie বলেছেন...: Kate Winslet looked absolutely terrified at 2:16, then she got mad when mentioned twice, but the most of the other actors put their best acting face on. The monolog didn't do anything for me, but she's not really my cuppa anyway.; ৬/১/২৫, ৮:৫৫ AM
Iman বলেছেন...: meh.; ৬/১/২৫, ৮:৫৫ AM
Ice Nine বলেছেন...: এই মন্তব্যটি লেখক দ্বারা সরানো হয়েছে।; ৬/১/২৫, ৮:৫৬ AM
Ice Nine বলেছেন...: Do we know this person??; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:০৬ AM
Peachy বলেছেন...: Barf.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:১০ AM
William বলেছেন...: It was pointed but not sharp enough to draw blood or inflict pain. She didn't do herself or any of the guests any harm. Everybody hopes for the second coming of Ricky Gervais but that's not going to happen.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:১০ AM
Narr বলেছেন...: I don't have any idea who she is, and could only take a few seconds of that voice. I hope the jokes were good.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:১০ AM
Tom T. বলেছেন...: Very funny!; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:১১ AM
gilbar বলেছেন...: i made it as far as: "if there IS a next time"
i'm not a fan of fantasy standup comedy; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:১২ AM
Peachy বলেছেন...: Hey everyone - a room filled with very wealthy rich Democrats who vote Democratix and laugh & mock from behind their walled mansions - all while our nation crumbles under the weight of MSNBC, massive crime, criminal government waste, government spending caused inflation, illegal entrants, drugs, child sex abuse and on and on. So much fentanyl - the dolphins are being poisoned in the oceans.
Everyone oooooogle the fabulous wealth, shiny jewelry and designer outfits.
pfffft.

Again - barf.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:১৫ AM
Tarrou বলেছেন...: Well written, mostly well delivered. Humorous, witty, even clever in places. Nothing funny or insightful, except perhaps the last joke, which was subtle enough I'm not sure it was intended.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:২০ AM
Lazarus বলেছেন...: Thanks for that. I laughed harder than I have all year. She hit the sweet spot: insulting enough to the celebrities to please the audience but not insulting enough to really anger the celebrities. Obviously, she's not going to go further than that and do real damage to the people who invited her. One tip for Nikki and her make-up person, though: with all that glitzy shine on the set and on her dress, she could use a little less on her face.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:২০ AM
Deep State Reformer বলেছেন...: This is People Magazine tier stuff. Few people but Hollywood groupies watch that stuff anyway to be truthful. Parsing the monologue at the Flat Earth Society's annual meeting would have about the same relevance.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:২২ AM
Lilly, a dog বলেছেন...: The Chalamet bits were good, with a great assist from Sandler.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:২৫ AM
Ice Nine বলেছেন...: Oh, they were...good 'n vapid.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:২৬ AM
Magilla Gorilla বলেছেন...: Surprised myself by watching the whole thing. Some good yuks, and nice to see some of the actors whose work I know and like (mostly the older ones). Of course, I have not seen any of the current crop of movies or shows, though I will at some point check out the DVD of the Dylan movie from the public library.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:২৬ AM
Peachy বলেছেন...: Considering most hiveminders/ MSNBC koolaid drinkers actually believe Trump will never leave office - yeah - it's just so ho ho ho funny.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:২৬ AM
Eva Marie বলেছেন...: I’m not a fan of roasts, people smiling uncomfortably at insults. So this monologue was fine. My favorite joke - best actors in the business are here - your waiters. 2nd favorite: you’re all so powerful you can do anything - except elect the President. Best fashion - Zendaya. Lots of lovely gowns - although lovely gowns are so commonplace now. Pamala Anderson really looked good. A simple black gown like a simple black suit is always classy. I liked Chalamet’s suit even though Brody won the award with that snake broach.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:২৮ AM
Joe Bar বলেছেন...: I found that before you posted it. That was a really good performance. That's a difficult audience and few can do it well. She did it. The Adam Sandler joke was great!; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:২৮ AM
Eva Marie বলেছেন...: এই মন্তব্যটি লেখক দ্বারা সরানো হয়েছে।; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:৩০ AM
JAORE বলেছেন...: It met my "pretty good" standard in that I watched until the end and chuckled a few times.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:৩৫ AM
The Vault Dweller বলেছেন...: It was kind of tame. I chuckled at a few, like the RFK Jr. one and the Ben Afleck sex exclamations one. Notably, I will say I did not groan or roll my eyes at anything.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:৩৭ AM
The Vault Dweller বলেছেন...: If I had to give it a rating I would say in between good and okay. Calling it "Really Good" feels incorrect, but then also so does calling it "Meh."; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:৪২ AM
Yeah Right Sure বলেছেন...: Makes me wish that the GG's was so desperate for ratings that they would give Ricky Gervais the podium.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:৪৬ AM
RCOCEAN II বলেছেন...: Mildly vulgar. Mildly funny. A few mild shots at the celebrities. Not being a fan of the actors and producers, I experienced a mild reaction. Mass entertainment industrial comedy.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:৪৯ AM
RCOCEAN II বলেছেন...: One tiresome thing about female comediens, at least in the 21st century, is the non-stop sex jokes. yeah, I know you have a vagina and you have sex. Can you joke about something else?; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:৫১ AM
john বলেছেন...: Loved the pace, the setups the punch lines. Her whole routine was just great. (First time I've seen Timothy Chalamet outside of A Complete Unknown. He actually looks uglier than Dylan.); ৬/১/২৫, ৯:৫৬ AM
Eric the Fruit Bat বলেছেন...: I thought it was great. But I guess I have to say something negative so I don't like it when the target of a joke makes a big show of his or her reaction. Comes off as needy.; ৬/১/২৫, ১০:০৩ AM
Leland বলেছেন...: I was impressed that she wasn’t afraid “to go there” with various jokes. I made it further than I thought, but still found it interesting at the top that producers getting sex from starlets is still a joke for Hollywood, and the notion that “you can do whatever in Hollywood and they let you do it” got hidden by the joke that they couldn’t influence voters.
Anyone know why Kate Winslet seemed to be pissed? I didn’t even know she was still acting.; ৬/১/২৫, ১০:১২ AM
Eva Marie বলেছেন...: In my above comment broach should be brooch.; ৬/১/২৫, ১০:১৮ AM
Michael বলেছেন...: What are the Golden Globes again?; ৬/১/২৫, ১০:৪৬ AM
Milo Minderbinder বলেছেন...: As a graduate of the U. of Kansas, thanks to Glaser for giving ranking agencies a reason to knock KU down a few more notches....; ৬/১/২৫, ১১:০০ AM
Iman বলেছেন...: 👍; ৬/১/২৫, ১১:০৬ AM
Iman বলেছেন...: The Real Deal sitting out there in the audience looked like a woman transitioning to a “man”… I wonder if that’s for an acting role or his new look.; ৬/১/২৫, ১১:০৯ AM
JIM বলেছেন...: I almost made it to the 8 minute mark.; ৬/১/২৫, ১১:২৬ AM
PM বলেছেন...: Muy fonny. Esp the knock on Clooney at the end.; ৬/১/২৫, ১১:৩২ AM
tommyesq বলেছেন...: Haven't watched yet - how many pedophile jokes did she determine was enough?; ৬/১/২৫, ১১:৩৮ AM
Wince বলেছেন...: Very good timing and delivery. Played it right down the middle. Which means she's got any awards gig now, if she wants it. Smart first foray. It'll be more difficult for them to get rid of her in the future given her increased notoriety, even if she moves more edgy.; ৬/১/২৫, ১১:৪২ AM
oldirishpig বলেছেন...: Wandered away, mid-monologue.; ৬/১/২৫, ১১:৪৫ AM
DINKY DAU 45 বলেছেন...: People watched this show instead of LIONS and Vikings! What a sad life :); ৬/১/২৫, ১১:৫৫ AM
PM বলেছেন...: Think Darnold would've preferred to be watching Glaser.; ৬/১/২৫, ১২:০৮ PM
tcrosse বলেছেন...: Not bad, and in a target-rich environment.; ৬/১/২৫, ১২:২৭ PM
MadisonMan বলেছেন...: Seemed predictable. For a comic, that's not a great comment.; ৬/১/২৫, ১২:৩৭ PM
Michael R. Arndorfer বলেছেন...: I'm never impressed with the hardworking actors/servers joke. Perhaps it's part of the contract to host the show, but it just falls flat on me every time.; ৬/১/২৫, ১:৩৭ PM
FullMoon বলেছেন...: Lacked bosom.; ৬/১/২৫, ১:৫৪ PM
RCOCEAN II বলেছেন...: Looking at the comments. Well, there 's a reason why Joey Bishop used to be popular. And Adam Sandler is a worth a zillion dollars. My wife says I'm a tough crowd, but I do like good comedy. But I just saw a cartoon that I thought funnier than anything Glazer did. " If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you."; ৬/১/২৫, ১:৫৮ PM
Craig Mc বলেছেন...: She did fine. You can't expect a Ricky Gervais suicide bombing every time.; ৬/১/২৫, ৩:০০ PM
Rosalyn C. বলেছেন...: I laughed a lot spontaneously. That's the best kind of humor when you can't help but laugh. I didn't know Nikki Glazer at all before the other day and looked up some YouTube videos of her performances. This was much better. And she is refreshingly much funnier and smarter than most of the comedians on TV -- the late night crowd. A lot of the jokes were kind of insider jokes so you have to have some sympathy for the artists there. The usual pompous suspects here found no humor at all.; ৬/১/২৫, ৫:৩৫ PM
Biff বলেছেন...: Normally, I find Glaser to be unwatchable. Her "humor" tends to be crude, crass, and grotesque, and I'm no prude when it comes to stand up comedy. She drastically toned down her approach for the Golden Globes. I have to say, it was actually pretty well done by today's standards.; ৬/১/২৫, ৬:০৫ PM
TWWren বলেছেন...: Predictable.; ৬/১/২৫, ৬:৩৫ PM
Jim Gust বলেছেন...: Dull and disappointing. Nowhere near the bar set by Ricky Gervais. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler were also quite good. This one was a waste of time.; ৬/১/২৫, ৯:৫২ PM
