Hamnet and One Battle After Another were the big movie winners at the 2026 Golden Globes Sunday night in Los Angeles, with The Pitt, The Studio and Adolescence the big television category winners. The biggest moment of the night was when host Nikki Glaser took aim at the recently embattled host network CBS, joking that “the award for most editing goes to CBS News. Yes, CBS News, America’s newest place to see BS news.”
