Happy New Year, Fug Nation! I hope it's starting off as well -- or better! -- than you had hoped. As we move into a new year, so too do we move toward a new awards season. Critics Choice Awards has decided to pip the Globes to the post and are now opening the red carpet merry-go-round this upcoming Sunday, January 4\. We will have full red carpet coverage on Monday, obviously, to help you procrastinate at work in fine style. Or...some kind of style. Speaking of, it felt like the right time to take a look back at the highlights and lowlights of 2025's awards season circuit -- call it a mood setter for what we're all about to go through.

As a reminder: We host [live chats during awards show red carpets (and other things, like the Olympics)](https://drinkswithbroads.substack.com/i/181533030/a-spot-of-housekeeping) over at [Drinks With Broads as a perk for paid subscribers](https://drinkswithbroads.substack.com/). It's super fun and we'd love to have you join us this year! The first live chat will be -- with apologies to The Critics and Their Choices -- the Golden Globes, on January 11.
