Happy New Year! Would you like to go back in time to an *old* year? I mean, I think... many of us would. [Thirty years ago, at the Golden Globes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/53rd%5FGolden%5FGlobe%5FAwards?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), Sharon Stone (*Casino*) defeated Emma Thompson, Susan Sarandon, Elisabeth Shue, and Meryl Streep. John Travolta (*Get Shorty*) and Nicole Kidman (*To Die For*) won for comedy acting. *Party of Five* and *Cybill* were your best TV series, knocking down shows like *ER* and *NYPD Blue* and *Friends*, *Frasier*, and *Seinfeld*. Way to go, Salingers, I sincerely didn't remember that you ever had that in you -- although the Globes, of all awards shows, have always been open to teen-esque dramas. It's the ONE way in which they have been smart: They were more open to the work being done on *Gilmore Girls* and *Felicity* than the other shows.

Also, spoiler, there is one couple in here I had NO idea was ever a thing.
