The Golden Globes nominations for 2023 were released on Monday, and as usual, there were some snubs and surprises. Winners of the awards will be disclosed on January 10 from the Beverly Hilton on NBC and Peacock.

The HFPA-backed Globes return to the air after NBC declared that it would not air the telecast in 2022 following a scandal.
