Tiny Fey and Amy Poehler to Return as Hosts of Golden Globes in 2014 and 2015

 

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler will return to host the Golden Globes in 2014 and 2015!

 

Paul Telegdy, NBC's alternative programming president, released a statement saying that "Tina and Amy are two of the most talented comedic writer/performers in our business and they were a major reason the Golden Globes was the most entertaining awards show of last season. We’re elated they wanted to host together again and that they committed for the next two years."

 

Bringing these two back to host the awards for the next two years is no surprise seeing as when they hosted in 2013, close to 20 million people watched which was a 17% increase from the 2012 Golden Globes.

 

The 2014 Golden Globes will air on NBC on January 12th.

NBC Announces the Hosts for the 2013 Golden Globes

Late today, NBC announced that Tiny Fey and Amy Poehler will host the 2013 Golden Globes on January 13th.

The network's president of alternative programming Paul Telegdy said that "Tina and Amy have a proven chemistry and comedic timing from their many years together on SNL to their successful co-starring roles in Baby Mama."

I, for one, approve of NBC's decision.
