How to watch the Golden Globes

Actors Tina Fey and Amy Poehler will host a bicoastal Golden Globes Sunday that was postponed for nearly two months because of the coronavirus pandemic. Fey will appear from New York City's Rainbow Room, and Poehler will be at The Beverly Hilton in Southern California, a region that was suffering from a post-holiday surge in COVID-19 cases in January, when the awards show is usually held.

Even with the delay, the annual ceremony honoring excellence in film and television will still start off this year's awards season with the Grammys being held in March and the Oscars in April. During Sunday's show, Jane Fonda will receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award and Norman Lear will receive the Carol Burnett Award for their achievements.
