The TV Cave Take: What the 2026 Golden Globes Were Really Saying

The Globes leaned hard into international cinema this year, with The Secret Agent making serious waves. Neon’s distribution strategy is clearly paying off, even if their films didn’t always walk away with the biggest prizes.

Paul Thomas Anderson quietly dominated the night with One Battle After Another, scooping up Best Director, Screenplay, and multiple acting wins. Subtle? No. Effective? Absolutely. Be prepared to see more of him come Oscar night.

On the TV side, HBO Max and Netflix were in a cold war, with The Pitt and Adolescence emerging as the evening’s heavy hitters. Meanwhile, Jean Smart continuing her awards reign for Hacks feels less like a surprise and more like a law of nature.

And yes, KPop Demon Hunters winning both Animated Feature and Original Song is exactly the kind of Globes chaos we’ve come to expect but Sinners not winning still stings.

Final Thoughts

The Golden Globes 2026 full list of winners paints a clear picture of where the industry is headed: globally focused, genre-flexible and increasingly unbothered by traditional prestige hierarchies. Whether you loved the results, rage-texted through them or are already predicting Oscar snubs, one thing’s certain: this year’s Globes gave us plenty to talk about.
