The Golden Globes handed out major awards to Bohemian Rhapsody, Bodyguard, Killing Eve and more of the most acclaimed TV shows and films of the year on Sunday (January 6).
This year's co-host Sandra Oh got a big reward for keeping the comedy rolling with Andy Samberg all throughout the show, when she won Best Actress in a Drama for playing the title character in Killing Eve.
Oh broke down in tears as her parents gave her a standing ovation, telling the star-studded crowd: "There are two people here tonight that I’m so grateful that they’re here with me. I’d like to thank my mother and my father."
Another person who got to accept his Golden Globe in front of his parents was Best Actor in a Drama winner Richard Madden of Bodyguard, whose mum and dad came from Scotland for the event.
"Mum and dad, who flew all the way from Scotland, I wouldn't be here without you," he told his parents while accepting his trophy.
Best Drama Series went to The Americans for its final season, while the Best Musical or Comedy this year went to The Kominsky Method. Acting nods in the Comedy category were given to Michael Douglas (The Kominsky Method) and Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel).
