NBC has come up with an alternative to the traditional Golden Globes ceremony, according to several sources including our very own Marc Malkin and the Los Angeles Times.

In the words of NBC:

  • At 9 p.m. EST, there will be a press conference covered by NBC News announcing the Golden Globe winners. (9pm-10pm)
  • At 8 p.m., we are negotiating with Dick Clark Enterprises for a one-hour retrospective/clip show.
  • At 7 p.m., we will air a Dateline with clips and interviews with nominees. (Currently scheduled to air for two hours on Saturday night.)
  • At 10 p.m., we will broadcast an Access Hollywood-style Golden Globes party show...visiting the various parties in Hollywood.

But without the red carpet drama, musical numbers and teary acceptance speeches, will you still watch? Vote below...
