The Golden Globes has secured a five-year broadcast deal with CBS, marking a significant turnaround for the awards show. The deal will see the gala become a major event for movies on the road to the Oscars, airing on CBS and live-streamed on Paramount starting next year.

The agreement comes after a tumultuous period for the Golden Globes, which was not aired in 2022 amidst rumours of corruption and scandal. This year's broadcast on CBS, reportedly at a discounted rate, saw relatively good viewership despite criticism of the host's performance.

Jay Penske, Chairman and CEO of Penske Media and Dick Clark Productions, expressed pride in continuing the partnership with CBS, highlighting their support during challenging times.

"We're so proud to continue to call CBS our home for the Golden Globes," said Jay Penske. "CBS stepped up for the Globes during a very challenging time, and inherently understood its value while having the foresight, imagination and conviction to bring this iconic show to its many platforms."

CBS CEO George Cheeks also commented on the partnership in an official statement. “CBS’ collaboration with the Globes for this year’s broadcast was a big win for both of us and established strong momentum for awards shows in 2024,” George Cheeks said in a statement.

“The Globes is a one-of-a-kind live event that adds another marquee special and valuable promotional platform to CBS’ annual calendar. I’m excited to expand the partnership withJay [Penske] and the entire team to continue to drive the Globes forward.”

The Golden Globes, which honour achievements in both television and film, have undergone significant changes under new ownership led by Todd Boehly. Efforts to rehabilitate the awards' image included disbanding the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and expanding the pool of overseas critics selecting winners.
