"I&amp;#39;ll be the first to say it: I love awards shows. Live television events are one of the few times when everyone I know is tuned in to the same thing at the same time. It&amp;#39;s so fun to watch and check social feeds and text messages to see how everyone&amp;#8212;from celebs at the event to my aunt in Michigan&amp;#8212;is reacting. Last night&amp;#39;s Golden Globes had a lot of amazing, inspiring moments for women and a few that bothered me. If you&amp;#39;re a regular Glamour.com reader, you may have seen our roundup of the night&amp;#39;s best and worst moments, plus a look at red carpet fashion and beauty, but here&amp;#39;s what I couldn&amp;#39;t stop talking about to my friends.\nThe Good\nHosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler Totally Killing It\nMy bff&amp;#39;s (oh, they are yours too?) opened the show with a welcome to all the women&amp;#8212;and gay men&amp;#8212;watching at home, and got in a nice dig at ageism in the entertainment business, saying; &amp;quot;Meryl Streep was so great in August Osage County, proving there are still great parts in Hollywood for Meryl Streeps over 60.&amp;quot; They got in another stellar dig at sexism in Hollywood when they pointed out that Matthew McConaughey lost 45 pounds for his role in Dallas Buyers Club, then quipped &amp;quot;or what actresses call being in a movie.&amp;quot;\nEmma Thompson Presenting, Martini in Hand\nThis is why awards shows are fun and live television can be such a thrill. If you&amp;#39;re a grande dame of cinema, you&amp;#39;re allowed to take off your Loubous while presenting an award. I love how much fun Emma Thompson is having here. It&amp;#39;s a good reminder not to take any of this too seriously.\nPinterestFacebookAll the Winning Women__\nCate Blanchett. Jennifer Lawrence. Amy Adams. Robin Wright. Elisabeth Moss. There were some fabulous roles for women in meaty films and television shows this year, and those are just the women who won. I would love to see more women who are writing great roles (and films) for women honored. I was thrilled to see Greta Gerwig and Julie Delpy get acting nods for Francis Ha and Before Midnight, but they also cowrote these films worth seeing. Also, Kelly Marcel wrote the screenplay for Saving Mr. Banks but was not nominated.\nThe Not-So-Good\nThe Cecil B. DeMille Award\nWoody Allen has made many moving, funny, and challenging films that his peers and fans love, myself included. And he&amp;#39;s written some amazing roles for women. But when you start thinking about lifetime achievement awards, do you factor in the man himself as part of the criteria? If you do, to me, this award is problematic. Not only did he have an affair with his girlfriend&amp;#39;s adopted daughter, but his other children have made some very serious allegations, as recently as last night. What did you guys think about this one?\nBut let&amp;#39;s end on a high note. &amp;quot;This was the beautiful mess we hoped it would be,&amp;quot; said Tina. &amp;quot;And I got to make out with Bono,&amp;quot; Amy replied. I&amp;#39;m already excited to watch next year, given that my favorite cohosts are already signed on to do it all again in 2015!\nMore on Golden Globes:\n__Golden Globes Red Carpet: The Night&amp;#39;s Biggest Stars Talk Fashion, Cats, and George Clooney\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
