How to watch the Golden Globes 2025 in the US
The 82nd Annual Golden Globes will air live on Sunday, January 5, at 8pm Eastern Time (5pm Pacific Time) on CBS.
To watch on cable, you can tune in using the main CBS channel, which many cable packages will include as it's a major news channel. If you don't have access to it, several live TV streaming services include it in their bundles: DirecTV, Fubo, Hulu with Live TV and YouTube TV all include it on various plans.
Cord-cutters have cheaper options for watching the Golden Globes than signing up for a cable replacement service though. The awards will also be streamed on the streaming service Paramount Plus for all subscribers on the $12.99-per-month Paramount Plus with Showtime tier. You can use this to stream on any smart device like a phone or tablet.
If you don't need to watch the show live, it'll also be available to watch on demand from Monday, January 8 for all Paramount Plus users, even those on the $7.99-per-month Essential plan. This is the cheapest option, although you will have to avoid spoilers online for a few hours.
