2006 (63rd Annual) Golden Globe Winners

Let me just say that I really don't have a particular favorite in the category of Best Actor in a television series (musical or comedy) since they are comedy all-stars.

BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A SUPPORTING ROLE IN A MOTION PICTURE: George Clooney, Syriana "I thought Paul Giamatti would win. It's early, I haven't had a drink yet. I want to thank Jack Abramoff, you know, just because. I’m the first one out, lets get this thing rolling. I don’t know why. Who would name their kid Jack with the last words ‘off’ at the end of your last name? No wonder that guy is screwed up. Alright I just got bleeped."
