Last night's Golden Globes took an unexpected turn when stand-up comedian Jo Koy delivered a monologue that didn't quite hit the mark. However, despite the less-than-stellar performance, Koy remains a popular talent with a massive following. In fact, he has not one, but two upcoming specials on Netflix, including one that was filmed just last November in Brooklyn. With millions of dedicated fans and a busy touring schedule, Koy's career is far from being derailed by one misstep.
The Golden Globes themselves saw a significant increase in viewership, growing by a staggering 50% and averaging 9.4 million viewers. This growth is particularly noteworthy considering the show's decline in popularity in 2023. While Koy's mishap may have stung a bit, it is important to remember that he was performing on a global platform, and hosting an awards show is a much different challenge than crafting a stand-up routine.
