This year's Golden Globes Awards ceremony was actually remarkably similar to last year's show, but which one was better? We're breaking down how Tina Fey and Amy Poehler fared as hosts compared to their gig last year. The jokes, the drag, the dates — everything's fair game. Which show reigned supreme? Here's our take.
Their Red Carpet Style
Last year: Tina wore a black-and-white floral dress by L'Wren Scott and pumps by Salvatore Ferragamo. Amy went with a tux by Stella McCartney and shoes by Charlotte Olympia.
This year: Tina wore a floor-length, patterned Carolina Herrera gown, and Amy sported a ladylike Stella McCartney evening dress.
Winner: 2014. Amy's tux was bold, but Tina's gown makes this year the clear winner.
Their Opening Monologues
Last year: Amy and Tina made fun of the previous year's host, Ricky Gervais, and complimented Zero Dark Thirty director Kathryn Bigelow: "When it comes to torture, I trust the woman who spent three years married to James Cameron."
This year: The duo poked fun at Meryl Streep, Martin Scorsese, the stars of American Hustle, and TV-turned-film star Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
Winner: 2013. That James Cameron joke really made it all worth it.
Tina's Most Scandalous Zingers
Last year: "Quentin Tarantino is here, star of all my sexual nightmares."
This year: "Like a supermodel's vagina, let's all give a warm welcome to Leonardo DiCaprio."
Winner: 2014. A resounding "OMG" followed that DiCaprio dig.
Their Use of Garbage-Related Jokes
Last year: "This next actor is so good-looking, he makes young George Clooney look like garbage." — Tina, when announcing Clooney as presenter.
This year: "Matt, don't take this the wrong way, but tonight you're basically a garbage person." — Amy on how Damon wasn't the most famous person in the room.
Winner: 2014. Later, Matt Damon called himself a garbage man, and it was just the best.
Who Won What?
Last year: Both ladies were nominated for best actress in a comedy series, but both went home empty-handed.
This year: Amy took home the award for her role on Parks and Recreation.
Winner: 2014, obviously.
Taylor Swift Tie-In
Last year: "You know what, Taylor Swift? You stay away from Michael J. Fox's son." — Tina, taking a jab at Swift's ever-changing relationship status.
This year: "I love you. There's a special place in hell for you." — Tina congratulating Amy on her win while poking fun at Taylor Swift's infamous Vanity Fair quote.
Winner: 2013. This first year it was lighthearted, but now it's getting awkwardly close to a legit feud.
Amy's Lucky Date
Last year: Amy spent a portion of her evening canoodling with George Clooney.
This year: Bono did the honors of rubbing her shoulders to relax her before she won.
Winner: 2013. You can't top Clooney. You just can't.
Their Clever Drag Bits
Last year: Tina popped up as fake nominee Damian Francisco, "a professional volleyball player battling restless legs syndrome."
This year: Amy dressed as Randy, Tina's cranky adult son who she forced to be Mr. Golden Globe.
Winner: 2014. Randy may have been the funniest part of the whole evening.
Winner: 2014!
The ladies were poised, practiced, and overall the perfect hosts. Let's keep our fingers crossed that they'll be even better next year!
