Hugh Laurie made a doomsday prediction in his speech when he won for Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series at the Golden Globe Awards Sunday, joking that this was the last-ever ceremony. "It has the words Hollywood, foreign and press in the title," he said, intimating that they're all buzzwords that are anathema to the incoming administration.

His win, for his work on The Night Manager, was a bit of an upset, as John Lithgow was a favorite to win for the The Crown. "I accept on behalf of psychopathic billionaires everywhere," he said.
