Netflix can now add a Best Drama Series Golden Globe to its awards closet.
The Crownbeat out new darling This Is Usat the Golden Globe Awards, giving Netflix its first major series trophy. As we've said, The Crown is the kind of pretty, prestige period piece made for the Globes, which loves to honor new shows and talent.
The series also beat out HBO juggernaut Game of Thrones(which took home top prize at the Emmys in September, but is still 0-for-4 at the Globes), fellow Netflix hit Stranger Things and dystopian epic Westworld.
