Netflix Clean Sweeps the Competition at Golden Globes, Wins Seven Awards
In a dominating performance, Netflix took home seven awards at the 2026 Golden Globes, leaving its competitors in the dust. The streaming giant's impressive haul was led by its hit show "Adolescence," which won four awards, including Best Limited or Anthology Series and accolades for standout performances from Stephen Graham, Owen Cooper, and Erin Doherty.
The Netflix original film-turned-TV series received widespread recognition, with fans and critics alike praising its nuanced portrayal of adolescence. The show's success is a testament to the platform's ability to produce high-quality content that resonates with audiences worldwide.
Another Netflix hit, "KPop Demon Hunters," took home two awards, including Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song for EJAE's haunting ballad, "Golden." In her acceptance speech, EJAE urged viewers not to give up on their dreams, saying, "Rejection is redirection. So never give up."
Netflix also won an award for Best Performance in Stand-up Comedy on Television for Ricky Gervais: Mortality. The platform continues to prove its commitment to showcasing a diverse range of programming.
Meanwhile, Apple TV and HBO Max each took home three awards, with Apple's wins coming for The Studio, including Best Television Series Musical or Comedy and Seth Rogen's performance as a male lead actor in a television series. HBO Max won two awards, including Best Television Series Drama for The Pitt, starring Noah Wyle.
The evening also marked the first time the Golden Globes included a Best Podcast category, with Amy Poehler taking home the award for Good Hang with Amy Poehler. This milestone recognizes the growing importance of podcasts in modern entertainment.
With its impressive haul, Netflix solidified its position as a leader in the streaming industry, leaving fans eagerly anticipating what's to come from the platform in the future.

7 awards is crazy! i wonder how much they paid amy poehler for her podcast award lol anyway its cool to see them getting recognition for all their content creators, i mean stephen graham and erin doherty in "adolescence" deserved those best actor/actress awards 
ricky gervais is hilarious btw why did u think they didnt have more tv winners tho
rejection is redirection indeed, thanks amy poehler for keeping it real 
what's next from netflix tho?
i love how they're pushing boundaries with different types of content, from TV series to stand-up comedy 
and now even podcasts! 
amy poehler's win for good hang is so inspiring too 
can't wait to see what they have in store for us next season 
the way they mix genres is like genius also, can't wait for more original content from them 
anyway, i wonder what the competition was thinking, like, how could they even compete with netflix's adolsecence and kpop demon hunters? 
guess we'll just have to keep an eye on them for next year's globes! 
. What's also noteworthy is the platform's ability to adapt and evolve, incorporating new categories like Best Podcast to stay relevant in the ever-changing media landscape 
. Overall, this win only reinforces Netflix's position as a leading force in the streaming industry 
. But hey, if it makes people happy, then I guess that's what matters 
any way congrats to netflix on sweeping those awards, but honestly who needs the golden globes when you've got the prestige of a decent binge-watching experience? 
! It's like they're sucking all the talent and creativity out of everyone else 
, she really inspires people to keep going even when faced with rejection.
. It's getting more and more competitive out there in the streaming world, but I think that's good for us viewers 
The Golden Globes are definitely doing something right with this new podcast category. Can't wait to see what other surprises they have in store for us this year
