"As fun as awards season might seem to us outsiders, the reality is that the whole thing can quickly get a little boring for seasoned stars who are regularly at these kinds of events. As the Critics Choice Awards showed us earlier this month, often, the food isn't great, there's a lot of waiting around, and most of the people in attendance will sit through the whole ceremony without going home with an award of their own."
"Ayo included a photo of some of the cards in her Instagram dump from the night, with the free website that was used to create the game being visible in the photo. Each of the squares on the Bingo sheet was very specific to the Globes, with some fun references to the other celebrities in attendance, as well as the same tired tropes that are often overused at these kinds of events."
"starting with a suggestion that the cast and crew of The Bear are pretty bored of the relentless discourse that surrounds their show each awards season with: "The Bear is not a comedy joke" occupying one of the tiles. "Jacob Elordi is tall," reads another, as well as: "Nice night, lots of fun :)," "We all get the Pluribus disease," "'Thanks Mom,'" and "Nikki Glaser roasts someone.""
Awards-season ceremonies can become tedious for frequent attendees, with subpar food, long waits, and many guests leaving without awards. Ayo Edebiri and colleagues at The Bear's table played Golden Globes Bingo to liven the evening and passed around photos showing the free website used to create the cards. The Bingo squares referenced recurring celebrity tropes and jokes, including AI gags, dating jokes, industry-decline quips, and in-jokes about The Bear. Specific tiles named phrases such as "The Bear is not a comedy joke," "Jacob Elordi is tall," and "Nikki Glaser roasts someone," blending fatigue and humor.
