Leonardo gets two in the same category, as does Clint Eastwood, in the list of nominations for the 64th annual Golden Globe Awards.
But Borat doesn't deserve a Best Comedy nod.
As for TV: HBO's Big Love gets a chance at best drama, along with Grey's, 24, Lost, and the only worthy contender, Heroes. While Love is conceptually edgy, it never really gets anywhere - and its mixed messaging isn't a mark of contentious drama, it's a mark of immobilized writers.

I am surprised that you like Heroes over 24, though both are good in quite different ways.
I don't dislike 24, I've just never gotten into it. My previous roomie was nuts over it. I watched a few episodes and they were good. But you have to commit to it. I suppose Heroes is a bit of the same. Perhaps I just like the fantasy element of the show. Supposed real life dramas can get me down at times.
Plus Heroes has more of a sense of humor about it. I suppose I shouldn't judge 24 on a limited data sample - but it seems to take itself WAY seriously.
