It was a big night for Glee as members of the foreign press kicked off awards season with the Golden Globe Awards in Los Angeles.

The Fox musical series was named Best TV Series – Comedy or Musical for a second year in a row, with Chris Colfer and Jane Lynch taking home Best Supporting Actor and Actress, respectively. HBO’s Prohibition-era drama Boardwalk Empire was named Best TV Series – Drama, with Steve Buscemi named Best Actor – Drama. Katey Sagal was finally recognized as Best Actress – Drama for her work in FX’s Sons of Anarchy, while Jim Parsons and Laura Linney were similarly feted.

The Facebook drama The Social Network emerged as the big winner on the film front, winning four awards, including Best Motion Picture – Drama and honors for director David Fincher and writer Aaron Sorkin. The quirky comedy The Kids Are All Right went home with two awards, including Best Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical. Natalie Portman was named Best Actress – Drama for Black Swan, while The Fighter‘s Christian Bale and Melissa Leo took nods for Best Supporting Actor and Actress.
