The Golden Globes awards ceremony held in Los Angeles, the United States, hit a 10-year high in viewership.
According to national figures released by the Nielsen ratings company, the NBC telecast was seen last Sunday by almost 21 million viewers. That's an audience growth 6 percent over last year's show.
NBC, the US national broadcasting company, says the telecast is currently the season's most-watched awards program, topping the CMA Awards, or the Country Music Association Awards, Emmy Awards, American Music Awards and People's Choice Awards.
For the fifth year, the Globes were televised live to all time zones in the US. Some Western markets also carried an encore telecast following the live coverage.

The Mexican government says fishermen found two rare conjoined gray whale calves that died shortly after being born.
Biologist Benito Bermudez says the whales were found alive in a lagoon in the Baja California Peninsula but lived only a few hours.
The whales were linked at the waist, with two full heads and tail fins.
Bermudez is a marine biologist with the National Natural Protected Areas Commission in the U.S.
Scientists are collecting skin, muscle and baleen samples to study the creatures.
Every year more than 20,000 gray whales swim to Mexico from Alaska to mate and give birth.
