Teen Drama Links for January 10, 2023

Tonight will be a night of firsts.

It is the first time I’ll be missing the Golden Globes in as far back as I can remember and the first time I see the “Dancing with the Stars” tour.

I’m extremely excited for the “DWTS” live show. However, I’m pretty bummed that I won’t be able to watch the Globes.

Even though there are plenty of ways for fellow TeenDramaWhores to immediately find out which of our teen drama stars won and lost at the awards show, it almost feels like a dereliction of duty that I won’t be live-tweeting the results like I normally do.

I’m also frustrated that I won’t have time today to listen to / watch the special “Welcome to the OC, Bitches” with Mischa Barton (which, spoiler alert, I have a cameo in!). I typically carve out time on Tuesdays for the weekly “OC, Bitches” installment, but today is busier than usual, in part because of my plans tonight. So I just can’t make it work.

Obviously, these are #firstworldproblems, but they’ve had me stressed. When it comes to anything related to the teen dramas, I have perpetual #FOMO. So, as strange as it may sound, I’ve had anxiety over the last week just because I won’t immediately know the relevant Golden Globes winners (refresh yourself on the TD-related nods here) and because I won’t know before all the inevitable media coverage how the podcast discussion went (speaking of, here’s a preview clip via People). Simply put, as a pop culture enthusiast in general, I don’t like being out of the entertainment loop.

On the (very) bright side, I’m expecting the “DWTS” show tonight to be incredible, and I know I’ll be making an extra-special memory with my mom. Ultimately, the time with my mom, whom I don’t see nearly enough, is most important. In that sense, no matter what happens at the Globes or on the podcast, the real winner today is… me.

FYI: Like I did during my trip to Punta Cana and whenever I go out, I'll be masked up during the “DWTS” show, and I hope you all are masking, too. Be careful out there, folks.
