Staying In
TV picks: If, unlike the rest of the world, you watch the Golden Globe Awards to see who wins instead of what the stars are wearing, the category to watch is best movie. Several nominees Gladiator, Erin Brockovich, Billy Elliott, Traffic, Sunshine, Wonder Boys make the competition hot. TV comedy nominees should be a hot and heavy category too: Frasier, Malcolm in the Middle, Will & Grace, Ally McBeal and Sex and the City. (8-11 p.m., Channels 5, 22).
The Wonderful World of Disney people made a smart move by bringing back a true classic Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Gene Wilder stars as the candy maker in a musical that has lots of clever touches. (7 p.m., Channels 9, 2).
