The 2017 Golden Globes are the new year's first award show and, with that, comes great responsibility. The trophies have historically kicked the Oscar race into overdrive — and produce the first big memes of the year. So you'll want to be caught up on all the memes and jokes from the 2017 Golden Globes, so you can laugh along with the fun. With The Tonight Show's Jimmy Fallon as host, the ceremony is sure to be tons of fun on-screen and on Twitter.

Fallon is known for his often-viral and super funny segments from his NBC late night show, so it's likely that the host will bring some of his lovable humor to the awards show this year. The Golden Globe Awards brings together both TV and film to bestow awards to establish some Academy Award front-runners (La La Land, Moonlight, Nocturnal Animals, Lion) and highlight shows that audiences love (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, This Is Us). With so many different stars in attendance, the potential for awesomeness is unparalleled — and you know Twitter will be there to react to all of it in real time.
