Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are done, who should host the Golden Globes next year?



This year’s Golden Globes marked the expiration date on reigning comedy queens Amy Poehler and Tina Fey’s three-year hosting gig — so naturally a slew of A-list presenters treated the podium like an audition tape.

“Saturday Night Live” alums Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader set social media abuzz with almost 10,000 mentions after riffing on famous lines from iconic movies like “ET” and “Titanic.” Husband-and-wife team Chris Pratt and Anna Faris parodied their professional conflicts, and Kevin Hart jokingly accused animators of “smoking weed” as he presented the award in that category.
The next host may have a big mic to fill, but there’s certainly no shortage of eligible candidates. Here’s how to handicap the race:
 “SNL” alums Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader riffed on iconic movies like “Titanic” and “ET” while presenting the award for Best Screenplay.
Talent: “Skeleton Twins” co-stars Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig
Best line: “Kids, I really — I gotta get back to my planet,” Wiig said, mocking “ET.”
Pro: The “SNL” credential suggests Wiig and Hader will at least be funny. And anyone who saw them dancing in “The Skeleton Twins” knows these two work well together.
Con: Hader and Wiig tend to ramble on to sillier sketches and might not be able to pull of the snarky one liners delivered by Fey and Poehler. They also laugh at their own jokes.
 Hollywood husband-and-wife team  Anna Faris and Chris Pratt joked about professional conflicts while presenting at the Golden Globes.
Grade : A-
Talent: Chris Pratt and Anna Faris
Best line: “People don’t know this, but we have a mixed marriage. I’m CBS, he’s NBC,” Faris joked. “But we plan to raise our children HBO,” Pratt chimed in.
Pros: Faris did well hosting “The People’s Choice Awards,” and Pratt is a lot sexier than Allison Janney.
Con: This Hollywood hunk might be a pricy get. Pratt’s box office hit “Guardians of the Galaxy” grossed over $772 million.

Grade: B-
Talent: Kevin Hart
Best line: “The artists in this next category tell compelling stories through computer clicks, brush strokes and imaginations fueled by weed,” Hart joked
Pro: Hart, the irrepressible “Wedding Ringer” star, left co-presenter Salma Hayek speechless with his fast-paced badanage.
Con: Hart is a shameless self promoter — or, as a Sony exec put it, a “whore.” He couldn’t resist spewing a disingenuous plug for his new movie: “My movie comes out Friday ... [but] that’s not why I’m here here. I’m here for this. It’s not about ‘The Wedding Ringer.’”
 Kevin Hart stole the spotlight from fellow presenter Salma Hayek when he shamelessly promoted his new movie “The Wedding Ringer.”
Grade: B
Talent: Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Best Line: The “Seinfeld” star nonchalantly played along when Fey roped her into the opening monologue: “Julia Louise-Dreyfus is here ‘cause she’s obsessed with me...
Pro: She’s not afraid to go with the flow. At last year’s Emmy’s, the “Veep” star shared a passionate smooch on live television with “Breaking Bad” alum Bryan Cranston after winning for best comic actress.
Con: She might need someone like Cranston to be her wingman on stage.

Grade: B+
Talent : Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda
Best line : "Don't you remember that day on the set I picked up that old rotary phone and said, 'One day people will be able to watch things on this?'" Tomlin said.
"I thought you were just high that day," Fonda, 77, responded.
"Two things can be true," Tomlin answered.
Pro : There is no moral transgression to which Tomlin won’t admit — and which Fonda hasn’t attempted.
Con : This is the Golden Globes, not the Kennedy Center Honors — and glamor is a young person’s game.

Grade: B
