Most award shows take it year-to-year when choosing hosts, but after Tina Fey and Amy Poehler received raves for their Golden Globes hosting duties earlier this year, the comic duo will be coming back to host for the next two years.  I didn't watch this past year's ceremony (I don't remember why; I usually tune in), but I remember all the positive comments on Twitter.  I'm glad I'll get a chance to see them work their magic next year.  It's always great to have talented comedians on stage at the Globes, especially since the awards themselves are a complete and utter farce.

Hit the jump to read the press release.  The 2014 Golden Globes will air live on Sunday, January 12th at 8pm EST.

Here's the press release:

Following 2013’s Critically Applauded Performance, Beloved Comedic Duo to Serve as Co-Emcees for Next Two Telecasts

UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. — Oct. 14, 2013 — Golden Globe winner Tina Fey and Golden Globe nominee Amy Poehler (“Parks and Recreation”) have signed on to host NBC’s exclusive coverage of “The 71st Annual Golden Globe Awards,” which will be broadcast live on Sunday, Jan. 12, 2014 from 5-8 p.m. (PT) and 8-11 p.m. (ET) from the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills.

As part of their deal, Fey and Poehler will also host “The 72nd Annual Golden Globe Awards” in 2015.

The announcement was made today by Hollywood Foreign Press Association president Theo Kingma, dick clark productions and NBC.

“Tina and Amy are two of the most talented comedic writer/performers in our business and they were a major reason the Golden Globes was the most entertaining awards show of last season,” said Paul Telegdy, President, Alternative and Late Night Programming, NBC Entertainment.  “We’re elated they wanted to host together again and that they committed for the next two years.”

“We are thrilled Amy and Tina have decided to return as hosts of the Golden Globe Awards for the next two years,” said Kingma. “Their return ensures that the Golden Globes will once again be the biggest, best and most entertaining awards celebration of the year.”

“Tina and Amy have a truly unique chemistry making them one of the most talented and captivating pairings of all-time,” said Allen Shapiro, CEO of dick clark productions. “We are thrilled to have them back in 2014 and 2015.”

The 2013 Golden Globes averaged a 6.4 rating, 15 share in adults 18-49 and 19.7 million viewers overall, for a year-to-year jump of 28% in 18-49 rating (to a 6.4 from a 5.0) and 17% or 2.8 million persons in total viewers (19.7 million vs. 16.9 million). The 2013 telecast claimed the biggest Golden Globes results in six years in both 18-49 rating and total viewers (since Monday, Jan. 15, 2007, 6.5/15 in 18-49, 20.0 million viewers overall).
