New York  — The Nielsen ratings company says Golden Globes awards ceremony hit a 10-year high in viewership.

According to national figures released Monday, the NBC telecast, with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler co-hosting for a second year, was seen Sunday by 20.9 million viewers. That's an audience growth of 1.2m viewers (or 6%) over last year's show.

Fey and Poehler are set to return to the Globes in 2015.

For the fifth year, the Globes were televised live to all time zones, and some western markets also carried an encore telecast following the live coverage.
