Rising Star Comedian Shane Gillis Misses Golden Globes Due to Runtime Limitations of His TV Series 'Tires'

The Globes’ accounting firm shut down Tires’ chances for awards, citing its 132-minute runtime—just shy of the 150-minute requirement.

Normally, this might go unnoticed, but when Shane Gillis is involved, it’s a different story. Gillis, a comedic powerhouse with universal appeal, has become a global sensation, breaking barriers of identity and culture.

After the show’s smashing debut, Tires Season 2 was greenlit almost immediately. Thus, proving show’s quality wasn’t the issue behind the Globes’ decision.

In Tires, Gillis shines as its star, writer, co-creator, and executive producer. The first season centers on Will (Steve Gerben), a hapless heir to an auto repair empire, trying to revive the family business while dealing with relentless pranks and chaos from his cousin-turned-employee.
