Williams was awarded his first accolade from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association during the 36th Golden Globe Awards, which took place on January 27, 1979. Williams beat out fellow comedians John Ritter (Three's Company), Alan Alda (M*A*S*H), and Judd Hirsch (Taxi). "Though that year's ceremony was not broadcast on TV, the Los Angeles Times reported that Robin accepted his trophy 'by turning to the audience and grabbing himself.'" At the time, Mork and Mindy was number one in the Nielsen ratings, reaching almost twenty-six million homes across America.
