Walking Dead, Netflix
After binge watching six full series of the Walking Dead in record time I now feel fully prepared for the zombie apocalypse, which lets face it will come eventually.
We're already halfway there, I witnessed not one but two people walking into stationary objects last week because they were staring zombie like at their phones.
Anyway here's what I've learned so far, in the last days of the earth when we finally consume all the resources and bomb anything we don't want into oblivion, money, power and wealth will mean nothing.
In fact the rich, pampered and power hungry - they'll all die first because they've no survival skills. Paris Hilton won't last an hour.
In the Walking Dead, the high cost Fox TV apocalypse drama that has spawned super fans and obsessives, myself included, it's the rednecks, the weirdos and those who have no issue severing a zombie's head that survive.
The last will come first and the first will come last. And it's crossbow carrying Daryl Dixon who looks set to be the last man alive. He has managed to survive and in turn save the little group of survivors led by hero of the show Rick Grimes, who lost his wife but gained a baby in a gruesome section delivery - not to be watched if you're due to give birth anytime soon.
After series one you realise the Walking Dead's popularity has nothing to do with zombies, they're just extras in an extraordinary story of human survival and resilience.
The characters are so compelling I'm sorry I came to it so late. The sword wielding Michonne is the kind of kick ass female character we need more of.
Having now found a safe place to live in Alexandria we know it's not going to last. Series seven promises more drama and edge of the seat action.
The blood/ horror count is higher than anything I've ever watched, and therefore not for the faint hearted but a cracking series none the less.
I've watched so many I'm literally all out until the much anticipated series seven already being shown in the US. Take my word if you don't mind zombie intestines it's a much watch, just be warned once you've watched one you have to watch them all.

The Oscars, 10pm, Sky Living, Monday
Speaking of the end of the earth, Leonardo DiCaprio finally received an Oscar and used his two and a half minutes to tell us all we were all going to die if we didn't protect the planet. Ah well, a change from thanking your manager.
The Oscars live show was just too late for me so I caught the highlights and I gave Chris Rock a standing ovation in my living room.
His harsh and at times cutting comedy regarding the race scandal that preceded the 88th annual awards that had no black actors nominated in any category, was brilliant, shocking and totally stole the show.
It had the rich and powerful of Hollywood squirming in their chairs and rightly so, I bet they don't repeat the 'white people's choice' awards line up, as Rock called it next year.
He laid down a gauntlet and he did it with style wearing a white dinner jacket.
