The new Doctor Who? The Beeb have managed to save some face after multiple Strictly Come Dancing voting disasters by electing promising new talent Matt Smith to grab the sonic screwdriver as the eleventh Doctor Who. HIT.
Energy efficient lightbulbs? Yet another one of those fantastic ecological ideas that only work in theory. Sorry polar bears, it'll have to wait. DISS.
Atheism? Amid the credit crunch, a rise in crime and international warfare, it wouldn't hurt to have a little faith right now. DISS.
www.schooltogethernow.com? If parents can't entertain their seven-year-old children and have to resort to creating a social networking site just to keep them busy, then we have a serious issue on our hands. The world didn't start with the creation of Facebook, you know. DISS.
The Oscars? No other event brings nearly as much glitz, glamour and grandeur to the red carpet as the annual Academy Awards. Approaching its 81st glorious year, and with Will Smith, Meryl Streep and Angelina Jolie among those tipped for a statuette, this ceremony is definitely going to be one to remember. HIT.
Prince William to wed? After years of speculation, it seems 2009 could be the year Kate Middleton is welcomed into the monarchy. But is it wrong of me to be more excited about what Prince Harry might say? Or wear? HIT.
Celebrity Big Brother? Okay, so it's trashy and desperate. But when else can you flick channels and find a fake cult dedicated to the one and only Chesney Hawkes, or watch US rapper Coolio scrubbing TV presenter Terry Christian with a loofah? Only during Celebrity Big Brother. And that's why we love it. HIT!
