Recently real life is becoming filled with doom and gloom, violence and racism, crime and hoodwinking and lies so it was wonderful to find an escape in the form of television entertainment.

I was advised to seek out “The last man on earth” so  did just that. Boy was I not disappointed. Laugh out loud funny. Crazy and mindless but thoroughly unmissable viewing.

What would you do if you thought you were the last person on earth? Freak out? Probably to start with but once reality set in the world is yours.

This tongue in cheek series is so well written and the lead role “Phil-Tandy” is brilliant. What a dick he is but one can’t help enjoy his approach to every twist and turn that is thrown his way.

That is not to say that the other characters are left in his shadow. Far from it. Each and every new face brings more humour and drama to what should be a very sad and lonely experience.

It does make one think and play out fantasies if put in the same predicament.

I love the artistic licence of the show and one can ignore what certain situations would actually be the true result.

Granted not all will see the appeal and some may find it totally stupid but that is the point. Its meant to be.

If you haven’t heard of this series of shows then search it out on Amazon Prime and such places and start watching. Give it a chance as it takes a while to settle into the world of being alone and bored.

Fantastic is my last word.
