Ricky Gervais, who has hosted the Golden Globes three times, has ruled out the possibility of returning for a fourth. He took to his blog to make the announcement saying, "I've told my agent to never let me be persuaded to do it again though. It's like a parachute jump. You can only really enjoy it in retrospect when you realise you didn't die and it was quite an amazing thing to do."

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced through Twitter on Wednesday that Gervais will take his third turn as Globes host in January.

What do the critics have to say? For those who think there's nothing left on the carcass of the zombie subgenre to pick over, guess again.
