It's shit.

It's fake.

The "experts" are told the answers beforehand.

Were given two sides on who to support each show. Sometimes the contestants can absolute twats and you want them to lose so you can route for the Chaser.

Also Bradley gives off some great faces.

>>81293828
t. Chased

The banter, the Chasers have just enough to be amusing without being cunty. Always good when Bradley makes them lose their composure and they start giggling

Fast pace, head to head quizzing with a variable handicap for the contestants, fun banter, likable cast and opportunities for contestants to be complete pricks and turn you against them.

>>81293753
the questions aren't piss easy but they're not bullshit obscure like Mastermind so everyone feels a little smarter when they watch it

>>81293753
It's a bit annoying how they pretend that fat redhead is attractive

>>81294134

It is kind of weird because Brad basically shits on everyone else in their intro then praises Jenny.

>>81293753
How do you know the quiz masters dont already know what the answers are?

Why does the fat white guy say "Aks", instead of "Ask"? He can't even pronounce a 3-letter word ffs.

>"..are you aksing me a question?.."

>>81294260
they get a few wrong and sometimes have a nightmare with questions. Doesn't matter anyway, contestant gets same answer and as long as theyre right they go through

>>81294305
he can't pronounce the 'th' sound either

Who is the shittest chaser?

And, who is the best chaser?

>>81294336
the black one and the paki one, respectively.

Mark>Jenny>Anne>Shaun>Paul

They're all pretty great, so I'm basing this on how badly they get rattled and completely shit the bed. Paul and Shaun can have complete meltdowns in the final chase.

>>81294305
>>81294331
some accents/dialects do that

in NZ the scummier people say 'yous' instead of 'you'

>>81294331
Kek, i forgot about that.

Dude's literally a retard, yet he can recall the capital of Zwambistan in fucking milliseconds.

Fuck offf it's fake as shit.

>>81294380
No, he has a south london accent. I'm from south london. I don't say aks. He talks like an idiot senpai.

>>81294388
general knowledge isn't intelligence

he's basically one those guys that wrecks everyones shit at the quiz night at the local pub, but has a day job plumbing.

>>81294433
There's plenty of people in London that talk like that

>>81294462
Yeah, idiots famalam. How hard is it to say "ask"?

>>81294380
Where I live in Ireland we say 'yous' too, further up north they say 'yousens'. English as we know it will disappear after a few centuries

>>81294633
In Ulster lots of people say 'yous' but it's mostly the working class

The worst is obviously Shaun - "The Dark Destroyer"

The best is obviously Mark - "The Beast"

>>81294134

It's a bit annoying that they pretend that Shaun is smart enough to be a chaser.

>>81294336

Anne is best under pressure. Beast probably has the best knowledge. They are the top two. Then Sinha then newgirl

Shaun worst BY FAR

My favourite UK quiz show. Pointless is fun too as long as the category isn't boring.

>>81294336
Mark > Anne > Paul > Shaun

I haven't seen enough of the younger woman to comment.

>>81293831
This is an insightful post, you're quite right as to what makes the show enjoyable.

>it's a bradley giggles like a child at a silly answer name and makes the chaser lose their composure episdoe

>its a shawn gets loses to a score of 12 episode

>that final chase where the one remaining contestant went high during his chase, made it back, got 18 steps, and went on to win it
I think he ended up taking home 50k just for himself.

>>81295193
>Bradley tries to act like them getting caught even though they took the minus offer justifies their choice to take it
If you get caught on the lower offer, you're a thick shit who shouldn't be on the show.

>>81295193
Did you see the one where the first guy got a nine grand cash build up and all the rest of the other contestants took minus offers? He looked like he was going to kill himself. Sinahman seemed genuinely pissed off desu.

>>81295236
>it's a Bradley just about manages to hold himself back from swearing at one or more of the contestants, because they're all being pussies episode

>>81295270
That was one of the best examples of >>81295236
too. Bradley genuinely looked like he hated them by the end. I was torn between rooting for them in the final, so that guy would at least get some of the money he worked for, especially since he answered most of the final chase questions, and wanting to see the rest of the team crash and burn.

>>81295236
please show me videos of this. You see a face of discontent at times but thats all, as far as ive seen.

there was one episode with some contestant who thought he was hot shit and then proceeded to get EVERY question wrong so he had no cash build up, then lost to the chaser on a minus score. lost my shit

Can't remember the episode but it was some black dude called 'the italian stallion'

>>81295273
>'You're smart enough to take the higher offer but we need you back here for the final chase so just go for the middle'
>'You've done great in the cash build up and you've obviously got a lot of knowledge so go for the higher offer if you feel up to it but we need you back so I'd say just stick to the middle'
>'Just stick the middle mate and get back here for the final chase'

every fucking time

>>81295334
I remember that but I think he actually took the high offer.

>>81295347
It can always get worse though
>contestant encourages everyone to go for the higher offer, then doesn't go for it themselves
>they even take the lower offer

>it's a Bradley talks faster when asking the Chaser questions episode

>>81295302
If I was him I wouldn't have answered any questions in the final chase. I'd hate them having their shares more than I'd enjoy my own.

>>81295423
This. What the fuck. Bradley rattles through the questions in the final 30 seconds for the chasers.

Tipping Point is by far the worst gameshow, no idea how its still being regularly broadcast. Uninteresting host, success is determined entirely by luck and generally easy questions.

>>81294336
Beast is the best.

Governess is the worst (she's a massive hillshill, check her twitter)

In Australia we have a guy named Super Nerd. He is second best.

>>81296599

Shit banter and slow format. I'd watch it if they cut out the bullshit and trimmed it down to 20 minutes. You can basically watch the whole show just by switching over during ad breaks in The Chase.

The prefect has some balls desu. Hyper rule focused fearless autists are incredibly useful if their powers are harnessed.

>>81298597
To be fair he's either listing off a bunch of shit he remembered earlier, or he's being fed answers through an earpiece. Either way not that easy to present like that. He'd probably be a bit more natural if he were reading things off his laptop screen.

>>81295386
yeah he did, lol I think he's just like 'only got one chance', completely fucked it up

This episode's going well already

>>81298656
I'm referring to him having played a part in actually coming up with the idea for Pointless, it's easily one of the best gameshows of all time with a really simple yet effective idea behind it.

What do you think the Beast's TDEE is? The fat bastard is like 6'7" and must need at least 4000 calories just to stay that size. He should do a fucking diet quiz.
