Whenever he's on a show they have to have a talk before the shooting starts to tell everyone how to greet him, right? Like, do you shake his little lobster claw? Hug? Just nod your head to be safe?

If it's a panel show, sure.
I really like The Unbelievable Truth hosted by David Mitchell. If you haven't heard it yet, try it out.
4 panelists read a pre-pared short lecture about a subject that has to be completely factually false but they also have to sneak in 5 very improbable truths as well. It sounds boring on paper but the format works and it's been going on for a while so they know which guests are good on it so they book them more.

Sandi mentions her lesbianism just as much as Stephen did. It doesn't bother me much. I think she did a good job taking over from Fry and I enjoyed her first series as the host.

>>84981725
She's basically a female version of Stephen Fry. Both revel in their sexuality and can be witty when they need to, but both have a tendency to over-indulge in the fact that they're quite smart and well-read.
I could suffer it from Stephen as host and I can suffer it from Sandi as host. QI is still entertaining to me. The real humour comes from the guests and Alan is still on top form and they usually get one or two decent comedians on who can all carry the show while token minority makes silly jokes in the background.

I hate them. I hate their smug London bullshit. I hate their constant, unwavering criticism of anyone who doesn't get on board with their mental politics. I hate the fact they all show up on each other's shows, which are all identical. I can imagine them sat at a dinner party working out who gets to go on which show next.

WILTY is great, one of my favourites.
The whole smart/dumb thing is a huge charade/stage persona thing they developed early on when Deaton still presented, but it works so they built on it.
Mitchell is working/middle class but they make him out to be extreme upper class which he just isn't. Mack may be working class and Northern but he really plays it up for the show and like some other anon said he's actually the one with the quickest wit and can turn any sentence someone said into a joke.

As for Rob Brydon? Who can hate that little Welsh guy? I actually feel bad for him now that his top two impersonations are dead. No more Ronnie Corbett or Terry Wogan impressions I'm afraid Rob.

It's dire. A very left wing guy I know went to a screening and even he said it got a bit tiresome. Hislop just ranted on about Trump to the audience. Merton, apparently, was still quite funny but shilled hard for a show he was doing the next month.

Hislop is going through life in reverse. He started out as a switched on, principled and shrewd man and turned into a 20 year old student union candidate.

WILTY, quick as a flash:

I felt the same way. He also wins a lot more often and guests joke on how he's finally free now that Stephen's gone.

The real reason is that the last couple series of QI were littered with scheduling problems. Davies did an interview where he said it came to feel like a slog. Sometimes he had to film three episodes a day (and that's like 2-3 hours of filming which they cut down to 30 mins, then 45 mins for QI XL) for scheduling reasons like availability of guests, studio time etc. Hard to be on your comedy A game when you've been filming for 8 hours straight. I heard they stopped doing that now and they film one episode a day and an entire series over the span of two months or so.

If you're blind, maybe. Spotting actual masonic imagery isn't exactly hard, anon, there's no need to try and spot them in things that don't look anything like masonic imagery unless you squint and turn your head.

I honestly think it's because of a form of low-grade sexism from previous decades that we're still catching up with. The women who DON'T do the "Haha I'm a woman!" jokes do the same jokes as the blokes. But when it comes to the people hiring comedians they'd rather hire the bloke doing bloke jokes than the woman doing bloke jokes, because guys are still more accepted in comedy circuits and you don't have to risk having people go "ugh female comedians aren't funny, I'm not going" when you book a bloke. On the other hand you can't have a bloke do the "Haha I'm a woman! Periods!" jokes and so to fill that slot you pull in the female comedians that are fine with just filling that slot. Then those women end up writing material that'll get them more jobs and before you know it they've built up a massive catalogue of jokes they know will get them further jobs and it's too late to change your whole act.

Top tier comfy, this is what I listen to at work: http://justaminute.radio.net/

I remember one episode where the subject was "radio" or something, and Clement Freud got the subject and just said "Actually, I prefer I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue", made me laugh like mad, and I totally agree with him.

I fucking love the early shows though, Kenneth Williams + Clement Freud = GOAT episode, and boy was Kenny right about not having women on the show, I love some of the old birds but Sue Perkins and Jenny Eclaire fucking ruin any episode they appear in by challenging "repetition of I" so they can be unfunny and talk about muh vagina for a few seconds.

Her entire comedy is about Hollywood gossip. She reads all those magazines, watches all those shows, Kardashian stuff etc, and uses her vast knowledge of (alleged) celebrity life as comedy....somehow. Most of her jokes rely on celebrity gossip and she often takes a real world event and compares it to Kanye West's love life for some reason. I don't get her either, but she's nice to look at.
I guess teenage girls like her comedy? In any case, we're obviously not her demographic.

That makes sense.

It really is. It's a simple format but it worked out really well and it's on its 5th/6th series now? I'll be honest and say that half the time I literally have no idea who half the guests are (think most of them are still up-and-coming on the comedy scene), but it's always good viewing.

Yeah, it's not just that clip. It's every time he's on one of these panel shows (they do it to other people to). Everyone treats him a bit like a child and if they weren't laughing they would probably be sneering at him. It really gets to me for some reason desu
Also yeah, it doesn't work for me. I don't remember ever laughing at his stuff. His 'jokes' always seem to simple and obvious and he doesn't have the best delivery
>>
>>84984474
I quite like Frank Skinner but recent Room 101 has been shit. When Skinner's version started it was still alright, they had some decent guests, wild card round etc. Recent series is just a line-up of "whoever the fuck is available", just two rounds, and they even got rid of the silly props in favour of an awkward 5 seconds of silence as the guest's pet peeve slowly appears on a digital screen in written form.

Here's something that's started to bother me recently, watching the most recent season of Mock the Week.
It seems as if all the original talent has left, and now they've wheeled in these new guys, and Mock the Week has been on air for a long time. I feel as if most of the comedians who appear on it nowadays would've been watching the show back when it started, and basically built themselves to be a similar kind of comedian.

I mean this is really autistic but there's this fat red-headed girl who is on it nowadays and I've noticed that her speech pattern seems to emulate the way I remember people talking on the show way back when. She starts talking about something, but then takes a pause halfway through without having made the point. Like last time I saw she said something like "which they acting like is something we're.......not supposed to be mad about." It was like that's the part where you are supposed to nod along but she hasn't actually said anything.

Also comedians these days are too good looking and I hate them.
What an awful post I'm sorry if you read it

I used to love 8 Out Of 10 Cats. Sean Lock and Jon Richardson were great as team captain and the guests were pretty decent. Then they started the Countdown spin-off and we didn't get any regular Cats episodes anymore.

But now it actually IS back but they fucking got rid of Lock and Richardson and replaced them with "ugh, aren't my teeth big" and that sexy Irish comedian and the guests are all entry-level comedians who played in the local pub that afternoon and can't believe their luck that they're on telly.

It's a good thing the Countdown version is reliably good entertainment. But all I wanna know is why Sean Lock and Jon Richardson never appear on the same episode again. They plucked them away from regular Cats but now they don't even show up every week for the Countdown version. It's either Sean or Jon and a guest captain. I don't wanna go all conspiracy theorist but what's going on there? Did they have a fight or something?

>I don't wanna go all conspiracy theorist but what's going on there? Did they have a fight or something?

You know how big of a deal they made out of Jon finally having a girlfriend? Sean got there first. Jon found out when his kid turned out a lager-sipping ginger at a month old and since then can't be in the same room as Sean without throttling him.

So am I. But you're kinda right. Mock the Week's gone to shit in recent years and I have no idea why I even bother watching it these days, or why it gets recommissioned.
That show died the moment Frankie Boyle quit. He was the only regular who was actually funny. Hugh Dennis is just there for his pension now and doesn't give a fuck. Andy Parsons was never funny. The sight of Russell Howard's face alone just makes me angry. Chris Addison never did much that left any impression on me.
The only funny moments these days come from banter between Dara and Ed Byrne, who play really well off each other. As for all these new faces they keep bringing in every week, I can't stand them. The show is terrible and unfunny and again I have no idea why I put myself through the effort of watching it

He does look sick of it. If you rewatch old episodes of 8oo10c and compare his facial expression and general attitude to newer episodes you can see he's done with this shit. He's said multiple times on Cats does Countdown that he sees no point to it because he's shit at it and Jon's pretty good at it, and he makes a point of telling his team member that it doesn't last as long as you think and you can go home. I've always taken his grumpiness as part of some stage persona he plays for laughs, but now I'm starting to doubt myself.
He's been touring more and more in recent years which explains his long absences from episodes, and I think he just had a moment where he thought "I'm not fucking doing this show forever" and decided to fixate more on his stand-up career.
I'm sure that being a team captain for 12 years can get into your head a little. You don't wanna be known as "that guy off 8 out of 10 cats" all your life.

I wish he'd do another sitcom. 15 Storeys High was brilliant.

I would hardly say that's the funniest part of the show. I think Howard is the funniest character really.

>Boosh always came across me as goofy and "random for the sake of being random".
I don't think so. I think it's very clever. Very deadpan.

It's just a very original show, at the time there wasn't really anything like it. I think the first series was the best. Probably because they had honed that material for a while because it's the material they had used on their radio show.

But yeah I just think it was really original, didn't take itself too seriously, just had some really good jokes in it. And I disagree that it was random just for the sake of it.

>anything Fielding did sitcom-wise
The Boosh isn't just him though. On his own I can see why you might think "he's a bit too over the top and I'm not really into that", but Julian Barratt balances that with some really deadpan comedy. That's why I think Boosh is so good. And of course it's got the supporting cast of Fielding's brother and the other guys.
>>
>>84985835
That was terrible. I mean, I'm all for giving people opportunities and that, and I've accepted that 8oo10c has now become a show where new up-and-coming comedians get a chance to be on telly while Cats does Countdown gets the well-known and familiar, good comedians.

But a 30 minute topical quiz panel show is not the place for someone with such a major speech impediment. She did two jokes that took literally 5 minutes. 3 minutes was getting the set-up out and then we all had to endure 2 full minutes of her trying to pronounce the punchline we already know and saw coming three minutes earlier. Christ almighty. Worse than ventriloquist woman.

I find it really weird that you'd go into that type of work with that impediment without working around it. Stephen Hawkins is apparently a pretty funny guy despite delivering his jokes with a goddamn computer, so why not do something like that if you have trouble talking? Build your act around that like Bill Bailey builds an act around playing music.

Or just get a job writing jokes for other people. At its height a punchline isn't just some words you say. You need the right cadence when delivering it and it needs to fit the rhythm of the entire joke to make the delivery fit. There's plenty of comedians who just write jokes for other people to tell, because they can't do that, or they can't stand being up on stage. She could easily be one of them.

In a lot of cases that's a good thing because people find understatement funny. For an incredibly common example see donation TTS on twitch streams.

Well it's not Boyle at his best I admit. He's obviously playing it safe a bit because he just got a 4-episode series commissioned by the BBC for the first time in years. If he wants to keep a career in telly he'll have to wind it down a little.

He's best at stand-up though because he can say whatever the fuck he likes and that's when he's at his best.
>>
>>84983039
I never got this guy. Is he a character? I mean, it can't be genuine can it? Must be some kind of terrible example of someone trying to be "down with da kids" or an unsubtle attack on modern British youths. Either way he's terrible. What is his demographic even supposed to be?

Observational comedy sells though, anon. Michael McIntyre was the highest earning comedian in the world about two years ago.
You don't get year-long sold-out big venue stand-up tours if people don't find you funny. Now it might not be your thing, but obviously you're in the minority there.
>>
>>84988152
Well you see it isn't genuine or trying to be 'down with da kids'. It is in fact ... a joke
>>
>>84981779
One of the best presenters on it. My favourite episode is probably the one with Warwick Davies hosting. Gonna see if I can find it online now.

So Dave and Taskmaster are getting some praise in this thread. Does anybody watch Dara's show "Go 8-bit" about video games? Seems like a fun concept but some of the trailers just looked like I wouldn't enjoy it, for whatever reason. Is it any good?
>>
>>84988833
Lee Mack is quick as a shot and a lot of fun. I still enjoy David Mitchell's rants (even though some of them feel forced now) and the way the show makes him out to be the poshest thing since the Queen by giving him certain lies to do.
But Mack gets the rough end of the stick I think, because he always gets the most implausible lies he has to convince the others of. I think the producers liked it and saw that it worked great for laughs, but now every episode they give him stuff like
>I write Christmas cards with both my hand and my foot to save time
>I can smell a dead fly in the room
>I can tell the circumference of your head
Absolutely everyone knows its a lie and they're all going to enjoy the monkey dance his way around this absurd lie

This one was especially cruel

>>
>>84989354
I watched the first episode but had to switch off. I like Dara and I think a show about vidya is an interesting idea but I couldn't stand that Susan Calman woman screeching. I think they had to play Tetris with the player blindfolded and her giving instructions or something.
But don't judge it by me I only saw like 15 minutes of it, maybe some other episodes have tolerable guests or interesting video games

This. 100%. It was the last TV show that I watched regularly. Haven't seen the latest series as I was getting sick of its blatantly left leaning anti brexit anti Trump propaganda.

>make a persona turning Neds into the running joke of your shows

Fucking hell mate, sort yourself out.
>>
>>84989354
I don't know what's going on at Dave but suddenly they're going from "that channel that shows repeats of everything" to actually making decent, good tv series of their own. Taskmaster is a fantastic format and Alan Davies: As Yet Untitled is one of the best chatshows in recent years, also because of its format being "no plugging, just talking". It's just Alan chatting with four people who prepared one anecdote and that's it. No one's there to promote their new book or tour or whatever. Just talking. And somehow it really works and they all play off each other really well. I don't think there's a bad episode in there
>>
>>84989363
I think they just realised that Lee was the one that was quickwitted enough to be able to make sorta-funny shit up for long enough. The lies themselves are obviously just there for when they need a certain amount of screen-time eaten up, to fit the runtime of the episodes and you couldn't ask Mitchell to routinely do that for each episode.

I'd rather have them cut the episode down in time if they can't get enough material, honestly.
>>
>>84990008
They often end on Mitchell or Mack and I think it's to fill time yeah. Or they didn't get any good material from a guest and it was cut, so they have to do more.

And yeah, Lee's the one quick enough to pull that stuff off while still being entertaining. The key ring one is one of my favourites because he didn't make a single mistake

I hated that shit for years but then it grew on me ironically and now I unironically quote larry and achmed the dead terrorist all the time and giggle to myself, its classic comedy desu

>>84981424
In our time is great. The one they did recently about Seneca was really engaging.
>>
>>84989354
if you're a SERIOUS gamer it might annoy you, if you like the people on it and have played a game at least once in your life you might think it's fun.

it's an ok concept but really depends if you like the guests on it and if the games they pick are actually suited to competitive viewing.
>>
>>84981927
This desu. Amstell was very good but Lamarr was just superb.

On shit comedians, fucking hate Millican and Stephen K Amos. How those two get regular appearances is beyond me.
