>kills QIBBC is so full of retard fart sniffing PC idiots.
>>219928406BBC PC culture killed the panel show and also their country.
It was inevitable since Fry didn't want to host that show anymore. Plus, it's been on since 2003. It had a good run
>>219928406>QII thought it was pronounced IQ. Any who, I'm a burger and I've just recently discovered 8 out of 10 cats does count down, as well as Would I Lie to you. Of course, I haven't gotten to modern episodes yet as I'm still watching bits from pre covid. Are there any other similar types of British comedy panel shows to look for?As you bongs say, ceereo
>>219928543If you've seen one panel show you've seen them all.
>>219928543>Are there any other similar types of British comedy panel shows to look for?Classic Never Mind the Buzzcocks is great but you will be losing out on some cultural context. Plenty of segments will still be funny though.If you like Bob Mortimer on WiLTY then you could check out Shooting Stars which leans into a lot of absurdityBig Fat Quiz of the Year if you get the right panels Alternatively - fuck off the panel shows, fire up Only Connect and pound off to Victoria Coren>Avoid at all costs: Mock the WeekHave I Got News For YouCelebrity Juice
>>219928543>As you bongs say, ceereoI've never heard this in me life
>>219928406Just have to power through three more series and it can finally be over. Also, it died when they stopped doing to General Ignorance round.
>>219928724I suspect you're right, but I've been having fun with these and would like to find more. You bongs have been hiding Bob Mortimer from us all these years. Just look at that mug, the guy is a comedy genius.>>219929335Cheers, thanks for the suggestions.>If you like Bob Mortimer on WiLTY then you could check out Shooting Stars which leans into a lot of absurdityi do very much and I will be investigating the shooting stars. Cheers, bong anon

AHHHH MEN ARE STUPID CHUDS I HATE THEM SO MUCH
>>219928543taskmaster
>>219929941Great stuff.
>>219928406>panel showThey did you a favour by weening you off that midwit slop.
I like British panel shows because I'm so busy trying to figure out who the panelists are that I fail to question why I should care like I do with other celebrity bullshit
>>219928406Phil Jupitus making fun of Stephen Fry's poshness will never not be funny https://youtu.be/YSIzXiPydPQ?t=111
is it officially over? They could have just made it good...Doesn't bode well when they're cancelling panel shows. That's supposed to be the cheap programming.
>>219932338Its dead Jim
>the BBC is implodingIndia won't like this.
>>219928406retard isn't a nice wordreported
Why are panel shows so popular in BBC land? What happens to comedians who don't go on the panels? Do they just not have a career?
SCRUMPTIOUS
>>219933858>announcing a report
>>219928406I don't hate her, but she does show just how good Stephen Fry is
>>219934040Pretty much
>>219934040The UK used to have a really strong comedic scene and they could shuffle them around to create watchable content pretty cheap. It made more sense when the people on those panels were brilliant. It really got watered down when they enforced DEI quotas and the situation is so awkward now, no one knows how to reverse it.
>>219930594the current season is so tame
>>219934040cheap to produce
>>219934040They’re very cheap, can be used to fill quotas easily, can be used as a vector for trading favours and can be used to push “talent” into the public eye.The format makes it very easy for a minority of veterans to do the heavy lifting for people who have absolutely no place being there.
>>219934040>Why are panel shows so popular in BBC land?A certain percentage of broadcast TV has to be locally produced, and panel shows are the cheapest way of filling that time.
*ruins comedy*
>>219937273can’t stand her
Why haven't they got Stephen back as a guest for at least 1 episode
>>219928406I won't even miss english people honestly.
>>219937273I'll just take a nap when she finishes talking.
>>219937273>AAAUURRRAAAUUG AUAAHHANNNN VAGINA UAAAA HAHAHAHAAn entire season of Taskmaster down the drain.
>>219937382the allegations
>>219928406QI was already crippled when the four lad panels were banned, before that their episodes had full kino lineups.
stephen fry is a paedophile though
>>219939258>>219939111he just needs to say he's muslim and trans and they have to bring him back
>it's so stupid isn't it, beating your wife>it's your wife>it's like keying your own car
>>219929491>You bongs have been hiding Bob Mortimer from us all these yearsMortimer has been on the telly since 1995 lad, where have you been?
>>219937273I like her enormous tits, so I don't actually pay attention when she is talking. I only found out recently that she is Joey.I also found out she usedto be a page 3 girl and is married to Joe "The Body Couch" Wicks.
>>219939593Different Rosie Jones
>>219937801Even the one with that horrifying muslim blob is more bearable than the one with this fucking spaz.
What did we think of Last One Laughing UK?
>>219928406They put in a regulation that all panel shows had to have at least one woman and one brownoid on at all times or something.QI was fine under Fry when it was mixed, all boys, or even the all girls episondes. When they really started enforcing this shit was at the end of Fry's run and this dumb bitch's turn had nothing but unfunny women and equally unfunny dei's.
>>219939519>Mortimer has been on the telly since 1995 lad, where have you been?big night out was about 89/90.
>>219941307Shit.
>>219928543Watch for episodes where they joke about Jimmy's being a pedo Also watch for people pre-emptively joking about Sean Locke dying in a way that doesn't seem casualStill like the show though
>>219942988>joking about Sean Locke dying in a way that doesn't seem casualDid people know he had cancer, or was there a conspiracy to kill him o.0
>>219939593>she is Joey>page 3 girlWhat does any of this mean?
>>219943363page 3 girls was the great british tradition of tabloid newspapers featuring topless women, rosie jones was the name of a popular model.
It died around 2011, before Sandi.
>>219934040Stand-up comedians love it because the jokes that don't land will be edited out and they can promote their stand-up gigs.
Is it a dolphin in a bathtub?
>>219943624DID SOMEBODY SAY THE DAILY MAIL?!?!
>>219928406Reminder that this woman tried to start a Feminist political party so extreme that despite her celebrity it received so few votes that she lost her deposit.
>>219943311No idea It seemed like it was completely unexpected though. He was supposedly a bit of a drinker, unless that was just a bit of a character exaggeration or something. Regardless, Sean would regularly prod at Jimmy being some sort of biblical embodiment of evil. The Rachel moment I'm thinking of was ep 1 s9 I think? Maybe 2, it's in the beginning of one of the episodes, notably Susie Dent looks terribly grim in the background in whichever ep it was,I'll find it and post her >if you only knew how bad things really were If thread stays up
>>219928406>PC idiots.the british have to pay for their tv and but they have a really high quality of show in general. they need to be inclusive like who fucking cares if the whole town in midsomer murders isn't white anymore. if you walk around in the street everyone isn't white like it was weird when tv didn't actually reflect reality and its kind of toxic to want it to only have people like you on it
bait used to be subtle
>>219943311Ahh Amazon had it mislabelled possibly Here, it isn't that weird but I thought it was weird enough>https://youtu.be/cgQMPhFRrRA 14:55 is when she talks about the weird dream
>>219937273what are you talking about, everybody patiently waiting for her to finish her Timmy routine then awkwardly laughing at her already weak punchline ruined by the 7 work days delivery time is comedy gold
>>219939258par for the course
>>219939258buggering boys is trad
>>219946203>Susie Dent looks terribly grim in the backgroundis she the original slutty librarian?
>>219928406as far as female comedians go she isn't that bad desu
>HA>HA>HA>HA>HAAA
>>219946306>a really high quality of show in generallolol
>>219928406QI and Have I got news for you were comedykino
>>219948036She was a good panel member but a weaker host.
>>219949643I think she's done fine, the whole show had already been declining for years before she took over. If the bbc were determined to pick a woman as host after fry left they could have picked a lot worse.
>>219949643I watched some clips of her QI on youtube and honestly it felt like the panel just got worse? When the panelists delivered she seemed ok. Ultimately Locke, Vegas and Mortimer were the only comedians that could carry a show on their own.
>>219950510The decline was already significant when you couldn't get any legendary panels thanks to DEI mandates BBC had, Sandy had to suffer through ever worsening guidelines and a list of panelists.
>>219951182Its weird watching older episodes of these shows as a first time viewer knowing that it will all fall apart. I didn't even know Sean Lock was dead until last night
>>219939519the yanks aren't ready for Vic and Bobhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hK8EbafSlg
>>219939258I don't care anymore. I just want TV to stop being horrible.
>watched all original episodes as they aired>dropped it after Fry left because it wasn't the same>recently started rewatching the whole series from series A and kept going till the most recent episodeshere is my verdict: Sandi is OK. sometimes she could get overly feminist which is annoying, but the real reason QI sucks now is because of the guests they invite to the panel. it used to be comedians, and now it's just quota-approved left wing friendly retards who have nothing interesting to say
I think it's funnyMy only experience with UK game shows is watching the Big Fat Quiz, and very rapidly decreases in humor as the years go by and the panel becomes less white and literal retarded people start being on the show
>>219951490you should try WILTYfull episodes, not the clipped out bits
>>219928406>Lesbian who makes disgusting sexual comments non stopCan we go back to tying these people up to a piece of wood and setting it all on fire?
someone should steal this format, but just hire people who are actually funny, like back in the 00's.
>>219929877>Men are schtoopid, innit?>*audience gives a standing ovation*
>>219951609uhh chuddie that would mean all white male panelsyou don't want that do you, you racist?pic related, the last QI episode with an all male panelaptly the episode was called "Kings"
>>219951677Not sure Carr countsHe's sexless like a mannequin or a eunuch
>>219948798he's such a dickhead now. he comes across like ricky gervais, just seems like such a smug twat. doing bits about saudi arabia and that you can't criticize him if you've ever driven a car. he should just admit he did it because he likes money, which is obvious the amount of trash shows he's done, instead of acting morally superior. he's also doing decade old 4chan memes about "it's not gay if the balls touch" in his standup, like how gervais did an attack helicopter bit like a decade after it got stale.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKWrpuPrc90#t=12m50s
>>219952342lol
>>219951325https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Os82UYqssScthis is better lmao
>>219951325>>219952415dear god. . .
>>219952415me and my dad still say fakey cake 75 years later.
>>219952551you wouldn't get it...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRN-5XQy3FU
>>219928406I don't 100% blame her, some of the later Stephen Fry series were pretty badSean Lock makes his last apperence in series I, Jack Whitehall makes his first appearence in Series J, there is a clear stopping point.
>>219928543As a bong, Would I Lie to You is the only panel show I enjoy, mostly because of Lee Mack who is hilarious
>>219952992You're right, I do not get it lol
>>219952992They remind me of the fish bithttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=klg4yq1Y88ABritish humornisnusually.pretty funny, but I really dont understand the grotesque absurdist stuff. Its a bit creepy init?
>>219953560The editing is really good too, I can't believe that they get away with borderline removing boring guests from the finished episode but it really works
>>219953560And because of David Mitchell's beard
>>219953765so, here's the joke of Vic and Bob...Nah, you wouldn't get it.
>>219928543Canuck here.WILTY is probably the best the bongs have.Old QI is great and I didnt mind the dyke host but I only saw a few episodes with her.With Sean Lock gone dont expect much, the people made these shows good and they cant easily be swapped with niggers, fags, and women and still function like theyve tried.
>>219953219>that bit where he puts both hands behind his backwas giving the finger to vic and bob because they were putting him off, hence bob's reaction
>>219928543>ceereo
Mark Lamarr>>>>Simon Amstell
I saw Alan Davies stand up last year Half the show was about how his dad used to fuck him as a child It wasn't very funny
Incredibly underrated
>>219954918Catterick is their true kino, you plonker rodney.
>>219954918Matt Berry and Bob Mortimer is the combo I've been wanting to see on one of these panel shows. Thanks
>>219955049Agreed!
>>219943363Joey is the name given to spastics in the UK, after Joey Decan. The impression of him that schoolchildren in Britain would do of his appearance on the children's show Blue Peter became so offensive to spastics that you weren't even able to call them spastics anymore, and the main charity for them literally had to change its name from the Spastic Society to SCOPE.In the 70s Blue Peter did an article on a man called Joey Decan who was a spastic and had just had a book published by him and his carer about his life, because few people knew about spastics at the time. It was meant to be a heartwarming story of triumph against adversity, but to most of the kids watching it was fucking hilarious because Joey was speaking like the archetypal retard of legend and making involuntary movements akin to Dr Strangelove trying to stifle a Nazi salute. So obviously everyone would be doing impressions of it in the playground the next day, especially when one of their fellow pupils did something dumb, like miss an easy goal in football or accidentally call the teacher mum.Thing is though, kids were still doing this when I was at school in the 90s, even though by then most kids didn't know where it had come from. Its kind of like when people do a Jimmy Chin or Jimmy Reckon, despite nobody knowing who Jimmy Hill was these days.
>>219954918sex with Morgana
>>219929335>pound off to Victoria Coren
>>219953219My favourite George Dawes numberhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81wYqNqvPrw
>>219951677Never forget what they took from you
>>219954765>Alan Davieshas he done anything besides Jonathan Creek and QI?is he considered famous in England?tried to watch JC with my mom for a bit, had a decent premise, but it went to shit so fast we couldn't keep watchingall I know from Davies is Creek, QI, and his dad molested himwtf
>>219928406She does seriously suck.QI always had that percentage of "This is just utter horseshit", but since Thundercunt here took over, that proportion has ballooned out of all control.It's painful to watch now.
>>219957466Jonathan Creek is well known. I believe he's also a standup but no, it's just those two really. QI alone makes him famous.
DAILY MAIL A BUNCH OF NAZIS
>>219951608That's what's turned me off the modern show the most, more than just the panelists sucking. They waste like 10 minutes of every episode getting bogged down in sex jokes instead of talking about interesting stuff.
