The reviewer who stated it was unfunny is wrong. The very reason I like this program is because of the wit from the comedians, whether it is prepared or instantaneous. The other reason I like this program is I have learned a lot from the sometimes unbelievable trivia.
While I can't stand the enormous applause given each & every time by a very drunk and eager audience, I wish I could skip through Jon's explanation of the rules each and every time.
I have tivo'd all episodes and for the very first time given a series extended # of episodes to store. Its disappointing that tivo doesn't have a 5 or 10s skip and I have to bear the banter and applause every few seconds.
What I fail to dig is why the comedians would confidently give a wrong answer thusly not rewarding the measly amounts given to contestants who are made to act like the reward $ is better than winning a lottery.
Funny thing is they always invite a extra-wannabe-overly-enthusiastic and animated young contestant couple who are clueless about past events that the aged comedians are better at.
UPDATE: Got tired of Jon Kelly screaming Jackay and that woman blushing like a crow, and the meagerly paid contestants made to cavort and scream for making $100, with the comics giving totally wrong answers super-confidently; was willing to turn a blind eye to this, was after all learning a few things; but the most irritating thing was the WILD screams from a maniacal audience for each and every effing thing. It just got louder and wilder. Deleted the darn scheduled recording.
