I love the show, pays great homage to the original.
The presenters - particularly Romesh - is probably the least suited to host such a fun, and light show.
He spends the whole time being condescending, rude and just overly negative about the show and the contestants that are just having a good time. Where he clearly is not.
Nothing wrong with poking fun but he comes across as that arse in a pub that after two minutes of trying to laugh off his awkward Reddit level rudeness, you just walk away.
He's just so off the mark of the spirit of this show, and in the effort to appeal to the UK market they're trying to have rudeness which is normally sharp witty and funny that we're known for - and cram the absolute maximum level of "yeah it ain't that good, what a pathetic attempt" energy as possible. He just isn't having a good time and the audience knows it.
Tom is alright, he just ain't that funny. Romesh is just awful. Enough to actually ruin the show.
I'll finish it, because I love TC, but this clear attempt to appeal to a wider UK market you've ruined a show.
