Featured review
Tongue in Cheek, Honest, Silly fun.
This show just popped back into my head. Late night staple (as in like 1am start or something back when there was actually bizarre but very watchable stuff on TV for us night owls) in the mid 90s, this was presented by 2 people who went on to forge very good careers for themselves, and watching it back (there are 3 or so episodes I've found online plus clips) you can see they are natural talents.
It's hard to review because yes, its trash, but it's not 'so bad its good' type. It knows what it is, and for me I think the people who will get thr most out of it are intelligent people (like me ;)) because the contestants are crowd often dont cover themselves in intellectual glory, and Davina/Claudia seem to know this and make occasional references that go over everyones head except ours, and so it ends up being a cringeworthy (in a good way), bizarre, funny little show, and the hour long runtime flies by. In recent watching, it still holds up! Itd just genuinely funny watching men have 30 seconds to chat someone up, or recreate a sexy ad by popping their pants in a tumble drier. Maybe it's best to sum up with 'it sounds awful, it kind of is awful, but it knows it's awful, but when you watch it you'll see overall its the opposite of awful!'. Its great, I just wish I could get more episodes but there was an issue with the announcer and so I think they're now unavailable. Find it in the usual video places!
