Mock the Week and HIGNFY
Then 8 out of 10 and WILTY.
Yay! At last someone who appreciates the Buzzcocks! Thought I was alone.

I was so hoping it'd be true though 
He made me laugh loads of times but I just can't think of owt.
He stole the show for the first 10 mins imo.
Buzzcocks is brilliant, when they replaced Lamarr with Amstell I thought it would be terrible, but if anything I think he's better.
My list would be:
Mock The Week
Never Mind The Buzzcocks
QI
Would I Lie To You
8 Out of 10 Cats
Have I Got News For You
I love them all, but for me HIGNFY is getting a bit old now. I wasn't overly fond of the last series to be honest. Paul Merton is still ridiculously good though, one of the quickest witted comedians around certainly.
8 Out of 10 cats is alright, I went to see a recording of it this series (the episode with Kelly Osbourne and Theo Paphitis) and I think it really loses some potential by having non-comedians on (such as the ones mentioned above). Theo died on his arse monumentously. Jimmy Carr, Jason Manford and Sean Lock are really good though.
Frankie Boyle, Hugh Dennis and Russell Howard make me laugh my tits off most weeks on Mock The Week, and the gratuitous love affair between Stephen Fry and Alan Davies that is just waiting to be exposed makes me love QI too.
I think Amstell's great (wouldn't want to know him personally, though) and I love Stephen Fry and Alan Davies in QI. Both shows gain when Bill Bailey's on the panel. I also like Jo Brand on QI.
I've only seen a few clips of WILTY, but David Mitchell's quite funny sometimes.
I don't know the other ones mentioned. I'd add Just A Minute and I'm Sorry, I Haven't A Clue.
The above boils down to this list:
ISIHAC
Buzzcocks
Just A Minute
QI
WILTY
I want to give Amstell a big cuddle.

Yay! Another cocker! Definitely would be near or at the top for me.

Which one's Hugh Dennis? Is he the bald guy or the young dark-haired one?
The former, I don't think I've ever heard him say anything funny. The latter, just something about him I really don't like. He's got a smackable face.
Alan Davies - I really wanna be his mate. I just reckon he'd be one of the greatest people to have as a mate ever. And of course Stephen is just legend.

Never even heard of that! Who's that got in it?

Amstell's ace. He carries the show brilliantly. Would you climb aboard though? 
He wouldn't let me. 
Hugh Dennis is the middle aged(ish) one that always sits next to Frankie Boyle.

LOL Oh shit yeah that kind of slipped my mind!
You could turn him though, I feel sure.

Ohhh, you mean the...ahh, how do you describe him?
Anyway he used to do like a Max Headroom type character a few years back?

Unbelievable.

Hugh used to be on the Mary Whitehouse Experience!
Or does that mean nothing to you.
Hugh Dennis was also part of The Mary Whitehouse Experience with Steve Punt, David Baddiel & Rob Newman.
Damn you zooo!!!!!
Toooooooooooooo slow.
You and your insistence on providing names and details!
