Best Panel Show?

What is it?

My vote goes to QI. Far and away the top of the lot.

Are there any dead ones?

QI gets my vote too. There is some news about that - it is definitly moving to BBC One, but it won't be shown until next year.

QI. Although HIGNFY is great too.

Yerp, I like HIGNFY. I prefer it to MTW - there's less scope for silent guests with the smaller panel size. MTW is quite good, though.

I'm wondering whether anyone will actually disagree about QI.

You're all wrong. It's I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue. Although MTW, QI, HIGNFY all great too. I also like 8 out of 10 Cats, which is impossible to abbreviate (80010C?).

HIGNFY in it's golden era was the best.

Has anyone seen that new quiz with Victoria Coren on BBC4 that's so smart arse, the question categories are in Latin?

I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue is a radio show, isn't it? I think we get it early in the mornings over here on RN, just before the Goon Show. Very enjoyable.

Gotta be QI. I am not well versed enough in UK pop culture or the day to day goings on over there to get most other panel shows. Would I lie to You comes second not because of quality, but because I can follow it.

QI, Mock The Week and HIGNFY are the best at the moment. 9 Out Of Ten Cats is awful. Buzzcocks can be Ok. Would I Lie To You as well, on a good day.

I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue is a radio show, isn't it?

Yep, that's the one.

Griff beat me to it. ISIHAC FTW!

I quite like WILTY.. Buzzcocks can be ok but terrible at times. Mock the week is also pretty good!
:)

I'd plump for I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue as well.

Should it come back, though? And who should take over from Humph?

Chip: That's a saucy minx in your new avatar. Who is it?
