Panellists who annoy you Page 2

Two of the main reasons I turn off QI anything;

Phill Jupitus
John Sessions

Agreed.

I really didn't like Roger McGough on QI. I hated it when he read a poem and no one even asked for it.

Poets.. Rolling eyes

They do know it... the bastards!

:D

Peter Serafinowicz does not belong in this thread.

Rory McGrath... punchable smug twit.

By their very nature panellists would be wooden...

For some reason attractive women seem to be annoying as panelists: Fearne Cotton, Alesha Dixon (Buzzcocks etc), Tara Palmer-Tomkinson (Would I Lie To You? etc). Maybe it's because that's what most female presenters are there for -to look nice, not to tell jokes.

Blame the bookers, not the guests.

Phill Jupitus, he is not remotely funny.
Andy Parsons
Russell Howard
Reginald D Hunter (think that's his name, he's American...) - every time I see him on something his material seems to be race-related, saying things like 'the black/white folks are like...'. I just find it a bit lazy really - same with Shappi Korsandi going 'that's not my dad' on MTW when a picture of an Iraqi man came up for her stand up bit...just not funny! Also she was pretty dire as a panellist.

I don't mind Jo Brand, she's reliable on shows like QI, or hosting HIGNFY, and can be funny at times. I certainly don't dislike her as a panel guest.

I like Reginald.
As a bonus, he always has interesting hair-dos.

I think Reginald D Hunter is great. Shappi Korsanid isn't so good though.
