Off the Telly Review
8 Out of 10 Cats could hardly be more derisive. No effort has been made to disguise its wanton copying of the HIGNFY format, complete with variations on the 'newspaper headlines', 'odd one out', and 'missing word' rounds, concealed by the tissue-thin excuses of survey results. Asked to guess the five most talked about subjects by their pollees, it's embarrassingly obvious that the charade is entirely unnecessary, and they may as well be asked questions on the week's news and be done with it.
