8 Out of 10 Cats

Too much canned laughter. Even the most stupid attempts at humor get a raucous laugh, and most of the attempts are stupid.

I enjoyed the last half of the first show I watched so I started the second episode. The laugh tracks are Unnecessary, loud, &cover up and potential humor, not only by being louder that the comics but by being distracting and so obviously NOT real laughter! Take them away. People aren't that ignorant to be fooled by them anymore.

8 out of 10 cats is a game show in which two teams answer questions linked to opinion polls answered for by the general British public. Hosted by the terrific Jimmy Carr, it features Sean Lock and Dave Spikey (both also brilliant) as the team captains, and a host of famous faces to be the other team members. The comedy comes thick and fast, especially from Lock and Spikey, with regular quips from the guests, most of which are surprisingly funny! With a host like Carr, and team captains who know what they're doing, this programme is an absolute treat and should not be missed.

This programme has become one of my favourite comedy game shows, up there with Have I Got News For You, Shooting Stars, and Never Mind the Buzzcocks. Don't Miss!

Most shows up until the recent series are pretty good. Jimmy Carr and Sean Lock in particular. However, it has been utterly ruined with the introduction of Rob Beckett as a captain. Now about as funny as pulling teeth, giant shiny teeth at that. No wonder the viewing figures are through the floor. Won't last long now I wouldn't think unless they get shot of Beckett.

The headline says it all. Seven comedians + 1 laugh track = not funny
