I find SHOOTING STARS to be very very silly , and yet when it`s broadcast I somehow find myself settling down to watch it with a smile on my face even though I`m ashamed to admit it .
SHOOTING STARS is a game show with Vic and Bob the quiz masters and Mark Lamarr ( Later Will Self ) and Ulrika Johnson as team captains . But it`s not like a normal quiz show , this one is absolutely surreal with humour you`ll either love or hate . I fall into both camps: I hate it in public but love it in private .
A recent episode featured one of the most bitchy comments I`ve ever heard . On helping out guest Debbie Mcgee slide down a rope ( Don`t ask ) Vic shouted up to Bob " You can touch her breasts " . Quick as a flash Ulrika shouted " You`d have to find them first ! "
I`ll say no more

Shooting Stars i think is a fantastic and a funny programme quiz show to watch. Vic, Bob and George make me laugh especially George when he is acting like a baby when he has his baby clothes costume on. He's a baby, He's a baby. And when he bangs his drums. I think he is fantastic. I give the show 10 out of 10.
I recently wrote a review for scrubs stating it is the worst show I have ever seen, I stand corrected.
This has to be THE most unfunny show I have ever seen, even if the writing of the show was good (Its not, its obscene) the actors skill in delivering the unfunny jokes are so poor that even the most well written script would be ruined by there lack of talent.
I cannot fathom how this is a critically claimed show when the basis of it is failed celebrities answering questions that don't make sense and giving answers that they believe to be funny, while the audience looks on straight faced.
I think the main problem of the show is the utterly stupid content, it should not be classed as a comedy if even the audience rarely laugh at the poorly constructed gags.
I'm honestly telling you as a human being, do something else with your time, but don't even give this show a go, it is beyond description on how much of a searingly unfunny experience this was.
My hate for this show is so passionate that I about ready to plead to the BBC to cancel the show.
How it won anything or how anyone on this earth could find this un- witty, unfunny, poorly constructed piece of absolute trash funny, I cannot understand, I literally cannot grasp how someone could experience anything but pain watching this show.

Quiz show hosted by the outrageously funny Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer that obeys no conventional rules! Two teams undergo bizarre tasks in order to win a fantastic cash prize...of about 5 quid! This is quality entertainment-expect the unexpected. Guaranteed laughs are provided with bizarre rounds such as "The Dove from Above" and scores kept by George Dawes "He's a baby!". What this doesn't make sense? Then you've got to watch it to understand. (And you'll be lucky if ya do!)
We really wanna see those fingers!

Shooting Stars has got to be the most funniest game show I've seen. Reeves and Mortimer are so funny! They host the game show. I nearly wet myself when I watch them both.
Matt Lucas (George Dawes) is well, a baby, actually he is dressed like a baby and he keeps track of the teams scores. George Dawes can also be very funny, especially the episode on Shooting Stars when he dressed up as Elton John, I laughed and laughed for hours!
This is the best game show ever, watch it and laugh.
9/10.
