There's something so comforting about Spicks and Specks, I'm not sure exactly what it is, but you always know what you're going to get with it. You know you're always going to laugh and you're always going to learn something. And I used to love nothing more than cuddling up on the couch every Wednesday night with my boy friend, watching this show and laughing so hard that it hurt.
It's always informative, original, clever and most of all, it's dam FUNNY! Adam Hills is just great as the host (probably the best and most down-to-earth quiz show host in Australia), and the two Team Captains Myf Warhurst and Alan Borough are equally funny and indeed, VERY knowledgeable about music.
Ross Noble, Frank Woodley, Colin Lane and Hamish Blake are my four favorite frequent panelists, but of course there have been many, many other amazingly memorable ones.
I just adore this show and I very much admire Myf and Alan and all the guests who can get some of these VERY hard questions right, as I'm shocking at it! :)

Every week on Wednesday night i just cant wait for spicks and specks. It has to be the best music quiz show i have ever seen. What makes it different is that its so relaxed. They don't mind getting off topic and ramble on about crap, but its always interesting and you find out so much that you never knew before. Adam Hill is such a charismatic host. Adam Borough is a huge memory bank of music history, and Myf is such a dark horse; she'll surprise you sometimes.
Every guest they have is such a treat, and all the regulars are great and they make you laugh so much.
Australia's best quiz show ever.

Sadly another case of pushing a reasonable format for too long,the forced jokes & even more forced overdone laughter has worn far too thin.Even the what the hell are they cackling about looks on international guests faces is becoming ever more apparent
Latest 2024 season has fortunately returned to a watchable 30 minute format but is still struggling to revive the fun of its initial run. Adam Hills always seems to be trying too hard and the sycophantic response from studio audience and panel a bit cringey. 'The Secret Song' puzzle always falls flat with delivery of clues throughout the show disruptive and unfunny for those of us merely watching from home. Upcoming artists and comedians we've never heard of before (in typical ABC fashion) is admirable but the current balance is in desperate need of some more established star power and personality. I turned off the overlong last couple of seasons so returning to 30 minutes is a definite improvement.
