8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown

8 Out Of 10 Cats does Countdown is and will always be, one of my favorite quiz shows.

It is so funny, each episode in a different way, some more than others, but they never fail to make me giggle.

Jimmy Carr does a great job as host, and still manages to stay funny and quick to comment. Jon and Sean are both some of my favorite comedians, they are always very clever and very funny, and actually fairly good at countdown, which is quite nice.

Last but not least: the format. The general format of Countdown really hits the spot with me. Sitting at home, trying to get a better word than they do, is so much fun.

All in all a great show!

I like it when Jimmy Carr laughs at his own jokes. Her her herrrrrrr

As far as comedy gameshows go, this is one of the best out there. The rules of Countdown are stretched enough if not broken for some of the comedians playing the game. The regular panelists are always quick witted and hilarious, whether it's outright jokes or some skits. It's bound to get a few laughs, a highly amusing way to spend a Friday night. Jimmy Carr has some of the best panelist intros in British comedy, especially when the other panelists can dish out some of the most savage comebacks and put downs. They manage to maintain a consistent level of back and forth so it never becomes tiring or overdone.

Great combo of a panel show and a game show,both aspects of the show works well with a great cast but.... There is one huge negative with this show and that's Joe Wilkinson. I can't stress enough how terrible this guy is, he's so cringeworthy that I dread every second he's on and he almost drains the life out of a great show.

Its a great show BUT the long winded story telling moments usually from the person next to susie is annoying, cant remember how many times i have skipped that bit, other then that, amazing show.
