So, lately my YouTube comfort food has been “Pointless”, a UK quiz show with the chatty affability I know @dimsumthinking loves from UK panel shows, but also a devious gameplay. Players answer trivia questions with the least well-known (but still correct) answers.

So for “Beatles Top 40 Singles”, instead of “Please Please Me” you need to think more like “The Ballad of John and Yoko”. https://youtube.com/@pointlesstvuk?si=xDSgblNhi3EOjSEA

@invalidname @dimsumthinking Have you seen Qi? If not, check it out. More silly than a real quiz, but fun.

@atomicbird @invalidname yep and the elves do a great podcast

@invalidname UK panel shows in general are the best — once you get hooked, there’s no going back 😛 If you want quiz shows, then you might want to give “Richard Osman’s House of Games” a try too. I believe there are lots of episodes on YouTube …

But if you are looking for non-quiz shows, give “TaskMaster” or “Would I Lie to You” a try. Hilarious and we generally re-watch the seasons over and over when we run out of stuff to watch 🙂
