Is anyone watching this?

Its not great to be honest, generally I watch it on 4od but only the bits Charlie Brooker is in. He's funny, Jimmy Carr is ok and David Mitchell is a little bit dull.

My question is, why oh why is Lauren Laverne (i think thats her name) in it? In comparison to the other three she looks totally lost and is very very unfunny. Is it simply because they needed a woman?

Yes.

I like it. Agreed about Lauren Laverne though.

The show really is becoming a lot better, it took the Daily Show 4 years to get it right so in just a few short weeks to get this good is a sign of things hopefully to come.

Always kind of dread Lauren's stuff compared to the other guys material but its getting better.

take everything

On paper it sounds promising, but from what i've seen it seems kinda derivative, almost tired.
Hopefully it improves.

Enjoyable show. I do agree about Lauren Laverne though...waste of space.

I'm really loving the show.

Lauren Laverne isn't great but she's more so there to do a job I think as opposed to be one of the main acts. Mitchell, Carr & Brooker are the main guys and she's just there to host the bits where they're all involved I guess so as not to give someone "top billing".

Some of her individual sketches are a bit meh, but she's good enough as a presenter and keeping the other three looking good.

I think Charlie Brookers bits are fantastic, his rant 2 weeks ago about the iPad 2 was wonderful and his bit on Prince Andrew last week was hilarious too.

Jimmy Carr's sketches are getting funnier as the weeks go on.

Generally, I think its getting better as the weeks go on.
