Amazing!

Really enjoyed that tonight.
I thought Jon was great tonight with his 9 letter words...

Rachel was looking well tonight.

Can't believe Jon didn't spot sexigonad as the 9 letter word!

Patty O Furniture

Finally Sean Locke wins a show, Jon was trying too hard on the 9 letter shows.

Daire was funny, 4G EE, nuff said

Loved the show- Sean Locke already said in an interview that he doesn't actually really like doing the show because Jon always wins so it's kind of pointless!

I miss the normal show sometimes but either way it's always good craic.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

It's back again tonight for another run of episodes.
Christ if you're not paying attention to the Channel 4 schedule regularly you wouldn't know whether it was coming or going.

Basq

^ Yep, only reason I knew it was back was because '8 Out Of 10 Cats' was back for a new series on Monday, and Jimmy Carr mentioned it at the end.

I was using the Sky+ app to record The Last Leg and I noticed it was on. Weird that it's so broken up.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

It really is blink and you'll miss it.
I don't really follow the regular 8 Out of 10 Cats anymore, although I used to back in it's early years - I probably should get into it again.

I honestly think Sean Lock & Jon Richardson are two best team captains they've had.. so well worth checking out!

It's just one of the shows that fell by the wayside a couple of years ago because of where I was living (didn't have a TV) and had been having problems with 4oD at the time. Might start watching the current season now that I've got access to Sky+ again.

Caught up with this over the last few months, the regular show and countdown episodes. Joe Wilkinson is a great PA, some hilarious stuff!

I am really enjoying the series although it is a bit annoying how Jon is deliberately messing up the word games to allow Sean to be competitive.

Rachel really killed Jimmy in the last show when he was having a go saying at her saying what is the point in doing mathematics and she replied that it is good for doing sums and taxes!

Mars Bar

I remember the episode they did right after Jimmy's tax fraud came out. It's the best episode of the whole series IMO. Jimmy takes it like a champ, to be fair to him.

Either I'm in a ridiculously good mood this evening, or that was the best one yet.

My face hurts from laughing.

Basq

The alternative 30-song second song was hilarious!

Only downside is I'm a big fan of Peter Serafinowicz but 'abdicates' got old quick.

Shame it's over now, for another few months anyways (presumably).

Who knows, could be back in a few weeks.

Basq

Hope so.. but seeing how the regular '8 Out Of 10 Cats' is back for a new series and Carr is starting his new tour in a new weeks - there's be less available time to film I'd say.

Meangadh

Yeah Jon Richardson is also going on a pretty extensive UK and Ireland tour so won't be much filming done.

I really want to know what that music was Sean had, was stuck in my head all day today! Hilarious!

The show never fails to put a smile on my face.

I have that on my sky+ box, its hilarious to watch when nothing else on, you could see straight away his demeanour when walking on & saying:

'Welcome to 8 out of 10 Cats a show about opinion polls, surveys, statistics & this week, i'm guessing ME'

He doesnt contribute much but everyone loves a bit of eye candy.

It sounded like a remix of "Whiskey in the Jar" to me. At least the opening of it anyway.
