Next, recreate 8 out of 10 Cats!
That’s all over my YouTube recs. It’s good?
Yes. It's a comedy panel show based on survey results and statistics. There's also a crossover called 8 Out of Ten Cats Does Countdown where the cast is on Countdown (a math and crossword show that's the UK's Price is Right.)
I just watched the8 out of 10 Countdown show, didn't realize there was also a panel show. (I did know there is also a real Countdown gameshow, but I haven't watched it). We had a discussion about it several years ago. It's hosted by Jimmy Carr, who I love, and has some wacky returning characters. The gameshow is a thin thread to pull along the jokes and skits throughout the show. The contestants are mostly comedians. The Vanna White role is filled by a PhD in Mathematics who is like a sexier Rebecca Lowe, she is really funny and cool. If you watch British comedies, you will see familiar character actors who play the zany bit character in every show. It's a lot of fun, but not much of a gameshow.

I have enjoyed 8 out of 10 cats does countdown but I'll be honest I cannot tell what the hell is going on most of the time.

Agree about the sexy math chick.

I can't watch the vid right now but general question... is this sports knowledge-heavy?

About 15% of the questions will be about sports

The test game last night had 1 or 2 sports related topics. I wouldn't say it was heavy at all.

And considering BSF and I got a college basketball question, you don't have to have a deep sports knowledge. It's more about making connections than having a deep trivial knowledge. The team element is important, as I don't think I would have gotten anything in the first two rounds without bouncing off of BSF's ideas.

I just watched the video of the real show, and holy fuck were those questions impossible! Some where British specific, but compare that to anything on American TV. Jeopardy is like a word search compared to that. I'd love to see that show put on American TV. The general public would HATE it so much.

I'm in.

I like cats. I'm in.

Also I'm up for teaming up with anyone who will have me but fine with sticking with Syb if that was the plan.

Totally worth it for the Brit with the bigg boobs reading sir mix a lot lyrics. I'd play but don't want to miss and mess you guys up. Weekday evenings kinda spoken for.

Posted: **Wed Jan 13, 2021 2:07 pm**

Weekdays are probably where it’s at. Should I put you on the backup list?

Posted: **Thu Jan 14, 2021 6:13 pm**

Yes I can make a one off backup. Post videos so I know how to play. Thanks

Posted: **Thu Jan 14, 2021 6:34 pm**

Assuming I am free, I'm in. We had night 2! of a hockey draft earlier this week.

Posted: **Thu Jan 14, 2021 8:26 pm**

2 spots left

Posted: **Thu Jan 14, 2021 10:35 pm**

I’ll play...my evenings are almost always free.

Posted: **Sun Jan 17, 2021 2:17 pm**

Still need one, and willing to do the practice game with 4 more people any night we can.

Posted: **Thu Jan 28, 2021 10:26 pm**

[+] spoiler: the Tampa Bay/Toronto Raptor Rays were too much for the LebronJames Hardens. n that would have worked so much better a month ago.

Episode coming tomorrow. Claim that last spot before everyone else sees what the “competition” looks like!

Posted: **Thu Jan 28, 2021 10:38 pm**

That was really fun. Thanks Ryan for putting it on, and Pruitt for leading us to victory.

You nailed that Super Bowl question.

Maybe we should be a tag team in the wrestling federation?

In for that, and teaming up here, if you can forget about me confusing Heart and Wilson Phillips.

Episode 1 - Exhibition Game (The RayJays vs. ummm, Team Texington?)

Apologies for not getting all the contestants webcams on the side - I'll see if I can expand that down a little next time.

This game went a little long due to some technical difficulties but you should definitely give it a watch to see what the questions are like. It may help you figure out how to pair up into teams. I'll give it a week or so to see if any more teams come together before I use the randomizer of doom.

Syb you wanna run it back or do you have your eye on a higher draft pick?

Posted: **Fri Jan 29, 2021 12:29 pm**

Gunpowder...you wanna team up?

Posted: **Fri Jan 29, 2021 1:08 pm**

Watching what I missed last night. I sorta had that potato chips answer. Sorry I wasn't there for it, Pruitt. I wouldn't have had "winning", but I did have Lay's after the Bacon Mac & Cheese answer. Might have said Canadian Lay's flavors.

Not sure why I didn't expect it, but Giff's Texas twang was stronger than I expected it to be.

Let's do it. Gotta come up with a catchy name to compete with the RayJays.

BTW, I only knew of Ray J Johnson because of the Simpsons, but how was this funny?

The Devil's Twosome is good.

Rare Giff endorsement of a twosome.
