Jimmy Carr is funny but not as overly offensive as his stand up (3 more)
Most of the time the panelists can make you laugh without resorting to offensive mundane jokes
The Countdown aspect is a lot of fun to watch
Jon Richardson just rolls with the punches

Bloody Hilarious
I don't really know what to compare the show to.
It's a comedy show that takes on the aspects of the much beloved, but quite boring show 'Countdown'.

Everything about it works, in my opinion. It's light-hearted, there are various guests - many make multiple appearances, and the laughs are constant!

Humour is subjective, yes. But, I urge anyone to give it a go, you might just love it.

I like this storyline as it's intriguing, fresh and it can hold your interest (0 more)
That's it guys, getting better.
I don't feel the acting is as forced as it is in new moon and there are some funny moments that seem more natural than with previous attempts with humour (with Jacob it's still stupid but I guess you have to think of him as a 16/17 year old boy which he is supposed to be).
The fighting bits in it are cool especially since it's the first real action you see in the saga.
Watching it now, besties Edward and Jacob are having a cosy chat in a tent so I best go and carry on watching!! #teamedward #manimsad

Spider-Man: Far From Home is another slam dunk for Tom Holland’s web-slinger. With a script that perfectly balances humour and emotion, it may be the funniest MCU film yet, this is a film with massive re-watch value with lots of nostalgia and a fabulous cast. Nevertheless, the dodgy special effects do pull you out of the illusion at times and that just stops it from achieving a perfect five stars.

Stick around for two post-credit sequences in Spider-Man: Far From Home.

Book Rating
Deeply twisted parody/satire manages to be unpleasantly disturbing and consistently funny throughout. You kind of have to be familiar with the conceit of Scarfolk - a 'lost' town in the north of England, trapped in the 1970s and run as a brutally right-wing totalitarian dystopia - to get the joke here, but the recreation of the sort of useless filler that made up the bulk of children's annuals in the 1970s is brilliantly done. The inventiveness and attention to detail is consistently impressive, and most of the jokes connect - there's a combination of silliness, savage political satire, and League of Gentlemen style macabreness that certainly won't be to all tastes. Gets the balance between horror and humour just about right; very funny, but also undeniably disturbing.
