"Never Mind the Buzzcocks" is without a doubt my favourite game show. Mark Lamarr, Sean Hughes and Phill Jupitus are all brilliant, in particular Sean. Lamarr is the hilariously sarcastic host, with Hughes and Jupitus as the team leaders. The guests will often be the deciding factor of how good the actual episode is; ie: if the guest is willing to make a dick out of themselves, it'll be extra entertaining. The show is fast paced and intelligent, hardly ever slowing down. And most importantly, it doesn't take itself seriously.
