    It was always well worth staying up for
    I remember tuning in to watch this show every week and always enjoyed doing so because it was such a great show to watch. I enjoyed watching the music videos that they played as well as the stand up comedians they featured every week and I thought that Rita Sever was a lovely and very cordial host.
