  • Gone downhill

    Don’t they listen back? Stupid sound effects, awkward laughter for non funny jokes. Charlie is terrible.

  • Sorry but you’ve lost me

    The new show is dreadful and I’m sorry for Charlie but he is no Richard Glover and lacks any of the spontaneity of the show. Charlie is entitled to put his own spin on the show to make it his but he has very big shoes to fill and it’s not working for me.

  • Real Let Down

    The new format of TGIF is terrible. It's taken a huge step backwards and misses the wit and true humour of the old version, most notably missing Tommy Dean. The new gameshow format with ridiculous sound effects just cheapens the show. And what's going on with the "dramatic" voice overs for each segment....urghhh. Just pitiful.

  • Should be renamed

    Never missed an ep of TGIF & gave 2025 a go but it’s lost its spontaneous, intelligent and quick witted joy. I’m a fan of many of the comedians but we see them all so often on HYBPA, Spelling Bee, Taskmaster. Missing Bec, Jean, Gary , Jennifer etc who we don’t get to enjoy as often. Richard and co. also knew they didn’t have to laugh over the top so much, that the jokes spoke for themselves.
