The best panal show in Britain right now and has been for some time, maybe even ever.
There's no political bias, preaching or agenda. It's just clean family fun, that everyone can enjoy (The swearing got toned down after the first 2 series and a time slot change).
I'm in my 30s and i love it my Grandad is in his 80s and loves it, my Mother and partner (who normally just enjoys football, football hooliganism and films about football hooliganism) loves it and my little sister who's 12 loves it. That's a lot of different generations and types of people with vastly different interests who enjoy the show, so it's always worth a try (If you want a sample search on YT for the Kevin Bridges buying a horse story).
I think replacing Angus Deaton with Rob Brydon was a master stroke, Him, Lee and David bounce off each other so well. So even if your not a fan of the guests or don't know who they are, you can still enjoy it because of those 3.
The only quibble is that it's too short, if they made an XL version like QI do (i know there's usually an extra episode with unseen stories, but there must be so much more) then I doubt there would be any complaints.
They've pretty much got the format bang on now, it used to be a lot faster paced but the last 5 series (maybe more) have been right on the money. The fact I'm a huge David Mitchell fan makes this a much watch for me, so idnyou were a fan of Peep show (everyone should be!!!) Or any of his other work, then it's worth watching just for his involvement.
This show along with 'This Time with Alan Partridge' & when a new series of 'Inside No 9' comes out are the only reasons I still have the iPlayer installed, (I don't watch TV live, it's so laborious wading through the rubbish to get to what you want) and unless there's a new series of the office or extras i don't see that changing anytime soon.
