The 1% Club

I greatly enjoyed Season 1 with Patton Oswalt as tge host. Now in season 2 the have a new host Joel McHale. If I wanted to watch Johnny Knoxvilles twin, I would watch Jackass. FOX, I enjoy the show, but Joel needs to go.

You had an epic season and success with the show. With the return starting June 10, 2025. The host has no contestant personality. It was a mix of watching Jane Lynch and Johnny Knoxville. The host's personality was very disappointing and not appealing at all. If this continues through the second season, it will the finally and end of the 1% Club game show. From a concern fan.

This is a show for people who like quiz shows. Unlike The Chase or The Tipping point, it doesn't require you to have a really board general knowledge. The questions on this show need you to use your common sense and logic. There are questions that you can immediately see the answers, but others you have to think out of the square. Sometimes, it's almost a trick question, so you need to make sure you read the questions thoroughly and carefully. It is intense at times as you only get 30 seconds per question. Although, there have been times you will find questions that it's really easy that only a small percentage of the population got right and vice versa.

Lee Mack is the perfect host. His jokes and banners with the contestants in between the questions are entertaining.

Absolutely love this programme. Great format, well presented and produced. Very inclusive, as everyone can give it a go! Fantastic entertainment! Loads of fun to play as a family at home. What about an 'app' version?!

ITV's latest game show off the production line, and actually this wasn't half bad.

In Lee Mack you have a host that can actually give the contestants a bit of lip back, and the format isn't needlessly complicated (hi 'Limitless Win').

It's a bit slow, and won't be for everyone, but I enjoyed what I saw and hope it does well.

The best (and most controversial) thing about this show is that the questions test actual intelligence (cognitive abiltiy). They are not based on what you learned in school and they have no cultural bias. It does test your ability to think quickly which often makes people nervous, but that's actually good practice for the real world.

I've started watching the show with my kids (of varying ages) and we write our answers down on pieces of paper during each question. The key to making it fun is we don't make fun of anyone who got it wrong, but we discuss the PROCESS of thinking it through and arriving at the right answer. This definitely is helping reduce test taking anxiety (because school questions don't have a click ticking) and improve preparedness for standardized testing (SAT and PSAT) which test some of the same skills.

Intelligence is brain speed, just like running is physical speed. Denying that is just denying reality. I'm not the fastest runner, but that doesn't mean that running is biased.
