Hypothetical

Seems like the guys on the show are having a nice time but really not enjoying it. Contrived, enineered and the opposite of what's it's meant to be.. competition between 2 teams? Sadly, not for me.

A pleasantly unpretentious Dave comedy vehicle where different comedians were asked hypothetical questions - Acaster and Widdicome are a fine hosting pair and there's a warm natural energy to it all with the kind of breathlessly joyful improv not seen since the days of Whose Line. It can vary depending on the guests but you can tell Widdicome and co have a lark putting the thing together and I always hold a particular personal affection for it because it's one of the few TV things I've ever seen recorded live which was a hoot.

I can see why some people wouldn't like this show, it's very random and crazy but in my opinion that's why it's so funny! There is always a great selection of comedians on it too!!

I absolutely love this show but it would be nothing without James Acaster! The man has me in tears every episode

While James and Josh are funny on other panel shows (would I lie to you, QI etc) Hypothetical just isn't funny and neither of them can raise this show to those levels. At an hour long it's actually painful waiting for a genuinely funny moment to happen. Gave it a go but have given up now, it's mediocre at best. The Dave channel really needs to try a lot harder to find a replacement for Taskmaster.
